When ironsi was dismantling the regional government, they thought they would be at advantage over other people.
But it turned out in opposite direction.

Cocoa.
Why there is no news on cocoa.
The country can get lot of money from cocoa plantation.

We can see cocoa house built by our father, obafemi awolowo.

That's where IGR comes in. The SW has the highest IGR even without Lagos. It's the most self reliant as it knows how to generate income than the regions..

The SouthWest is the least parasitic region in Nigeria.

Since SW is so adept at generating IGR, let's remove their FAAC allocation and share it among the other geopolitical zones of the country.

Win-win situation if you ask me....

They pay the highest tax in this country.

Ask ur parent to show u their tax clearance which I am sure they don't have but that illiterate igbo guy out there has numerous tax clearance certificates which shows that,they are the reasons why Nigeria is still viable.

60% of all imports goes to the south east that is Onitsha and Aba.

Next time talk with facts...in this country,with ur so called imaginary igr,the igbos live better and a better living condition than the entire western region.


Can you provide the evidence to show igbos pay the highest tax in Nigeria?
You said 60% of imports goes to onitsha and aba, how come onitsha and aba aren't generating 60% of VAT in Nigeria? Abi na akpu and ugwu them they import to onitsha/aba ni?

the only saviour for South west is northern nigeria are not connected to the Atlantic ocean by now una mouth for don close because the way northerners moved capital from lagos to Abuja is the same way they will allocate few ships to lagos port,let me say it again before you start comparing SE with SW first of all one South east state must be capital of Nigeria for 40 or 50 years the same way lagos enjoyed after that we can start to compete, you asked 3 marathon runners to run from lagos to Benin you kept one runner at ORE one at shagamu one ojota and your looking among the 3 runners who will get to Benin first you must be high on colos

Contradictory Statiistics. The same East has been asking for Biafra so that the south west can boldly develop its region without external parasites feasting on her resources but guess who has always been fighting for togetherness? One thing I have come learn is that the North is not afraid of Nigeria being divided into the major tribes, only the south west has been consistent in their begging approach to keep Nigeria United at all cost. In Awo's words when he realised Gowon was thinking of letting the East to secede during the war; "if by chance, the East is allowed to exit Nigeria, South West will follow suit"
Till today, you can't see any easterner bathing an eyelid at the call for Odua Republic and if for anything, they show their support for such call but the West at any opportunity they see call for Biafra, they become jittery and go hateful against a people that are willing to leave them in their paradise, so who in actual fact is/are the real parasites?

You guys are very daft and dense. Ironsi still kept the regions intact he didn't dismantle them. The person who dismantled it was Gowon, this stupid statement from you is fast becoming stale, grow for once in your miserable life.

Hear mumu talk!
So, their ancestors didn't see Atlantic ocean b4 they decided to settle up north? Even you SEasterners that are not too far from the ocean, why did your ancestors run away from the ocean mouth? You think say na everybody fit stay for near water like oceans? It takes special courage and high level of spirituality.

see mad talk. Lagos is no man's land, a British colony. Ogun IGR is fake, just happens due to proximity to Lagos. Ondo is not a SW state, it's more a South South state more populated by ijaws and ijaw oil. The only true SW states are osun and ekiti - calculate the IGR

It's appalling when people in Lagos glory in things not their making.

I have said it before that if you take Yahaya Bello, the most useless governor in Nigeria and make him Lagos state governor. He will be best performing.

Lagos houses all the banks head quarters in Nigeria. Home to head office of all oil companies, home to major importations. home to the busiest markets in Nigeria.

Move half of what Lagos enjoys to kogi and see whether Kogi will not compete.

People should learn to dimension things clearly.

statsense is posting this now to make Southwest the best economic region. yet when you say, go back to regionalism. Unity beggars association will start salivating

Lemme remind you that it is not a statutory requirements for banks, oil companies and other economy-driving businesses to base their HQ in Lagos.

You're free to establish your own bank and situate it's head office in Awka or Minna. Nobody will hold you for it. Businesses make decisions based on economic index and statistics.

Lagos is the trade center of Nigeria for so many reasons, and it has been so since precolonial era. Costal cities around the world enjoys this same advantage over other hinterland cities, so Lagos' case is no exception.

With a ready market of over 20 million residents, Lagos remains the state to beat when it comes to making money in the fastes way possible. All you need to become a millionaire here is to think of a business that's marketable to at least a thousand people, add a margin of 1k profit on your overhead cost and viola, you're a million Naira richer. 1k people is just 0.00005% of the total population.

If you're deliberate about making it big and quick, I don't think there's anywhere else you wanna be in Nigeria other than Lagos. It's the same reason every major businessman would want to establish their presence here. No be juju. Plus, there's stability and infrastructure here compared to other states.

I rest my case!

Before Nigeria,SW was the most progressive,at the inception of Nigeria and later years,SW was the most progressive and in recent time,SW still is the most progressive and will continue to be the most progressive because of its progressive and industrious people.
If it were not for the burden of Nigeria,SW would have been better than some Western nations.

How is SW tying you down to Nigeria?
Christmas is fast approaching now, when you will travel to your village, spend 1 or 2 weeks and use your own money to buy return tickets back to SW and also bring along 2 or more teenagers from your village with you.
