Some states may not blink an eyelid while the
recession
last. Such states are viable to the
extent of survival while it last.
Below is an analysis of 5 states
that will swim successfully the
recession tide no matter what the
wave brings along.

1. Lagos State

Unarguably the most economically
viable state in the country. Latest
figures released by the National
Bureau of Statistics (NBS) on the
internally generated revenue
capacity of the 36 states confirm
that 35 states cannot survive
without the monthly statutory
allocations, leaving only Lagos
out. Oil exploration will soon start
in the state and the state will be
entitled to the 13 percent
derivation for oil producing states.
With a population of about 20
million, Lagos state look good no
matter what recession bring on.

2. Imo State

Imo State made the list not for a
sustainable economy but for
proactive measure taken by the
state governor. In a bid to
increase the state’s internally
generated revenue and diversify
its economy, the Imo State
government introduced a policy
where state civil servants are to
work for only three days in the
week, Monday to Wednesday
while they are to go to their farms
on Thursday and Fridays to
cultivate what they would eat.
This would cut government
spending for taking care of
workers for a whole two days.

3. Kano State

Kano is the commercial nerve
center of Northern Nigeria and is
the second largest city in Nigeria,
after Lagos. It is a major centre
for the production and export of
agricultural products like hides
and skins, peanuts, leather, textile,
grains and cotton. The state seem
to be viable enough to survive any
economic downturn with its
overwhelming population, spirited
workforce and regional economic
dominance which dates back to
the colonial period.

4.Bayelsa State

In what seem like a paradox, the
highest receiver of federal
allocation, Bayelsa has the lowest
population in the country. With
little people to spend on, Bayelsa
State looks good in the face of
recession.

You can add yours too

And you ignored Anambra.


I can guess your tribe.

Thrash.

which kain bayelsa ? abeg comot am before I land you blow

Bet I'm living in Lagos and I'm not enjoying the recession.....rather it's the opposite

I dey laugh ohhhhhh,only in Nigeria.

How did you come up with this list?

I agree with that of Lagos, but completely disagree with others.

You included Bayelsa and left out Anambra?

You ignored Rivers state. The state with the highest per capita income in Nigeria. The most sustainable state in Nigeria.

I'm guessing you don't know that per capita income is the true measure of wealth of a country.

recievesense:









I laugh in Chinese.

Bayelsa ke?

the point in bayelsa is: low population, highest allocation..

Absolute nonsense!

Funlordjnr:
Absolute nonsense!

Thanks alot

@op, only lagos in your post is correct. There are so many factors to consider when you want to determine which states are most economically viable.

Imo, kano and bayelsa states do not make the list especially for the reasons you highlighted.

Lagos, River, Delta, Enugu and Ogun states are the top contenders. Then Edo, Anambra and other states can follow

Op check this link


https://www.nairaland.com/3352179/nut-gives-dickson-seven-days


So remove Bayelsa

imo and bayelsa state shouldn't be on that list.
Anambra state should be included.

If the recession persists, watch how the population of these 4 states will increase and bring all states into recession.
We are all in it, don't be deceived by statistics.

Op, for Imo State, you lie. We have been in recession long before the entire country joined. Workers salaries has been cut, many of them laid off because of political interests, many health workers are being owed for over a year, abandoned projects all over, many govt contractors owed and most are closed down, Adapalm which was said to be privatised is shot down and the gates to the mill is over grown with grasses, IMO Newspaper, has got all their equipments sold off, so workers there are laid off. No single government established organization is productive apart from the propaganda arm. People are suffering in IMO state esp destroying houses of people that have certified permission to build certificates, and even court orders restraining the demolition, roads are being broken into two in the name of building tunnels when ALL THE ROADS IN OWERRI is a disaster. No road to any village from the state capital is good. Let any propagandist dispute these facts.
Anambra should be there not Imo.

If I carry you to ikeja my guy you go love Lagos o

I'm really surprised to be seeing IMO there

Op must be one of Rochas E soldiers.I don't need a prophet to tell me.He just created this topic to promote his master.which useless policy.shey Na everybody get land to farm?

trapQ:

#GutterNews

Research showed that both PH and ABA has higher consumption per capita than Lagos
