The point in Nigeria's state creation is that the South East has the least number of states. So, for the sake of equity and fairness, SE need one more to close ranks with other zones and finally expunge the feeling of marginalisation which the Igbos have felt since the war ended. Why not dissolve the state structure and go back to the present six regions or post-Independent four regions? The South East receive the lowest cumulative FAC allocation of all the geopolitical zones. If equity is the basis for Nigeria's Federal Character and existence, then SE needs one more state. There is no justification for the argument about landmass because Lagos is not the biggest in terms of landmass. Also, there is a country in West Africa known as The Gambia. The fact about its landmass and size of population did not stop the colonial masters from giving it the status of an independent nation state.
