all I have to say on that post is that the Op really tried in trying to point out the kind of money nigeria generate from our 2 major sources of income. The money generated from other sources when add altogether can't measure up to those two sources. But if you comapare the figures there put down by the OP with other money that is being looted in this administration that we received news of everyday, you will be wondering where the hell those kind of money is coming from? So what I believe is that there is more to Nigerian treasury that we seems to know about and only God knows. So instead of wishing failure for the incoming government based on our mere analyses here, we should put our differences aside for the interst of the nation and be hoping for the best from them and those to come after them.

Sorry bro, I want to sleep. The one bottle of Harp I took this evening is really making me tipsy.

So tomorrow morning, I'll properly respond to you. But mean while, use this opportunity to Google 'Nigeria's source of income/revenue'.

Tomorrow, we'll continue.

Then by the way, please, avoid CONSPIRACIES!

1st, that figure you gave is mostly crude lost due to productions shutdown, not actual theft (only around 60,000bpd is actually stolen). But even if we were able to bring all these 450,000bpd to full production, there is NO WAY I helll we would be able to get 'hundreds of billions of dollars' like you claimed, talk less of the FG making that kind of money. The whole of Nigeria( And u mean d FG, states, LGA, 13% derivation, Excess crude, etc) does not even get more than by $60-$80billion per annum from sales of the over 2million bpd crude that we currently make even at over $100pb talk less of these days that crude sell at less than $60 in the international market.

You were wrong, guy

[b]Cutting the cost of government means sacking thousands of civil servants, [/b]there is no two ways about that. Reducing fraudulent business acts, is best imagined in this country. We refuse to restructure, so we are paying the price for inefficiency. Any form of Tax increase MUST AND WILL BE VIGOROUS OPPOSED. You will not tax hard working regions to fund loads of lazy poor people. Increasing any form of tax must be done at the state level.

Let APC take the same revenue as is today and perform their miracle, they promised Nigeria before the election.

Cutting cost means saving billions we pay out in form of fraudulent estacodes and other official looting schemes. Governors, agency directors, ministers and even the presidency organizes jamborees for themselves and their personally hired cronies specifically to pocket estacodes. Many government officials make almost same like their official salaries in one year off estacodes alone.

Cutting cost means instead of flying to Abuja with tons of aids and collecting estacodes for officials engagements including security council meetings, let them do it via video conferencing.

All the ministries practically seek conferences to jamboree to every month just to loot and collect estacodes. Cut out unnecessary travelings to attend irrelvant conferences.

Cut out embassies in places like Mali budgeting for railway and boats that doesn't exist

Cut out foreign ministries budgeting millions for fuel and generators in countries where they have uninterrupted power supply.

Cut out ministries and SGF offices looting billions every year by replacing thousands of computers and overcharging for 2 dollar softwares. Computers shouldn't be replaced every year unless absolutely necessary..

Cut out re furnishing, rebuilding and reflowering VP's, speaker of the house's and the senate president's residence every year.

Cut out ministries and agencies hiring consultants/ cronies with billions just for the consultants to send the money back into their pockets to do everything instead of government officials within the ministry sitting on their assess doing nothing..

Hiring consultants is the new and most profitable looting scheme in Nigeria today.

This is why the government spends 90% of the yearly budget maintaining themselves while Nigerians scrambles for the remaining 10% that they still loot anyway.

This is the reason why they can not spend anything on any project or program to better the people, the money is just not there.

Nearly everything GEJ awarded was done with loans from china from billions of dollars to on kpangolo railway to repainting airport, power plant, $500 million abuja cctv toy scam and so on.

We still have subsidy scam, oil theft, revenue diversion, unaccounted fees collected by federal agencies and parastatals and so on..


No, they don't have to lay off any civil servant to save billions and even trillions....

Nigeria Generates revenue from Oil export...

Na wa 4 you o

http://www.premiumtimesng.com/oilgas-reports/162709-nigeria-realises-n2-432-trillion-oil-revenue-january-april.html
The oil revenue receipts for April (2014), the report stated, constituted about 67.6 per cent of the total revenue of N922.1 billion realised during the month.

A breakdown of the total revenue for the month also included about N299.2 billion realised from revenues from non-oil sector sources.
...
Nigeria Customs regularly boasts of the sums they collect on imports, or have you not noticed? Rice, cars, oil industry equipment, everything...
We also have a small but growing export sector of both goods and services. We don't just sit down and sell oil. Tax revenues are also raised from local businesses trading locally or internationally.

