Selectively picking stats as usual to paint a false picture and please this failure of a government.

India also has a mammoth GDP (almost equal with that of Japan and Germany) but that's just because it's a highly populated country. We all agree that the quality of life in India is nowhere near that of the Japan or Germany.

Ekiti has a GDP of $2.8 billion and a population of about 2 million people. That's a GDP per capita of $1,000.

Seychelles has a GDP of $1.1 billion but a population of over 100,000. That's a GDP per capita of $11,000.

Clearly, the seycheless economy is almost 11x more efficient than Ekiti State. Ekiti state has no viable means of generating income, except for its schools. EKSU students pay as high as 100k for acceptance fee in the state university.

Seychelles is a tourist and agro-based economy, it is one of the most (if not the most) attractive places to visit and live in Africa. Nothing of that sort can be said for Ekiti. No production. Just spending and vibes.

A more effective measure of any economy is GDP per capita (per person). But as usual these dark souls cherry pick stats to paint a false image. I spit on this government based purely on lies.

Wao, proudly Ekitian. Hope it will manifest in the common man

antibullshit:

Thank you ! Nigerians like to use stats to make them look better off than they actually are . The stats the VP referred to places more populated countries higher up the ladder but in reality its not a reflection of how the people are living . What matters is the Gdp per capita PPP (purchasing power parity ) which reflects the income of the average household in a country . In 2020 nigerias PPP was $5000. Seychelles was $24,361. Almost 5 times that of nigeria. The VP should have kept seychelles out of his mouth !

Zeemam:
What an intelligent man, he is always on point.

mcgaius:
It's very easy to reel out figures.How can any sane man compare per capita GDP for ekiti which is about usd 800 and over 11,000 gdp per capita for each of the countries he mentioned?If you have 5m naira in the bank and also 5 wives with 20 children,there is is no way you will be richer than a man with 2m naira and 1 wife and 2 children.Thats common sense

MangekyoAlt:
Why the comparison?

Meanwhile, it is obvious that people in cape Verde and Seychelles are living better than people in ekiti. Why don't you compare that aspect, old man?

kelly72:
Yet Gambia, Cape Verde and Seychelles are all able to pay Salaries without borrowing.

angelick:

Why dont people take time to read before commenting? The man was saying the same thing you were saying. He said state government should work to improve their state through commerce that they make enough already more than some countries that are living better.

Most of the time with are politician and the people illiteracy takes over. 90% of the politicians are illiterate. This is why Nigerians go abroad and keep on supporting the idiot which could do nothing for them in Nigeria because of illiteracy
