on the flip side of revenue generated, I want to see commensurate developments. I want to see city that can stand side by side with its counterparts all over the world, not gloried village

Interesting results...just like the elections.

The 3 Kardashians alone (Kano, Kaduna, Katsina) generated N38 Billion...
...while the entire 5 South East states could only generate N36billion

In fact the entire North West (so called poverty headquarters ) generated more wealth internally than the chestbeating region by N12 billion (NW - N48b vs SE - N36b). This is internally generated o, not government oil money allocations.
Did someone say PARASITE?

I'm particularly impressed with Sokoto's over 100% improvement from about N2billion 3 years ago when it was dragging with Ebonyi to over N5 billion in 2019; Tambuwal's focus on SME's is surely yielding fruits. Sokoto is already exporting Kilishi and set to start shipping Neem oil to Europe this year. Now same Ebonyi is struggling to catch Zamfara (statistically the poorest state when population is factored) who beat Ebonyi in internal wealth generation for the 1st time .

Very insightful thread. Wind don blow fowl xxxxx

Regardless, you still compare the standard of living in NW&NE to SE, SE isn't doing much to generate revenue, I have been to Aba and I can tell you that the state governor isn't doing much to boost her internal revenue.

Instead of giving yourself false hope, I think you and your people need to work on NW and NE.

Whoever noticed that Rivers IGR is always at N82B for the past 5yrs. It doesn't increase nor decrease. Something isn't right.

The internally generated revenue (IGR) of Lagos state rose by approximately N33 billion from 2015 to 2016, beating 33 states put together.

According to a report by the Nigeria Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (NEITI), the state recorded an IGR of N301.19 billion, a rise of N32.99 billion in one year.

The total IGR from 33 states of the federation, excluding Delta, Ogun and Rivers states, stood at N299 billion — over a billion less than Lagos IGR.

Delta, Ogun and Rivers raked in N44.89 billion, N56.30 billion and N82.10 billion respectively.

Like his predecessors, Bola Tinubu and Babatunde Fashola, Akinwunmi Ambode, governor of Lagos state, has at various times committed himself to the generation of IGR in the state.

The NEITI report, which reviewed disbursements from the Federation Account Allocation Committee (FAAC) for the fourth quarter of 2016, also showed that Lagos received N109 billion in 2016.

The agency lamented low revenue generation across 34 states, citing Lagos and Ogun as the only states generating more than what they get from the central.

Every day am asking why he was removed as everything shows he’s a great manager of funds

Impressive and commendable development in Lagos, but there has to be corresponding infrastructural reflection on ground!

False hope? Do you understand numbers at all?

The reason for the bolded is the greater population and since you don't expect the gov't to start killing its citizens, the only option is to continue to increase the generated revenue among other measures to reduce the gap, which from this report we are already doing (Sokoto 100% improvement) and is a real cause for celebration regardless of what anyone thinks. Things are getting better.

You should be more worried about SE's IGR figures which shows things are getting worse for you.

Interesting!

The IGR of Lagos state would continue to rise as Babjide Sanwo-Olu, the Governor-elect, is an ex-banker (a Treasurer in 3 different banks before he resigned as a DGM to join public sector).

Tinubu surely knows how to spot and develop future leaders...
