taharqa: The tax generated by d FIRS is distributed bw d 3 tiers of Govt (FG, States, LG); whilst, d about $93billion Oil money is d amount gotten from d Export of d Oil ie its Selling Price. The Cost Price (ie d cost of Exploring, Exploiting, Processing, Transporting, Shipping, Insurance, etc) used by d Oil Companies wud hv to subtracted to give d PROFIT. This Profit is then shared bw Nigeria and d Oil Companies in d general ratio 60:40%. This remaining 60% that comes to Nigeria (the Federation Account) is then shared bw d FG, all d States and LG, Derivation to Niger Delta.... Now, do d Maths to know how much d FG receives to fund its budget

i am trying to do the maths. i need a casio calculator

take dat: In 2012, the FIRS generated N5trillion or almost $32billion.
http://resourcedat.com/2013/01/break-down-of-total-tax-revenue-generated-by-nigeria-in-2012/

And, we made close to N15trillion or almost $93billion from crude oil export in 2012.

In developed countries the oil money wont accrue to the federal coffers. it will be state money

Arosa: @topic, I think it's proper for me to note that some of this nation with higher budget than Nigeria get funds from outside source to service their budget eg Egypt Ghana etc.

so? but it doesn't negate that we have a long way to go

emiye: Because the population of india is roughly the population of the african continent.

You are corroborating my stance, a budget pa capita shows it better

agreed but since we call ourselves the giant of Africa. our spending power is very important just 27Billion? when SA is 117 Angola of 20 million 44 Billion!!!!!

emiye: Nice one OP, although the population figures of each country will put it in better perspective.

A country like india with 1.2 billion human population and $268million budget is not too different from Nigeria.

What about Angola population 20 million budget 44billion

2legit2qwt: Half of the $27.87 billion is lost to corruption in all shapes and forms

Exactly not even all these 28B is spent judiciously. i dey weep ooo

the funny thing is that while the budget of new york city is 70b the budget of the whole new your state is just slightly higher $135.1 billion

why are you comparing a state to a city. you mention new york city. Lagos is a state

Nashville: I know lots of those. Go get an MBA from Wharton, Harvard or Kellogg and you'll be a DGM in no time.

WHAT IF I AM 30 ALREADY NKO?

Nashville: Very interesting. The reality is that this happens alot and it is just a reflection of our society. Someone gave an example of a lady that slept her way to the top at Zenith. I know about this lady and it was certainly not brilliance. I know of another lady in FCMB that moved from Deputy Manager to Assitant General Manager in three years. This lady only flies first class that her salary and husband's salary cannot afford. She was sleeping with the ED and another top government official and she eventually threw her husband out of the house. Hope no FCMB people on this thread because this is real life.

The reality is that Nigeria is still a male dominated society, most of the entrepreneurs, top government official, executive are men and if they want to empower a woman, some of them will demand something in return. Now lots of women because they want to advance in career and live a certain lifestyle will give something back and nobody needs to know. A female friend of mine had to leave a bank because she could not take it anymore. At 34 she was already an AGM making 20 million naira. During a board presentation one director was trying to rub her thighs. During a board meeting o. One minister (wouldnt mention names) owns an Oil and Gas servicing company. In that company she rents houses for her female marketers on the Island. And you need to see these girls. Hot looking girls. All these girls do is go to Oil companies and prostitute themselves for contracts.

Truth is that in Nigeria we believe money can get us anything so the men use money as a bargaining tool while some women just go with the flow. Most female corpers in Oil companies are there for the taking. The ogas know the girls want to work there and so they just take their turns.

I dont like generalising because I know lots of intelligent and decent women out there who work hard for their money and I think it is more prevalent in certain industries. These things happen more in banks and government institutions. This whole target setting in banks should be stopped. Some banks are particularly guilty and even give condoms to their female staff.

AGM AT 34? THAT IS QUICK OOO. THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT

After 14 yrs in power. PDP should be ashamed of not being able to solve this power problems. All we hear is plan plan plan!!! For the 4th day. I don't have light in my house!

jidegirl12: Well I don't like your opinion.. So I stated mine!!

Well u are a numbskull. Keep greasing the beds of your bosses and subordinates

jidegirl12: Yeah yeah we don hear!

At what point with some low lives get it into their skulls that individual background doesn't have much effect on their decisions as a grown aśś adult??

