BREAKING: NIGERIAN SENATE APPROVES CREATION OF 12 NEW STATES!
In a landmark move aimed at deepening federalism and bringing governance closer to the people, the Nigerian Senate has passed the final reading for the creation of twelve new states across the six geo-political zones of the country.
This historic development follows an extensive nationwide consultation by the Senate Committee on State Creation, signaling a bold step toward equity, inclusion, and balanced development.
1. SOUTH WEST
Ijebu State – From Ogun State
Ibadan State – From Oyo State
2. SOUTH EAST
Anim State – From Anambra and Imo States
Adada State – From Enugu State
3. SOUTH SOUTH
Toru-Ibe State – From parts of Ondo, Edo & Delta States
Obolo State – From Akwa Ibom State

Amana State – From Adamawa State
5. NORTH WEST
Tiga State – From Kano State
Gurara State – From Southern Kaduna
6. NORTH CENTRAL
Okura State – From Kogi State
Apa State – From Benue State
This decision reflects the Senate’s commitment to fairness, unity, and national progress.
It is a long-awaited response to agitations for better representation, improved governance, and accelerated development at the grassroots.
The official gazette is expected soon.
A new chapter in Nigeria’s federal structure is about to begin.
