This imbe.cile is still busy opening silly threads upon silly threads just to disparage the south east, a people he and his ancestors cant match or lace their boots in 50 lifetimes to come 😂

Re: VAT: Check The List Of top 12 States Receiving More VAT Than They Generate by Noneroone(m): 2:09pm On Nov 22, 2024
Fiscal anomaly. Most VATs are generated in Lagos as a result of the fact that most corporate headquarters reside there irrespective of where the goods are consumed. This is why it's more difficult to compute GDP of subnationals.
Re: VAT: Check The List Of top 12 States Receiving More VAT Than They Generate by SpiritMoney: 2:10pm On Nov 22, 2024
Bayelsa contributes more than it receives but it is poorer than imo state once you remove the oil and gas factor from both states. The latter is by far more productive. What does that tell you? 😂 😂... of course these ronu dunces will miss my point! undecided

How is this thread meant to disparage South East? Is it because they are always last in anything good?

If I am you too, I will always be bitter and sad. So I forgive you for your bitterness.

Walahi big suffer. Even the new model won’t still favor Lagos.

But their IGR is bae so I don’t even think they need this money like that.

Lagos wey dey expect almost 1.9trillion as IGR for 2025, wetin 40billion wan do them.

What's your evidence (proof) that his ancestors can't match or lace the boots of your people? Remember his ancestors were way advanced than yours. They had Kingdoms and prospering cities. It took the British to bring development around your forest dwelling, naked ancestors.
Even to this day, you see the locality of his ancestors as greener pastures.

Wonderful news. I want the south eastern dot states to line up from position 1 to 5 cool

How can we struggle to make money and then give half to the government to share some with other states/regions and they go ahead to loot the remaining.

I keep telling fellow igbos, whenever any of these useless statistics that involve IGR, TAX, REVENUE come up abeg, let us clap our hands for the southwest them. It's not easy sacrificing your sweat for the betterment of everyone else while the same people you're sacrificing for enjoy their own sweat in peace grin

Make una continue to dey donate una salary as VAT or TAX una hear? When sense fall ontop una head the rest of us wey dey enjoy una suffer go sit up wink

Be informed that the bulk of what south west earn is contributed by people from the south east.

So why are the headquarters there? Is there a law that says “all headquarters must be from Lagos”?

Una too Mumu..

Ask Lagos state what they have done with the billions given to them yearly and the trillion loan’s collected, they will start tribalism.

Lagos state is owing trillions of Naira?. Where is the money?. The IGR will still not be enough if given 💯.

By the way why will Lagos state have 100% Vat generated?.

Na their money they use build Lagos state?. The federal government should build the same thing in other state and relocate other headquarters evenly.

Lagos state VAT is Nigerians money!.

Why are they not continuing the bulk in their region?

How can people with nothing offer plenty?

So all the billionaires in SE don't pay VAT or they just don't buy any goods? You boast of more industries, more robust economy, HDI, GDP and what have you but when it's time to show evidence, you start giving excuse of how Lagos benefited from federal government and Ogun is benefiting from Lagos, you tell tales of how Awolowo took all Nigeria's money to Ibadan but forget that Calabar was once the capital and Abuja is presently the capital.

My advice is that you take who lead you serious and stop meddling in the politics of people doing better in life as people than you and your people.

Take your elections serious.
Truth be told. The SE is way behind any region in Southern nigeria and you are the loudest. You guys are not learning because you can't learn while you are talking. At some point y'all need to STFU

VAT calculation in Nigeria is also a fraud. With headquarters in Lagos, even the VAT collected from MTN phone call in Zamfara will be credited to Lagos.
Isn't that a fraud?
Same with other companies

But they refuse to contribute to where they originated from. When you say something like this, you are simply saying your people are useless at home but they manage to behave when they go outside their region.

This is why they want to create additional parasite State in South East, so they can be collecting free money from FG despite contributing nothing to government coffers.. the least VAT, least IGR, least everything in Nigeria is South East. yet they are agitating for extra State creation.

I just told you why your vat statistics is deceptive and you're acting disturbed. No law stops where headquarters are located but the problem arises when VATs are collected on that basis.
