Which kind deadly lie be this?

Okuda:
where are the investments?

Help me ask them ooo. giving useless statistics that we can't see with our eyes

Fast forward to this day, December 2020, the Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission (NIPC) has just reported that Kogi state has overtaken all states in the Federation including Lagos, to become Nigeria's top Investments destination for the third quarter of year 2020.

At least, You Op, you are intelligent enough to have added the bolded lest your stats or analysts is misinterpreted, but I doubt some douce won't misinterpret it anyway.

Oluboh:
I completely agree with this.
Yahaya Bello did a[b][/b] good job keeping Kogi open while others lamented over a disease with 99.8% recovery

Same with Ayade

Happiness32. Apologies to you Happiness32 for the former comment, i did not understand your Post and typed out of anger.
Your Analysis Is very obvious to any literate person though. Pls See my Signature.

Pointus Pilate, Supreme Court Governor, and other over-sabi should embark on another idiotic lock down! They think they are impressing or fooling anyone, well maybe the zombies!!!

Like I said earlier, and will keep saying... locking down any state or the entire nation is merely a recipe for chaos worse than what we saw during Endsars. Any governor or leader who tries it should be indicted by Hague. Nonsense!!!

How can this thread on Earth makes front page. Nairaland moderators has turn this forum to something else maybe politic. We have better threads with huge views wallowing up in their respective categories.

Are they really sure? Well, I do not believe in lockdowns anyway. If something in concrete terms can be seen, like prompt payment of salaries and pensions, I will give Bello a thumbs up. For now, I reserve my comment.

Amotolongbo:
No lockdown in Oyo State also.

The rating was just a mere academic exercise and no reality in it

Let them be deceiving themselves, Kogi has 1b dollars while Lagos 239 million almost triple.

1 billon? We are talking of about #500 billion investments, yet standard of life is going down in kogi

Who invested and WHR are the investments?

Opinion: NIPC, Kogi Overtook Lagos Because Yahaya Bello Refused To Lockdown

Covid-19 Lockdown: Kogi Overtakes Lagos in Investments, NIPC

Do you remember when Governor Yahaya Bello said this in May 2020?

"If basic livelihoods cannot be sustained, poor people will prefer the loitery of infections over the certainty of starvation"

Do you also remember when Governor Yahaya Bello said this in June 2020?

"Why lockdown our economy over a disease that has 99.9% recovery rate? The effects of lockdown on the country far supersedes the gain".

Fast forward to this day, December 2020, the Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission (NIPC) has just reported that Kogi state has overtaken all states in the Federation including Lagos, to become Nigeria's top Investments destination for the third quarter of year 2020.

Recall that earlier this year, all states in Nigeria locked down their economies and closed businesses causing a drastic fall in IGR, unemployment and total economic shut down, with the 2nd recession in 5years and worst in over 30years.

Kogi State was the only state that didn't experience Lockdown.

What is the story today?
Kogi has moved from a middle position to become first amongst all states in Nigeria as the number one investment hub.

The drop in Investments across other states has been attributed to the impact of COVID-19 and its global economic impact.

So, Yahaya Bello allowed Kogi's economy to continue to flow and refused to lockdown. But other states allowed lockdown and Kogi has overtaken everybody in investments

The Commission publishes NIPC Intelligence Newsletter 6 days a week, and through it, a total of 13 projects across 8 states were tracked. 3 of the investment announcements were start-up enterprises in health care delivery, and information and communication technology (software development).

Kogi State received the largest share of the investments announced with US$1 billion, followed by Lagos State with US$239 million, Ogun State with US$75 million and Cross Rivers State with US$15 million.

On a sector basis, the top destinations were the transportation sector which received (66%), manufacturing (27%) while information and communication, and mining and quarrying received 3% and 2% respectively. Other sectors, agriculture, and human health and social services collectively accounted for the remaining 2%.

NIPC’s Intelligence Newsletter publishes Nigerian investment-related news culled, from various sources. It is also reported that there is a 57% fall in these Investments across the country compared with the 2019 report.
While for Kogi, it is an incredibly increase in Investments.

Gov. Yahaya Bello predicted the downfall of our economy with the lockdown imposed, now it's obvious what he warned Nigerians about.

The Report gives a sense of investors’ interest in the Nigerian economy. NIPC did not independently verify the authenticity of the investment announcements but is working on tracking the announcements as they progress to actual investments.

If all said and done and it doesn't reflect on the standard of living of kogites, we shld then forget abt the stories

When u have brain u gonna lead right

Not being toss here and there
Yahaya d true Man
Let juz observe him small shan...e fit join his forefather's way

Okuda:
where are the investments?

The investment is too large you can't see it

lagdmark:

stimmt.

Covid19 seems like how China will take over from the USA too.

It's simply a case of "less is more".

osamz007:
I BELIEVE HE HAS PAID SALARIES

Yes he did. Workers are cashing out since yesterday

blezdarme12:

He hasn't

Are you a worker in Kogi State?

Just an academic judgement. Hunger dey Kogi no be small. Am telling you first hand. Which investment? In what sector. No single company producing anything in Lokoja. What's the definition of investment pls

Asontoboroo:
Kogi indeed

Let Yahaya Bello go and pay the salary and pension arrears. He should fix the roads in the state capital. He should look into the reason why doctors are fleeing government hospitals. He should secure the lives and property of kogites.

Progress that hangs in the air and doesn't trickle down is only meaningful to the narrow circle of people around the governor.

It should stop in his circle. Let no one try to give any legitimacy to rubbish.

Don't mind them.

Firstorderwizard:
Like play like play Bello is doing well this second term

baba come again, u said he's doing what? in Kogi na dog eat dog no single project apart from federal government project.
A state when PhD\master holder fighting for for political appointment from mere local government chairman because there's no single opportunities in the state except political post.

Not a fan of GYB but I supported his action to leave his state open
