4. Esan Central. Located in Edo state, it’s
composed by several towns and cities. Its major
sector is agriculture. However, people of this
land are also engaged into industry. There are
lots of hotels, factories, and hospitals there.

5. Etinan. This area belongs to Akwa Ibom State. It
is thought to be the richest in oil production.
It’s famous for crafting and agriculture as well.
Besides, it’s the most peaceful territory in the
Western Nigeria.
These are the richest and most prosperous regions of
the country. There used to be more of them,
however, particular factors, like Civil War, have
affected them.
Now you know a bit more about the politics in
Nigeria and the principles of country division. There
are many LGAs in this state. They are not equally
developed. There exist those, which are wealthier
than the others are. It is caused by various factors.
Natural resources are one of the key reasons.

do you even know what you are typing, is it the Etinan I know or another Etinan created by your illusion.

Richest LGA list in Nigeria
Now when you’ve known about factors that have their
impact on the ratings, we can observe the list of the
wealthiest areas. It contains:

..op ask about eleme LGA in rivers state. Refinery, indorama, intels, a seaport, refinery depot and oil and gas free zone and so many other oil companies are situated in eleme lga. And a plot of land there in some communities is about 20million naira.. no exaggeration.

That's what Military Regimes IMPOSED on the Constitution of Nigeria, AND INSIST that this can't be renegotiated. But there're many ways to solve every problem.
You're more confused than the person you quoted. Since publication of monthly allocations, have you seen where Kano State, with its 44 LGAs get more than Bayels State with 8 LGAs?

1. Obio Akpor. It is the most prosperous Local
Government Area. It is situated in the River
State (Port Harcourt metropolis). It is one of the
leading economic centers of the whole country.
Besides, this is a major city of Niger Delta.
Its total area is more than 250 sq. km, while the
population approaches to 880,000. It is divided
into seventeen wards. Among the most
widespread natural resources, we can
distinguish natural gas and oil. Agricultural
sector is also quite popular.
Well, proudly Rivers. Obio/Akpor should pass for the richest in west Africa, quote me loose your left ballsgrin

cjrane:
[size=15pt]I don't believe this information is accurate. But i hope it is.

The problem however is the sheer NUMBER of LGAs in northern states.
Kano State for instance has 44 LGAs while Bayelsa has just 8. The average northern state no matter how much desert has taken over the entire place has at least 15 LGA created in the middle of the desert just to collect federal allocation.

So if Bayelsa's 8 LGAs are slightly richer (because they produce oil) than each Kano's LGA, by sheer numbers, Kano with 44 LGAs or Katsina with 34 LGAs still collects more than 500% greater allocation from the federation account on their LGAs alone than Bayelsa could ever hope for.
[/size]

Akwa Ibom has 31 LGAs n its still d one of smallest states in Nigeria

True.. Apapa and ikeja are among top industrial area we have in The country..

The number of companies and industries alone in Apapa gan is something to write about.