[b]You failed to add 2 other potential sources of revenue:
(1) A more rigorous tax policy.D new govt may borrow a leaf from d way Lagos state government tanked its revenue from tax alone. Conservatively when more income generating streams come on line and many tax dodging individuals and companies are brought on stream nationwide,that could add another N500b- N1t.
(2) When loopholes from customs at d ports, and land borders are plugged another conservative N500-N1t cud be brought on line annually.
There is also d proposal to increase VAT. Even if its increased from 5% presently to 7.5%,annual revenue could see another N1t jump.
So conservatively you are looking at N2trillion additional income from untapped sources.
[size=18pt]The social programs are doable.We should not also forgot that the 'a meal a day' school feeding policy would also create secondary employment opportunities:the food vendor contracted for each school or group of schools has to employ at least an assistant if not 2;he/she has to regularly go to the market to buy food ingredients,this increases d revenue of that seller,she has to transport her items to the school etc.These may look simplistic and menial in outlook but its these little streams of steady employment and income that gets economies moving because they create a chain.All these people also have to pay tax in one way or the other, no matter how little.[/size]
At the end of d day,d government may not even be spending as much as budgeted for d feeding policy and other social needs.
[size=20pt]Its only those who don't know GMB that can doubt d workability of his policies or his sincerity of purpose.Even if at d end of d day,some of these social programs are not fully implemented, GMB himself would come out to say why and believe me,his forthrightness on whatever issue,would douse any doubters, except those so used to being mischievous and still bearing a deep seated hate for having lost out in stealing and corrupting this nation under previous governments, particularly that of d monster that will handover May 28 or 29.[/size]

Officially, Nigeria exports 2 million barrels of crude oil
daily. At the current price of 60 US dollars per barrel, that
translates into 120 million US dollars.

120 million x 365day = 43,800,000,000

43 billion dollars @ 60% ( rumoured sharing formula between Nigeria and oil companies)

That means Nigeria makes 25.8 billion dollars annually.

$25.8 billion x 200 naira = 5.1 trillion naira.


Nigeria's 2014 budget was N4.6 trillion meaning we still have about 0.5 trillion naira change.
www.channelstv.com/2014/04/09/nigerian-senate-passes-4-6-trillion-naira-2014-budget/


FEDERAL INLAND REVENUE

Nigeria generated N4.69tn Revenue in 2014

www.thisdaylive.com/articles/firs-generates-n4-69tn-revenue-in-2014/200484/

Adding N4.69 trillion (firs) + 5.1 trillion (crude oil) = 9.79 trillion.

If our budget was N4.6 trillion then we have a balance of 5.1 trillion naira that nobody accounts for.

Barcanista asked where we will find 1.8 trillion to take care of our most vulnerable citizens, this balance of 5.1 trillion will be taken away from the pockets of criminals and militants.




EDIT.


I forgot the FG gets 52% of total income, even at that we have a balance of 0.6 trillion naira which is sufficient for the first stage of the social programs.
The APC government has said one of its major income earners is the mining industry.

This plans with financial discipline is very much achievable.

Please note that my analysis is based our major source of income ( oil and taxes), i have not touched other income earnings.
You know Obiagelli I had wanted to do something like this to prove to barcanista that there are many source of income in Nigeria, but have so busy that I haven't gotten the time to do it. Thank you for proving to batcanista that we have always been reaped off by our leaders. Off to you barcanista, what do u have to say? Take into consideration that it just two department "petroleum and FIRS" we have to touch department like, banking sectors, customs, nollywood, exchange commission, real estate, agricultural sector, power, etc. Pls what do you have to say.

Why can't all Nigerians come together and be hopeful for a better Nigeria, irrespective of whoever is in power?? If Nigeria becomes better, it will favour us and our future generations. Some Nigerians only want Nigeria to progress under the leadership of their own candidate or brother or kinsman! SO DISAPPOINTING!

Thank you.No one is saying some of d social programs ain't ambitious and that along d line,all may not be achieved as stated during d campaign stops, but for anyone to dismiss it outrightly or to believe that Nigeria cannot run a social welfare program for a fraction of our population is being callous,vindictive and mischievous.
We should not forget that fuel subsidy itself is a welfare program and d GEJ govt was spending at a point almost a trillion annually and this went into d pockets of elites with no trickle down benefit to the economy,yet Nigeria did not collapse.

This is the exact reason we do not need another social scheme that will eventually not really trickle down the pockets of those it was intended for.
How is the Subsidy scheme going on now? Unsustainable. Governments who practice that scheme are slowly taking it down.
I'm not arguing whether we can achieve this scheme or not, I'm only saying it'll be a waste of scare resources fending for those who are not really having any input to the economy of the country.

please running cost of crude oil production is 50% of whatever is made from it.(u can investigate that)

Did u calculate pipe line vandalization n all forms of crude oil theft?

Did u calculate repayment of our debts which is about 67 billion dollars ?

Take a course in basic economics, but u won't. Our annual budget is in the region of 4 trn and don't forget part of this budget is financed through borrowing. A budget of this amount makes useless the social programme of 5k to 25 million poorest families in the country. If u are good in elementary maths, u will find out that it will cost abt 25% of our budget to finance that program. Economically, it is not feasible, bearing in mind that recurrent expenidtures costs more than 60% of the same budget.

My own interpretation of cutting the cost of governance is REDUCING the fraudulent pay to all Legislators both state and federal, they should earn the normal wages a civil servant earn for his duty per month and even less as we don't require them to sit every day.

On Taxes, Buhari cannot even munched the idea of tax increase at the moment until he is done addressing all cases of corruption, recovering enough money to run his deficit budget, sending the corrupted elements to jail and taken back all they have stolen.

We expect the wonder working power of APC with Mr. Buhari to begin immediately after May 29th.
