ultron:
Now to topic.

Truth,looking at Nigeria's source of income. The South East is not a major contributor. But Igbos don't claim SE provides much. Op lied on that one.
.
.
Now let me answer it this way.
.
NE,NC,NW(RESOURCES)- LOW
PEOPLE(Human Index)- LOW
.
.
SW- GOOD (Due to Lagos and recently Ogun)
PEOPLE(Human Index)- LOW
.
.
SE- LOW
PEOPLE(Human Index)- HIGH
.
.
SS- HIGH
PEOPLE(Human Index)- LOW
.
.
That's just a summary. OP I hope you're better informed now. Don't be a tribalist: It stunts your growth mentally.

PS-Op,in SW(Lagos) apart from multinationals the Igbos drive the economy of Lagos.

The Insurance companies in Lagos.
The Transport business of intra-city transportation
The petrol stations
These three businesses ALONE that are VIRTUALLY in the hands of the yorubas in Lagos contribute more than all that Igbos contributes daily to Lagos businesses and commerce.
Stop you people that don't live in Lagos should stop this your falsehood you peddle daily on Nairaland.

Yet at the mere mention of Biaf... many Yorubas whine, weep and wail as if their lives sustenance is being taken away from them.
And yet many of you earn a living on pay-per-post basis just to attempt to scuttle the call for self-determination by Igbos. And yet you lots out of fear of being left behind with your masters currently make a living out of lies, falsehood, noise-making, propaganda, abuse and slurs against the Igbo Nation.

Do well to find some other c0ck and bull stories to tell...

If they are not producing anything, then why not let them go

Kini Big deal

Please lalasticlala, seun, obinoscopy, mynd44 move this to fp maybe we might get meaningful and matured contribution, because after almost exhuasting two pages we have not get any meaningful contribution so far from our brothers from SE instead of them to attack my arguement they choose to attack my characte and we will also appreciate your owns personal contributions.


Please I dont want this to lead to an E-war, even though i know it will

Mature contribution only if you know you are a tribal fanatic don't bother to make any contribution please.
Salient and substantial fact and constructive arguement only.


It has been the norm of the day people from southeastern part of the countary labeling people from all other 4 regions NW, NE, NC AND SW of the nation as parasite feasting on their SE/SS region AND HOW LAGOS WAS DEVELOPED WITH THEIR OIL MONEY, HOW ABUJA WAS BUILD WITH THEIR RESOURCES, HOW KADUNA AND KANO WAS TRANSFORM WITH THEIR OIL MONEY, which is far from the reality on ground, which have made me to conclude that our brothers from southeastern part of the countary arived at this their general believe base on their emotional belive and delusional hallucination or is it just a deceit to decieve uninformed Nigerians, or are they the uninform ones?

ON CRUDE OIL PRODUCTION

oil is our major source of foreign exchange at 90%, and our major source of revenue at 75% before the global glut in oil price at $100+ to below $36 per barrel which lead to a meager 18% source of revenue for 2016 appropriation bill but still remain our major source of forex at a percentage we dont yet know, do to lack of available data.

OIL PRODUCTION PER STATE



1 - Akwa Ibom 31.4 %
2 - Delta 21.6 %
3 - Rivers 21.4 %
4 - Bayelsa 18.0%
5 - Ondo 3.7 %
6 - Edo 2.3 %
7 - Imo 1.1 %
8 - Abia 0.6 %

OIL PRODUCTION BY REGION
SS 94.6 %
SW 3.7 %
SE 1.7 %

four SS state of Akwa Ibom, Delta, Rivers, Bayelsa produces 92% of our national oil production.


www.nairaland.com/2708477/oil-producing-states-nigeria-facts

FIRS

Most of the non oil revenue is geneated in lagos and ogun state at about 50% and 75% VAT (not sure if the figure are correct.
)

NIMASA

Most of the activites of NIMASA
Is restricted to area that have access to sea namely; lagos, ogun, ondo, delta, bayelsa, rivers, Akwa ibom, cross river.

FAAN

FAAN generate 75% of its revenue in Lagos and the remaining 25% is generated mostly in Abuja, kano, porth harcourt airports and little contribution by other states.


COSTUM SERVICE

No south eastern state share boundary with any countary and it those not have direct access to sea, so little or no costum duty is being generated in Enugu international airport.

most of the costum revenues is being generated in lagos (dont have the data). state of ogun, oyo, niger, kebbi. sokoto, kano, jigawa, borno, cross river are the other state that custom generate revenue from do to their boudary to other sovereign state.

porth harcourt, abuja and lagos airport leads in the airport that generate most of the costum revenue in airport other airports generate little or no custom revenue.

