Did you just call me lad? Well I'm not blame you.

aren't You A Kid??

NGpatriot:



While you eat your wheelbarrow and 1 gallon of kerosene.

You have soo much to say about other people progressing, but nothing to say about your own useless and incompetent governors and their mediocre village governance.

In fact, how come you people hardly ever show us what your own governors are doing? You can not show us anything because they are useless and they can not perform more than borehole, dusty village roads, kerosene and wheelbarrow.

Hey!! You are loosing it bro..take it easy,cos you don't know shit

Building bridges and castles with loans can't buy my conscience

Losing it is when you sit in your village thinking massive infrastructure projects in Kano is Gnduje and the people of Kano are trying to buy your village wheelbarrow and kerosene conscience.

idealogical:


Kano is a major State with a large economy in Nigeria, their budget is N197 bullion more that can all your SE.

Their IGR is larger than all the states in SE.


.

Some of you are so ignorant and myopic. What concerns SE states with Kano? FYI, Enugu state always post higher IGR than Kano, despite receiving only a fraction of what Kano receives as allocation (before you say trash again note that federal allocation also influences the amount of IGR generated within a state). Yet you are spewing nonsense!
Talking about flyovers, Ebonyi state that receives one of the least allocations nationwide has built numerous flyovers that non of the states in the SW except Lagos boast of. Can Ekiti that is Ebonyi's mate compare with it in terms of infrastructure??

Otele, dey there make pant dey wear you.

I don't think he has done enough,too many beggars in the streets of Kano..well he may have just built a bridge to habour new generation of beggars,do you even get it?

Further analysis of the revenue showed that Lagos State, with total revenue of N382.18bn generated, led the IGR collection table.

This is followed by Rivers and Ogun states with N112.78bn and N84.55bn respectively in 2018.

The FCT followed with IGR of N65.51bn while Delta and Kano had N58.43bn and N44.1bn respectively.

The report stated that Kaduna generated N29.4bn; Edo, N28.45bn; Oyo, N24.67bn; Enugu, N22.15bn; and Akwa-Ibom, N24.21bn

https://punchng.com/states-grew-igr-by-n231bn-to-n1-1tn-in-2018-nbs/

Look at this hypocrite wailing that what's SE got to do with Kano while at the same time comparing his SE villages with Kano?

Ignorance is when you are clueless about Kano's IGR is twice larger than your Enugu and all your SE states.

kano is one of the top 5 largest IGR states in Nigeria.

IGR is always about the economic decisions your leaders make, not always about allocations, just like your governors are sharing kerosene and wheelbarrow while Kano is spending on infrastructures to generate growth, creating jobs and bringing in investments that they, in turn, generate IGR from.

Your oppressors are the governors in your village taking your IGR and allocation to give you wheelbarrow and kerosene in return while the people of Kano are getting massive world-class infrastructures.

The joke is on you.

adekolaelect:
you speak like there in sense in what you said but none because you fail to give a tangible alternative option to what the governor is doing than out of school children you are saying which 70% of it l comes from parents or do you want Ganduje to be disbursing free money for his state citizens as a way of eradicating poverty in his state ? Yet you may be among those that wanted to kill Osinbajo with your words of insults when he was disbursing Trader money market then? Most of you only know how to dish out condemnation theoretically but failing to come out with a specific,sensible ,constructive and reasonable ideas .

First, I will ignore the personal insults....
It only betrays a lack of substance and a poor upbringing.

On the substantive matter at hand, yes I would prefer that the Governor disburse "free" money to the citizens by way of FREE education and FREE healthcare. An educated and skilled (and healthy) citizenry has been proven over and over and all over the world as humanity's most effective poverty alleviation and growth inclusive program. It is the key, bedrock and foundation to economic development. Getting foreigners to build flyovers (because you do not have skilled indigenous manpower to do so) for a largely Okada-riding population, that will inevitably be ill-maintained (again, because your army of Almajiri beggars and unskilled out-of-school children do not have the technical capacity to maintain same), is neither visionary nor meaningful development. But then again, that's probably why some gullible Nigerians' ancestors were sold into slavery in exchange for trinkets.

