I'm from Isuikwuato. Pls leave us in Abia State o. Why you wan join me with Ozara? Did they ask our permission or do an open debate? Creating a new south eastern state is good but not compulsory. There will now be fight on who becomes governor or senator and how it's shared. We are Abia and that's final. Leave us alone.

It's tinubu's choice to sign this bill wether you like or not. In essence of blaming him let him first of all take the right decision and see if people blame him or not.

Don't merely rant about it online. Go to your senators and register your grievances with them. Call on others in your local government and get them together do the very same. Call other people in other local governments to let them know they can do the same. The sponsors of the bill have no right to force this on the people. However, if the people do nothing, nothing will change. undecided

Creation of Etiti state is completely useless. Anioma is more reasonable but the best move in Nigeria today is to address corruption, insecurity and reduce the cost of governance.

Pls tell them. What is the connection between the creation of state in the Southeast and Anioma? Ned Nwoko and Co are just trying to be mischievous.

SE people should be thankful to PBAT for the support given to this bill.

What Nass can't dream while Ekweremadu was Deputy SP, what Nass can't initiate when Ihedioha was Deputy Speaker is what is been done during Emilokan regime.

It's not all time we criticise, we need to give credit when it is due so God won't cancel our expectations.

This is a big win for the SE people if it scale through

Then it happens when Benjamin Kalu is the deputy speaker.
Okay.

But the support has to go for the appropriate location between Imo and Anambra States that deserves a sixth state for the southeast according to the antecedents of state creation in the southeast area.
These Etiti State proposal areas have benefited from all the processes of state creation in the southeast which centred on those areas.
The 12 local government areas of Imo West Senatorial district alone naturally fit the bill for a sixth state in the southeast area.

They cannot use hammar to mix all these local government areas that had existed for decades in different states and mostly had no traditional linkages, to belong to one state. It's like creating a future chaos. That Orlu state proposal suits every thing about a state, even if the Anambra groups are not included.

Anioma State is better, Etiti state is a very useless idea. If President Tinubu can create Anioma State, I will start to Love Him as my President. That will be true justice for the SE

The last time states were created in Nigeria under military rule, the people didn't have a voice. This time the people have a voice and will have themselves to blame if they stand by and watch these criminals masquerading as political leaders carve up there local governments into states as they like. undecided

That's not true it must pass tinubu's desk first and if he doesn't sign it's now left for the national assembly to use its power to override the president if necessary

It's a good one anywhere, though, not our main problem actually.

they're other issues that are paramount And more challenging in the S/East, like, security issues and the unconditional realise of mazi Nnamdi Kanu, etc

Methinks, those three or so Reps proposing Etiti State are perverting the course for a sixth state for the southeast.
They know that that area of the southeast had benefited from all previous state creation exercises.
They know that the area between Imo West and Anambra south never benefited from state creation, and this area deserves the sixth state; and that people from this area of Imo West and Anambra south will never live to see Etiti State created as sixth state for the southeast.

Tinubu and the National Assembly cannot create a state
They cannot even create a single LGA.
that requires constitutional changes
They are deceiving them
State creation is a constitutional matter

24 state Houses of Assembly must also agree
How likely is that
Just make a list of which 24 states will agree to that

States that have not approve new LGAs in Lagos state since 2007?

NE and NW alone are 13 states if they say no that is the end that is assuming every other state says yes

Will SW states say yes given the relationship on ground

But not Etiti. NEVER!! Etiti is a fraudulent proposal.

How can we go to Ebonyi and Enugu states for the 3rd time to create new state in the southeast while Imo West and Anambra south are ignored?
