The South-West has more domestic debt than other regions of the country.

Statistics obtained from the Debt Management Office on Monday showed that the geopolitical zone was exposed to a domestic debt of N1.04tn as of March 31.

The statistics also showed that the six geopolitical zones of the country were exposed to a total domestic debt of N3.97tn as of March 31.

This means that the South-West geopolitical zone of the country accounts for 26.2 per cent of the country’s total subnational domestic debt.

The geopolitical zone is made up of six states – Ondo, Ogun, Oyo, Ekiti, Lagos and Osun. Lagos, the commercial capital of the country accounts for much of the indebtedness of the zone as it has domestic debt of N542.23bn.

You are basically saying there's lack of development in the SE because of their low debt profile on top of the fact that they are poor and still saddled with poor income in form of IGR.

Debt, when used properly, is an instrument for development so, when you are poor and have low IGR, if means you have poor credit ratings and you can not access credit facilities which means lack of development.

Well the credibility of this news shouldn't be that matter as we all know most of the governors diverted the loans borrowed to personal money.

APC south west states claim to to generate more IGR than other regions yet also borrow 10 times more than other regions and absolutely nothing to show for it like for example Lagos State which despite it huge loans and IGR still has 70 percent of it road unpaved and unmotorable , 99 percent of it's inhabitant have no access to potable water from the govt water service , 80 percent have no access to toilets which brings us to the question WHO IS LOOTING THE RESOURCES OF THE SW?
