Abuja is in the northwest? I now understand what the other guy was trying to say.

On what basis was the IGR calculated or derived ? Since the Federal government released statistics on vehicular movement on major federal highways and some roads are higher than Lagos / Ibadan expressway and some higher than 3rd Mainland Bridge that I know such statistics are political.

Census data are also political.

That record is political and not correct . They should allow States to collect VAT to expose them.

There is a particular record in that report that I don't know how they got that amount as IGR for 2020 .

States should be allowed to collect their VAT. The Abuja people cannot be spending States labour.

Lopsidedness.

Thank God your senses were returned to you enough to modify and delete the rubbish statement you made about Igbos being leeches.

When we say most Nigerians hate Igbos but pretentiously act otherwise, you call it victim's mentality, how did this harmless and unrelated statistic become centered on Igbos ? I guess you have a simple mind well let me inform you.

The statistics didn't report that Yorubas in Lagos generated this or Fulanis in Kano generated that. It gave figures of which a lot of human factors contributed to. Even in Lagos, Dangote Group owned by a Northerners generates the Lion's share of the plate.

SE having a relatively lower IGR isn't tantamount to parasitism because there is no proven correlation in that regard. And this status is resultant to numerous factors including corruption, prevalent business model in the region, low compliance amongst others.

To conclude, every state in that list aside Lagos , receives more from the FG than it generates, making them all leeches (in your context) , some bigger leeches than the rest (likely where you categorize).

I firmly believe that if some states in SE begin to collect the FG's share of revenue, a handout won't be necessary because I clearly remember a time when Anambra was the only state operating on zero debt.

South West minus Lagos N142b is still less than North-West's N147 Billion without Abuja and this is despite the insecurity. Lagos's biggest taxpayer is still from the NW (Dangote).

Without Lagos as walking stick, SW only beats the South East and war-torn NE.
olodo rabata

Without Lagos, states in South west will be 5 and north west will be 7

And they still close to north west despite that..

Remove Abuja from north central and let's see what's left despite that they will still have 6 states left

You guys in the South East are also a parasite. Without the FG, Igbo states will be in the league of Niger Republic and Chad grin


Three states in the south east are oil producing states the oil revenue generated there is also distributed to lagos and other states in the south west. The south east can never be a parasite region if things are allowed to function as it should be naturally.

So Rivers State is the strength of South South? Cross Rivers State and Akwa-Ibom should be in Same position with Delta State.

Bayelsa can do better in fish farming as even Norway's economy is currently being survived by fish farming and exportation

The report is not fair to Bayelsa which is my adopted State. Until restructuring is done, Bayelsa cannot be fairly treated. Bayelsa is a State on the Ocean. I think only one Local government is on the mainland, the rest is on Island. Infrastructure is needed to link the local government together.

Norway's case is not applicable to Bayelsa. Norway population is less than Lagos Mainland but she makes more money from fishing than what Nigeria is making from crude oil. Norway has more oil than Nigeria, but not relying on oil. Bayelsa is not an independent State, rather, it is an exploited State in Nigeria.

FG does not dash money to Bayelsa during revenue allocation, what the state gets is a reflection of its contribution to the country's revenue ..

So when shell and other oil giants do exploration in bayelsa but report profits at their administrative head office in Lagos or Rivers state , how to you expect Bayelsa's Igr to grow ?
either way I know bayelsa isn't doing well to grow its IGR in the best way..apart from oil companies within that state what else can bayelsa be proud of as related to aggressive revenue generation. Like I said Bayelsa can push to run state OMLs , build refineries, engage in non oil activities etc...

Summary is states can do well to compete with Lagos no matter what..why can't the niger delta states be safe enough to drag all headquarters of oil companies to the various states.??

that is why we want total control of the IGR assuminga state generating 100 billion only for the federal to give you 20 out of it let every state work with what they generate and see how things will change

From the above figure, it is obvious that states like Kano, Yobe, Borno, Sokoto, etc. will find it difficult to survive if we embrace true fiscal federalism.
Ogun state is a privileged state unfortunately the successive Governors have failed to take full advantage of its contiguous location.Ogun should be generating nothing less than N100b IGR pa.

Akwa Ibom and Delta can do better. The states should provide more infrastructure to attract private investors. Kogi should make sure AJaokuta Iron and Steel Industry is completed and promised by FGN. Benue, a bridge across Niger/Benue river from Lokoja will certainly boost trade and economic activities in the state if the herdmen will allow it.

VAT should be shared between the FG and the states!

Lagos was made what it is today by FG investments in Lagos!
I can even understand Rivers, because it has oil. Lagos had NOTHING if not for FG investments in the state that made it a commercial hub. Now, LASG wants to pretend as if they are the brains behind the current status of the state as a commercial or economic hub.
Revenue from other parts of the country (especially oil money) was used to develop Lagos. In the same vein, some of the revenue from Lagos (after it had been developed by the FG into a commercial hub generating huge revenue and VAT) will be used to develop other places. until when every other state is developed to a level

People should stop the crass ignorance, hypocrisy and selfish thoughts!
The VAT should be shared between FG and states. For instance, how could Lagos claim ownership of VAT from operations (e.g. import duty) at the seaports and airports that were constructed 100% by FG?
How many major roads in Lagos were constructed and are being maintained by the state government?

I am sure you read the news about Imo having won its court case to reclaim communities from Rivers that rightly belong to them and the oil wells there. Doesn't this explain that South East lands were cut to join what you call "the owners of oil" land?

By the timeLagoss start collecting vat directly, we looking at N70b monthly..

If alpha beta/tinubu continue collecting 10%, that is N7b for 1 person. It is not for any project or local government oooiii. Apart from other leakages not recoded

Lagosians, na so una go continue dey suffer by a non indigene oo

I was there, at Aluasa, i don't like talking about Lagos again since i am no longer there. One thing is, Tinubu is Lagos and Lagos is Tinubu. My prayer is that the country should be restructured and when that happens we will know how far and how small Lagos is. There is nothing you have in Lagos that cannot be trippled in each of the Southern states. The beautiful part of it is that Lagos is already saturated and when my people eventually wakes up, well, i have said enough.

This is where I have problem with most of our brother from South East. You alway believe your contribution of tax make Lagos what it is.
So sorry, it's not so at all.
Tinubu make Lagos IGR what it is today by creating enabling business environment.
In the near future, Lagos IGR will be x3 of what it is today because of inflow of foreign investment it attract.

When Tinubu was planning LFTZ and Eko Atlantic, little did the like of you know that more prosperous business is coming to Lagos. And the more the business the more the tax.

If your contribution was what make Lagos what it is, how come the total population in the East, which is far more than the whole Easter people living in Lagos, contribution not more than that of Lagos alone. My brother think.

Oga Lagos has always been the center of excellence and the richest state in Nigeria because it has the only functional port and former capital. It has nothing to do with tinubu.

If Lagos handles their tax properly it should be 3 times what it is today.
