Kwara state has been ranked second after Lagos in Nigeria in the latest Progress Report, titled ‘The State of the States’ released by Africa Report in its July/August, 2018 issue.
The Africa Report is an international publication of reference dedicated to African affairs, and is the guide used by decision makers to anticipate economic and political changes in Africa.
The publication is relied upon for the expertise of an independent editorial team in its surveys, sector reports and country focus published in each issue.
According to information available on the Africa Report website- www.theafricareport .com, the survey of Nigeria’s 36 states used fighting poverty, providing access to electricity, facilitating business and raising local revenue as indices.
In terms of Internally Generated Revenue per capita, Kwara ranks seventh out of the 36 states of the federation while it ranks tenth in the ease of doing business. The State also ranks tenth on the poverty index.
In terms of access to electricity, Kwara was ranked third and sixth in number of internet users in the country.
The summation of the indices put Kwara at second position in the progress report. The full report can be found on pages 22 to 26 of the July/August, 2018 edition of the Africa Report.
Responding to the report, Kwara state governor, Alh Abdulfatah Ahmed described Africa Reports’ ranking of the state as the second highest in the country as an affirmation of his administration’s reform programmes and an acknowledgement of its efforts to enhance the welfare, security and prosperity of all citizens and residents.
The governor pledged his preparedness to sustain the administration’s ongoing drive to build a prosperous and sustainable Kwara state for the benefit of current and future generations of Kwarans.

So why Bukola Saraki still complains of juicy appointments being denied Kwara ??

Saraki's boy is really doing a good job. kudos to kwarans!!!

Which Kwara that is ranking second in Africa? The same Kwara that I know that can't stand shoulder to shoulder with Abuja, Enugu, Kano, Portharcourt, Akwa Ibom, Calabar? Not to talk of of Cairo, Johannesburg, Tunis etc?


This report is hereby dismissed as sheer fallacy.

How much was paid by saraki and Ahmed for this ranking? joke of the highest order

The thing weak me

Saraki And The Propagandist PDP At It Again. I Can Bet My Left Ear That Kwara Wouldnt Make Any Objective And Fair List Of Top 10 States With Regard To Infrastructural Proficiency In The North, Let Alone NIGERIA.
WEHDONE PDP, Atleast ipob Pigs Can See Something To Masturbate About Today.

I think whoever wrote this was just practicing his article writing skills. Some places there haven't caught up with the 19th century yet, Kwara is one of the backward states I've ever set foot into. It's a pity to see people kept under the rule of one family.

If Kwara is developing faster than Cairo, then, Aba is doing better than Paris

Relax guys/ladies.
I am sure they mean second in North Central (Nigeria)

See Mido ooo .. you never know the power of brown envelope na hin dey make you yarn laidat...

Not even Lagos...Is there a mixup in the write up..Somebody pls explain.

So many illiterates here on Nairaland


Economic growth is not measured by the numbers of shops littered on the streets of a city but through standard of living, digital enterprise and so on


We're now in a modern era where traditional/mortar-brisk businesses have been replaced with electronic commerce

Many people are comfortably living in Kwara state


Let's be honest with ourselves



Saraki is the atomic bomb of this world war

Metuh:

Osun of debt What have you been smoking of late?

Go and check the infrastructure of the two state and come back to tell what you are smoking.

When it comes to debt, Osun is not owing more than any SS States, talkless of Lagos

tuniski:

On what?

Infrastructure
