Stop giving out fake news. Kano State has Representatives more than Lagos State and triple more than some States.

hakeemhakeem:
On federal representative every States have equal representatives and ministerial each States most also represents. Bad governs cut across Nigeria because those governors are doing below par with the resources they have at hand.they lack prowess to use the human capital and natural resources within their reach

Bad governance is the issue with Kogi

Kogi is arguably one of the richest NorthCentral state, they have most mineral resources in aboundance.

Agriculture is also great there.

For Kogi to get things right, Solid minerals must be removed from FG Exclusive list and mining should strictly be local while tax are paid to FG

Ajaokuta alone is enough to sustain Nigerian steel production if coal plant are permitted and Warri-Itakpe - Ajaokuta Rail is used for Cargo

On Agriculture comparative advantage for them is Rice, Yam and fish farming due to nearness to river Niger

And their best of all the best means of revenue is tourism leveraging on very lovely scenery, but to develop that they need infrastructure




.


The problem of Kogi is its government. Igala people are at the helm of affairs in Kogi, whereas they are backward and uncivilised people who believe in born to rule mentality, they are dirty people whose agenda is for every other tribe in kogi must be under their crawl.

Just see the little development witnessed by kogi from Yahaya Bello, Prince Audu was the best kogi governor and still far behind other states governor in terms of dividends of governance

Do you also writes "personal statement"? You understand what I mean? Like someone who's going to school abroad.

If you do, I'll connect a lady with you.

When we talk about the worst state capital in nigeria, just give to to minna or lokoja. The two states are still far behind
That shows your low level of exposure when it comes to Nigeria as a country. How many states of the country have you been to?

The problem with Kogi State is
that it is controlled by two of the most
wicked, fetish, hostile and unprogressive
tribes in Nigeria, which is the Igala & Ebira.


What they specialize in doing, day in
day out is usingwitchcraft and voodoo to target and disable real or imagined enemies.
The motor accident or spiritual attacks is
one of their favorite methods.


A sitting governor was victim of accident
several times & another elected governor
died on the day his electoral victory was
to be announced.❗️❗️❗️

babasolution:
Have seen several threads and comments were lokoja is described as the worst capital in Nigeria and the most underdeveloped.

But is this really true given the situation of kogi.

Kogi state is composed of minority tribes who do not have strong representatives at the federal. How many strong kogi ministers have there been since 1999.

The federal investments in kogi such as the ajoakuta steel are moribund.The state investments like the dangote cement factory are doing relatively well but it's not enough.

Kogi population is relatively low with different tribes who stay more in their localities than in the capital, that's why I think lokoja is small.

Most kogi people either reside in Abuja or in their hometowns not in lokoja.

Have been in kogi before like over ten years back,I think the state is cool and quite organised. It just needs work on the roads which are particularly bad and clean up.

Lokoja is not bad as people paint it,most people that travel through lokoja only see the outskirts and assume that's how the whole town is.

Lokoja is a small town but not as bad as painted given the situation of the state itself
You might be right
