- The Nigerian Senate and House of Representatives have recently begun the debate to create new states in Nigeria
- Historically, all the states created in Nigeria were founded during the military regime, and it would be a success for the 10th National Assembly if it created one
- Meanwhile, the list of the states created by the military has been compiled, including their years of establishment and how they were created
Since the beginning of President Bola Tinubu’s administration, the National Assembly appeared to be working towards making a significant change in the constitutional amendment process, particularly the creation of new states in the southern part of the country.
Though there has been a constitutional amendment since the return of democracy in 1999, the 10th assembly seems to be making moves for a big difference and setting big records with the agitation for creating new states.