Spare me the stale morals Abeg!

Why are cursing I didn't curse no one. Why are abusing me for stating my opinion

This is my personal belief. Whether a woman will give her body to keep a job depends on her sexual history and self esteem. A woman with a history of numerous casual sex for immidiate gratification and multiple sexual partners irrespective of her relationship status has little self esteem. This category can do anything to keep her job. While a woman with monogamous setting sexual history who has no history of casual sex has a high self esteem and may not just open her legs to anybody just to keep her job.

coogar: you and your friends are very wrong....
there's no such point where after a comfortable lifestyle, women would use sëx to secure jobs. you can only find such at entry level when hunger and poverty are big factors that can influence such evil thoughts.

after a level of comfort has been attained, the woman herself must have become powerful with the know-how to take care of herself. you really expect someone like deziani or iweala-okonjo to use sex to secure jobs?

it's impossible....

not getting jobs, but keep it when performance and competence are becoming questionable and demand is getting high

Recently i sought advice for a friend who got a job with a new generation bank on the dept she should choose here on Nairaland
i was with this friend and couple of our elderly family friends then we got talking about women and jobs. looking at her background and societal connections they all advised her against marketing. To them,men pressurize women into doing many wrong things.They said initially, it maybe easy to resist and damn the consequences of losing the job but with time the job will mean the world to her, They believe that at level most women are ready to do anything to keep their job. they opined that at a certain salary/income, a very comfortable lifestyles would have been formed and losing their jobs at this level is seemingly unthinkable. fear of lack. that it is seemingly impossible for a woman who makes 10million with its accompanying lifestyle to give up her job and become a housewife to a husband who probably earn less

personally i disagreed with the notion that if the income is high enough women would use sex to keep the job. what is your take? can it really get the point that a woman would use her body to keep her job?

Moscow 2013: Okagbare Wins Long Jump Silver

Blessing Okagbare ended Nigeria’s long wait for a medal at the World Athletics Championships when she placed second in the long jump event at the ongoing championships in Moscow, Russia.

She was only 0.02cm behind the gold medallist, Brittney Reese of the United States. Okagbare leapt 6.99m.

Okagbare, who has also in the hunt for a medal in the 100m women race, thus became the first Nigerian to win a medal at the Championships since Seville’99 where Gloria Alozie won a sliver medal in the 100m hurdles and Francis Obikwelu won a bronze over 100m.

Reese also made history by becoming the first woman to make it a hattrick of gold medal wins at the World Championships.

THE Abia State government last year came up with an ingenious policy. All non-indigenous employees in the state public service, including teachers, were to be relieved of their duties because the government’s resources were meant for the indigenes. Over 80 per cent of the people affected are from Imo, Ebonyi, Anambra and Enugu states. Most leaders maintained a conspiracy of silence on this policy, which for long will remain one of the greatest impediments to Igbo unity. Abia State was actually treading the path of the Enugu State government, which had in the late 1990s decided to sack all non-indigenes in the state’s public service in order to “save resources”. Almost every casualty is Igbo.

But a number of Igbo social activists have now suddenly found their voice. The overnight activists have created an unmistakable mass hysteria in both the social media and the traditional media over the bogey that Governor Babatunde Fashola of Lagos State has been “deporting” Igbo people from the state. Some politicians who are determined to make political capital out of the so-called repatriations have been busy simulating the hysteria. But perhaps, unbeknownst to these people, they are hurting in a most profound manner strategic Igbo interests. No people can survive – let alone – progress on a diet of lies and emotions, or by allowing politicians to create and sustain a culture of paranoia or siege mentality, otherwise called persecution complex.

The Lagos State government launched a few year ago an ambitious project to turn Lagos, Nigeria’s economic nerve centre with a population of some 16 million, into a true megacity. This entailed, among other things, the enthronement of a new social order and a different aesthetic regime. Consequently, the state began to clear thousands of homeless people, beggars and urchins from the streets. Thus, a large number of “area boys” who are mostly Lagos Island indigenes, like the governor, are to this day still arrested and hounded into “Black Maria” trucks by Kick Against Indiscipline (KIA) officials. Borrowing a leaf from such places as New York and Hawaii, Lagos initiated a programme of returning many destitute individuals to their home states. Over 3,000 of such people have been relocated back to northern states where they have now been reintegrated with their families. When about 80 were sent to Oyo State in November 2009, the governor screamed to the high heavens that “they were dumped on Molete “Bridge” in Ibadan.

