Lagos, 22 others collected N586.6bn IGR in 2014 – NBS

The National Bureau of Statistics on Wednesday released a snapshot of the Internally Generated Revenue profile of 23 states of the federation for the year 2014. The bureau stated in the report, a copy of which was obtained by our correspondent in Abuja, that Lagos State recorded the highest IGR of N276.1bn in the period under review.The N276.1bn generated by Lagos last year was N108.1bn or 28.1 per cent lower than the N384.2bn, which the state earned as IGR in the 2013 fiscal period.Further analysis revealed that the amount that Lagos earned in 2014 was also 47 per cent of what all the other 22 states collected as IGR in the same period.

The report stated that while the figures for the other 13 states were still being expected, Rivers State, with a total IGR of N89.1bn, followed on the revenue chart.The N89.1bn earned by Rivers State represented an increase of N1.19bn when compared to the N87.91bn for 2013.

Others are Akwa Ibom, with N15.6bn; Anambra, N10.4bn; Bayelsa, N10.9bn; Enugu, N19.2bn; Katsina, N6.2bn; Kogi, N6.5bn; Ekiti, N3.4bn; Osun, N8.5bn; Oyo, N16.3bn; and Imo, N8.1bn.
The rest are Niger, N5.7bn; Plateau, N8.2bn; Zamfara, N3.1bn; Delta, N42.8bn; Benue, N8.2bn; Bauchi, N4.8bn; Kaduna, N12.7bn; Katsina, N6.2bn; Kebbi, N3.8bn; Nasarawa, N4.05bn; Ogun, N17.4bn; Sokoto, N5.6bn and Zamfara, N3.1bn.

The report listed the 13 states that had yet to provide details of their IGR for 2014 as Abia, Adamawa, Borno, Cross River, Ebonyi, Edo, Gombe, Jigawa, Kano, Kwara, Ondo, Taraba and Yobe.

How can Kano not generate enough IGR to power itself amazes me.
Were each citizen to be captured in the tax network Kano shouldn't go broke.
Aside, if all the manufacturing concerns pay too, more than enough will accrue to the State government.
Something is wrong with these figures and government

Among the top 10, Enugu state is the best...
Why is Enugu state receiving the smallest FG allocation than the other 9 states, whereas it generates more than expected..

I thank God for my state and the governors that we have and had had. I can always beat my chest and pump my fist as I owe allegiance solely to my state. Anambra a plaace to be, and a place to wish to be when far away from.

Anambra obodo Chukwu goziri agozi.

O wee gi iwe manye ihu na nsi aboki. Daalu.

Yet there's hopelessness and poverty everywhere....the politicians spend the money on themselves, families and their friends while the people cheer and give them awards and titles. The revenues are generated mostly through double-taxation and not through employment-yielding initiatives otherwise these states will also be the highest-paying and highest employers of labors in Nigeria. The black man should really sit back and question the content of his brain.... if you give oyibo that money, those states will look like a mini-haven...grin

These figures can go higher if states stop relying so much on federal allocation. Most states have natural resources that can be tapped to generate revenue.

Some states have abundance of fruits. I expect those states to set up a juice company or something that would generate income from those fruits but instead, these fruits are harvested by the local people, sold at very cheap prices and the leftovers are left to spoil and decay. It is a waste of resources.

Some other states have beautiful places that can serve as tourist attractions. I expect those states to develop these areas so that it can be a destination for tourists and people who want to go on a vacation and need a nice and natural environment to spend their vacation.

These are just examples of how states can generate revenue.

I always wonder why our governors and leaders don't see these opportunities that abound for revenue generation.

"INTERNALLY" generated revenue not federal allocation.