So base on all these indices its only the state of Lagos, Akwa ibom, Delta, Rivers, Bayelsa and Ogun that can stand as a soveriegn nation and compete with any of the most develop nation in africa base on the reality on ground and not emotional believe of some people.



So I have been wondering how is other zones feasting on the resources of SE as always claim by our brothers from that region.
So I ask, What Is The Contribution Of SOUTH EASTern (Anambra, imo, abia, ebonyi and enugu) state To Fg Revenue? that make them claim and believe that they are the one feeding the whole nation and other region feast on them.

salient, fatual and substantial contribution only please.
arguement base on hearsay, emotional belief and sentiment believe are unwelcome.

I tend to learn new things


.

Igbo doesn't contribute anything like the Yoruba will say...then you guys should stop been apprehensive when IPOB and Biafra is been mentioned


Maybe coscharis ,ibeto,capital oil, slit ,Linda ikeji, Bella naija ,zinox , emzor pharmaceutical, maybe orange drugs ,maybe erisco food maybe trade fair maybe alaba market maybe diamond bank ,fidelity banks and many igbo firms based only in Lagos are not contributing anything be it tax or employment

Maybe ladipo spare parts are not doing anything ....this is just only in Lagos ..I have not started calling other parts



I wonder why people are stupid

realjoker:
please dont derail this thread with this ur post that those not answer the question. incase if u missed the question. what is the contribution o southeastern states to fg revenue?

You should be asking for regionalism with fiscal federalism let's compete

And hope you know that igbo villages and cities are far more ahead in terms of development even educationally


What do Yoruba contribute ...absolutely nothing


Lagos isn't Yoruba land but owned by all nugerians

So don't claim Lagos

MrEverest:
Since you want to disprove already known facts, the onus is on you to bring forth evidence to back your thesis! I wont do that for you, simply go to FAAN website or google & type "annual traffic volume of airports in Nigeria" 2ndly Also go to Apapa Wharf, Tin Can or Onne ports & go through the manifest to know the people that controls bulk of our imports, what do you think is the reason why Igbos dominate the clearing & forwarding sector? It is you that is peddling beer palour gist!!!

Oga,the op is not talking about ibos here(ibos dey ghana now),what the op is asking is, what does the SE as a region contribute to the revenue of the FG.

Semantics! You cant divorce the two wether SE or Igbos, the same way SW connotes Yoruba. He was querying Igbos contribution in Nigeria viz-a-viz standing on their own. Eriscobonpet wont have built the biggest totato factory in Africa at Lagos, neither will zinox, nor emzor, capital oil, ibeto, ASPAMDA etc. The revenue from FAAN, Nimasa, customs etc coming from the Lagos/ogun axis will be drastically reduced while those in the East will be greatly enhanced!

I notice some quietness from my Igbo brother on this thread. It truly calls for sober reflections. Igbos have invested far more outside SE than they have ever invested in their homeland. There most be a change of attitude for any meaningful contribution to FG purse to happen. In other way round, one may not blame an average Igbo business man who continues to invest outside of his region. Perhaps the environment is not conducive enough for him to do business thus the migration to more business friendly regions. Business men will always invest where conducive environment is guaranteed and opportunity to market his product.

I suggest we begin to demand accountability, massive infrastructural development and security from our govt.

I really do not want to toll the ''marginalization'' school of thought as reason for SE situation because our politicians have always been at the helm of affairs in this nation. What have they done to vitalize the region. Igbos were almost in total control in last regime why not making the dredging of Niger river a priority then. We seems to be the architect of our fortune.


I just made my neutral opinion which I am entitled to. I shall reply only polite response.

PentiumPro:
The Insurance companies in Lagos.
The Transport business of intra-city transportation

These three businesses ALONE that are VIRTUALLY in the hands of the yorubas in Lagos contribute more than all that Igbos contributes daily to Lagos businesses and commerce.
Stop you people that don't live in Lagos should stop this your falsehood you peddle daily on Nairaland.

Even transportation, insurance & petrol stations you mentioned, Igbos are well grounded there too same as banks etc. Igbos are about the same proportion in D corporate world in Lagos as Yorubas, I bet you to go to any Diamond bank, fidelity, uba, zenit etc & check D name tags of their staff & tell me if there arent more Igbos than any other group. except cabs, there are many Igbos driving danfo buses too, that they speak owoda, bole, farabale, eloni, ejoo, kilode or even fluent in yoruba doesnt mean they are not Igbos, I know what I'm saying cause i once lived in Lagos.

totit:
People like you are one of the reasons the OP opened this thread.

