This will be the worst thing that will eva happen to nigeria. imagine 1 ova 3% population frm kanu relocate to bayelsa. Frm governor to d least political office go b alhaji. Them for even request for d removal of country of origin... Note; removing state of origin is nt removing names of individuals or the religion. I smell sentiments, hate and, war just like in the cases of nassarawa and pleatue states respectively. Also note that some person in Nigeria do not practice birth control while others practice. they both will tell u it is against there religion. I will urge everyone to think ova it... I see WAR, I mean WAR in respect to this issue if implemented. 5 Likes |

This was among the campaign promises of PMB and was applauded by all and sundry.... Will go a long way in forestalling the seemingly intractable disease of tribal bigotry which our politicians leverage upon while canvassing for votes..... I don't see them scrapping it though... 6 Likes |

Selfish man, its better to maintain the state of origin cos Nigeria has never been divided like this. What we need is resource control and how to find solution to ethnic bigotry. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Which region Except minority will accept? I hope he is not speaking now cos of oil Yoruba man will always want to cling to his omonile status, Igbo man will never allow another tribe to rule him in his land an Housa man will not consider some other religion person (infidel) a place in his land. 3 Likes |

This will be a welcome development. But our senators from the north will not vote for that. Imagine what will happen in admission and civil service employment? Imagine everyone has an equal chance of employment... How many northerners will be in good Universities, civil service and the army? Removal of state of origin means removal of catchment area. I remember when I took federal common entrance exam... I scored 456 over 600 still I was not invited to the interview because I was from Anambra state. People from Sokoto, Adamawa and some other state were invited with scores as low as 100. How fair is this.? When I wrote jamb for uni... I had 297 to be admitted. But my fellow students from some of these catchment state just need to score 180. How fair is this..? I support the removal but the issue has lingered for a long time. State of origin creates uneven and unequal opportunity 10 Likes 1 Share |
