[quote author= post=109020844]GDP of an economy, including at State level, is a measure in monetary terms of production of all goods and services during a period. Like the compilation at the national level, State accounts statistics are based on the guidelines and recommendations set out in the System of National Accounts 2008 (SNA 2008).
The System of National Accounts provides an internationally-recognised framework and a comprehensive set of concepts, definitions and classifications for national accounting. Additionally, other relevant guidelines adopted are the International Standard Industrial Classification of all Economic Activities (ISIC) as well as the Central Product Classification (CPC) system.
States GDP compilation is important and useful for various purposes. First, it provides important information to support evidence-based policymaking. It also helps to identify key drivers of economic growth in each state and assess the performance of the state economy. Further, by revealing the structure of the state economy, the contribution of each state to the national output can be determined.
Methodologically, National/State accounts describe all flows within a period between the economic units constituting the national /state economy and their stocks. As such, the States accounts can follow national accounts as long as one can clearly define and delineate a state, and its resident units in terms of institutional units, production units, consumer units within it. In short, SGDP is the sum of gross value added of all resident producer units (industries) within the economic borders of the state during a given period of time including taxes, less subsidies, on products.
The institutional units / sectors in the States include: Non-financial corporations (Flour Mills, Nestle, etc), Financial corporations (Banks, Insurance etc), State governments, Non-profit institutions serving households (NPISH) in the state, and Households. In compilation of SGDP, residence is not based on birth or legal criteria. Instead, an institutional unit is classified as resident if it has a centre of economic interest in the economic territory of a state. Certain activities cut across state boundaries, and thus their economic contribution cannot be assigned to any one state eg telecommunication, Railway line, Transportation, Banking & Insurance. Other activities like Defence, paramilitary, border security force, high sea drilling etc are kept outside the purview of the state GDP. Key data sources included in SGDP compilation include secondary/administrative data, surveys, financial statements, audited State government accounts and VAT returns, among others.
In practice, the compilation of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) estimates for sub-national units of the Federation has been a phased exercise at the National Bureau of Statistics since 2013. In the first phase, estimates for eleven (11) States – Akwa Ibom, Bayelsa, Cross River, Delta, Kaduna, Kano, Ogun, Osun, Oyo, Rivers and Zamfara – were published in October 2018, providing estimates for states GDP for the five-year period covering 2013-2017. The completion of this initial phase of the SGDP compilation exercise revealed new insights regarding the structure of sub-national economies, while also demonstrating an improvement in statistical capacity for producing both national and state accounts.
This report provides estimates for the second phase of the States GDP compilation exercise covering an additional 11 states - Anambra, Bauchi, Ebonyi, Edo, Ekiti, Gombe, Jigawa, Kogi, Niger, Ondo - and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). Thus, the results for all 22 states are provided and analysed in this report. This is expected to inform policymakers at all levels regarding absolute and relative magnitudes of economic activities in the reporting States, even as NBS continues efforts to complete the last phase of compilation for the remaining 15 States.

Summary of Findings

i. In 2017, the nominal gross domestic product for the 22 states (for which data is currently available) stood at N63.8trillion, or 56% of Nigeria’s nominal gross domestic product in that year
ii. By sector, the 22 states accounted for 57%, 77% and 48% of agriculture, industry and services GDP at the national level respectively. Among the 22 states, however, services sector accounted for 67%, while agriculture accounted for 22% and industry, 11%.
iii. Among the 22 states, FCT had the highest gross domestic product at N10.6 trillion, or 17% of total states GDP. This was followed by Akwa-Ibom and Rivers States, each with 8% of total states GDP.

iv. In the FCT, services accounted for 81% of GDP while industry and agriculture accounted for 18% and 10% respectively. In Akwa-Ibom, however, industry accounted for 65% while services and agriculture accounted for 19% and 16% respectively.
v. Across the 22 states, the non-oil sector represented 98% of total states GDP while the oil sector accounted for only 2%.
vi. The 6 states with the highest nominal GDP in 2017 – FCT, Akwa-Ibom, Rivers, Delta, Bayelsa, Anambra – accounted for about 50% of the total states GDP, or 27% of Nigeria’s nominal GDP, in 2017.[/quote]Dude, you're dumb AF. What's this?.

VAT is a part of the aggregate revenue from the state but goes directly to FG. However, it doesn't come to me as a surprise how you dismiss the veracity of official data whenever it doesn't suit your narratives.

VAT is the biggest IGR earner of every state and it goes directly to FG. How do you expect states with bigger IGR build infrastructures with money that are being redistributed to beneficiary states like Anambra that generates meagre unsustainable IGR.
Anambra had to take a loan to build its new airport which has increased its debt burden significantly too.

Politics › Re: Unanswered Questions On Ironsi And The Regional System. by Pakute: 2:39pm On Dec 30, 2021
gidgiddy:
[s]Thats why the should teach more of Nigerian history. The Regions maintained resource control throughout the 6 months of Ironsi. Ironsi was the only military ruler who maintained the boundaries of the 4 Regions and respected the revenue sharing formular agreed at independence. Anyone saying that Ironsi broke the Regions up into provinces does not know what the arr talking about, the Regions were made up of provinces any way same as states are made up of local governments. Can any state be broken up into local governments when it is already made up of local governments?

Ironso was the only military ruler who respected the boundaries of the 4 Regions he inherited

Ironsi was the only military ruler who kept resource control

Ironsi was the only military ruler who kept the revenue sharing formular and fiscal federalism agreed at independence

What did those military rulers from North who came after Ironsi, like Gowon, do?

They subdivided the 4 Regions into 36 states we have today

They took away resource control and fiscal federalism and made Nigeria federal in name only.