Abeg Igbo potopoto people should not blame the northern governor's for development, ask your governor's how much they get from federal n what have they use it for so call empowerment u talk about, Kano is developing chasing Lagos, look at Port Harcourt, looking like zamfara state with all the hudge resources yet no infrastructure and no physical human development all they do is blaming federal, it's time citizens wise up, stop blaming federal government, hold your governor's responsible, because they hide under federal government and we start blaming them when governor's are busy stealing to abroad, I pity SE AND SS people for lack of holding governor's responsible

some people will just comment any how there myopic and narrow sense directs them. please if the governor was to share the money to the citizens please how much will each get as some of you suggested.
the northern enjoys free education most and has one of the cheapest University in terms of cost of tuition fees, the cost of living is cheaper compare to other parts of Nigeria.
so guy what are you saying really.?

agulion:
This man na only flyover him Sabi build. Nothing wey flyover no go see for Ganduje hand

No mind am jare, he should have built baby factory for your brothers and sisters.

No safety precautions. You don't go to a construction site without a helmet

you are still on the same spot !!! For those who are educated & understand what the governance is will not really on only human development and left other sectors unattended to .you are compering developed nation as if education was the only sector that made them .most of us send our children to school abroad not only because of their educational standard but guarantee of employment after finishing their education and infrastructure and enabling environment is the bed rock for investors which will lead to employment of educated or non educate citizens in the state.what is the value of knowledge you have when there is no enabling environment for implementation ?

Dude, there are NO "guarantees of employment" in developed countries...
Nonetheless, education provides the basic platform to CREATE, expand, maximize and/or secure employment.

In a society like Nigeria (as with many developing societies), what many bemoan as challenges are actually economic and job-creation opportunities, because jobs are created in the process of solving societal problems. However, to be able to do that, the citizenry has to educated to the point that it has the technical and professional capacity to formulate and undertake the necessary solutions.

Meanwhile, you miss the basic point that was made, which was not that infrastructure is irrelevant, but rather than faced with a reported 80% poverty rate, the highest number of out-of-school children in the country, armies of Almajiri beggars and high levels of mortality, building flyovers for a substantially Okada-riding population should NOT be a priority! Governance is about PRIORITIZATION!

Meanwhile, can you inform us of ONE single developed nation with a largely illiterate (or poorly-educated) citizenry. Go ahead, we'll wait!

Ironically, are you saying more than 1,000 of these flyover projects are presently under construction in Aba apart from other places in Abia state? I will advise you beg your state governor to concentrate on laudable projects instead of buying shovels,pans,giving free kerosene etc to the marketer women rather than interfering on what does not concern you.

selemempe:
there is nothing he is building that governors in the east are not building...is it flyovers or what
Meanwhile eastern governors put together barely see the allocation he sees in a month

why Dickson of bayelsa used 10 billion to construct cross over in yenagoa.

stop all these theories and face the reality on Nigeria !!!!! How will you rehabilitate human development without capital project ? Can you give us ideas how a governor can improve education and human development of its citizens without capital project? Governors built schools and pay Teachers salary !!!The nature of population of those northern states ,Give us another idea that a governor can do to improve education and human development of his state than to give or enrich some part his political ally in the state which you all will still criticize ? I know your type !!! First class in theory but fail in practical .

IranianSea:

You're the most stupid one. What's the essence of those flyovers when there is no job most people in there living in adjectively poverty. Government at all state level should shift attention to the creation of jobs no bridge, flyovers and all that shit. Come to think of it if the money was spent on creating jobs, wouldn't you too go to kano to work? But now that it's flyovers, what people of West stand to benefit? You don't have any sense In you boy

What is the responsibility of your state Governor if you have to go and look for a job in Kano?.
Ganduje is quietly setting up a Cairo, by time that city will rise, you will wail more.

Why infrastructure investment is key to ending poverty

Infrastructure is the backbone of any country, generating jobs, improving the quality of life for the poor and boosting economic growth.

https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2015/10/why-infrastructure-investment-is-key-to-ending-poverty/

HOW INFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENTS ALLEVIATE POVERTY

How Infrastructure Investments Alleviate Poverty
The Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure goal aims to “build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation.” Infrastructure is the backbone of any country as it generates jobs, boost economic growth and improves the quality of life for the poor.

https://borgenproject.org/how-infrastructure-investments-alleviate-poverty/

All over the world, they spend on infrastructures to create jobs, grows the economy and eradicate poverty, but in Nigeria where we have many clueless people besieged with petty tribalism and hatred, it is the other way around.

Kano state is a major economic corridor and power house in Nigeria since day one to start with and talking about jobs, the best way to create jobs is infrastructure spending because they create jobs, they bring in new investments and generates more IGR.

Roads, bridges, flyovers, schools, hospitals and other public spending creates jobs, it put's money in people's pockets which in turn eradicates poverty, this is simple social economics because Roads, bridges, flyovers, schools and hospitals don't build themselves, human beings are hired to build them and the support services like vendors and so on also participate and reap their own benefits too.

Massive construction and infrastructure spending are the reasons why Kano is doing great, also why Kano is one of the top 5 IGR generators in Nigeria.

Lastly, transportation infrastructures like roads and bridges encourages economic growth because they facilitates free and easy movement of humans, goods and services, they also open up undeserved and impoverish areas to commerce and services.

You don't know what you are talking abut and you won't know until you educate yourself and stop the needless petty hatred, jealousy and tribalism.

I don't even see Kano people running to your own state because of poverty it's actually the other way around with the people in your state running to Kano for jobs and survival, the leaders in your own state where they are sitting on their hands and doing nothing need your advice and concern than the people in Kano.

This is why Nigeria DESERVEDLY remains a Third World S/hole...

The reality of all human history is that ALL SUCCESSFUL human economic development (unless you are saying that Nigerians are NOT human) has a conceptual basis. In effect, one has to have a plan or concept (or what you obtusely refer to as "theories" for development. The "practical" should be a physical manifestation of the concept, but without a coherent concept or "theory" of development, you might as well be pissing against the wind.

Nonetheless, for seemingly the zillionth time, you leave the SUBSTANCE of the discourse and insist on chasing ephemeral shadows. Faced with a reported 80% poverty rate, the highest number of out-of-school children in the country, armies of Almajiri beggars and high levels of mortality, building flyovers for a substantially Okada-riding population should NOT be a priority! PRIORITIES! PRIORITIES!! PRIORITIES!!!

Frankly shocking to see the celebration of flyovers built by FOREIGNERS for a population of largely beggars and illiterates mostly too poor to buy a bicycle. If you want to build "infrastructure", build that most RELEVANT to the circumstances of your citizens - schools and hospitals. Don't just "pay" teachers (subservient wages btw). Recruit more, scale up capacity, upgrade training and tools, and install RELEVANT (STEM) education.

Anyway, as the saying goes, a nation DESERVES the leadership it has. Nigeria is a great example of the TRUTH of that saying.

I agreed with you but you can't condemn infrastructures simply because there human underdevelopment and out of school children mind you it is very quickly to get result from infrastructure than to get from human development project in Nigeria simply because of who the citizens and leaders are in nigeria. Human development is a long term investment which needed more than 8yrs continuation before you can get good result and not physical but capital project is physical which can be concluded in 4 to 8 years and it contributing more to the economies of the state .some governors prefers capital project because of who we are (1) citizens are too hurry to get miracle results from politicians.(2) politicians / citizens are so corrupted which make it very difficult to implement human development project to get good result.(3)lack of project continuity bcs of political differences because it is very easy to collapse human development than capital project .Human development is fragile that is why you see people compromise their conscience because of #500 to vote any political party in nigeria but capital project is Rigid!! people will see it and it can not be take away by anybody .It is very easy to implement human development Theoretically but very difficult to bring it to reality with good result because of its fragility and time factors and Nigerians are not ready to be Patience .That is why I said your theories is very difficult to be actualised practically with good result.
