Would have been so good if Oyo state can take a clue and tap into its close proximity with Lagos!

navyseal2220:
Afonja and their propaganda. Yes Ogun is the best thing you have, if ask you to separate to enjoy Ogun alone, you say NO but continue to enjoy Niger Delta oil while claiming Ogun is the best thing. Who are you deceiving Afonja?

Maduawuchukwu:
I doubt this report. What comprises investment? If it is any asset that produces income then this report is false. I have seen shopping malls springing up in Kaduna and Imo just between January and now and they say no new investment.

ODVanguard:
The world is steadily moving on from 'oyel'. An enabling environment and right policies are very critical to attracting fdi.

wristbangle:
You have spoken well. At the moment, there are up to 20 new companies under construction at agbara and sagamu-siun axis as I am speaking. Once they get completed, it would be in the record in terms of new investments in the state.

Akwa Ibom did well because they have the largest oil reserve in Nigeria, case of good security and a performing.

It's a show of shame that rivers and anambra state are not in the list

Rivers is on the list.

Rivers State Has An Investment Worth $500,000.Pls Read Well!

Benekruku:
"The states that got new investments are Lagos State, which attracted the highest amount of $2.6bn during the six months period, followed by Akwa Ibom with $52.44m.

The Federal Capital Territory followed with $31.51m while Ogun State attracted fresh investment inflows of $5.31m; Oyo had $5.25m, and Rivers recorded $550,000 of investments."

At this pace, Its glaring beyond all doubts that Ogun state is the next big thing to happen to Nigeria. Ogun is rising at a very fast pace which I believe is because of its close proximity to Lagos.

Don't forget to give credit to the Ogun state Governor.
Remember, Ogun state has been a neighboring state to Lagos all these-while.

Dasuks:
60% of all investment to Nigeria is energy or power related. And 99% of all investments go to Lagos, as it is the financial services centre of Nigeria. The Mega billions headed for egina, usan , bong a and gas ipp projects are all transacted with Lagos banks. Much like North Sea projects are done thru London financial institutions and not stavanger or Aberdeen.

That is where I am pissed with ND governors. It is not that oil is gonna stop being relevant (as all military activity and air transport relies on it ) but that where the business is conducted doesn't have to be where the resource is located. That's what tinubu and co get that the local champions in ND seem to not.

Take for example nnpc's fundraising round of close to 4 billion earlier this year. All that will pass thru
Lagos. It will show on Lagos metrics and no where else. I'm a niger deltan but I have to give it to the SW guys for holding it down , business-wise. Until leadership changes elsewhere in this country only Lagos and perhaps Ogun will feature well on such lists.

...In addition, data generated from MAN survey also showed that 69.9 per cent of total manufacturing investment in the review period, which stood at N448.94 billion, went to Ogun; thus retaining the zone as the investment haven of the nation.

Breakdown revealed that investment in Ogun increased to N313.62 billion in the review period from N302.26 billion of the corresponding half of 2015; indicating N11.36 billion increase over the period. It also increased by N259.07 billion when compared with N54.55 billion recorded in the preceding half.

smileyoo:
the yoruba states keep on doing fine, yet tribal bigots keep calling them afonja, skull miners and other delogatory names, as if criminality has a tribe. its only friendly environment & bearable social security that attracts pronounced fdi, not online propagandas.

Benekruku:
What has investment got to do with oil? Does UK, Switzerland or Netherlands have oil?

Stop dis your "Our Oyel" mentality! Oil is not everything!