Isn't this an insult on intellectual capacity?
Alright, do provide a data or facts to back what you put up there.

The Op was right after all. None of you has been able to provide accurate answer.

You lot are just something else

Those guys are comedians. Igbos drive the economy of Lagos, never knew selling gala in traffic and pirated cd now drive the economy. Wetin person no go hear for nairaland. Chest beating everywhere. Lmaoooo

The op is a chronic lier. Who deceived u into believing that ondo produces crude oil in larger qqties than anambra, imo and abia.

Oga,u just beating around the bush.Their are Ibos based in Ghana, that have their own company in that country,but we all know ibos companies in ghana contributes to the revenue of the ghanian government than nigeria.Ibos companies in lagos contributre to the revenue of lagos state than the SE region.Dangote,the bigest indegenious investor in nigeria which has, most of his induries in SW is not an ibo man nah.

As for me, i am a spectator today.

hhh

6xtr0r:
Performing governors and political appointees or not self-determination is an inalienable right of a people. Exclusively hyping on performance of selected politicians as the antidote to the quest of a people to self-determination at this critical moment is simply diversionary and mischievous to state the least. 

This argument seems to be predicated on the premise that other governors and politicians are doing excellently better than their SE counterparts. And that is totally false and amounts to a campaign of calumny.


Which of other governors performed creditably better than Chime Sullivan, Peter Obi or Chris Ngige vis-a-vis the available funds at their disposal?

The infallible truth is that the Nigerian system has been so designed to foist notorious crooks on the people and also frustrate credible people from performing.

Indeed Igbos fare better than most tribes who have great federal government investments and the great loots from their elites. The Igbos have the highest concentration of middle-class citizens. 
Even with the dwindling crude oil earnings Igbo States are the least affected largely due to the fact that their economy is not crude oil dependent. 

Igbos are doing fairly well individually and community-wise. The main problem is the anti-Igbo policies being implemented for the past 45 years, targeting of Igbo economy and businesses, insitutionalised discrimination, Igbo careers in federal institutions, lopsided citing of federal infrastructures and investments, killings of Igbos in non-Igbo States and destruction of Igbo means of livelihoods.
Money is criminally collected from SE/SS people via institutions collectively built with the commonwealth and it is selectively used to give to free education to certain parasitic region.

The Nigerian structure is so fashioned to favour some sections while emasculating the other viable/vibrant sections. And the status quo looks very unlikely to change anytime soon. It's more likened to a journey to nowhere.

Remember that after the civil war the federal government promised to rehabilitate and reconstruct the Eastern region but subsequent evil governments diverted Gowon’s 3Rs to other regions for neglecting and under-developing the Eastern region for deliberate obvious reasons.

We live in a global village that's why you see the Igbos, Chinese, Lebanese, Indians, Americans and Italians journey to Lagos to conquer the land.

Acknowledge the simple fact that Igbos fare better than most tribes even with their numerous looting of the commonwealth and great federal government presence. The Igbos have the highest concentration of middle-class citizens while squalor and penury pervade other enclaves. You can see the reality in the shocking manner many of your States are in comatose with many of its civil servants surviving on the good gestures of concerned Nigerians.

With the dwindling crude oil earnings Igbo States are the least affected largely due to the fact that their economy is not crude oil dependent. Fayose of Ekiti government had to send some of its citizens to the SE to learn a skill/trade in a bid to grow the economy of Ekiti State. 

A legitimate agitation by a people for a simple referendum is no way a crime. Reeling out old time war tales with video clips and pictures to your satisfaction reeks of hypocrisy and only meant to divert attention from the crust of the matter to the subterranean.

No one has got the moral right to impose on another his/her self-centred way of reasoning.

Come to think of this: Why do you think the government and those who have criminally benefitted and still benefitting from this contraption are quick to threaten war and resort to violence as a means to quelling a genuine agitation as against opting for a simple referendum?

In Lagos under 'One Nigeria' there seem to exist a silent economic war of destruction of livelihood, burning of markets in the middle of the night, extortion and harassment of genuine businesses by official area boys and street urchins, illegal/multiple taxing of business owners, in markets where Igbos operate e.g. Tejuoso, Alaba International and Ladipo. And now Oshodi electrical & electronic market.

Many of these attracious deeds are conducted at odd times when the traders won't be available to resist the dastardly acts.

Over the decades in the South-West, the Yorubas have systematically burnt Igbo shops as a guise to hijacking the markets from Igbos. 

They hide under the guise of city development at the expense of the people's welfare and claim they had given the traders ample time to relocate and yet the demolition is carried out at odd times.

