This is the problem with all this oluwole statistics, they can't even lie very well, anyone ever noticed how oyo state became the fourth richest state in Nigeria, is it in terms of GDP growth or per capita income. Oyo that contributes virtually negative value to the national purse and can't even pay it's workers. The airport and other investments are lying fallow while the brown roof architecture hold sway. 18 Likes |

Where did you get this nonsense? The only thing imo state has over states of the federation is brothels and prostitution. The state does not offer anything to Nigeria that is why it is broke and worthless. zuchyblink:
