So Oyo contributed N272 billion and received less than half while Imo contributed N4 billion and received almost 18 times same amount. Is that supposed to be a state or a syphoning structure? Anambra, Imo, Enugu, Ebonyi, and Abia should be merged as one state. Wtf.

God bless Tinubu on the Tax Reform Bill. Very soon, the Bayelsa model will apply where contribution and receipt are almost the same. Monkey wey dey work no complain, na the baboons wey dey chop come dey complain of marginalisation.

Let's not even talk about Lagos before some economic migrants claim they developed Lagos. Lagos contributed 2.7 trillion and received 460 billion.

Where is the incentive for states to work on developing their economies,why should a gov bother when he can get over 1000% from his paltry contribution......there is absolutely no incentive to work.....also how can Ogun and gombe be equal on vat contributions,something is definitely not right considering the huge economic activities going on in Ogun compared to Gombe.....pls can anyone help me understand?

Southeast shouldn't be generating any stupid vat Nigeria as a useless country does not deserve anything from south east because they never build anything in south east all of una papa dey ment

See Igbo man dé fending slavery.

Your papa life don spoil finish.

I blame all these military government creating all these parasites states that cannot sustain themselves.
Imagine Imo state remitting 4b to collect 70b.

Don't get twisted tax reform will not revive some states because they are used to feeding bottle funds from Abuja

What could be the reason why imo state is so so useless,
What is their population pls ??

Nadingo:
So North is not even the real parasites but Ndi developers? Wonders shall never end

We are already begging Davido's papa to go to Imo and show them how real investment is done. Be your in-law's keeper.

The laziest governor award goes to...
Uzodinma of Imo state!


Blockhead as governor!


According to the statistics above.


Imo:
N 4bn to collect N70bn.

Highest scam of the century.
If you doubt it, check ✔️ the percentage difference.
You go hail

This is mere robbing Peter to Pay Paul....It's okay. It's well

THE IGBO PEOPLE THAT WANT BIAFRA, ALWAYS BEHAVING AS IF NIGEWRIANS ARE DEPENDING ON THEM. DOT NATION IN BUHARI;S VOICE

If the so-called dot nation leave your states mostly Lagos and Rivers their IGR will drop drastically

yashau:
Imo state yaff ripped everybody 😂 contributed 4 collect 70. That's daylight robbery 👌

Thr guy is just hopeless & useless. He doesn't even stay in the state, he has joined his indigenes to migrate out of the state due to insecurity. He should be ashamed of himself

Una see 4 billion una no happy don't worry next time na kobo una go see and make nothing happen to the allocation o...the 70 sef too small

Very soon everybody go return to their states.This hullabaloo about Lagos will die silently.

EBEk101:
Lagos generates substantial revenue because many multi-billion taxpayers, despite operating in other states, pay taxes to the Lagos State Government due to their head offices being located in Lagos. If the proposed tax bill is passed, it could compel these companies to pay taxes to the states where their operations are based, rather than to Lagos. This could significantly impact Lagos' revenue and shift the financial dynamics among the states.

States like, delta, rivers, Akwa Ibom, Kano, kaduna etc

that's why northern states like Kano and Kaduna govts, unlike others, kept quiet on the tax reform bill, they knew it was swinging in their favour

Abia and imo with all the billionaires?

3ice9ce:
Imo state.
If only they could tax hookup. If only.

Imolites were deceived and leadership fixed by APC has led to her diminished economy. Imo had much better VAT generation under Okorocha but it wasn't used as a parameter then but now that they've used insecurity and inconsistency to damage the economy it has become a factor.

. I swear no be small laugh I don laugh. Even yahoo boys no rip pass like this o

Lagos will be like, is Imo a state like me

So Ekiti state generated more VAT than Enugu, IMO, Ebonyi, Abia?

Tax reform is welcome

Orch1981:
And you refuse to let the parasite go

If you are really serious about your going, you all should first of evacuate your people from all states in Nigeria back to your region

Something is absolutely not adding up in this report. Is the FACC funded with VAT alone? This report is wuruwuru, how about the funds from crude oil and gas sales, where are they?

From the report, it seems like VAT is just a fraction of what makes up the allocations.
It's mischievous to only account for VAT leaving out the main sources that fund Nigeria. Those that release these figures are hardened criminals.

Fiscus105:
Contributed according to locations of Headquarters and not actual amount.

Oyo got half of what was contributed. That doesn't support your argument.

VAT is largely paid by industries.so those states accommodated the big industries, protected them best, appeal to them most, and provided for the more than others. It is fair they get rewardedfor the above listed effort.

They should also account for the gas sold from Imo. They're not telling us everything we need to know.

Lagos does not contribute 2,5 trillion. Consumption VAT for other states are being allocated to lagos because many head offices of business reside in Lagos.

You are deliberately trying to divert our attention. Your response is not in tandem with what I asked for. I ask that the funds from the sale of crude oil and gas from imo, abia and Anambra be accouted for.

The makers of this report are trying to make it seems like Nigeria is funded with VAT whereas VAT is just a tiny fraction of what is sustaining the country.

There's no reaction without an action

Stop speculating, initiate an action that will cause the reaction of the threat you seek for and let see and kiss your IGR goodbye
