12 state system is not feasible there was a reason more states were created. More States were created to curb marginalization.

Ebonyi people used to complain about being marginalized that development wasn't reaching them.

Rivers people especially the ikwerres were extremely marginalized under the old rivers state by the Ijaws before bayelsa was created.

Same with akwa ibom/cross rivers. It was marginalization of akwa ibom people by cross rivers that turned lots of them into house maids back in the days

Coldie:

We have 6 geopolitical zones in Nigeria the only regions demanding restructuring is SS and SW do u think it will work?

DMerciful:
The geopolitical zones are zone and not regions.The geopolitical zones are unconstitutional! Why are you lying to yourself that SE and middle belt are not demanding for restructuring.

NaijirianKing:
Aworis will finally have independence!!!

protests:
Which leaders? Like this one? No more leaders, belle is talking.

Coldie:

We say we no want restructuring is it by force, when we wanted it they called us names, enemies of Nigeria etc now we say we no want again e become fight see o

Merimental:
dis must be d elite fraction sanely speaking.

d uneducated bigot, tribalistic quota system bunch will counter attack der brodas opinions soon.

Rugaria:
If the north leads the so-called restructuring process to fit their grand design again, the rest of the country should object. What I have learnt from all that is going on is that the socalled north gets away with all sorts of evil , simply because the rest of the country is docile. The lopsided state and local government structures in place today were all whimsically designed by northern army officers to favour the north to the detriment of the southern part of the country especially the east. They have more states, more local governments, more allocations, more senators, more....., it's endless ! Now, they are fearful that after Buhari, with the trends of political events, a real restructuring might happen, and they want to quickly effect changes to guarantee nothern domination for another century. This is wrong! It's either everybody is treated equally going forward, or the whole country should expire..

Misterdhee1:

You didn't answer my question o. Why is SE scared of staying alone? Aren't you guys able to take full controk of your "resources"and" finances,"like many of you make us to believe anymore?

Coldie:

SE is not demanding for restructuring, speak for ur region

You're a lone voice in the wilderness.

Coldie:

How does the SE affairs concern u?

When we said we wanted it weren't u guys the ones call in us Ipob. U guys have succeeded in silencing us. So our verdict is that the status quo must continue.

We don't want where we will say our mind again and same u people from the west will call us ipob.

We patriotic citizens of the SE say no to restructuring

Coldie:

Those people don't know what they are saying.

Its ignorance that's disturbing them.

Igbo's with brain like me are few in igbo land

gidgiddy:


Theres no problem with this except that we Igbos are going to insist that all Igbo speaking people be put in the Eastern Region. This means that Igbanke in Edo state, Anioma in Delta state, Umuezeokoha in Benue state and Ikwerre, Ekpeye, Ahoada, Asa all Igbo speaking people in Rivers state be added to the present South East to make the Eastern Region.

obiekunie2:


my brother i beg to disagree with you.

we are not going to force anybody to be among us.

any group desirous of being on their own are free to do so.

chris51:



Very tall dream

Dminister:
You are claiming people that are not Igbo. Go and read about the people of Ikwere. They are from Edo state and not igbo, Igbo language only influenced their patrilineal language because Igbo people dominated the ikwere people land... Igbanke people also had similar experience the reason they speak Igbo.

Ahamefuna0001:


They should be the ones agitating and not the other way round.

The damage has already been done, let them rectify it. I hate seeing Igbos been labelled land grabbers. We're bigger than that

Misterdhee1:

When the stakes are down, hope you know una voice for that side is in the minority as usual? Best of luck antagonizing the overdue call for return to regionalism.

gidgiddy:


The problem with this narrative is that nobody managed to tell us how those from Edo have Igbo surnames. Did Igbo also dominate them to point of forcing them to drop their ancestral surname and adopt Igbo surnames? Amaechi, Omehia and Wike are surnames of past and serving Ikwerre Governors of Rivers and those names are Igbo. How did Igbos get their forefathers to abandon their ancestral Bini surnames for Igbo?

Coldie:

We have 6 geopolitical zones, 2 "SS and SW" at demanding for restructuring while the other 4 are against it, who here is the minority my friend?

Gordieshegz:



You have rightly spoken bro.
A better option will be true federalism where the present state structure controls its resources.

LivingSage:
12 States is NO NO.
How many states were in the South when Gowan created the 12 states? No, we can't accept such.


If there'll be any Restructuring, it should be Regional Government.

Let's go back to Regional Government, also dissolve this current 2 Chambers.

Finally, Our constitution needs to be rewrite to overhaul the inequalities in those institutions

Misterdhee1:

You watch and see now

IGBOSON1:


Anything created by the sneaky muslim northern military hegemony should be dismantled! That would mean going back to the 4-regional structure, because it from there that rain started beating us! We go back to the 4-regional structure, and then start reorganising/restructuring things from there! Any attempt to listen to these crafty northern oligarchs would mean the south rolling over and accepting the criminal advantages they stole for themselves via the military!

Some people think they’re smart!

Things have changed. The same ND cannot follow Eastern region even if regional is to be created.

You and who?

Imagine fighting another person's battle. Are you okay?


This Ipob of a nonsense has finished most of you beyond redemption and reasoning.

Terrorist organization.

Sad thing is, it’s the opinion of the latter that counts and usually carries the day!
