why deduct small amount from Anambra (the lowest I think) and then allocated heavy amount for them?

In every nation who have sense n who practice democracy, states or regions control their resources n pay a given percentage to the FG. Stop exposing ur stupidity online, the ones u have done in brown roof beer palour is more than enough.

Go n read up, depending on other peoples resources for survival has placed several layers of shiit on ur brain.

This is actually very small to run a state

Imagine my state imo with over 3million people with 17bn in 6 months ??

If every individual is taxed 5k a month that's 15bn every month and with that we will get our desired development and we will have reason to hold our governors accountable

But no we decide to spend far more to achieve nothing

A typical car owner in Nigeria will spend 400k a years averagely to maintain his cars

But as him to pay a tax of 10k a month for road maintaince that will save his car he will protest

We have over 11 million cars in Nigeria ...if on average each pays 10k every month that's 110bm that's over 1.2 trillion on road maintaince

Say federal government takes 30% and states 70% of what you contribute tell me why we would have bad roads

Pchidexy:
Imo state gets more than that. Take a look at the deductions(5billion plus). There is truly no explanation for mediocrity!

Not True go check your history well. The Ijaws and other minority tribes dominate the South South not Igbos.

How much do you think will construct a good 10km 8 lane road with underground dranage system

How much do you think will construct a world class department in Imsu

How much do you think will construct and equip a world class hospital

How much ...what we get as a country are far less than most city budget in the USA

What's the wage bill of imo state I'm sure it's close to 3 billion that's even if it's 2 billion a month that's means you have less than 8 billion for a state like imo state for 6 months

You will run Imsu ,imo poly ,all sec school ,all primary school ,ministries , Meantain the Ezes and still expect concrete development ?
Lol it's stupidity

If u look/read my previous post I made no mention of investment, I only wrote about collecting of money monthly from fg in form of allocation. So what am actually trying to say is that whatever d fg realizes "be it from naturally resources or otherwise" should be publish, state by state, so that we know how much leaves each state monthly and how much is return to such a state in form of allocation.
The other part I wrote about the bad leaders in my state, no matter how much they get from fg, it will always be looted by the "emperors" (government officials), however that won't stop us for clamouring for resource control.

Oga kebbi is too far na. let the Ndoki communities that were caved from Abia into akwa ibom in 1991, Omuma, Obigbo and Opobo be returned to Abia state. Let the egbema communities that were seceded to Rivers state be returned to IMO state and let at least two local govts be given to cross river from akwa ibom since the people of the two states share similar culture and identity. And some local from delta to Edo.

Ekinematics:



Wetin dis 1 dey talk
Wetin concern Opobo with Abia?
What does Omuma get to do with Abia?
And why can't the Egbema that was ceded to IMO be returned to RIVERS STATE?
In fact wetin bring dis kind talk?
This kind of jealousy will soon make some people run mental.

The federal government need not publish what it gets from every state, its a complicated process if you understand how it works, furthermore, the nation has a common purse called the federation account, what it holds is what really matters. The states can make their own investments and publish it by LGAs. You can't talk revenue without investments, money don't grow on trees right?
Resource control by states? You guys are funny, these state governors feel they can sell any BS to people hoping they run along with it. When next politicians put you up to such ridiculous demands, just ask them to explain how the investments are made, the process and proceeds, may be when you get the idea, you can judge if the states can.
Truth is, most of the things you hear from unqualified political analysts are total nonsense.

So, what business do some of the rich states have with owing salaries?

Bayelsa, is a typical example of a FAILED STATE if we compare her level of development to her income.

Is this also as a result of FG or failure to restructure?

'''Truth is, most of the things you hear from unqualified political analysts are total nonsense'''

The issue raised isn't politics. It's pure economics.

The only way for Nigeria to leave this mess is going back to regional government. Each state or region gets full control of their resources n give back a small percent to the Fg. That's how sane nations in the world run.

Empowering the state government will give pay for the private sector to grow, that's how America n other nations we envy work. FG doesn't control states or what they earn, state laws do.

Wit this present system, Nigeria is headed for more poverty n finally war/disintegration.

Kennywills7:

You suggested that the states should make their own investments then then publish it L.G.A., don't you thing it's the same thing I want the federal government to do? It's complicated only because nigeria states has be program to be at the mercy of the federal government, I mean these fg allocation at the end of every month is irritating to me, what if fg decide to seize a particular state allocation what becomes of such a state? Yes our governors disappoint us more with their corrupt minded antics however that can never disqualify our agitation for resource control. The states should should control their resources and remit a certain amount to the federation account maybe yearly or monthly. The states can make better investments with that while the federal government checking the activities of the states.

So u think everyone is foolish n arrogant like u abi The FG in America pays allocation to their states from the taxes collected from each state, they pay back a certain percentage depending on the wealth/needs of each state.

Each state in America control the natural resources within it and pay back a certain percentage to the FG, stop fooooling urself in public domain, shouting, ranting n insulting people online wen they present facts to u won't make u any better, rather it exposes the leakages in ur home training.

Were you not the semi !diot misinforming people that America doesn't pay allocation? Now you are telling me the source of the allocation they pay.
