Let's assume that the Government want to listen to you and implement all that you have just said and things happen like this

1) At the APC convention in Jan,2023; President Jubril Al-Sudani beg El-Rufai, Tinubu, Osinbajo, Prof Zulum and other aspirants to withdraw from the race which they agree.

2) President Jubril Al-Sudani then ask Dr Ogbonnaya Onuh to be given the APC presidential ticket to make the S/East happy.

3) All the earlier aspirants who have spent their money, time, energy on APC, hoping to reap their investments grumble but ,out of respect for Jubril, they keep quiet and everyone depart to their States.

4) All the earlier aspirants stop participating in the APC campaigns

5) The PDP quickly give Atiku their presidential ticket.

6) On the election day, it is Atiku/PDP Vs Onu/APC

7) And the PDP wins



What do you suggest we should do to prevent such a scenerio?

Heavensent01:
as much as I detest the hates of Igbo to other tribe and religion, I still believe it would be unjustly if they're not elected/allow to taste govt in 2023



I'm saying it constructively not to pleased anybody with my post, Igbo have no business being called Nigerian if they're not elected as Nigeria president in 2023


in other phrase, Igbo politicians must all come out to fight for this post, Igbo elites must also caution their kinsmen against hate speech.


Igbo generally must move above the past and focus on their goals


Igbo presidency in 2023 or you allow these people to exit the project called Nigeria. with the spirit of oneness I repeat, Igbo have no business being called Nigerian if they're not allow to rule this country in 2023

How sir?

bigfish3k:
Our grouse is that he doesn't want fairness in the south

Is God only for one Tribe-Igbos?

kingandamy4life:
The truth of the matter is some day the igbos will be liberated from the Zoo since they have refused to make things right.. You know God allow you to keep enjoying grace for many years but the day he decide to act on your matter he will so disgrace you that you will be wondering no be God again. The igbos will go someday. QUOTE ME

Every part of Nigeria is changing sir, including the regions perceived to be the most backward regions.



It's part of the evidence of the success of the reconciliation that who were defeated have recorded such feats.


Nigeria has great problems but will overcome these problems.





Ndi Nijeriya Amaka!

Racoon:
So much zeal and determination for a region deemed defeated and left to start life from the scratch but dramatically picked up to be dominating every facets of our national life because of the never-say-never resilient spirit.

The region that was responsible for this back then is today a sordid theatre of gross illiteracy, abject poverty, child marriage/abuse, religion intolerance, terrorism wanton bloodshed and killings among many ills of human existence.

Meanwhile, Nigeria had then remained a deteriorating phenomenon since the forced marriage and nothing but a clear disintegration is imminent.

Bros, what's the connection between an Igboman becoming the president in 2023 and Biafrans going that somepeople will not be able to do anything?

Daguccizgreat:
Because you're afraid of Nigeria division. Certainly someday the Biafrans will go and you lots won't be able to do anything

Reverse Psychology!


Please post just ONLY ONE interview where Tinubu/APC are analysing PDP candidate (unknown?) or Zone for 2023

AntonVince:
Same reason the APC and Tinubu are very much interested in who the PDP brings forth.

Good.








But why are FFK and the PDP supporters fixated with Tinubu or whosoever APC wants to pick?

AntonVince:
Even if he does pick the ticket, it's a no-brainer that he will lose heavily to Atiku.

I don't know where the deluded "Tinubu 2023" crew intends to fetch their votes.
They talk as if the North owes them anything.

A simple review of Atiku's 2019 performance against an incumbent Buhari (despite the massive rigging) should easily tell any politically-savvy person what's in the offing come 2023.

Even if nobody in the S/West contest for the Presidential election, an Igbo candidate will still not become the President in 2023

Ezennwa:
hmm!


If South West dare to contest for 2023 Presidential Election, it means they are the most greedy Region of the millennium.

It's turn by turn, and it's not their turn.

Which University provide employment for all their graduates?



