Esseite:Everybody is being cheated. Kano has more LGA but having more population is disputable. Kano has more revenue from the FG than Lagos. All state are indebted. Lagos has the highest civil servant in Nigeria almost 4 times of kano. Think of the salaries. Lagos has delivered projects Kano cant think of E.g health care, power, roads, light rail not completed but almost finished. Moreover do you know to construct road in the south is almost twice the price of constructing road in the north! Everybody is being cheated even kano. Why not compare Kano and ogun then you will know kano is being cheated. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Esseite: Also, get your facts right. Lagos State was not a former capital. The Island of Lagos was the former capital!! There's Lagos Island inside Lagos state just like there's Enugu city inside Enugu State. Kano city inside Kano state. Kaduna City inside Kaduna State 4 Likes |

RockHard: Well.. am not, am actually of the opinion of none untill proven otherwise, but kano with less in all comparison to Lagos is carrying out projects in tandem with Lagod. which begs the question Are lagosians bring CHEATED!! |

shukuokukobambi: Na wah oo..shukuokukobambi, this is a new one.. lagos has always been mapped and 75% over water bridges and roads constructed but what we majorly see are expansions and tolled roads/bridges adding to generated revenue which other states dont have and were never capitals but despite that Kano/rivers are almost if not equal on infrastructures. That is why we ask, are Lagosians being CHEATED!!? |

Esseite: Here's your false claim Please note Lagos was a former capital with 75% of roads and bridges built by the federal govt. Less than 30% of LAGOS STATE WAS FEDERAL CAPITAL. See another false claim made by you kano is more densely populated than lagos while being virtually unmapped. Kano Density as @ 2006 census 470/km2 Lagos Density as @ 2006 census 6,871/km2 Lagos is 15 times more dense than Kano!! and it would have increased by now because una Ekenedilishuku buses no dey tire to empty contents at yaba, maza maza and jibowu Maybe if you had gotten these facts right, you'd have known that Lagos has more they have to spend money on than kano. 4 Likes |

Re: Are Lagosians Being CHEATED!!! by Nobody: 10:37am On Nov 08, 2018 |
vonxe: With due respect, all you mention above dont hold water with kano having a higher population.. The INEC figure says otherwise on the population, on others: -health care - majority are privatised and likewise thousands of other which brings in more revenue but not befiting infrastructures in tandem to its IGR.. Which begs the question, are Lagosians being cheated!!? |

afroniger: Great you took the bait, what infrastructures are built in comparison to its huge allocations, please note the oshodi transport hub was pegged at N22,8bn, what infrastructure at the magnitude does lagos posses revenue free like its counterpart, please no "capital city" infrastructures?... you can answer without insults. |
Re: Are Lagosians Being CHEATED!!! by Nobody: 10:47am On Nov 08, 2018 |
shukuokukobambi: Great you brought it population density, can you also capture landmass? With your narrative, it would take more infrasructure to cover the landmass of Kano than Lagos.. Despite that, Kano seems to be on same page with Lagos on infrastructure, are Lagosians being cheated?!!! |

Esseite: Dude, this is the last time I will respond to your mention because like I said earlier, you are a fraudulent wannabe smarty pants. That's besides the fact that your submissions lack coherence ("what infrastructure at the magnitude does lagos posses revenue free like its counterpart" -- like WTF is that supposed to mean) I can barely make sense of that crap. Look, I won't indulge your laziness by listing the infrastructural strides of the state governments since '99 to date, because you could do so yourself if you weren't so lazy and mischievous (though I know you would still spin your findings to fit your mischievous narrative anyway). In relative terms, Lagos is still doing far far better than most states of the federation in terms of infrastructural delivery (#Fact). When you talk of its 'huge allocations', nna, what tha Bleep are you talking about What is so 'huge' about Lagos allocation compared to what Akwa Ibom, Bayelsa, Rivers, and Delta receive as allocations from the same FG? Lagos has to augment its allocations by ingeniously seeking ways to increase its IGR in order to meet its infrastructural and wage-bill obligations. If you feel the cost of the Oshodi hub is exhorbitant, that's fine. I'm sure you are not the only one that feels that way; your party (the PDP) does as well, because that is what the opposition are there for -- to disagree with everything the ruling party does. But until you guys put in the requisite work, enough to convince the electorate that you can do things better or differently, you can keep up with your rants which amount to mere academic exercises, while those that the majority of Lagosians have entrusted with the administration of the state will continue to do their jobs. 2 Likes |

afroniger: Seriously you are empty... you are just repeating yourself over and over again, despite addressing allocation disbursement of other states with little or no excess left compared to lagos you are repeating same over 3 times now. Please move along, you lack conversation decorum.

Esseite: The report below is from September, 2018. Read it carefully and slowly. I can't even make sense of that crappy image you attached: http://businesstodayng.com/delta-akwa-ibom-rivers-bayelsa-lagos-receive-highest-allocations-as-faac-disburses-n3-946trn-in-six-months/ Delta, Akwa Ibom, Rivers, Bayelsa, Lagos receive highest allocations as FAAC As you can see in that order, It's Delta, Akwa Ibom, Rivers, BAyelsa, before Lagos. I hope you have now received sense, eh? 2 Likes |
