Such ignorance given prominence on a site that can only be Nairaland.

Bayelsa does not take in trillions in allocation. It gets on average, 10-13 billion naira in a month. The least receiving state is Osun with 1-3 billion. The average collection for all the states is 7 billion.

Here is a 2018 study listing the 14 states that can't survive without federal allocation, Bayelsa is not there www.saharareporters.com/2018/04/29/14-states-cant-survive-without-federal-allocation-report

Seun, you should warn your mods about putting on the FrontPage articles without citations and opinions with no references. Your forum is turning into a trashcan.

Do you have roads like this anywhere in the whole Nigeria





Yes Bayelsa and other SS States should be more developed, their politicians are all theives.

Same can be said with Lagos and the corrupt Tinubu and his cronies. In Lagos what you have is DECADES of Federal Spending and a cumilnation of all Nigerian citizens blood and sweat, along with foreigners.

TruSSSS me, if Lagos was developed, there wouldn't be a single OPEN GUTTER anywhere.

Look at the dubai pic again, do you see gutters anywhere
Do you see how all the lanes are marked, no dull or faded paint.



Nigerians, please for once have some sense and stop deceiving yourselves, mtcheew undecided


If you are developed, you will VOTE OUR APC AND PDP, let us start with that one first, before you start comparing yourself with dubai, mtcheew



I don't know how they see Lagos grin grin grin Can Lagos compete with Abuja in terms of good roads and infrastructure?

Misrule and marginalization . Don't ask or tell me about Jonathan. He was there for 4-5years against 58yrs

Jonathan was Governor for only 1 year and constructed a bridge (Ecole Bridge) that same year, while Alamco used 6 years to Construct a similar bridge with the same design parameters. Goodluck is the missing link to Bayelsa Development.

this is disheartening, you think good roads is development? who compared lagos to dubai in the first place?

why do graduates run to lagos after nysc to look for job? why does lagos state have a better economy than many african countries? the wealth of uae is very much and they should be like that since they have a small population


bayelsa should be thriving greatly with all it's resources and small population, look at ekiti state, more population than bayelsa but they still beat them in some stats

please name your Local govt first.
MBGN inside government house shey
even inside government secretarial is usually waterlogged when it rains.

why is past gov. and Dickson not constructing drainage (gutter) with the few meters Roads he will manage to do?

how many years did it take Dickson to do Nemebe road?

fly over, uncompleted Issac Boro road with no drainage plan etc
the only thing Gov. Dickson did is sending everybody to school (free education).
The proposed Programme for Bayelsa Citizens to enroll automatically to teach after NYSC since his first tenure, what happened?

What anambra receive in five months is what bayelsa receive a month. They will shout resource control as if their is any country in the world that practice full federalism as if it is Houston that has the oil mining license.

They hid their inefficiency under the federal government.

Where did the people of Katsina hide their blame?
Have they not had two presidents including one who also was a military head of state and another who ruled with Obasanjo as military head of state?
Or do you think that Katsina is more developed than Bayelsa State

By Nigeria standard, Lagos is developed. But just like Abuja, Lagos didn't do it alone. It was a former capital of Nigeria.

Your comparison here is quite unfair. In as much as GEJ had a short time as governor compared to Alamco, but there are still other projects Alamco did.

Do you know that in the entire Kwara State there is only 1 flyover.

In as much as bayelsa state is still far from being what it ought to be, we should avoid comparisons that actually have no measure of standard.

Spot on,True Talk like MTN. I believe that was why President Buhari said the Youths of Nigeria are innovately lazy,ordinary petrol chemical industry jointly or severally the whole Niger Delta States Bayelsa,Rivers,Akwa Ibom,Cross River,Edo & Delta State can't build with their comparative advantage? Shameless specimen of the black race,if oyibo man comes to build it,tomorrow they will drive the white people and say it is their oil.

All past bayelsa governors need to be shot or die by hanging including goodluck ebele Jonathan..

They have everything that could turn the state into heaven but no they did the opposite..

What is bayelsa lacking,is it money? Closeness to water? Please what.

It's one of the state taking it trillions of naira more than other state but it's still look like dustbin.

Borno that have no oil or sea can pay salaries while fighting a terrorist group but bayelsa that once produced a president and have everything can't pay salaries..

It's quite disturbing


IF NIGERIA IS RESTRUCTURED IN WHICH STATES ARE FREE TO CONTROL THEIR RESOURCES IN THEIR DOMAIN THEN WITH GOOD GOVERNANCE, VISIONARY LEADERSHIP THAT IS DEVOID OF MASSIVE CORRUPTION.

THEN THINGS WILL START TAKING SHAPE FOR THE BETTER IN MOST OF THIS UNDER DEVELOPED NIGERIAN STATES THAT IS MINERAL-RICH.

Bayelsa state is endowed with beautiful marine coastline, atlantic ocean so to speak, good fishing coastal waters, crude oil, ( oil and gas )

If developed Bayelsa state can developed wealth through the following:

Marine tourism

Fishing Industries,

RICH SOUTHERN STATES MUST CONTINUE TO PRESS FOR GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT IN THEIR COMMUNITIES FROM THEIR POLITICAL LEADERS BOTH AT THE STATE LEVEL AND THE FEDERAL LEVEL.

It is quite unfortunate that most oil producing communities lack access to clean drinking water, access bridge and roads to their riverine communities.

Yet the bulk of the money gotten from crude oil exports is being shared as federal allocation to other states that are just LAZY and do not want to think out of the box.