Why waiting to be employed in the first instance? Why not start your own employment?



However, how many graduates of Covenant or Landmark or Bowen Universities do you see riding Okada, selling recharge cards or cooking for people doing burial ceremonies (Olopo)?

As an employer of Labour, I have noticed that their gaduates appear to be more employable than those from public universities.

If you think I am lieing, you can check the universities of people employed within the last 5years into ICT firms, Telecom firms, Banks, Breweries, Private Universities, Private Hospitals etc

Oloun:
Nigerians can celebrate mediocrity but will never celebrate good, why are you contesting for the most beautiful University whereas 80% of its students will be unemployed after graduation!

What is the name of the Gas pipeline system and when was it built?





The 439 Km Escravos-Lagos Pipeline System was commissioned by IBB in 1989 running from Escravos in Delta State to Lagos State.

It supply gas to the Warri Petrochemical and Refinery Complex, Delta Thermal power Station, Ughelli before passing to supply Egbin Power Station, Ikorodu, West African Portland Cement Factory, Ewekoro and finally link with the Multinational West African Pipelines.




The Ohaji North-Asa South Gas Project in Imo State being developed by Seplat and Nigerian Natural Gas Company started construction in 2017, it's yet to be commissioned (earlier stated for this year) and it's expected to evacuate it's products by linking up with the Escravos-Lagos Pipelines system.







* However, Tribal bigots needs to know that these are Joint Venture BUSINESS Projects involving many companies including Chevron, Shell etc.
The gasses are bought, refined ,transported and SOLD to the consumers.

Nobody is doing anybody a favour here... it's just pure business.

horsepower102:
Obasanjo built the largest gas pipeline Network supplying gas from imo state and the rest of Niger delta to the south west. This is a historical fact.

That’s why your region has a better electricity supply for factories to setup production.

It's pure propaganda developed by Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB to draw support to their Biafran course especially from Igbo Business men and South-South while painting the Yorubas as being more evil than even the Devil .


It's aimed at whipping up delusion of perscution among the Igbos in which the Yorubas will be regarded as the persecutors and the Igbos as the victims.


Nnamdi Kanu base his agitations for Biafra on whipping up hatred for the Yorubas and Hausa-Fulanis. He has no clear cut strategies to actualize anything.

Ajibel:
I need someone to make me understand why some folks thinks Yorubas want seaport to only remain in Lagos

It's not really a Federal Government project per se but a collaboration between Akwa-Ibom State and the Private Sector. The role of the FG is to facilitate the approval for the regulatory authority and support from International Maritime Organizations to use the port.

PrecisionFx:
Do not deceive urself.

The FG will never build a seaport in Akwaibom

If you don't know, it's better you know now;


AFONJAS will also vote in the referendum, Benue, Kogi, Taraba, Plataeu and Southern Kaduna are also going to vote.



Alternatively we can rename this country Biafra, adjust the boundaries of Rivers and Delta States so that all Igboid speaking can be in one place and every State should control their resources including revenues from their Seaports and Electricity generated within their States.













The Elders have spoken!

Hisduchess:
As an afonjà it is better for you to save your breathe and mind your business too

But why?


You people think the referendum will be made only for you?

As a matter of fact , the ONLY referendum that can be easily accepted and work should be the one that is conducted all over Nigeria. Every body should chose which country they want .

Justiceleague1:
Never.... no way.

The Nigerian Bar Association should do something about it.

They are reducing the prestige and honour of this Noble Profession.




But let me give you a personal advice,

1) Start Estate Management course e.g with Nigerian Institute of Estate Surveyorsb and make sure you become a charterred Estate Surveyor & Valuer

2) Relocate from Benin City to Kwara or Osun State where the Legal Practice is not as saturated as that of Benin

3) Start practice Property Law +Estate Survey & Valuation.

