Ogun state alone generated more IGR than the top 3 states in the SE combined.
WOW!!!!

IamAtikulate:
Chinese are in Lagos, is Nigeria more developed than China?

😂😂😂😂

If you are wise, you would have understood what SE is doing to SW economy.

They will come to SW, work, make money and repatriate the fund to SE.

Capital flight...

😂😂😂

Keep wailing, SE will continue to send a lot of her workforce to SW to make money and repatriate.

IGR = Taxes

Anambra is a tax haven, in case you don't.

Again, SE leaders are more economically sound than their SW counterpart.

For instance, Alex Otti recently said that "Taxes are government share of the prosperity it creates."

Do you really understand what that means?

Have you wondered why SE Governors, especially Abia and Anambra keep lowering taxes?

You won't understand because you guys suck at economics.

Keep celebrating IGR which is not an economic indicator while your debts keep mounting.

You claim to generate the highest IGR in the country yet SW has the highest debt ratio.

It doesn't make sense.

If Anambra State government is tax-obsessed like Ogun and SW Governors, only Onitsha Main Market will generate the whole if whatever IGR Ogun gets.

You are making noise because of 120 billion.

FYI, 12 million daily transaction happens at Onitsha Main Market. The market annual transactions sits at around $3 billion, with 40% of this circulating as unbanked transaction.

You can verify these claims with a simple Google search.

If Anambra government taxes just 1% of these transaction, it'll generate $30 million annually, which is approximately 21 billion naira.

If government taxes 5%, it'll generate 105 billion from the market alone.

But Anambra has 48 markets.

So, trade and commerce in Anambra can generate more than Ogun IGR.

If you are underrating trade, then look at the evidence below.

Trade is the third largest component of Nigerian GDP, far ahead of manufacturing

The workforce is a productive force, they work to produce goods and services and at the end of the day, the government collects its share of their productivity and earnings.

So, who is benefiting from this productivity arrangement?

The SW or your village?

I go dash you a bowl of akpu when you figure it out.

You have to generate high revenue to be viable. Trade is not necessarily the biggest sector in a state. In Lagos ten percent of workers meaning income earners feeding families are working for the state government and if no revenue it would not have been possible. There is still banking, the OPS, that employ millions of the around five million workers in Lagos. So trading is a small component of any GDP. Production, services, transportation and etc are still there

You are really daft$nd unintelligent…….Brain drain in south East to South west……so IGR of Anambra nd Enugu dey compete with no 3 of SW called brown roof ?…..I laugh. Yoruba go soon colonize u guys

You are seeing a chart that shows that trade is the largest component of our GDP and you are still arguing.

CaptainAyub:
That is what they don’t know.
Lagos,Kano,etc are our hunting grounds😀😀
In 2013,I watched a broke Bini boy who learnt panel beating under an Igbo man turn to a millionaire in 8 months just from buying motor parts on credit from his former Oga’s suppliers in Onitsha and selling same in Damaturu where we all were then.
The guy then na Igbo already cos he spoke fluent Igbo and goes to Onitsha and back like going to toilet.

Niklaus398:
IGR simply means who was more efficient in collecting more taxes.
It has nothing to do with PER-CAPITA which I rate above all other things.
Infact, even Akwa ibom state self if they want they can collect more IGR than Rivers State if they are more efficient in that regards.

Stop doing shakara over Tax collection.
The west use Tax collection to raise shoulder and it is stupid and useless.

Use Per-Capita.
Use Health
Use education
Use employment etc not all that iGR nonsense.

To understand what I'm saying, Aba in Abia has less than 2% unemployment rate and yet they have the least IGR generation. That is to tell you what I'm talking about.

lawani:
If you have high revenue, there will be better health because of higher revenue, better education for the same reason and at least ten percent of people looking for employment will be catered for by government

Niklaus398:
Nigeria has had more higher revenue than even Rwanda and yet they have less than all u mentioned than Rwanda.

Shey I have used aba as a case study for u.

Aba is the only city in Nigeria bar Lagos that has less than 2% unemployment rate and yet generate far far less than even tiny Ebonyi state. That is to make u understand what I'm saying.

KwuoteYourFada:
so by your logic Tax is directly proportional to economic activities of a state? Yes tax has direct relationship with economic activities of citizens in a state unless that states is a slave workshop that generates profits for a minority that do not pay or under pay tax.


About your list,

Lol check out the top economy of the world did you them there? I hope you are not talking about the US? Many of countries listed there have higher standard of living for their citizens than the US - more highly quality social benefits than the US.


It shows one thing,

Tax isn't a proof of the economic activities of a state [b][/b]We were never talking about the economic activities of a state, we were always talking about economic activities within the state

Rather GDP is, that's why it's called Gross Domestic Product

That's why Anambra ranks above all your states apart from Lagos in GDP. [b]I am not speaking from a your state vs my state perspective. We are simply addressing statisense data that you continue to deny. You now want to turn it to a us vs you argument so as to give a dog whistle to the other ethnic warriors out there.
