All the Geographers or will I say experts in Geography should come on board,let’s analyze the map of Nigeria critically First of all, I decided to study the map of Nigeria and noticed a lot of discrepancies in the sharing formula I now decided to refrain myself from stating my findings not to look bias, prejudice or been beclouded with sentiments I decided to throw it up to the house for them to look critically and do their findings, because i don’t know the motives or yardsticks they used to come with what we have as the political structure of Nigeria Below are two maps. One of the map is in abridged state or will I say divided politically while the other is not Now comes the question? If Nigeria map is a Cake and you are been called to divide it equally In all sincerity how would you divide it? Lalasticlala please push it to front page for wider discussion.thank you

It's not just the map only,everything about Nigeria is deceitful ! Do you believe that Kano comes anywhere near Lagos in terms of population ? Yet,Lagos has 20 LGAs while Kano has 44 ! Which fraud is greater than that ? The biggest of all the deceits is that fraudulent paper they call "1999 Constitution". You wouldn't bother to read it any further as soon as you see the first lie - " We,the People......! 6 Likes 2 Shares |

@op, relax SE maybe a small land mass compared to other regions. But it a land flowing with milk and Hot. A soil that supports almost all crops, animals, mineral deposits, good weather, Forestry products,etc Unlike the vast Barren Sahel/ Sahara desert. There is a different between quality and quantity. 5 Likes |

All these was arranged to favour a particular tribe or region from the beginning. They had always been some sort of dirty scheming to gain political advantage over the south. Tell me, what has the Benue, Nassarawa, Kogi among other ethnic nationals in the middle belt have in common with the core north? Look at it very well, why all the killings in Benue if the Benue people mean anything to the real aclaim owners of the region. If not to displace them and give room for the fulani tribe to come in and occupy. The motives is, use them to get rubbost population figures, big land mass etc. while the benefit goes to the mainstream north. We all do understand the benefits, fat allocation to 19 northen states +FCT against 17 divided state in the south. In terms of election, the north decides who wins. I often laugh when some persons says the hausa/fulani are not clever, this guys are smart. They think 500years ahead. They may had engaged foreign consultant to have acheived this but that's smartness. Take for instance, if Orji Kalu is promised to succeed Buhari, he will yield to all the conditions that will be layed at the table by the north knowing fully that a block vote from the north is the decider in nigeria politics. In fact, he will even accept for Abia state to be ceeded to the north. That's our problem, greed. We've got the resources but sold it out like Esua and now turn out to bargain before getting anything. The likes of Zik, Awolowo and co. belives in the saying "education is power" but in nigeria, it is he who holds the gun that determines what happens. That north or huasa/fulani new this from the beginning so they dominated the military even as unschooled personnel. Today, what political influence has the like of Chinue Achebe, Wole Soyinka et al compare with the likes of Obasanjo, Buhari, IBB, Abacha etc. The damage done can never be redeem except we have a purposeful national discuss wich the 'smart' north having weigh what's at stake, are vehemently opposing it. What Ojukwu saw year back, the SW are just realizing it now. Unfortunately, the worst the south can do is a repeat of the 1967-1979 unfortunate event which to me is too expensive. The north on their part are not ready to compromise anything. 2 Likes 1 Share |

We also refrain from stating our findings till you tell us how you’d share the "cake". ![]() One observation though, the SE is not really all of the SE, and the SW has Kwara State carved out of it and joined to the NC. On a good & bad day Naija na scam, we all know dis already! 7 Likes |

There is no how you will have some South South states towards south-east of the South East region. The true arrangement of South East would have included Benue, Cross River, Akwa Ibom and Rivers according to the map. Note that all the other regions are not grouped based on language. So, why should the SE be based on language? There is what this arrangement is meant for. The political arrangements codenamed SE, SS, SW, NE, NC, NW were born out of the need to divide the original Biafran people and to isolate the Igbos from the rest. That is part of the master plan to ensure that Biafra will not rise again. 4 Likes |

ThinkSmarter: But you import most of your food? Over 60% of indigenes leave outside the SE. Where's the quality? |
Re: Geographers, Map Of Nigeria Is Deceitful by ThinkSmarter: 9:27am On Jun 12, 2021 |
naijapips02:We eat mostly fufu and garri from cassava, yam, rice and beans. We grow all these, though not in a commercial quantity. But the ones we grow sustains us. We only need extra imported rice . Beans,beef, onions,tomatoes, pepper, garden eggs and carrots from the North. Of which, those food from the North doesn't make up to 20% of our total food consumption. Yes about 40% of Igbos are outside southeast. We are hustlers and like every hustler, he is always ready to leave his comfort zone. Same way the Hausas are. There is no Town in southern Nigeria that you won't see Northern community. Same way there is no town/cities all over Nigeria and diaspora you won't see an Igbo man. That's is the spirit of enterprise and self reliance. Most of our people don't look up to the government back home and in the Federal level. Most civil service jobs in East are dominated by women. 2 Likes |

What Nigeria should adopt is regional govt of all sub ethnic groups.. ie Yoruba region, Igbo region, hausa region, ijaw region, etc looking at the map, it's not well defined |

TimFisher2: That's the simple truth. But, many people out of hatred for the Igbos which they can't tell why, will not allow their minds to reason out the truth. |
