It is to do with population. The NE is far more than the SE in population and population is what brings economic activity

This submission cancels the agitation for creation of additional state because economically wise and and landmass wise SE is not qualified.
Now you have hit the nail on the head

Some will claim it is their brothers helping other zones to generate funds...lols

LegendHero:
You never get update bro. They are now asking you to remove Ogun state too.

That Twitter thread is very funny.

LegendHero:
Funniest thing be say, after Lagos, na Oyo be the highest. Even higher than Ogun state.

When the guy know that reality, he go change mouth say make we remove Oyo too.

What I don’t understand is that how
exactly is North East generating more value added tax than South East? Is it that bad in the South East?

That sit at home really spoil things

Oh my God. Abi my eyes dey pain me? So even as Lagos was removed, SW still generated more than X2 of what SE generated. They are even worse than all the other zones. E choke! I've always said it that SW is the most advanced region in this country but would they agree even with evidence wey full ground?

43Ronin:
Do you understand the impact of this VAT on the lives of ordinary people in those regions? I mean 4 a struggling economy with 80 million unemployed people,you are happy that VAT is increasing the cost of living? Going by this VAT statistics that means its better for me to live in the SE than SW or SS because the cost of living is low. This is not something that should be celebrated.

yes, shinedu it is better you live in SE……always turning logic on its head when the stats doesn’t massage their bruised ego

These lots are funny...

With all the VAT,
No toilets....they practice open defecation.

No clean water......statisense has the stats and they were crying about it VDM is coming to give them water soon.

They still cry ebimpawaa with all the VAT bigger than jupiter

How can these ones be celebrating VAT?
Are they educated at all?

Fake informations
Go to the data website not this Rubish

seunmsg:
Yes, if you factor in the total generated and collected by Lagos and Rivers. But I don’t blame folks like you, the least knowledgeable are always the loudest to abuse and condemn.

What is this one saying
Is the topic not about removing Lagos and rivers from the list?
Na wa o
You're a degree holder abi

He is right, you are wrong on this, think again.
Leave pride oh.

akpumping7720:
You are absolutely correct. There will be a false result on the amount distributed if Lagos and Rivers aren't on the list. But the bone of contention is the amount generated even after removing Lagos from SW and Rivers from SS. Emphasis on the amount generated not amount distributed after the removal.

You're the only one with common sense here
However, all these statistics about VAT cannot be deemed genuine as long as VAT collection is still being done at the point of production instead of consumption. That does not mean the statistics will change but the figure will definitely take a hit

What do you know
Go and sit down abeg

lawani:
There is no VAT on mere bank transactions

Including government contracts payments?

Kukutente23:
I don't know what this thread shows other than poor reasoning ability of the Cable crew

The amount recieved and the amount contributed does not match so what is responsible for the mismatch if you are considering regions with Lagos and Rivers excluded?

The mismatch shows that there is a factor not being considered in this analysis

Thank you sir.

How do you talk of regions and yet you said remove Lagos and Rivers?

Are they regions on their own?

Lets have what they generated and what they received.

This is sheer manipulation!

Very funny thread.

It's really funny because one person is talking and replying himself with alternative accounts. YOLO.

There we go again.

I really don't know what to do with you.

Listen carefully.

You said the total generated must equal total distributed. This is incorrect. As Seunmsg rightly pointed out, that would only be the case when you consider both Lagos and Rivers States. This is because the topic talks about what is generated outside of those states. It does not talk about what is distributed, what is distributed is a total sum inclusive of those states. This is terribly simple and yet you went ahead to talk about University education in disputing it. This is too elementary.

There is this unnecessary combativeness over simple things which if you are not careful will lead you to make elementary errors which an otherwise sharp mind such as yours should not make.

Enjoy sha.

Omo look at south East- I reserve my comment

Many of of them resides and does business in Lagos and Rivers

I'm not sure you're a good student of maths and proportionality. In fact you're not
You present total generated with the exception of two states then you go ahead and add the two states when it comes to total distributed and you claim you're presenting statistics. What quantitative mechanism backs this up?
Lemme guess. Mathematical bigotry? That's a new field and I guess you're a professor along with your mentor whom you so gladly suck up to

aariwa:
Igbos owns more than 60% of those businesses following closely after the big multinational coprations doing business in Nigeria

This is one of the reasons people don't take ibos serious
I don't know how you came about 60% of businesses in Nigeria but let's entertain your fantasy. The questions are :
Why are you not doing those businesses in the SE ? This might be another self confession that the SE is a dead zone.
Why are your brothers and sisters all over the country seeking economic opportunities ? If you really own 60% percent of businesses.
You guys must love Nigeria so much that you decided not to invest in your region 😂
They say charity begins at home except this doesn't apply to the SE 😂

Ttalk:
The only thing that will solve this parasitic advantage of our lousy neighbors is to cancel the feeding bottle arrangement and allow everyone cater for itself and give certain percentage to the centre.

The same lazy region are still the one that put pressure in other region's infrastructure yet they won't appreciate the kind gesture of the benevolent neighbor

One Nigeria is actually for every Nigerian, there is nothing like neighbor within this territory.
Every territory belongs to the Federal government.

I mean, even if your people wake up one day and decide to evict the so called neighbors, they can't be able to, they would have the federal government to challenge.

lawani:
It is what you produce and sell that you pay VAT from. If you produce in Oyo, VAT paid is credited to Oyo. Hotels pay VAT for instance, can it be credited to another state?. It is only the telecoms companies especially that people say the VAT should not be credited to one state

Are saying all goods manufactured in Oyo are consumed in Oyo?

Are you saying Oyo dont take anything out of the state to other states or regions?

As the famous Chinese saying goes: parasites will always make the loudest noises 🤣😂🤣.

Perhaps you are missing the fundamental point that all the sums generated proceed to a consolidated fund before being distributed. This means all funds from all 36 states and even the FCT. Therefore the total distributed, by law, can only ever include all states.

Whereas the total generated by the premise of this thread which seeks how much is generated outside of Lagos and Rivers will naturally and necessarily be less.

Elementary Watson, elementary.

Enjoy though.
A pity though.

jmoore:
Which region has the highest poverty rate in Nigeria?

How can southeast have lowest VAT but it is north that is headquarters of poverty?

Dot the i's and cross the t's.

More money does not translate to development.

The problem is that 60% of south east businesses are outside south east.

Remove South easterners from all the regions quoted. Make them all return to the South east to do their businesses. After that make una call result. Only Christmas holiday and every other region dey dry for one full month. Check the revenue during those periods make we find out something.

Maybe you're also unaware of the technical aspect of VAT collection that says it is expected to be collected at point of consumption which is not the case in Nigeria.
Meanwhile if you remove the funds generated by Lagos and Rivers, the total available for distribution will be less what actually enters the purse you highlighted. How then is it logical to fall back on the funds you excluded when calculating the funds distributed. Do you not see that the proportionality that was set out to achieve has been lost?

Think man!! Think!!!

Its really simple.

Look at it this way.

1. By law, the total distributed is always the total from the entire country.
2. This thread seeks how much is generated from the country less two states.

That can never be the same sum.

Thats all you need to know.

And the real parasites are the most lousy
