The mods need to pin this comment. This is one of the most sensible comments that ive read on nairaland this year.
Racoon:
IGR is not a measure of economic progress. Stop parading ignorance. GDP per capita is the correct measure of economic progress. IGR only shows how the people are taxed. It's a very popular quote that no government can tax itself into prosperity. Heavy taxation is never an economic progress.

Is The Cable a reliable source?

It would also be good to breakdon the sources of each state's IGR.
Re: Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) Among Nigerian States In 2022 by smeag0l(m): 2:39pm On Oct 24, 2023
This is totally not true. Per capita income is dependent on both GDP and population. Your GDP can be growing as a result of the increase in population but your per capita remains the same and you have experienced no economic development. Sadly, this has been the case with Lagos for years.
Mynd44:

As much as this is correct, it is not completely true

The way to grow your Per Capital Income (PCI) is to grow your GDP and this can only be done with funds. The government has to make sustainable developments into the various sectors. The government also has to support small and medium scale businesses and attract large scale ones.

How can any government do this? by spending. By building more roads, more rails, more sea access, electricity etc. And this is where IGR comes in.

If a state has an IGR of 10 Billion, how can such a state build infrastructure to develop the economy?

IGR is also a show of how much economic activity is going on as this is why taxes are paid in the first place.

Lagos is a giant in Nigeria's commercial landscape, so I won't even go there. But what surprises me is the performance of the so called "brown roof" states of Ogun and Oyo.

Ogun state alone has a higher IGR than the entire South East and the entire North Central with the exception of FCT.

Oyo has IGR higher than 3 SE states and 4 North Central states.

Same Ogun Anambra is beating by GDP? grin

You should be mad that despite how you people are being milked in tax Ogun has the worst infrastructures in southern Nigeria even your senate President confirmed it last week.


SW you people are mostly employees


And those companies are paying Thier taxes Via by indirect means yes you heard that! Companies leverage increase in salary to paying taxes


SE people on the other hand are self employed
Less taxed and are doing well for themselves

I mean how many persons are being taxed in Onitsha, Aba , Nnewi and Enugu?

IGR is never a way to show economic viability of a region but GDP and HDI

LOOOL.

My people perish for lack of knowledge.

On a serious note, high taxation actually reduces growth and income.

How will mama Cynthia generate wealth, improve or expand her business, etc; when she is paying taxes, duties and levies at every corner?

There was an article just last week on big name companies, employing thousands of people, who have left Nigeria. Their number one concern was forex flunctuations, closely followed by high taxation, cost of imports etc.

The high IGR in the States are from companies. Oil companies, multinationals, NGOs, etc. I'm including company taxation and salary taxation.

If anything, all states should be fighting to reduce their taxes. After all, most of this IGR is wasted anyways.
