…Anioma State is not just about redrawing boundaries

Senator Ned Nwoko, representing Delta North senatorial district, has given an insight to why Anioma is one of most economically viable option for state creation in Nigeria.

He also addressed misconceptions surrounding the movement for Anioma State’s creation.

The senator spoke in a live X Space session, on Sunday.

He reaffirmed his commitment to the cause.

“There’s a clear distinction in culture, history, and identity that sets Anioma apart… We have the economic foundations and resources that make us one of the most viable options for state creation in Nigeria”, he said.

Nwoko emphasized Anioma’s cultural uniqueness, economic capability, and strategic geographical location, clarifying that the push for statehood is rooted in fairness and equity.

“Our call for the creation of Anioma State is not just about redrawing boundaries; it’s about recognising the legitimate desires of a people who have greatly contributed to Nigeria’s development”, he said

He maintained that the establishment of the new state would not undermine any existing states but rather enhance Nigeria’s federal structure.

“The creation of Anioma State would strengthen our federation, providing an avenue for further national development without detracting from any other region”.

As Chairman of the Senate Committee on Reparations and Repatriation, Nwoko has been a vocal advocate for Anioma’s recognition as a distinct state.

He had reiterated that Anioma would thrive within Nigeria’s federal structure once established, becoming a self-sustaining entity.

The live session, part of The Nigerian Political Pulse Check series, attracted thousands of listeners from both within and outside the country.
