GBTYO:
Your SE only comes alive for 2 weeks every year during the Christmas holidays.

The low vat earnings from the SE expose low consumption levels and a lack of commercial activities.

Low tax earnings is because there is hardly any real formal sector . Your business model is petty trade that falls under the disorganised and grey sector of the economy.

Solodu has been bemoaning his inability to effectively tax businesses in his state and even declared that majority of what the state gets as revenue is from the federal purse and if he had to share to every man, woman and child in Anambra as it comes every month, it won't amount to more than #1,500 per head.

Real development is driven by taxes that are generated from a healthy commercial and economic base.

You have none of this and that's why even the north you were labelling parasites generate more from their own economic activities than your entire region.


There's nothing in the SE and your net negative migration proves this
Why are you crying 😭

Leave it for us na grin 😂😂

Besides what have your state achieved more than south east. Brown roofs and skull mining business 😄😄

They is o. Just wait until Lagos Ogun and Oyo start coming up with environmental excuses to intercept those profit they are sharing with parasitic regions.
Excuse that will never come as far a one Nigeria is concerned

We go chop tax money after all the high vat is because of the collection formula when the tax reform is out some of these states won't be collecting that muchgrin

Even at that ...look at how your GRA look like! Is it that you guys can't even put a decent roofing sheets?

The General Gas Junction-Kolapo Ishola GRA-Iyana Church
There is no market in Kolapo Ishola.
Pictures are deceitful.

LoL...is that not pettiness...why can't they at least fix the zinc
There is no GRA in Ibadan that has "brown roof" zinc.
GRA is different from the market you posted.

Another village is Akala that is more developed than all your 5,10,20 houses villages.
Most of these Ibadan villages have been turned to sprawling,beautiful towns unlike your 10 houses villages that remain fixated in the old village system.

Are you from Okpoko grin

Ibadan brown roof.

Because Nigeria is robbing Peter to pay Paul. Collecting SW VAT and distributing it among North and parasitic South East.

Re: Why VAT And Taxes Don’t Define Development! by ehikwe22: 3:41pm On Jan 27, 2025
They just want to ridicule the Niger Delta that's feeding Nigeria. How many percent of our budget is being covered by VAT? Every year, our budget is benchmarked on oil prices. Immediately after budget presentation, they'll continue with their propaganda to make it seem like VAT is our major source of revenue

Upon all their high vat collected and generated it's expected that ibadan should purge it self of brown roofs retardation unlike what Is obtained in southeast.
There's brown rid in the East too

productivity isn't equal to development


Some villages are known for fishing.... that is productivity but that doesn't mean the village is developed
So what is equal to development?

I laugh at people that makes fun of brown roof in south west we have history and we can trace our root,most of this houses are Ancestral home built many years ago there are many new areas you can go and see mordern buildings.

Even in the much talked about develop countries they have ancestral home they are preserving for future generations to enable them know their root, not only that it has become tourists attractions that generate millions of money for them.

It's people that doesn't have root and history that will not have ancestral homes.

Re: Why VAT And Taxes Don’t Define Development! by UpaIweka: 3:56pm On Jan 27, 2025
This write up is display of madness at it peak especially in relating the low taxation to igbo state.

Cam the write explain what economy activities occurs in the igbo state with low taxation compare to any other place in Nigeria with higher tax ?

This is how hopelessly senseless igbo juxtapose irrelevant narrative to arrive at senseless conclusion just to prove they are right while in actual case they are exceedingly n excisessively wrong.

Nigeria as a society is hardly tax no matter how you look at it so what exactly is the point of the foolish writer ? Only one to justify inefficiency of Igbos state at generating IGR.

The mad fool did not include that IGR does not necessarily have to be sources mainly feom taxation. Oloshious fellow justifying lunacy out of tribal bigotry. Any way, you have ipob fools to swallow your madness hook line n sinker not to those of us Nigerians with functional brain.

That's good for Ibadan
It means more revenue from tourists
I expect more people will migrate to Ibadan to sell gala and lacasera to the tourists coming to view the world heritage sites just like in Vienna, Austria
The gala should be checked for white substance and make sure it's not fake