All those who came after Ironsi did far worse than Ironsi[/s]
Politics › Re: Unanswered Questions On Ironsi And The Regional System. by Pakute:
gidgiddy:
And what did those who said Ironsi was evil do after killing him m, and bringing in Gowon? They subdivided the 4 Regions that existed under Ironsi into 12 states, took away resource control and fiscal federalism, and made Nigeria as unitary as possible by placing all resources in the hands of the federal government.

The same people who complained about Ironsi are the same people who took us from 4 Regions with resource control under Ironsi, to 36 states with little or no resource control

The funny part of it all is that the same Northerners who were complaining about Ironsi, his decree 34, only kicked him out of power so they could do far much worse.

Well, when Ironsi was still alive, we still had 4 Regions, every Region had resource control, and Ironsi respected fiscal federalism and the revenue sharing formular agreed at independence

Gowon who came in, abolished all four Regions, created 12 states, removed resource control, fiscal federalism and the revenue sharing agreement of independence. Subsequent Northern military rulers continued from Gowon and kept Sub-dividing Nigeria until we got our present 36 states

If Ironsi were alive today to see how Northerners took the 4 Regions under him, that had resource control and were maintaining them, to 36 states begging federal government for subvention every month, he probably would have probably wished he was dead
Stop talking like a goat. There was nothing regional about the regions anylonger. Regions that could no longer make laws for theirselves and civil service were no longer exclusive to their respective regions but had become national and subservient to the control at the center and whatever was generated by each region was also no longer exclusive within the purview of the region but to the center.
EVERYTHING had become NATIONAL with the CENTER being STRONGER while the REGIONS being WEAKER which was a complete opposite previously before Aguiyi took over.
Regions no longer had their former structures after Ironsi's decree, they were broken into PROVINCES, you dimwit. We had a group of weaker pronvinces under a military Governor who lacked executive power but under the control of a stronger center. That was exactly what Ironsi did.
In comparison, what Gowon did was far better than Ironsi's foolish decree. It's better to have a group of states each with its own Governor than Ironsi's foolish decree of a group of provinces all under one Governor. It's better a state to administer itself than a group of provinces that can't administer themselves.
It was only a matter of time before the regions lost their resource control. A stronger and newly more expansive center needed more financial powers to cater to the weaker federating units who now rely on it. If Aguiyi could shed the regions off their political and administrative powers, why wouldn't his successor also shed them off their financial or fiscal powers?.. don't be dumb.
Only fools with a brain of a lizard would keep covering up the grave foolishness of a greedy old fool called Ironsi for the purpose of consolation.
When you stripped powers off the regions and took it to the center, you've killed federalism, that's a fact. Why would I blame Gowon who met a very powerful center. Would I expect him to weaken his power that he had on a platter?.. Only fools would expect anything different. Till date, I'm still waiting for a President that will reverse the structure, reduce his power at Abuja and strengthen the States.
Why would anyone reduces his political power?. Has any of your state Governor in the SE been able to shed more powers to the local governments under them?. Don't you ever again blame Gowon for the foolishness of Ironsi.
Ironsi killed the structures and foundation our forefathers fought for and laid down for us pre independence.

I'm done with you. I'm no longer interested in your stupid back & forth.

gidgiddy:
These people are just plain ignorant. They say Ironsi removed Regionalism with one single decree in the 6 months he was in office. But Gowon was there for 9 years and could not use decree to return the so called Regionalism.

Gowon made Ironsi's Decree 34 look like childs play. Decree 34 was never a problem, the problem was that Ironsi was an Igbo man. Had Ironsi been a Northerner, nobody would have said anything, he would even still be alive today

With one single decree (Decree 14), Gowon destroyed Nigeria for good. From 4 Regions that had resource control under Ironsi, we went to 12 unitary states that had no power to control their resources. Resource control is the piller of true federalism because it is when you control your resources that you are your own master. When the federal government controls the resources, they become the master, and the Regions or states become mere 'units', or unitary rule. The fact that Ironsi never touched resource control and fiscal federalism means that nobody will ever be able to win the argument that he removed true federalism. He didnt even remove Regionalism as the 4 Regions were there until his death

Subsequent Military rulers from the North continued the state creation started by Gowon and today we have 36 states, all created by the military! Most of those states are not even viable

Even Ironsi would have been shocked at what those who came after him did to Nigeria. The same people who complained about decree 34. Not even Ironsi would have believed that Nigeria can go from 4 Regions to 36 states

Gowons decree 14 was a well calculated plan to make the North masters of Nigeria. The decree gave the Northern Region half the 12 states created, and guaranteed them political and economic control of Nigeria with the removal of resource control.

It is those who want to divert attention from all the evil machinations of Northern military rulers, starting with Gowon, that still talk about Ironsi and decree 34
See this idiot blaming the Northerners but conveniently absorbing his self-seeking ibo forebears as much guilt. I want to believe something is generally wrong with you guys. Every other person is/was wrong except you, despite your greed being the major culprit of everything fundamentally gone wrong in Nigeria.

A demon called Ironsi woke up one tipsy morning and destroyed the vestiges of regionalism, thus becoming provinces with no executive power. From being a federation to a republic. Yet you have the guts to justify the sheer insanity perpetrated by Ironsi who is currently burning in hell.
Ironsi killed regionalism while Gowon simply burried it .. simple.

You're even more foolish and dumb. Every region was liberty to develop at its own pace with the resources at her disposal. It was for the fact that your forefathers had no foresight to facilitate the development of her people and the prospects of her people abroad which is your bane in every human developmental index.

He does not tell you I love you when you say yours red flag two.

He says marriage is responsibility red flag three.

Anyway not all relationship will lead to marriage , just relax and enjoy the relationship.
Take marriage off your mind and be your best.