4) Street Credibility: Join a political party, Join Elites Club, be active in church, Community Development Associations and NBA , do probuno cases etc


5) Thank me later

EricSmallz:
I am a Lawyer bro, I even made a 2.1 in the University. I earn 15k a month. They will be telling you that they are training you. The worse thing is that my boss will send me useless errands without Tfair, under scotching sun. I don't know of any state sha, in Edo State Benin City, some young lawyers earns nothing. It is so heart breaking.

Who is funding all his expensive life styles?

Is he soliciting for sexual clients abi why all these postures online.



In saner climes, intersex and pseudohermaphrodites volunteer themselves for medical researches but here in Nigeria, they are volunteering themselves for sexual gratifications.

When the time comes, Southern Kaduna will also be given a chance to vote to join Biafra or remain in Nigeria as agreed between Prof John Danfulani and Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.


If the Referendum is thrown open, I think Kogi, Benue, Plateau and Southern Kaduna will join Biafra

Kaduna1stson:
Even in Kaduna here, I hate when almajirins fly Biafran flags. I don't know who was sharing it to the kids.

Payment of School Fees contribute to IGR sir.


1) There are 967 Public Secondary Schools in Oyo State.

If we assume a modest number of 350,000 students in all these schools, each of whom is to pay #3000 as school fees per term.

#300* 350,000= #1.05 Billion per Term.

2) There are 3 Terms in one academic year,so total schools fees will now be,

#3* #1.05 Billion= #3.15 Billion.




Any State that sees extra #3.15 Billion to it's coffer will feel the impact.

hargbolahan01:
payment of school fees is different from IGR and doesn't add up

they pay the school fees to help govt and reduce the burden of govt about school funding

many governors like Makinde pay school grants to provide free education while he doesn't pay their WAEC fees while other states like Lagos pays WAEC fees for their student

they all just trying to reduce burden of school funding and also give electorate benefit of their govt at the same time

Good development.

Hon Rotimi Amaechi may not be liked in the South-South but he knows his onions and means well for the South-South and Nigeria at large.

Women sexuality is different from men's sexuality.


A woman may be truly raped but sometimes during the course of the intercourse, her body may start responding positively to the sexual act. She may even decide to start enjoying the sex because there is no alternative or any way to avoid it.

Some women can even fall in love with their rapists and they later start having regular consentual sex.

Yes , some women have even married their rapists!

COOL10:
If erection indicates consent,then pussy wetness means consent.
If erection indicates consent, then hard nipples mean consent.
If erection indicates consent,then eventual moans mean consent.
If erection means consent,then thrusting back of her hips means consent.

I hate double standards. Let's keep this energy

It happens usually by drugging the man.


A woman can only seduce a grown up man but we can't really call that a rape.

Muna4real:
Since I was born and now I am getting old, I have never seen a grown man raped by a woman. My brothers have you seen?

Bros, I now understand why you don't understand this simple matter.


1) The 13% Derivative from crude oil is added to their Federal allocations. It is not part of IGR.

2) You wrongly assume that only taxes deducted from the Salaries of civil servants constitute IGR.

3) It seems you think that Gov Yahyah Bello and civil servants are the only people in Kogi State.

4) There are many other people besides Civil Servants living and carrying out economic activities in Kogi State.

For instance, Okene and Lokoja are important transit towns for travelers coming from the S/West to Abuja/core North with economic implications e.g the number of Hotels and Petrol Stations in these two cities are more than all the Hotels in Bayelsa.

A significant number of Long distant Luxury buses like Ifesinachi, ABC, New Tarzan, Young Shall grow have Stations in Lokojo where they stop. These Transport companies also have economic impact on the Town.

Agricultural produce like Yams and Fishes are also produced in the State for Abuja markets, all of which attract some taxes on daily basis.

People from neighbouring States go to Lokoja to board buses going to Abuja/Kaduna/Kano. All these buses pay Hackney permits to the State Government.

What of Tenement rates for buildings in the State? Registration and licensing of private hospitals and private schools?

