JUST IN: "NIGERIA 🇳🇬 GEO-POLITICAL ZONE BILL 2026
[1] As of October 1 2026, Nigeria’s six geo-political zones will become official and constitutional organs of government. This means that there will be four tiers of administration in Nigeria - Federal, Zonal, State and Local governments
[2] Nigeria will have six geo-political zones, with each being made up of seven states. Our constitution will prohibit the creation of any more states after these 42
[3] As part of this restructure, we will abolish the federal allocation regime and replace it with resource control under which states will remain the federating units. Revenue distribution will be as follows - States: 50%; Federation account: 20%; Geo-political zones: 15%; National trust fund: 15%. We shall gradually migrate towards this to achieve our targeted goal by 2040

[6] Every year, the chairman of the geopolitical zone will rotate among the six governors within it. A chief executive will be appointed to manage what will be a civil service structure

@chrisbey2021@Hemjayoh@arojinle1 I was and I know it. I know it's useless but I know it.
I think trade songs like that should be part of the curriculum
Mentioning numbers in Yorùbá is more complex and requires higher brainpower than in English, Hausa and Igbo.
Before you come for me, know that this is a fact. Numbers in English, Hausa and Igbo are in denary. They're just same 1 to 10 put in their respective place value. Numbers in Yorùbá will require you to add, multiply and subtract, just to call a number. It's complex.
For example, 777 in Hausa is dari bakwai da saba'in da bakwai. It loosely translates to 7x 100 + 7 x 10 + 7
In Igbo, it is narị asaa na iri asaa na asaa. It also translates to 7x100 + 7x10 + 7
In Yorùbá, 777 is
Mẹ́tàdínlọ́gọ́rin lé ní ẹ̀ẹ́dẹ́gbẹ̀rin. It translates to {(200 x 4 - (100)} + {(20 x 4 - (3)}
That's why it's complex for many people to grasp.
Trump just falsely claimed* they striked
Against a non existent Christian genocide.
I just hope Nigeria doesn't become "Congo: the story continues". ಥ‿ಥ
Looks like someone in Washington just updated the travel schedule.
"America First" has a way of becoming "Nigeria Next."
Soon we'll probably start hearing urgent calls for "democratization," "protecting democratic values," and "supporting civil society".
Was in my backyard when a 'star' started moving & getting bigger 👀
Thought: meteor. PANIC 😭
Plot twist: it was an interstellar ship
Aliens picked me up with a smaller jet into the main ship
Now I'm 0.77 light years from Earth w/ other humans
SOMEONE HELP 🆘!
@UltimateMinds24@DanielRegha It depends on location oh.
This might be true for someone on a busy Lagos roadside(I've seen this)
Its not like that in Ogun(also observed) not to talk of Ekiti
Nigerians are Extremists in everything
Religion - Extremist
Tribal Bigotry - Extremist
Politics - Extremist
Once they like something there is no room for a rethink. They completely extract their brains and dump them in a bin so they can't recover from it.
The person who supports Peter Obi is equally as Extremist as the person who supports Tinubu, there is no room for conversation, no reassessment.
And to each of them, they are doing the right thing and can kill people for it.
But watching them both independently, they are both doing the wrong thing with so much conviction and authority.
Both the man who believes Peter Obi is the solution to the Nigerian problem and the man who wants Tinubu to finish eight years in spite of the evidence of poor governance are equally mad people.
The both of you are mad people.
