Nigerians celebrate as lawmakers propose the creation of 31 new states in Nigeria
The House of Representatives Committee on the Review of the 1999 Constitution has proposed the creation of 31 additional states, which would increase Nigeria’s states from 36 to 67 if approved.
Deputy Speaker Benjamin Kalu read the proposal during Thursday’s plenary, listing the new states across different geopolitical zones.
In the North-Central, the proposed states include Benue Ala, Okun, Okura, Confluence, Apa-Agba, Apa, and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja. The North-East will have Amana, Katagum, Savannah, and Muri, while the North-West is set to get New Kaduna, Gurara, Tiga, Kainji, and Ghari.
In the South-East, the proposed states are Etiti, Adada, Urashi, Orlu, and Aba. The South-South will have Ogoja, Warri, Bori, and Obolo, while the South-West is expected to get Toru-Ebe, Ibadan, Lagoon, Ijebu, and Oke-Ogun/Ife-Ijesha.
For the proposal to take effect, it requires approval from two-thirds of the National Assembly, affected State Assemblies, and Local Government Councils.
