•Slipped from 16th to 20th on the IGR table

Osun State has slipped to the worst Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) performer in the Southwest region of Nigeria, according to the Nigeria Bureau of Statistics (NBS).

In 2023, Osun generated significantly less revenue than its Southwest counterparts, with Ekiti state, once at the bottom with N17billion, now surpassing Osun with an impressive N34 billion as against Osun's N27billion.

This decline is alarming, considering Osun's ranking as 16th in the country with an IGR of N24.6 billion in 2022 during the previous administration of ex-Governor Adegboyega Oyetola.

However, in the latest assessment, Osun has dropped to 20th position, fueling criticism from the opposition that the current administration is ineffective and hindering progress.

Recall the Senator Ademola Adeleke government was harshly criticised last year when some officials of the government were identified collecting the state revenue into their personal accounts.

Hahahaha

Igbos are heavily reliant on FG

They would rather grow other states' IGR than theirs

Shame!

Audio Billionaires everywhere.

Ade de Dancer a.k.s F9 Parallel.

What do you expect from a dullard?

Adeleke will lose the next governorship election because of his poor performance in Osun state

That's shameful! Revenue should not be decreasing in these hard times. The governor needs to revolutionise the revenue collection process. Lagos is a good place to learn from.

It's surprising that Zamfara with enormous mineral resources is one of poorest on the list. Ditto for Nassarawa and Plateau.

Restructuring is the key to progress.

Operation let us extract maximum tax from ordinary people so that govt officials will have enough to steal. Foolish people bragging about my igr is bigger than yours, yet don't have good roads, free quality health care, free and quality education etc. Foolish people who want their govs to kill the citizens with taxes. No wonder commissioners are buying 450 million maybach. Ode

Yet Osun has one of the highest debt-profiles nationwide, as a result of that undercover-lunatic named Aregbesola

Revenue is not decreasing it's being diverted to fictitious expense-heads in order to pay the bills of private entities that are totally unconnected to government

What you're experiencing is a novel method of government corruption and money laundering

Even if we are suffering and shouting ebi pawa we will always tax our very meagre resources to donate the biggest IGR to the federal government so they can share it among all the other states of the federation

Ogbomosho, just a community in Oyo state, probably generates more money than the whole of Imo state, no cap! I say make una no dey take people from SE serious anymore when dem tok here. Na achievement to them say we dey engage them!

That said, Osun State governor is the most unserious of governors. I don't know what that man is doing in that state other than dancing

kettykin:

Ogun has a cargo airport. The state doesn't need conventional airport because it is close to an international airport in Lagos.

Only one of the three Southeast states you mentioned deserve to have an airport. That's because their region is very small and not as big as Oyo. So what's the need of them all having an airport when they are not too distant from each other? Are the airports even viable?

Lmaooo IGR people... What's my business if you people tax yourself to death

IMO GDP is almost twice that of Oyo state

I guys should keep over taxing yourself

We are building GDP... Make una continue to build IGR ooh

Osun own don finish.

When Adeleke should be strategizing on how to generate revenue, he don dance forget governance.

He promised he will turn Osun to America and investors will be trooping it. Where is Davido again?

Fijogbowo Jackson, how far?

It Is Oyo state not Ogun state you have been bragging about for some weeks now.

Learn on how to be consistent with your arguments.

I know u lack basic English comprehension...

Oga IMO state GDP is almost twice as OYO GDP and that's a fact

IMO GDP is almost twice Ogun GDP

IMO GDP is almost same as Ogun and Oyo combined

None of those above statement is mutually exclusive and are all factually correct... Before u say rotting and spaghettification are the same again Lmaooo
