Lmao,all this were not happening before Tinubu migrated from iragbiji.....Let me guess,you also have the opinion Tinubu built lagos

An insult to people like Lateef jakande(RIP) and Buba Marwa

You haven't been to Lagos before 1999, I have

Still talking of Lateef Jakande who served 1979 to 1983, I might as well talk of Alfred Diete Spiff in Rivers State or Melford Okilo

So IGR na the measure and definition of growth Of which IGR just measures the revenue a government generates within its own jurisdiction where factors like tax policies, economic activity, and the efficiency of revenue collection affect whether it increases or not...

Bros you are an enlightened senior man ooo,you just dey drop professional gba takes...

So Na IGR dem take dey measure growth,development and value creation in UK too?

IGR has been put to use, ensuring security, development of virgin lands, transparency of laws and taxation which attract companies, sanitation and transportation which are obviously strained by Obi kinsmen fleeing their lands in their millions to strain public services

These have ensured that job opportunities continue to flow in Lagos and people can invest in property knowing their life savings haven't entered voicemail with those investments. Specific land developments on the Island initiated by Tinubu are selling and generating millions of dollars per piece for both investors and LASG while Obis only cornerstone investment in the brewery has been left to the rats and rodents, just like any property investment in Anambra.

Kakhi no be leather abeg.

Theflint1:
What is this value creation you speak of?

IGR growth in Nigeria as often always driven by more stringent taxation, hardly ever is it followed by value creation or an improved quality of life. How many persons can point to aspects of their lives that have improved side-by-side the humongous IGR growth?

Whether you like it or not, there has been immense value creation in Lagos relative to Nigeria as a whole. That's why you are in Lagos and anyone who invested in property in Lagos never regretted it

Tinubu grows with Lagos. Anambra dies as Obi grows. Proportional Vs Inverse relationship

liveLongNprospa:
Again you want to tell us that Soludo will have information thag Obi stole and not raise alarm.

Soludo😅

Your scientific proof of something is whether Soludo speaks on it. I hope you won't write that in any professional exam.

Show me one instance Soludo has accused Obi of stealing. He has only accused him of lying. They are in the same game.

Olowunl01:
I believe you must have considered the probability that Tinubu 15% of the pie for 1year=Obi combined 6 years of creaming off the top, And you would rather the perpetuity of 15%?

Yes the bigger the pie, the more you get from your percentage.

It is incentivised and accountable, unlike Obi system where we don't know what he, Obiano and Soludo plus any future Governor is stealing

Tinubu stealing comes with value creation, Obi stealing comes with value destruction. If Lagos IGR is zero, Tinubu will get 15% of zero so incentive is there to grow it enormously which it has been doing.

Olowunl01:
Bros, but you mentioned Obi also grew the pie, just allegedly pocketed the growth for 6 years out of 8.
So people should choose which thief they prefer My people will say gbogbo wa ni ole, eni tile ba mo ba ni barawo.

Obi did not grow the pie relatively speaking, he stole it off the top like a common dumb thief

Anyone will rather have a managing agent delivering consistently and in an accountable methodology with a percentage share than someone just carting away like Abacha

I don't care what thief anyone prefers, just don't try to confer Sainthood on them like we are fools, and then attack us for pointing out the obvious

Olowunl01:
My chairman, are you subtly calling Mr Presido a massively bigger thief? Having chopped a larger security vote for 8years, plus IGR, then proceeded to add mad pension payout and then codified into law to take 15% of Lagos IGR in perpetuity? And people wonder why Obi is considered a saint amongst his peers

I only seperate the smart gangsters from the dumb ones, I don't confer Sainthood like Obidients

He is a bigger thief but steals while growing the pie as his chopping is linked to percentage and overall performance. Obi eats the pie

swiz123:
I don’t know how to describe this without getting banned. 4.2B difference is considered same level? That’s above $25M difference and above $34M when adjusted for inflation. Can we say over 50B difference in IGR now is the same level?

Are you sure you are a numbers man or will agenda in politics make you abandon your profession?

