How Much Did Tinubu Save For Lagos State After His Tenure by obonujoker(op): 12:55pm On Jun 10, 2025
So, Peter Obi saved billions for Anambra state after his infrastructural strides.

Now, let's check something.

Tinubu did not build brewery, did not build airport, did not build flyover, did not build control the flood in Lagos state, did not build stadium, did not build new schools, Tinubu did not beautify Lagos(Fashola Did), etc.

How much did he then save for Lagos State, as there are no major Projects done by Tinubu, and seeing that Lagos is richer than Anambra

Please, leave politics aside and argue constructively. We're checking something.

To start with, Peter Obi lied about saving any money

Someone who couldn't generate ordinary N5bn as IGR for 8 years claiming of saving money, how logical?

Speaking of president Tinubu, Lagos IGR was raised from N600m to nothing less than N3bn monthly. Yes monthly.

Meaning president Tinubu generated 200% in 1 year of what took Peter Obi 8 years to generate .

I understand the economy of both states are different but just use the margin of increase compared to what Peter Obi generated

Also remember, Lagos state monthly money from FG was seized for years, yet more LCDA was created funded by the money generated internally without relying on FG's money.

That's unprecedented

There are so many legacies, achievements, success attached to president Tinubu's name in Lagos success, do Peter Obi even have any legacies in Anambra state, what projects that he started that can be referenced to him today? Which major projects or developments?

Apple 🍎 and Mango🥭 are not the same. Peter Obi should be compared with some local government chairmen in Lagos state in terms of performance.

Tinubu borrowed and looted Lagos treasury and left a billion dollars debt at the end of his tenure.
While Peter Obi left cash without debt.

For Pete's sake, Lagos is Nigeria’s commercial capital with seaports, oil company HQs, multinationals, and the densest tax base. An Internally Generated Revenue increase there is expected, not miraculous. Comparing Anambra to Lagos is unnecessary and attempts to shift the narrative.


Peter Obi didn’t just increase IGR; he did so without borrowing and still left billions in reserves. That’s financial discipline, not noise-making. If Tinubu’s economic prowess is proven, why is the naira in such a sorry state and the economy in doldrums under his presidency?

This lie of Lagos igr being 600m has been debunked several times but APC brainwashed horde keep repeating it like it's a fact.
Lagos IGR in 1999 was N1.2bn per month and it even dropped to 900m per month in his first full year in office

This is another lie
It was the LG funds that were seized for 3 years due to the illegal LGs created. You can't blame OBJ for refusing to support illegality. Tinubu has also been withholding LG funds of states since he assumed office
Re: How Much Did Tinubu Save For Lagos State After His Tenure by ObaOfYorubaLand: 1:57pm On Jun 10, 2025
He saved the way he's saving for Nigeria today.

He left 10 trillion debt for Lagos state.


He will leave 10 zillion debt for Nigeria before he leaves office.

Thank you.

Amounts left in Anambra handover note:

N12b & $50m in Access bank.
N12b & $50m in Fidelity Bank.
N12b & $50m in Diamond Bank.

Total: N36b & $150m in 3 banks.

Eleven years on, & no EFCC case. I know credibility when I see one; Peter Obi is him.

If he couldn't generate reasonable IGR, struggled to pay basic minimum wage at some stage, where did he get the money he saved?

Let's be logical here

Answer that logical question. If he couldn't generate N5bn as IGR for 7-8 years , where did he get the money he saved?

If we’re being logical, then let’s follow logic all the way. Obi increased Anambra’s IGR by over 60% during his tenure, from about ₦500 million to over ₦1.2 billion monthly. He also left ₦75 billion in savings with no debt when he left office something your Tinubu can’t boast of

Struggled to pay wages? He paid off pensions and salaries without borrowing. Can you say the same for Tinubu’s Lagos that still runs on heavy debt and opaque Alpha Beta deals? Let’s debate with facts, not propaganda.