About 14 destitute people from Anambra State were sent to Onitsha last week because of the failure of the State’s Ministry of Social Welfare to arrange for the arrival of these people, unlike those of Akwa Ibom and Katsina states which made proper logistic arrangements for their own people. A section of the media has since gone to town with the extremely dangerous propaganda that the Lagos State governor is driving Igbo people out of Lagos through “brazen deportations and repatriations”. Even professionals and scholars expected to be more thoughtful and strategic in their actions have capitulated so easily to the mind poisoning reports and have been responding exuberantly. A man who introduced himself as a professor from Nnewi called me on the phone on Thursday morning to assert with so much authority that “only Anambra indigenes are being targeted for expulsion from Lagos because all Nigerians know that Anambra is the leader of the Igbo nation”. A lawyer in Maryland, United States, wrote that Fashola dare not relocate beggars of northern extraction, alleging that the Igbo are the whipping boy of Nigerian politics. He is blissfully ignorant of the thousands of northern beggars taken away from Borno Street in Ebute Metta and environs.

How did the industrious, highly republican and intelligent Igbo people embrace, all of a sudden, this level of groupthink that has made us look like a people with unimaginable amnesia? Only last month, a very big plaza in Olodi, Apapa, belonging to Igbo entrepreneurs and housing hundreds of Igbo traders was burnt at night. The next day Fashola was at the site and promised to rebuild it at Lagos State’s expense. No Igbo governor has visited the place up to this moment, and none has promised to assist the victims. Last December, Ngozi Nwosu, an actress, was reported to be down with a serious liver ailment, so an appeal fund was launched. No Southeast government, including her home state of Imo State, responded, just as no wealthy Igbo men and women did. Only N1.5 million out of 6 million needed for treatment in the United Kingdom, could be raised. Fashola provided the remaining N4.5 million. And now some so-called Igbo activists are accusing him of anti-Igbo sentiments.

Two months ago, Fashola completed the biggest housing estate he has built and named it for Emeka Anyaoku, an erstwhile Commonwealth secretary general from Anambra State. At a time some Igbo people cannot be hired as teachers or civil servants in South-eastern states, Fashola recruits them in large numbers, with some becoming judges and magistrates. His Commissioner for Economic Planning and Budget, Ben Akabueze, is from the Southeast. The chief executive of the state Infrastructure Maintenance and Regulatory Agency, Joe Igbokwe, is an engineer and publisher from Nnewi. Mac Duruigbo, from Imo State, is Fashola’s Personal Assistant on the Media.

Fashola gave Ikemba Nnewi practically a state burial last year in Lagos, the only non-Southeast governor to accord the famous Biafran leader this high honour. He was the only governor who attended last March the Chinua Achebe colloquium at Brown University on Rhode Island, United States, where he praised Achebe for his monumental achievements at a time the great writer was the butt of criticism by the Yoruba political establishment following Achebe’s unflattering remarks about Obafemi Awolowo in his new book, There Was A Country, a personal account of the Nigerian civil war. So, how did some of us come about the brainwave that the dynamic and cosmopolitan Lagos State governor is anti-Igbo? Simply because his government relocated some Igbo elements to their home state, some of whom came to Lagos to do business but instead took to hard drug consumption and became urchin, better known as “area boys”! Interestingly when Fashola began to crack down on “area boys”, most of whom are from his state, Igbo traders were over the moon, rejoicing that the governor had saved them from the miscreants of “area boys” who had for decades been tormenting the traders daily, extorting huge sums from them and viciously assailing those who refused with dangerous weapons.

There are more Igbo people in Lagos than any other state. There are so many investments in Lagos because Lagos has for long welcomed the Igbo people, enabling NdIgbo to prosper in Lagos more than any other state. And no governor in Nigeria’s history has demonstrated as much affection to our people as Fashola. Commonsense dictates we protect in a strategic manner the interests of our people and reciprocate the friendship of well meaning individuals and groups. It will be a colossal tragedy if we savour the dishes of salacious lies and terrible propaganda, which we are being served by opportunistic politicians and garnished by hysterical Igbo social activists. We must be guided at all times by truth and reason.