N4.2bln difference only declared in the final year so he can say I grew by X amount using starting point and end point only, meanwhile holding the intervening years at the same number. You lack comprehension normally

Theflint1:
Agenda na orphan

It'd also susprise you to know that between 2008 and 2016, which sort of coincided with the period in which Peter Obi was governor of Anambra, Lagos' IGR grew by approximately 100%, while according to the image Ibime attached Peter Obi grew Anambra's IGR by approximately 130%.

First your table is wrong. Correct table represented from Budgit below

Can you see that Lagos growth is never stagnant, unlike Anambra declaring same N6bln repeatedly

Anyone who follows numbers can see clear signs of manipulation in Anambra Vs Lagos numbers with Lagos showing YEARLY growth and in line with economic conditions. Lagos shows only 2 years of fairly stagnant growth - 2009-2010 representing the banking tsunami and 2014-2015 representing the global oil crash. Theirs is a normal IGR in maturity phase and in line with macro economic conditions.

Anambra posts almost no YEARLY growth, only a manipulation at the start and end of Obis tenure.

Ontop of that Anambra was in its early growth phase during Obi tenure during which growth should be exponential. All states are about 4 to 5 years behind Lagos with Governors starting to copy Tinubus IGR model 4 or 5 years later and their growth percentage year on year should be as exponential as Lagos early years before reaching maturity.

Anyone can see the fraud in it.

popizaino:
There's an atom of truth here.

Vidic lacked pace so any fast player like Agbonlahor, Torres would find him easy food

liveLongNprospa:
Obi chop igr difference and the first person we are finding it out from is Ibime?

Omo talk about insider gisttt

This has been an accusation against him since the 2000s and early 2010s. You can go and search Anambra commentaries in those days

IGR, Security Vote is a game for every Governor. Most add LGA allocation through their subservients in the LGA. These three is enough for any Governor to have generational wealth without even touching any kickback on contracts. In Obi case, he didn't even bother with LGA elections so was completely unaccountable with LGA allocations.

Tinubu is one of the only Governors that added brain to his IGR chopping by setting up managing agency so he gets rewarded (15% management fee) as IGR grows. That's why Lagos never fails to grow IGR stupendously year on year. Within that 15%, all the party ground structure is working for him and getting paid as tax collectors, hence he is an eternal Godfather.

Amigoss:
Rage bait,if dem factcheck am now,the matter go change to the mobs always attack and insult.....jeun lo senior man

You can fact check all you like.

Obi grew Anambra IGR in his first year to N6bln, then kept the IGR the same for years, pocketing the difference, only declaring an IGR close to reality when he was leaving so Obiano cannot cannot use the same chopping source

Same way Fubara more than doubled Rivers State IGR in his first year, everyone was shocked till he later revealed that the IGR has been at this level since but Wike held it steady and was chopping the difference between the real and the declared IGR

IGR and Security vote are the two biggest and easiest unaccountable chopping funds for Governors. That's the name of the game. Obi used to send his security vote straight to his company in Lagos.

This is Anambras IGR under Obi, you can fact check it. He grew it first year, then held it steady and chopped the difference for years. The pattern is the same with most of the dumb Governors that just eat off the top. Then the new Governor will miraculously grow it in his first year and repeat the cycle

Theflint1:
Proper cornvict

I only analyse the game and seperate the smart gangsters from the dumb ones

I tell it how it is, and you tell it how it might be - P Diddy

airmark:
No IGR growth.

You are wrong.

He grew the IGR tremendously in his first year

Then he declared the same IGR for the next 7 years and pocketed the difference

Same reason Simi fell out with Wike. Wikes taxman has been declaring the same IGR and pass the difference in billions to Wike. Simi got vexed and challenged the tax man to declare the correct IGR and Wike got mad cos Simi is now messing with his IGR bread which he uses to run the "structure" in Rivers

Obi is the same as any of these dumb Governors who just steal IGR and Security votes hoha.

Compare with Tinubu who grows IGR and sets up Alpha Beta as managing agent to chop 15% in perpetuity and Alpha Beta has been the cornerstone that gives him power over Lagos, AC and then APC political structure ever since

Smart chopping Vs Dumb chopping

......Ẹ̀gbọ́n, when was last time you used the Airport?!

