as u can see in the picture imo state has higher GDP than Ogun yet the Ogun's IGR is way higher , don't try to sound smart when u don't know anything

why would I be concerned about the SEasterners going to the west and north
isn't this "one Nigeria" and the money made does it enter ur pocket because ur a westerner or theirs? when the northerners sometimes start chasing Igbos away , why do u think they do that? don't they think "they are coming to develop our land na". no because they know for a fact that whatever money made won't enter their pocket and any pride they have as being the "owners" of that zone has no solid physical implication on theirs lives , they were poor b4 they'll be poor after

why would I be bothered that we are fully using the country resources instead of limiting ourselves to one zone like some short sighted fools?
I said you should stop lieing .The gdp you quoted it's old Lagos gdp it's around $110 now .do your research very well. thank you.

.Lagos State governor, Akinwunmi Ambode, has described the state as the fastest growing mega city in the world, just as he revealed that its Gross Domestic Product GDP has hit $136 billion.

He also said the state accounts for over 90 per cent of Nigeria’s foreign trade flow, which invariably contributes 30 per cent to the country’s GDP and also accounts for 65 per cent of its manufacturing activity.

The governor who spoke through his Special Adviser on Overseas Affairs and Investment , Professor Ademola Abass, in Alausa, Ikeja, yesterday added that it attracted over  293  investors in a year.

Even with economic recession, he said, government had attracted more foreign direct investments in the first two years of the present administration than it did in the past 15 years.

His words:” Lagos, as the economic capital of Nigeria and the West African sub region with a 136 billion USD GDP, accounts for over 90 per cent of Nigeria’s foreign trade flow, contributes 30 per cent to the country’s GDP and also accounts for 65 per cent of its manufacturing activity”.

“It is our desire to see a prosperous Lagos that we will all be proud of, in terms of investment, open for business for the benefit of all.”

Since inception, Office of Overseas, Affairs and Investment has encouraged investor’s confidence in Lagos, as a place to conduct business and live in, he said.

Meanwhile the state has raked in N20.774 billion on land related transactions in the past one year. This is against the 2015 revenue of N9.2 billion.

The Special Adviser (Urban Development), Mrs. Yetunde Onabule, made the disclosure in Alausa, Ikeja, yesterday.

She also revealed that a total sum of N2, 022 billion was paid as compensation to individuals and groups whose lands and property were acquired for  overriding public interest.

The beneficiaries of the compensation according to her include, the  Abule Egba Link Bridge, Oko Baba Sawmill, Isale Igangan Regeneration Project, Olorunsogo Market (Shops), Epe Road Expansion and Mosafejo Community/Olorunsogo Ultra-Modern Market.

The governor’s aide also said that since the inception of the Governor Akinwunmi Ambode-led administration, a total of 4, 445 Electronic Certificate of Occupancy (E-C of O) had been signed by the governor.

Help me ask these ignorant people. Majority of what happens in Apapa are controlled by Federal government. The taxes are federal collected by FIRS. This add little to IGR. These kids needs to know that Apapa is even a disaster for Lagos. The customs, police and other government agencies at the ports are under federal government. The customs duties you pay to clear your goods goes to FG, not LASG. Atiku's Intel is working with NPA. NPA is an agency of Federal Government. Lagos makes no direct income from ports. It's federal government that makes the money and they share to all 36 states. Apapa port case should not be used
VAT and company income taxes are collected by FIRS and not Lagos State. Oil company pays taxes to FG, while staff pay taxes to LASG.

Lagos makes more money from

P A Y É PIT
Land Use Charge
Hotel and consumption tax.
Title documents registration/ perfection in Alausa
Sale of land in Government Scheme.
Physical Planning approval
Surveyor General
LASBCA
Petrol station taxes
Adverts
Vehicle license
Etc

Idiots should stop talking about income from ports or oil revenue. Without federal allocation, Lagos is doing so well. Ask Tinubu How he did it from 2003 to 2007.

It's the Governors of other states that are killing their citizens
Don't mind them,then they will turn around and blame the President for their woes instead of their State Governors,I would have said Local Government personnel also but the Local Government although autonomous under the Constitution of Nigeria 1999 as amended is been controlled by the State Governors which is unconstitutional.

LIRS is doing about ₦250billion per annum, same way Fowler is making FIRS to do about ₦1 trillion plus per annum


Your second paragraph is devoid of fact

FIRS has generated more than #3.5 trillion

they aren't factless , it's quite easy to calculate per capita GDP


GDP divided by population and I get the population would be fairly estimated


and even if they aren't accurate that isn't my point
fact is taken account population of the SE and GDP , the SE is doing better than the SW


Official government data and stats compiled by experts at NBS are facts, not factless internet opinions and topics on Nl.

It is called per capita income, not per capita GDP and the list you provided is outdated.

Some southwestern states are generally richer than southeastern states. States like Lagos, Ogun, and Ondo state have better PCI than any states in the southeast.

If you are truthful to yourself and your tribe, you dont need second party to inform you that Yorubas doesn't own up to 10% industries in Ogun, this is fact, with the large IGR Ogun is still under-develop, the government of Ogun is still owing pensioners and gratuity, Amosu borrowed $350 million early this year to complete the projects he started since his first tenure, Ogun was bailed out twice during recession, Ogun is haven of kidnapers, rituals activities in Nigeria, last year Ogun top states with highest cases of suicides in Nigeria. Ogun is less developed when compare to Enugu, Imo Anambra, this is fact if you gone beyond southwest boundary.

u see! why u are foolish, yorubas doesn't own up to 10%, so who owns it? Igbo? Monkey!