Kogi's strategic location and Resources is even under utilized.





Kogi has larger Landmass and larger population than Bayelsa, significant factors that can determine IGR.

Bayelsa is a smaller State ( and very swampy) with no significant industries or major agricultural output or population. Most of her crude oil exploration is often done offshore.

olisaEze:
when u hear Bayelsa State is owing salaries as it is in the media, it refers to Local government workers and not d whole state. And that has to do with d habit of State Governors appropriating LG funds to pursue election issues. Thankfully, PMB has moved to stop that madness. However, that still doesn’t explain how a Kogi State has an IGR above an Oil producing state like Bayelsa. Do explain what Kogi has done to produce such a wonderful miracle. The issue of tax whether outsourced or not is a no brainer as it is deducted from civil servants from source through the PAYE system. How many companies dey d Kogi compared to Bayelsa na? Including a 13% derivative that is also accrued to Bayelsa’s IGR as an Oil producing state which Kogi does not enjoy currently.

seanwilliam:
This girl gets banging body sha

As you take her home for the banging, you enter your bedroom and then you start smoching each other, as you are about to remove her pants and start the main work, you just notice that there is no pussy there, rather you are confronted with an equally erect 7 inches dick starring at your own dick,












What will you do??

I just told you how IGR is derived.

Each State has it's own areas of interest based on it's peculiarities and styles of administration of their Governors.

Some Governors have really tried to block loopholes in revenues leakages/wastages while some Governors reversed the tax policies of their predecessors to win favours of their electorates e.g Gov Seyi Makinde who abolished payment of School Fees in Oyo State.

Esseite:
Sokoto over Osun, Abia, Imo, Bayelsa etc under taxes, rent, levies and dividends?...

Kwara over Oyo, Anambra etc... haba..

I strongly doubt it

Where were you when the FG released bailouts to States Governments and the States refused to pay their workers?

Ask any random 3-5 civil servants in Ekiti State when Ex-Governor Ayo Fayose declared that Bailouts fund wasn't for payment of civil servants alone.

Even before and after the recession, many States Governments were and are still oweing salaries. Was it because there was no 'money'?

Why is a small and an oil producing State like Bayelsa State oweing Salaries?


I have explained in my earlier post that States Governments policies on Taxation and methods of collecting Taxes varies from States to States and this affect IGR.

Some States still rely on their civil servants (who will pocket a large chunk of the taxes) to collect their taxes, while some States have outsourced the collection of taxes to private firms e.g Osun State, Lagos State

Some States have their own Single Treasury Accounts (TSA) and use Remitta to track every payment to the nearest Kobo.

olisaEze:
So the IGR is determined by scale of preference abi the salaries of workers are low on the scale of preference of Kogi state? What is the IGR of Kogi State used for that workers livelihoods are unimportant next to? Or are u saying that d sole aim of federal allocation is for salaries?
It’d be nice for u to explain how a state that contributes monumentally to the survival of this nation can be so low on this list ahead of states that depend on largesse from the FG to pay its workers! Abi is it spirits that are working to generate the IGR?

For which year sir.

Economic reccession occur largely due to mismanagement or unforeseen economic distasters, it is NOT a permanent feature of any State or Country.

Economy of each State/Country is NOT static but changes with time. For instance, 1986 was a year of economic distaster in Nigeria due to implementation of the Structural Adjustment Programme (SAP) recommended by the IMF which crippled the economy when the Naira was massively devalued but we bounced back and recorded economic growth in 1991 due to oil windfall and effects of the Gulf war-1.


[quote author= post=90228038]This list is from office of accountant general of Federation, I know you guys enjoy fooling yourselves[/quote]

Each State published it's own budgets based on their income (allocations + IGR).

The NBS only collate these figures.

Benevento:
But honestly, i must commend some people's dexterity skill.

In just 2 minutes, Dem go don open Laptop, pra pra pra... A fake chart is out.


If you know what I mean.