I fly direct to PH. PH airport is more modern than airports I've been to that have major traffic numbers. Not everything must be Paris, London, Dubai type of airport. The main Koko is process my baggage and papers quick, let me go.

Have you seen airport looking like huts before. This is a 9 million yearly traffic airport below, more than MMIA by far

OasisX:
.......I took these pics last time I was in Naija. Look at our most busy Airport! Common.....if you wanna play agenda, atleast do it sensibly.

You ain't longer in Naija and you have seen how standard International Airport looks like. Hadi Sirka, last Aviation Minister, is now with Peter Obi by the way.

There is nothing wrong with these pictures. Grass in between tarmac is normal

An airport is first and foremost a port.

Once you have your runways, communications, baggage handling running appropriately, all you may complain about is air-conditioning for passenger comfort

A lot of the extra bells and whistles you see in Cosmopolitan airports are just that - bells and whistles, and paid for by the high rents they receive from the shops in them. They are not crucial to the airport

Go and check Punta Cana airport in Dominican Republic that handles 40% more traffic than MMIA. Functional, no bells and whistles, there wasn't even air-conditioning last time I was there. Just delivering high traffic efficiently. Raumdeuter can tell you more about it since he goes for evangelism there regularly.

That Odobert in Spurs has a very high ceiling

It's not often I see a winger that can use both feet as his leading dribbling foot. There are very very few. He also has extreme pace

Raumdeuter, this is correct.
Bayelsaowei, this guy might be there to sabotage Trump's agenda.

To help Biden and kamala, with inflation high, this guy lowered the rate 3 times in 2024.

Leave the man to do his job, central bank is apolitical. Inflation was 2.1% in September when Fed cut rates, today it is 2.7%.

This is not the first time Trump has bullied this man to cut rates, the same happened in 2018

liveLongNprospa:
OH. This is true.
Sadly northerners are crying all over the media an out nepotism and the juicy positions going to a certain tribe.


Airmark what do you think? 😁

Northerners want nothing less than 50% plus Minister of Petroleum (or NNPC boss) and Chief of Army Staff,

But a smart Nigerian President will keep these close to his chest and tribal affiliations. Jonathan kept these with Diezani and Ihejirika, Buhari kept these with himself and Buratai,

liveLongNprospa:
Look.. I get wanting to do what buhari did but atleast that one spread his own throughout small.

Airmark is this so?
Coz this is egregious and when northerner enter, person nor go fit even talk🤣🤣

Statistics are like mini skirts

There are 42 ministers in Nigeria and many other parastatals so listing 19 Yorubas across 42 Ministries and numerous Parastatals means nothing without presenting the full picture. Someone can also list 19 Northerners. Not to say there may not be a tribal slant (without seeing the full picture), but what a dumb way of presenting data. Clue of data manipulation lies in adding the almost politically irrelevant Fire Service to the list.

Also get Dominique to stick this thread and unstick the other one

Checking in

Iamoyindamola how do you intend to send codes, by DM or email?

IjeBos:
And your boy Trump is lying and a terrorist supporting antisemite as well?



I guess France, the UK, Canada, Israeli Human Rights Organizations and Trump are all lying to hurt Israel because they are all antisemitic terorrist supporters.
While the Akata wannabe who wants to get apropos from his other ghouls on Nairaland, is the only one right.

I wonder how this audition for Hell will work out for you.

IjeBos:
Save your propaganda.
I read(seemngly unlike you) and don't get my information from propaganda videos I watch online.
If you have to resort to lying about children starving in defense of someone, maybe you should stop defending that person.

Getting your propaganda from New York Times who published that a child was starved on their account with 8 million account then admitted he was ill on their account with 80,000 followers. 🗑️

There's a video of Hamas looting several aid trucks and shooting at aid trucks but I'd rather believe New York Times who are shown to be deliberately lying

IjeBos:
Stop being Evil.
Children are dying.
Take a step back and ask yourself what you think you are defending.

Here's your Hamas looting aid. Direct your energy there

Just a reminder that there is hunger in Gaza because Hamas started a war, loots humanitarian aid, hoards humanitarian aid and sells humanitarian aid way above market prices in order to make massive profits.
