This has nothing to do with standard of living.

This stat will only favor those that pay tax accurately especially worker on PAYE.

An average Igbo man has his own business and with that u can't actually estimate how much tax he will pay.

In market,all the govt can do is to say each shop should pay say 1000 monthly as levy.


But he will not be able to estimate how much goods is in each persons shop.


Igbos don't actually pay tax but using igr to judge standard of living is not correct.
spot on,the funny thing is that south east have a good standard of living than the y imagine.

If we are to hold the view that Lagos state economy is being dictated by the igbos, then we must remove lagos state out of the stat, which then brings souht west down to an equal level with south east ( 5 - 5 states).
However, if we are to deduct lagos state's N302,425,091,969 from the total south west IGR N414,847,500,567 then we will be having roughly about N110...,...,..., which still EXCEEDS the total south east IGR N49,934,646,220.
My point is: even without lagos state, south west still beats south east in terms of IGR.
I fink it is high time my igbo brothers acknowledge the fact that Performane and noise making are two parallel lines
i stand to be corrected in my calculation.
Empty barrel lo ma pa ri wo...

Please note that economic activities in the north-east has suffered greatly from the war against Boko Haram. Another thing that is clear from this statistics is that every region in Nigeria depends on oil from the Niger Delta. It is not as if they can't work harder to survive without oil money, but if you compare what they're generating currently to what they're receiving in federation account allocation, then you would understand why they're so lazy.
.
Another thing from the statistics is that the South-West is the only region in Nigeria that can survive right now no matter what happens in the oil industry. Funny enough, they're also the only region making the least noise and focusing completely on development. No wonder the economy of the country is controlled by individuals from that region.
.
Another thing to point out from this statistics is that the south-east has no superiority claim over the north. It is pure wickedness for those who clamour for Biafra to watch the economy of that region suffer while they preach about what would've been if they had their pipe dream. Why have all those who are promising to make Biafra heaven on earth not coming up with those ideas to improve the IGR of the south-eastern states, so as to at least improve the living condition of the people living there? Look at Lagos, look at Ogun, look at Kano, look at Rivers State and the high IGR they all command... Igbos are one of the biggest contributors to those IGRs, not by force but by choice, and they do so by freely associating with people from those regions. But Ogun State alone generates more revenue than all the south-eastern states combined, which means that on the strength of this statistics, it is arguable that the Igbos do better by associating with other people, and will perform woefully by staying on their own.

stop taking it tribal.
Ogun state is enjoying from lagos spill over, many companies are buying land in ogun simply because lagos is filled.

Also, i will say south west are blessed to be located at d entrance to nigeria and by d sea. Many developments from d outside world starts from lagos and ogun because of easy access and exit.

I know many oil companies dat prefer to locate their head quater in lagos instead of d south south where Dey operate due to ease of transport.

So the IGR is not about SW being d best or whatever but because virtually all oil companies and all major companies headquarters are in lagos and also d entire country is well represented in lagos.

Ogun in d next 20years may have dsame IGR with lagos due to spillage from lag.

This is why every Igbo men should believed that oil alone is not why Hausa & Yoruba is kicking against biafra. My brother I can clearly tell u that the land borders in those south west state was where their igr is coming from, who are those patronizing those borders ? The biafrans. The igr of Lagos is coming from no other place than import duties in fact import duties is contributing to 90% of Lagos igr, (both lands and sea borders). And who are those paying this duties? The biafrans. This is why the FG is discouraging any other sea port that will mount as challenge to Lagos port.

When they said biafra is landlocked this is what they mean, the land and sea borders is bringing more Igr than anything else and biafrans are the tools. Think my biafra brothers

import duties go to the State? Is something wrong with you?

Lagos IGR was very low then but the tax base was already there and was created during the 60's and 70's. What Tinubu did was just to tax an already made base. Tax specialists call it "Low-hanging fruits"

Low hanging fruits are in every region but they can't be like Lagos's own. And mind you, the IGR of East for 2016 might be poor but this year's own can be very different. IGR of Nigerian States fluctuates a lot. When last year's figures were released Kwara was quite low but they have gone up now. Some few years ago (2014)apart from Lagos, no South-west state measured up to Enugu but this year even IB beat Enugu. Anambra was like the 6th last year but this year it did not release so IGR figures flunctuate.

In that year, the South-East generated about 61.1 billion Naira in IGR while the South west minus Lagos generated 57.3 billion Naira.
