Once Nigeria collapses, Lagos will also collapse as people migrate back to their various nations to build them.


So forget your dream of taxations.

Lol this clear blow towards secessionist. Remember he's the head of SE governors forum. We need to get them off the feeding bottle system.

normally I don't do this, but Ogun state generates more revenue than Rivers State, Delta state and Akwa ibom state respectively? And then you say Nigeria is an Oil dependent economy, this figures are cajoled up just like censors figures for Bleep sake, how can you believe this poo?

drnoel:


This ur data is wrong. U want to say lagos produces as much as 51% of the whole countries revenue? My son stuwpidity doesnt become u.

Timbuktuo:


So, who would you recommend for president? Feel free to mention only Igbo people.

Blue3k:


The figures for Ogun are correct. Ogun is the top mining state in nation 5 yrs running. It's has one biggest FDI in nation. It's also has alot of manufacturing and agricultural products. The state has been steadily growing Delta IGR fell in 2016 as well.

Akwa Ibom has never had higher IGR. It's still pursuing it agenda with industrialization. Then we still have get port completed along with industrial city. We are improving but we have much more work to be done. The goal should be getting IGR to Rivers and Delta level first. Then on to bigger targets.

Then his State needs to wake up or rejoin Enugu

hahahahaha he is speaking for himself, the people will speak for themselves, Mr umahi no election in south east get that in ur thick skull... meanwhile Afonja nightmare below

I am in support of restructuring because the current system can never work. The current system breed laziness, it creates an opportunist elite that sits idle and makes politics a do or die affair.

States like Bayelsa will lose over 70% of their oil wealth to the federal government because most of this oil is offshore and any resources offshore will belong to the government and if whatever money the state government gets from the onshore oil is not used properly by the state government the citizen of the state will question them.

Oil only contribute 10% to Nigeria GDP but fund over 90% of government revenue because they government is too lazy to have a strong tax system in place. All these will change with a restructured system, state will be forced to look for alternatives source of income like tax, solid minerals extraction etc.

Most of the pro-Biafran should do a reality check.
1) Biafra is too dependent on the Zoo!
2) Biafra will depend on the Zoo for its electricity. Egbin ,Papalanto and Omotosho thermal Stations produce about 50% of the electricity generation presently while Kanji and Shiroro hydroelectric Stations in Niger State generate about 25%.
Which thermal or hydroelectric power stations is on Biafran soil?
3) Biafra will have to be buying electricity at international rates (where will they get Forex?) and the Zoo can decide not to 'export' electricity
4) Biafra may be in darkness until they are able to build coal fired power stations which will not be feasible overnight.
5) Biafra CANNOT refine or export crude oil within it's border.
It will take sometimes to build refineries, so expect unprecedented fuel scarcity.
6)Biafra will need Meat, leather, pepper, onions, groundnuts and other agricultural produce from the North.
7) Biafra will need sea ports either in the south south or s/west.
...In short,Biafra will still depend on its neighbours either as Nigeria or Niger-delta or Oduduwa Republics so grow up bro and stop insulting other Nigerians, we are more interdependent or even interrelated than you, Nnamdi KANU or IPOB think or acknowledge.

I think you are missing the point. Most Asian countries have been way ahead during the reign of Emperors and these countries were advanced before the wars. They didn't just start after the war.

Denmark prides herself in milk and pastry production and is one of the largest food force in the world. France boasts of her wineries and cuisines and remains the dream of food lovers all over the world. Science and technology is one aspect of the human life and does not necessarily account for the all-in-all development of man. It's like saying countries without oil would struggle as there would be no easy trade. The emboldened is crassly wrong. The same Japan you drool over is present experiencing stagnation and there are reports that her economy is shrinking. This is a country with great feats in the technology world. So what then is happening? Every facet of human growth and development has its strengths just as its weaknesses.

Where are you from? Why must you guys share leadership like you are sharing cake. This is why the country should disintegrate

ScotsReferendum:



Japan's economy is declining because the population of old people is increasing while that of young people is decreasing. in other words, Japan's population is aging

Amberon11:
This time we are not for restructuring, we want secession.

ScotsReferendum:


As population decreases, economic activities decline and tax collected decline and revenue decline and infrastructural development decline also

shukuokukobambi:


THE SE IS THE TRUE PARASITE AND THIS IS FROM THE MOUTH OF THEIR GOV FORUM CHAIRMAN!!

Empty barrels making noise all over social media. They would all have died of hunger in their region if not for Nigeria

Street urchins, touts and jobless illiterates are screaming secession while their elites are even scared of restructuring. I laugh in PARASITISM

Opharhe:
Oniovo you're saying this based on what we have now since most states have not tapped into their potential for wealth creation. Even the Niger Delta is not really doing anything apart from oil. How much fish do we produce? In our own Delta State for example, how much have we maximized our water resources? There are a lot more.
Ebonyi not only has agriculture, it also has good minerals that can be explored. A very good example is limestone.

Again, restructuring Nigeria will not be an automatic death sentence for the less economically viable states because the terms, I believe, will be flexible and will allow for a gradual and progressive return to self sustainance for the federating units.

Also, many people are arguing for a regionally integrating system(State-Regional-Federal tiers) and this makes some good sense since some states may not be economically viable.

But if we're sticking strictly with the state system, some will have to merge. For example, Ebonyi can merge with Enugu.

Restructuring is about all facets of our national life and not just about the economic and fiscal structure which many who oppose it will want to limit it to for their convenience.

The 1999 constitution just has to be abandoned and replaced with a better one, a true constitution by the people, if we want to progress or this country will progressively derail until we can no longer save it. Something just has to give.
