Why is Abia mentioned first?

The usual propaganda of directing attention to the state. Those with gullible mind will think Abia is the highest while Lagos is 2nd..

Abia is not even among top 10 by expenditure in the body of the report but as usual, the propaganda champs have to spotlight the state.
You see your life
Instead of younto calls a spade a spade. What are they refreshing or recruiting for. How many workers itecruited by Abia to have budgeted that huge sums of money for?

Omenlon:
check the refreshments spending of Abia and that of Lagos if you are a serious person. Lagos work force is more than all the work force of the entire South East states combined.
I can bet you that figure for lagos was a typo it is clearly in billions not millions.

Overall, Abia spent 10billion while Lagos spent 162billion. A difference of 152billion! What's Sanwo Olu eating?!!

Propaganda will fade one day
The said Lagos spent 1.23m on refreshment, which kind of lie is that? I can bet you the amount is 1.23b

Ondo state alone is richer than 5 ibo states put together.
But Ondo has a lower IGR than Anambra state.

Of course that was suppose to be billion. That would be the only way the figure will align.

Western states on looting spree. Lagos is one huge close spending state without showing what's inside grin
Abia, with monthly IGR of less than N2B, spent 168.38m on refreshments, while Lagos spent 1.23m on refreshments Yet you're crying for SW. You people's case is beyond redemption.

You're not looking at the numbers...easily deceived. While others were spending 10 to 50 billions, Lagos is spending about 160 billion but they did not say whats contained inside but they deceive you guys with 1.2 million for refreshments.

Whats inside that blackbox of 160+ billions?

Nigeria is a very dull country. How will someone claimed he spend over 900billion on just refreshments and travel and expect people to believe. Well, some are still believing. You guys should continue cos it's obvious we are beyond redemption

helinues:
Just imagine

Yet some of the listed states are still paying N18k as minimum wage oo
I hope you know understand that corruption and wickedness is the reason some have refused to pay minimum wage and not because they don't have the capacity to pay

Abia is somewhat the lowest but it's mentioned for traffic and to fuel tribalism and Seun allows this nonsense to continue. Seun I curse you and all your mods today. Your children will face hardship that you're fuelling today. Bastards! Useless bigoted forum

Crimecity:
But Helinues, you created more than 1million threads that states can't pay 400k minimum wage😂


In other news,
2024, Abia State spent N10.92bn

Anambra State disbursed N9.91bn

Enugu (N7.51bn)

Ebonyi (14.95bn)

Lagos State disbursed N189.62bn

Ogun (N47.12bn)

Ondo (N31.12bn)

Osun (N24.39bn)

Oyo (N40.12bn)

Omoh South West governors are thieves oo.

Even Aiyedatiwa that just entered has spent money more than Anambra, Abia, Enugu😂.

Thieves but claim sophisticators
Meaning South East governors are baby thieves

Noneroone:
southwest governors are thieves.
And other governors run charity organizations? Nope... they fill their pockets and their pockets only. I would not differentiate between politicians in one part of the country and the other. They are all very guilty until proven innocent.

You didn't add Ekiti there, can you imagine small Ekiti where nothing is happening spending 32bn on recurrent expenditure ?
South West governors I hail una o

MakindeHassan:
The poorest states are even spending more. See Ebonyi and Osun. See Gombe! What concerns Gombe with that amount of travel?!
What do you have to say about Ekiti, Ekiti is the poorest state in the south but look at their humongous amount

I think there is an undeclared war against Abia state government by Yoruba media and other federal government agency due to the transformation going on in that state.
You need to read punch newspaper's editorial concerning the Aba killing to understand what I mean.
The hatred and envy is real

ShootThemAll:
Why are you giving out wrong data about Abia state and using it as a headline and with no certified link. It's definitely targetted at Abia State nothing else.

What's going on in this Nairaland is a media regional war. SW trying to paint SE and SS black by all means even Abia State that is doing far better than them.

We really have a long way to go in this country.... Even the so called youth like Hellinues suffering from Stockholm Syndrome has sworn they will keep on eating crumbs from dirty politicians that has no iota of feelings towards them and that of their children.
You said it all
Read the punch editorial on the Aba killings and you will shiver

Lionize:
Prejudiced heading. You just mentioned Abia to make news. Their recurrent exp of 10b is least after Enugu (7B) and Anambra (9B) . Akwa Ibom is 46B and Adamawa 23b. So why just name Abia and Lagos. It should have been Lagos and other states. For Lagos, its economy is humongous and we are not expecting less.
That was how the main stream media carried the news, it is not the OP's making