Shops are demolished without compensation and someone will still say the traders were given sufficient notice of vacation as if the alternative is affordable. The proposed alternative shops are oftentimes so exorbitant and out of reach by the common man.

Igbos are made to develop barren locations and thereafter chased away to an undeveloped area or a complex beyond the reach by the common man. 
Many a time the destruction of shops are selectively done exempting where Yorubas sell agbo, weed and fake medicine just like in Oshodi where Electronic shops belonging to Igbos were demolished.

It takes a callous government to destroy livelihoods just to justify beautification of a city at the expense of people's economic empowerment.

Prior to the 2015 general elections, amidst the threat by the lagoon crooner to drown Igbos, 18 Chisco transport buses were criminally burnt down in Lagos and up till date nothing was done to bring the culprits to book.

What does 'One Nigeria' mean? 
A deceit where you are empowered to share my crude oil and wealth as 'One Nigeria' while I am considered a migrant to your State whom you're just merely accommodating and may perish in the lagoon at your command.

It is a chaotic situation where the Oba of a place would invite the representative of a people for discussion in his palace as regards a market leadership dispute only to set an ambush for him and unleash hundreds of thugs to flog and disgrace him. And you took your bigotry to a higher level by asserting that Eze-Ndigbo is illegal and therefore banned in SW, and that it's a crime for such Igbo leader to wear cap to visit Yoruba palace!

https://www.nairaland.com/2943790/kabiyesi-youruba-onitsha-allowed

http://www.vanguardngr.com/2010/05/yoruba-in-abia-appoint-monarch/

It is an unjust situation where you're licensed to use foul means to destroy my business in your State with outrageous taxes. You can close my business premises at will while your elites continue to shout 'One Nigeria' to cover up the evils and injustices prevalent in the land. And you still expect me to be docile and continue to suffer silently as your hate and envy for my progress soar high.

Now, do you have any case for unity - fake or imaginary?

If you have there would no need fooling and playing to the gallery and shouting 'One Nigeria'. Or have you ever heard 'One Great Britain', 'One United States of America', 'One Germany'? 
That shows that something is fundamentally wrong which many have been shying away from.

Is it a crime for any person/group to choose to opt out of a relationship?

https://www.nairaland.com/2938065/breaking-news-u.s-declassified-memo


History subject is purposely not taught in schools to cover up lots of atrocious deeds of Igbo haters.

If you think the quest cannot guarantee you anything it doesn't mean it doesn't guarantee millions.

The Nigerian system is already rigged to fail and designed to prompt crooks to be selected for political leadership agains the wishes of the people. And some insincere folks would dare say, "blame your governors, senators and political leaders" just to divert attention from the obvious fraudulent system.

Are u surprised that unarmed people demanding their rights to self-determination are treated with impunity even till now?

Let's assume that all is well with the country, is a group of people not entitled to self-determination?

You can continue to hold on to the numerous media propaganda against Igbos and Easterners to promote your evil merchandise.

A person who says it is impossible should not disturb the person doing it.

It's not possible to brainwash anybody about the need to be free. 

No one has got the moral right to impose on another his/her self-centred way of reasoning.

There's nothing like unity in Nigeria. Nairaland is a good enough mirror and a standard gauge of what your Nigeria actually is. 

The Business Venture of Lord Lugard being supervised by the Islamic Fulani-led fiefdom, maintained by Hausa born-to-rule hegemony and oiled by Yoruba propaganda and lies is moribund already. 

Strange bedfellows, with irreconcilable value systems that are at best suitable for the individual selves, are not meant to be together! The 102 years of existence attest to that verdict!

Freedom seekers seek freedom until it's achieved. They don't allow others define them to suit their interest and narratives, or permit the oppressors and abusers of human rights to teach them, the oppressed what human rights are. Once beaten twice shy, they say.

Emotions....Emotions and Emotions as usual. Predictably, you end up defending the same politicians that have milked the region dry and continued to do so till date. People beget the kind of leaders they have. This game of "we are better than them....bla..bla..bla" will lead to no where. As developed as US and Canada are today they still look up to foreigners to invest and make contribution to their economy. They do not brag 'We are better than them , we need no body, we just want to be on our own' like many do say here. The race of trying to be better than others so that I can brag will do no Igbo any good. It is all about survival of the fittest...If you can beat them join them by any means available will only make a jungle out of a society. No sane business man either local or foreign shall invest in such a place.

Defending your politicians for lack of infrastructure and blaming foreigners for your woes is laughable.

Man....bad attitude is like a flat tire ,you are going no where until you change it.

Hypocrisy! Hypocrisy!! Hypocrisy!!!
Mischievous hypocrisy to divert attention from the very obvious in the polity!

