MrFly:
should we blame whoever taught u maths for this mathematical blunder u just posted here? Akwa Ibom alone has more than 9,000 workers in the state employ and the pay isnt 30k flat. Am not defending these polithievecians but always ensure u put ur facts statistically correct to avoid creating public panic. I am above an entry level civil servant though but my take home barely last 3wks with my family bt wetin man go do. We suffer and smile hoping that one day things will change

False. What helped Akwa Ibom was getting a greater share of the national cake. It went from getting just peanuts from the federation account to being the richest recipient of oil revenue (among the states). There is now enough money to satisfy the greed of the politicians and a little left for some capital projects. But, Akwa Ibom should be doing much better given its small population and small landmass.

Yes said I was stupid but u are beyond stupid. Gases are produced in oil fields and refineries where petroleum is fractionally distilled. Which other refineries does Imo State have apart from Waltersmith which derives its input from the south-south, can u compare the number of oil fields in any South-south state to that of Imo?
Is natural gas a major source of Nigeria's revenue?
Do u even know that most of the natural gas produced in Nigerian refineries is flared as Nigeria is yet to truly tap into its potential?
The major source of Nigeria's revenue is petroleum and Nigeria exports about 2.5 million barrels per day. Akwa Ibom alone contributes over 500,000 barrels per day. How many does Imo contribute? A meagre 17,000.
Sometimes its better to keep shut if u are not intelligent enough to take part in an argument.

Savie:
FG has now recognize Akwa Ibom because we are developing at a great speed and gaining popularity!

NNPC...lol, there's always exceptions to the rule, but they're just that, exceptions. Many of these state-owned companies operate monopolies, or close to - so it doesn't disprove my position. That state owned companies don't work.

rdokoye:
He didn't "said" that to me, and whether or not he wrote that to someone else is irrelevant, because that wasn't my point. My point is, that the government has no business getting into business and/or industries. That's the sole responsibility of the people. The government's job is to create the enablers, so that the populace can have the knowhow and the funding to establish these businesses/industries.

As I've said before, such businesses never last; whether they're in Nigeria, USA or England.

EddyRex:
Welcome development.

Amaechi is not repeating any mistake. There is a railway policy that this government is following strictly. The Lagos-Calabar coastal rail project is a priority project and federal government already secured National Assembly approval to borrow funds for the project. The project may not be completed by Buhari but it will definitely be started and Nigeria’s counterpart fund will be fully paid so that nothing can disturb the project even when Buhari is out of office.

Nice one from FG

Akwa Ibom forward ever backward never.

rdokoye:
I should do my research? You brought up commie countries as an example of a public sector led economies. You obviously don't understand what I wrote. So just say that, instead of making a fool of yourself.

Communism is a system of governance were the economy is heavily regulated by the state. The companies, the employers of said economy are private sector owned, they're just heavily stifled by government policy, which seeks to ensure everyone enjoys the same standard of living.

But of course that's not possible, as all businesses and occupations are not created equally. Some are more profitable than others. Communism seeks to address this problem by using wealth generated from more profitable exploits to fund and supplement the wages of less profitable occupations, e.I. Road sweepers, porters etc.

In short, it doesn't work, as it inhibits economic development, which over time leads to more poverty. Nigeria is a capitalist economy, with a largely backward population. But that's the fault of its leaders, who have for so long leveraged off the backwardness of their populace to keep themselves in power.

Last I checked there's no heavily regulation of businesses in Nigeria, nor are there any welfare packages, so you can't call it a socialist economy. You either work or die.

sageb:
Good initiative
