Abia State Movement Advocates for Creation of Aba State in South East Nigeria

The Abia State Movement, led by Bonifac Okoro and Chief Theo Nkire, is advocating for the establishment of Aba State as the sixth state in the South East of Nigeria. They argue that the creation of Aba State will not cause the collapse of the current Abia State, emphasizing the economic potential and resources in both regions.

The movement highlights the untapped resources in Abia North and the need for economic viability. Despite concerns, they believe the creation of Aba State will enhance development without compromising the integrity of Abia State.