Mr ITK, for want of ideas you decided to hype on inanities to champion your evil mission against the Igbo Nation.
Yet no minute passes by on NL without you hypocrites creating useless threads against the Igbo Nation and how Igbos are nothing and bring virtually nothing to the federal purse.
And while at it, at the mere mention of Biaf... you lots would whine, weep and wail with thick mucous dripping down your smelly noses as if your whole essence in life is being taken away from you.

If there's any tribe on earth in the world that criticises its leaders, that tribe is Igbo. Igbos are known to criticise their leaders and that's why the Igbos cannot be hypnotised and led sheepishly by internationally acclaimed drug peddlers cum treasury looters as national leaders like in some other regions.

Many Igbos online and offline criticised TA 0rji while people like you were making jest of Aba out of it.
Igbos are no pretenders and hypocrites who shy away from exposing the evils in the society unlike you lots who are experts in covering evils with lies, falsehood, noise-making, propaganda, abuse and slurs.

T.A Orji was labelled the worst governor in history by Igbos here on NL and offline. Igbos tell themselves the truth such that nobody criticised Orji's failure in Abia State than Igbos.

What about you hypocrites, did you criticise Rauf Aregbesola's bad leadership in Osun State? Instead you lots kept lying to yourselves massage your silly egos.

You lying propagandists kept brandishing frivolous data and rated Osun State as financially buoyant and vibrant with IGR larger than the entire SE IGR until Osun State went under and became bankrupt and comatose with its citizens merely surviving by the kind donations of other Nigerians.

A moment you bigots stutter, "Igbos Must Leave Lagos" when you're high with sniffing excess of your farts. The next moment after relentless ass-licking your slave masters you shout "One Nigeria"
Why do you hypocrites stand for nothing?

Go find yourselves an idea you can live and die for else you'll end up in the abysmal pit where you duly belong!
Do well to leave Igbos out of your miseries!

you fail to answer the main question after all these your long epistles, na novel abi na project u dey write?. what is the contribution of SE state to FG revenue, and on your pipe dream secession project, we will start taking u people serious when u limit ur call for phantom countary to Just the 5 SE states and ur igboid brothers and stop attaching by force with SS, igalas and idomas, we all know ur call for ur pipe dream countary is due to ur greed to steal the most important and richest region away from all Nigerians.

SO ANSWER THE QUESTION WHAT IS THE CONTRIBUTION OF SOUTH EASTERN STATE( IMO, ANAMBRA, ABIA, EBONYI AND ENUGU STATE) TO FG REVENUE.

totit:


Me sef, I don wait I don taya soo teyyyiiiiiiiiii

abeg ala me if u find any meaningful contribution.

chukwudi44:
They dont contribute anything yet you cant afford to have them leave the zoo!! Tell me sonething.

because they are not ready and matured enough to leave and they keep on lieing that they are the region that all other region feast on, nobody is stoping you from breaking away from nigeria, but the issue is that u guys are not ready to leave, the moment you choose to limit ur phantom countary to just your 5 South Eastern state and ur igboid brothers alone without attaching by force wih other non igboid tribe in SS and remove igalas and idomas from your pipe dream countary that is the moment we will start taking you serious and grant u referendum and your freedom. And please stop saying Nigeria dont want you to break away, we all know that you are only calling for referendum do to your greed to steal the most bleseed region in the whole of africa and world at large which SS away from other Nigerians.

PentiumPro:
The Insurance companies in Lagos.
The Transport business of intra-city transportation
The petrol stations
These three businesses ALONE that are VIRTUALLY in the hands of the yorubas in Lagos contribute more than all that Igbos contributes daily to Lagos businesses and commerce.
Stop you people that don't live in Lagos should stop this your falsehood you peddle daily on Nairaland.

I laugh in Swahili. Insurance company et al contribute billions to Lagos(Nigeria in extension) like Alaba,ladipo,madillas etc You're funny by half. I repeat-Human index in SW-LOW (even getting lower with the educational standard falling). It's not an insult,it's a pointer showing SW need to re-strategise. Shallom

realjoker:
stop all this blame game.
those ogun state have functioning airport?
those ogun state produce oil?

Don't you know that lagos contribute a lot to ogun economically? You know what I mean.

Emekamex:
SE contributes a reasonable percentage.
Op are the profits gotten from customs and FIRS from ghosts? Because to my best of knowledge, importers, traders, retailers and exporters contribute at least 80% to these agencies and most of the people that make up this group are mostly from the SE(Igbos).

We might not be contributing reasonable oil revenues but we do contribute a large percentage tax from our equipped human resources.

so you are the enemies that are killing our naira
