freeborn02:
This means Rivers State has no business with poverty. Every local government,in rivers should be beautiful and impressive. There shouldn't be any pothole or bad road portion at all.

freeborn02:


Is Rivers State just about Omoku and Bonny Island? What of the streets and the lives of the common men on the street? Has the high IGR changed those for the better?

Gabriel004:



This op self, they said most improved,how does that equate to the topic.

Op, your list is wrong, this is the main lists;
We prepared for you the list of the top 21 richest states in Nigeria that play an important role in the country’s economy and development. Nigeria is a sub-Saharan African country blessed with natural resources. It is an independent country that has 36 flourishing states, and Crude oil has long been Nigeria’s primary source of foreign exchange and governmental revenues. Nigeria remains the largest oil producer of Africa and the 12th biggest oil producer of the world.

This article is about the top twenty-one most prosperous states in the area of Nigeria. Also, it should be noted that these regions are independent and can survive on their own without the help of the federal government, as the source of their wealth is from sectors like tourism, sports, agriculture, etc. As a result, one cannot expect these states to be poor or having insufficient wealth like many third-world counties. Let’s start from the top with the Lagos region according to GDP and wealth.

Table of Contents

1. Lagos State ($33.68 Billion)
2. Rivers State ($21.17 Billion)
3. Delta state ($ 16.75 billion)
4. Oyo state ($16.12 billion)
5. Imo State ($14.21 billion)
6. Kano state ($12.39 billion)
7. Edo state ($11.89 billion)

How TF is benue on that list? Benue state in general is a completely useless state as big as the state is half of their people have already ran to south west due to the high rate of poverty and insecurity in that state.. the town where I live the Yorubas are competing with benue people in population.ijebu ode to be precise

BastardWike:


If you're Igbo, then shame on you! You weren't bordered about other states that did better than Anambra but you want to kill yourself because Enugu did better. What sort of crab mentality is that?

FYI, Enugu has always performed well in terms of IGR over the years.

DjAduba:
Kaduna, Zamfara, Kwara and Benue 4/10. Shame on u with your negativity.

LegendHero:


This is H1 IGR stat for 2020 below.

Can you see the figure for Lagos? That’s 204 billion.

Now the Year on Year the OP posted showed just 16billion for Qtr 4 for lagos. If you really pay attention to details you will understand that what the OP meant is Year-on-Year figure.

Even if you say Covid is the reason for the drop in figure, that’s *10 decrease in just two quarter.

Kongulu:


You're right half of all the Igede & Tiv are all over the southwest hiring themselves out as farmhands & housemaids, in a bid to escape the crushing poverty and herdsmen oppression/insecurity in their homeland

This report/data is suspect

NkanAkpanika:

Yeah becos it didn't favour you, so now the op is an illiterate cos Rivers overseat Lagos?
Make una get sense oo

Blue3k:


Lol you two cant help proving you're dumb propagandist. You guys need to accept the fact you're halfwits on your best days these mumu post serve as post. Seriously you two need to improve your reading comprehension skills before running to the mods.

Facts:

• Rivers didnt overtake Lagos in igr generated
• Akwa Ibom isn't ranked 5 in igr igr generated.
• Q4 2020 isnt over so those that aren't available yet.

raker300:
IGR is revenue gotten from taxing a people.

These states are states that tax their citizens the most.

This is not a measure of growth.

GDP on the other hand is money gotten from goods/services sold..it’s a better measure of development owing to the fact more businesses/more money.

Nwadiuto247:


Shameless boy check the list again before displaying your idiocy and disgracing yourself.

Bettykeys:



You no go school thats y you lacking iota of comprehension

Year on year improvement is not the total figure of the revenue but figure of improvement compare to last year

By d way, who born River state to compete with Lagos in all ramifications despite lack of crude oil.

If you want to knw d capacity of River state just remove d crude oil then you will see where they belong to in terms of economy development

Lagos no be ur mate

KingKingKing:
This list is wrong in its entirety.. This is a false information.. Lagos IGR alone for first half 2020 is three times greater than that of Rivers'

Mods close this thread..

Nairaland is churning out false info
