Your deflections are weak.

Why should the population growth of people living close to water be higher than those up North?

QuotaSystem:

Is there water scarcity in the North?

Is the bulk of agricultural produce not grown in the North?

Does water give you twins?

What’s your point?

You made the claim yourself:

I hope you are also aware that you can't argue a population growth of people close to water and people close to desert?

They were taught by the British that majority carries the vote .

In the national assembly, Senate, rep they don't check If the policy passed is good or bad .

If the majority accepts good if they reject then rejected.

Example: we want buhari to resign over failure
Those in favor say I iiiiii those against say neh nehhhhh the neh have it . Shikena.

That is why the north have been claiming they have population, as you can see this particular election exposed them .

The census that is coming next ,if you are in Nigeria make sure you partake because it's this census they use in determining if allocation or favors should be shared equally.

This census thing that has an effect on allocation baffles me.

For example an Igbo man that refused to travel to his home state during the election, but vote in his state of residence, will definitely travel back to his home state to be counted for census. Just to increase the population of his home state, because we know more population means more allocation.

Sad reality in Nigeria.

That’s where you’re wrong.

The North, where your rice, tomatoes, onions, peppers, carrots & other vegetables are grown; and supports the livestock that you eat daily, is by no means a desert.

You can never compare the growth rate of a polygamous population with a monogamous population. End of.

There are 2 types of census. De facto and De jure.
One counts only people at a particular location, the other counts everyone from that area even though you were not physically available on the day of census.

So which is Nigeria doing? Or do we take the both into consideration?

My friend I'm happy you want to talk normal.

Listen every geographical region in Nigeria produce the mentioned agricultural produce you just mentioned listen again in quote "EVERY"

There is a difference between a population that dived in fully into the venture just like every geographical region can sell spare parts .

In you assimilation you are talking about monogamous and polygamy that is children and wife factors and then I say you fail .

There is no desert in some geographical region in the south or west but you have that in the north.

Now pin that factor to the board .

In the polygamous growth did you consider the mortality rate and disease rate compared to other regions?

End of assimilation.

Back to reality the first census conducted caused a huge problem between the north and the south why ?

Population supremacy, why would the north open borders and count foreign entities as northerners if the population was to boast of ?

That’s not true. Not every region can grow every crop commercially due to differences in climate and soil types. You cannot grow palm trees in the North for example and you cannot grow onions or raise cows in the East to Trypanosomiasis disease caused by Tse-Tse flies. People delve into ventures where they have comparative advantages.

Fintiri:
In you assimilation you are talking about monogamous and polygamy that is children and wife factors and then I say you fail .

Not merely “children and wife factors” but the reality that you cannot combine the growth rate of a household with four wives with that of a single wife. In 2 generations alone assuming each wife has 2 kids and kid with 2 offspring, ceteris paribus; while the monogamous home would have just 8 individuals, the polygamous one would have 28 individuals. Do the math.

Fintiri:
There is no desert in some geographical region in the south or west but you have that in the north.

Like stated earlier, the North is not a desert area. Otherwise millions wouldn’t be spent yearly fighting desert encroachment.

QuotaSystem:


The North, where your rice, tomatoes, onions, peppers, carrots & other vegetables are grown; and supports the livestock that you eat daily, is by no means a desert.

Meanwhile there are areas in the south that suffer erosion and are not arable, to add to a small land mass.

Fintiri:
In the polygamous growth did you consider the mortality rate and disease rate compared to other regions?

End of assimilation.[/b]

Disease prevalence are specific to regions (certain diseases are more prevalent in certain areas; see attachment) while mortality is a reflection of the population load on inadequate primary healthcare which is also comparable across regions.

Fintiri:

You are peddling pedestrian tales and presenting them as facts. Provide empirical proof of foreigners being counted as Nigerians or forever hold your peace.

The growth rate of a monogamous population can never be compared to that of a polygamous one. It’s common sense.

Listen again I say every.

When I say every I mean every.

People choose what benefits them not what they know best .

Let me give you enugu as a case study.

Enugu is rocky and not fit for planting same as Borno spoil is not very good for plating.

Why did Borno succeed?

Government and man made efforts building irrigation and artificial water supplies for the goods .

You get it now ?

Tomatoes carrots anything anything at all can grow in Enugu if they decide to venture into it .

All it takes is seriousness and intervention.

Just like Iceland that survives and exports agricultural products even with the natural climate.

Have you been to Ada palms in imo state? If you have not please go and be enlightened about Nigeria and politics being played.

I guess you would have said this about killings in zamfara if sir Hamza did not expose why the idiots were on rampage.

Same thing is playing in imo .

Listen about your polygamy again in the north a man can decide to give birth to 49 children while in the south 2 children.

Advantage: how do you take care of them in the north to 25 years without a mortality and sickness compared to 2 .

Vvf is in what region in Nigeria presently?

Have you used your phone to check vvf in Nigeria and see the population that cannot vote because of that ? Can u vote close to someone with chronic vvf ?

Meningitis and leprosy what population will that affect?

The north I not a desert I did not say so . I said the north has vast desert compared to the south and west in terms of productive landmass of crops not natural resources they are fighting for .

For the erosion in the south listen crops and any agricultural products have what they call propagation/crop rotation.

When the period of erosion is gone you can plant it's everywhere

There were multiple military coups in Ghana, but no military head of state in Ghana created any state, which is why Ghana still practice Regionalism today

You sound very simplistic and pedestrian. We are talking about growing for commercial purposes (which requires competitive and comparative advantages) and not cultivation with pricey interventions just to prove a point.

Enugu soil will be suitable for cultivating certain crops like oil palm while Borno soil is good for commercial cultivation of many other crops including maize, sorghum, cowpea, sorghum, millet, sweet potato, rice etc. The point is that while you might be able to grow onions, tomatoes or carrots with expensive interventions in the East, you cannot grow it commercially as you will not be able to compete in the market for due cost of production. It’s not just a matter of “If they decide they want to do it”.

With regards to diseases, where is River blindness prevalent if not the South? What about Lassa fever? Urinary Tract Infection? You cannot argue with the fact that disease prevalence is region specific just like the vvf you mentioned.

I am glad you have admitted that the North that grows the bulk of agricultural produce in Nigeria is not a desert. You talk of mortality as if it is restricted to the North. There is no way you can compare the growth rate of a monogamous population with a polygamous one (no matter the conjectures) and it’s common sense.

Ironsi was a military ruler from the South, he created no State

Obasanjo was a military ruler from the South, he created no State

But every military ruler from the North, Gowon, Mohammed, Babangida, Abacha, with exception of Buhari, all engaged in State creation

So the question is why were Northerners embarking on state creation? What was the motivation behind this?

If agricultural produce can be raised in a little quantity it can also be raised in a commercial quantity irrespective of the geographical region except a desert
