I agree, but still our governors have to do more. The South East needs to be opened up so Investors can come in.

eggzactly, I think those governors aren't embracing outside and investments like Lagos.. I don't know why.. Maybe they are satisfied with what they are chopping

ImmaculateJOE:
Lagos State government should not remit this huge money to FG, use half of it to pay your debts and the other half for any economic activity that will bring you more money.

IGR is not usually remitted to the federal government. It is for the state and its local governments' welfare.

It is IGR. Moreover, states do not remit money to FG.

Lagos was Capital more than 30 years ago. It never generated this kind of revenue when it was Capital
Why is Abuja not performing with all the billions of dollars spent there?
The last FG project completed in Lagos = 3rd Mainland bridge =1991

One thing .

Lagos City not Lagos State was the capital of Nigeria.
Just like
Kaduna ,Kano, Enugu, Bauchi, Katsina and Sokoto are capitals of their respective states.
Lagos the FCT is not the same as Lagos State.

Lagos lead other follows but to be honest Ogun state self should pick up na

Compare the IGR of your state to Ogun state first.

Ogun is coming up

Don't tell us, we want to see the books.

That is our own oyel.

All to enrich few.

You can imagine, a single company collecting 10% of such revenue!!!

Ogun state is not harnessing its potential. Ideally, the suppose to leverage on their proximity to Lagos and economic hub by hijacking most residents of Lagos. They have the land to accommodate those one who are still struggling to own a property in Lagos. They have the land for agriculture, they have natural gas. With good foresight, they should be the next money bag after Lagos harnessing the human and socio economic possibilities but as always, from one dulling governor to another.

Half of the money will be swallowed by Lagos Politicians. Lagos money is shared in give this one 200M, give that one 300M.

So sad everything will be channelled to the federation account .. and shared among parasites

In this 21st century

Approximately N500b ~$1.2b/yr.
It's still very poor by the kind of city standards Lagos wants to be compared with.

Can you provide enough evidence so that we can report to admin?

Activist001:
Lagos state is doing so well. I wish they were states in the south East that can match Lagos in infrastructure, governance and revenue.

Sadly, there's is none. Almost all our governors are completely useless.

For collection they are doing well, what about spending judiciously for the betterment of the masses
Baba that is where the corruption is in Lagos.

Sorry champ I'm from Epe lagos

Yet some upended brains would want us to kill those who made this progress a reality; calling them evil and thieves. But the useless set of people don't see the problem in glossing the lips of their underperforming leaders, who daily milk their future and their unborn generations dry.
God bless lagos state.
God bless Tinubu and everybody who's contributed to the success story.
God bless all yoruba land.
God bless all yoruba indegenes.

Stop saying Lagos generates...
Its the entire Nigeria that did d generation
If all Fed govt Facilities exit Lagos , they will be d same like edo state

You are a pathetic imp!
Everything to dumbos like you is bad belle.No wonder Nigeria is still in the sh it hole it is.
A city of about 15million inhabitants,former federal capital and commercial capital of a country of around 150million people,with a collected tax of $1billion and you don't see how abysmal that is! Thinking I said it out of bad belle and not being a Yoruba when u don't even know my tribe?
Jesus!!People like you deserve to just be cast back to the stone age!!!
For your information Chicago city for example,equivalent to say Ikeja in Lagos state,has a revenue of $4billion.
Mpi.

Nice one... kudos to the lagos state government...

Just asking no hating. If this country should divide will this still be sustainable for Lagos?

Lagos is currently housing Eko Atlantic city,
Lagos is currently housing the Dangote largest mono refinery in the world.
LASG Lekki deep seaport which is the deepest in west Africa is 50% completed, even better than FG apapa Seaport.
Lagos is currently gearing partnership with free trade zone already promising $5B.
Lagos is currently building 3rd largest rice mill in the world.



Oya do the calculation urself and see that Lagos hasn't started making money..

Give Lagos 10years time and they will start giving out Loan to neighboring country.

Now I see why Ambode was booted out for deviating from the original master plan.. Imagine if After fashola, sanwo olu next, and continue like that Lagos would have gone far..


We were only blaming Tinubu for no siding ambode but now I see they av vision than us commoner and actually knows what they are doing.. Cheers.
