Finally: Confab endorses creation of Ijebu, Aba, 17 other states


The National Conference  has  endorsed the recommendation for additional states for the South-East.
The delegates also approved the creation of 17 new states nation-wide.
The National Judicial Institute (NJI) venue of the conference erupted in celebration. Soon yesterday, after they voted in favour of the recommendation of the Committee on Political Restructuring and Forms of Government, delegates left their seats and exchanged pleasantries.
For once, delegates from the other five geo-political zones joined their South-East counterparts in celebrating what many described as a landmark victory for the Igbos. Many delegates repeatedly exclaimed: "History has been made. Today, justice has been served. We have won. It's a new day for us."
Some of the states recommended include Adada, Aba, Savannah, Njaba-Anim, Gurara, Ogoja, Etiti, Anioma, New Oyo, Ijebu and Orashi.‎
Am so happy that ijebu is part of it, this should have happened a long time ago!
