Dont join issues with people who clearly do not understand the dichotomy between budget and revenue.They always believe budget is real money or revenue in the bag already.From 1999 till date no budget in Nigeria has recorded 70%performance.
SarkinYarki:
I was referring to the active Lagos 2019 budget which was just slightly bigger 2billion dollars and not the 2020 which is not active ..and even the 2020 budget is just a paltry 4 billion dollars when you take population and infrastructural deficit into cognizance ... Please wake up pound pound Lagos is not in a better financial position than Zamfara ,Lagos just has money available for a Governor who doesn't want to work to loot

The next breed of politicians we should all be supporting should be independent governors who are against god fatherism.

The likes of obaseki and this guy.
Independent candidates rarely win elections anywhere in the world.

You need party structure and loyalists to protect your interest

When glaring facts of the demonic wickedness of Tinubu and his likes are mentioned, y'all should stop scrambling to offer half-assed defences! It is abominable for any past governor to be entitled to houses and hundreds of millions along with statutory security protection while the poor masses suffer! Whether Tinubu or Amaechi (Rivers State) or whichever state, about 20 of them now!

You either condemn them totally or keep shut rather than start the selective defense or attacks such as this one you just put up!
one of the best comment I ever read on Nairaland.

Zamfara actual budget is less than 200 million dollars and Lagos annual budget is more than $2bn.

And lagos population is not up to 20 million while Zamfara population is more than 4 million

10 million Naira monthly for doing nothing in a state that could barely feed itself! Some leaders are direct descendants of the Devil.
It is what all the Nigerian politicians do at all levels. They are all after money, nothing less.

Governor's bogus pension is the discussion. Tinubu is the originator who showed others the way. He should be called out for what he did just like people blame soyinka for cultism

Lagos population as at 2012 was said to be 18m. You'll agree that it will be above 20m now.
Zamfara had a population of 3.8m in 2012. You'll also agree that the change there won't be much due to emigration, diseases and deaths the state has witnessed since then.

Perhaps all former governors are collecting jumbo packages monthly but that doesn't make it right.
To drag Jagaban's name here reeks of hatred and envy. When did Jagaban start setting moral standard for Nigerians?

God! Are you this dumb or what? How exactly did what you posted different from what he posted? You wanted to attack him no reason. Where did he defend Tinubu in his comment? Why did the guy has to specifically make it Tinubu's issue like he pointed it out if not for hatred? Guy, you're seriously messed-up

Governor Bello Mohammed Matawalle of Zamfara state has accused the immediate past governor of the state, Abdulaziz Yari Abubakar, of paying himself N360 million from the state pension funds shortly before he left office.

The governor said this in Wednesday while assenting to a law stopping jumbo allowances for former governors, deputies, speakers and their deputies in the state.

The Speaker of the state House Assembly, Nasiru Muazu Magarya, and other principal officers of the House had brought a bill before the governor for assent.

Matawalle, while assent the bill, said, “If you could remember former governor Yari had sent a letter to me demanding that his N10 million monthly upkeep allowances be paid and he was even threatening to take me to court should I fail to pay the money.

“I called my deputy, the state assembly speaker and his deputy and asked them whether they need such mind-boggling allowances and they all answered in negative. Then, we decided to repeal the law backing the payment and I have assented to it.

“Our successors will not find it easy to come up with such obnoxious law to pillage the little resources of the state in the future. There is no reason whatsoever the state could afford to pay the past leaders a whopping sum of N702 million annually to the detriment of dying pensioners in the state,” Matawalle said.

“It is on the record that the backlog of pension and gratuity for local government workers and primary school teachers left behind by Abdulaziz Yari’s administration stands at N3billion while that of the state government retired civil servants also stands at N3billion. “What moral justification could be offered for such a Jumbo package for a select few when the social index has consistently indicated that the majority of our population lives in abject poverty?” he queried.

According to the governor, for anyone to become governor or attain any top position in the state, or means they were already financially well to do.

This particular state along with yobe, borno have been ruled by APC since 1999. They are the hotbed of sharia, Boko haram, banditry, diseases and poverty. This is the first time PDP is ruling this particular state and the difference has been clear!!

Zamfara had a population of 3.3 in 2006 while lagos had a population of 9.1 million

Don't take my word for it, google the census of 2006.

So how on earth will Zamfara with a higher birth rate than lagos have 3.8 million in 2016, while lagos will have 18 million.

why are you trying to defend a man who brought collateral damage to Lagos and as we speak, Lagos is on a downward trend. Abeg let's call a spade a spade and stop defending looters of our common patrimony.
He didn't defend Tinubu, he told the guy not to make it about Tinubu alone.

It's the same Google that shows zamfara has 3.3 in 2006 and 3.8 in 2012 while Lagos is 9 in 2006 and 18m in 2012. Check it. You can then judge the pattern of their population explosion.
As I told you, emigration occurs in zamfara while immigration occurs in Lagos.
Zamfara has had divers deaths from diseases, insecurity and poverty while Lagos has not recorded deaths from such. Plus the probability of a baby surviving to adulthood in Lagos is higher than in zamfara.

Besides the birth rate you mentioned is relative. Lagos with a lower birth rate will have more babies in a year than zamfara even if zamfara has double of its birth rate

Tinubu is Yoruba so he'll understand that
Re: Yari Paid Himself N360m Pension Shortly Before He Left Office - Zamfara Governor by paix(m): 12:14pm On Nov 29, 2019

And that is why Tinubu can order Bullion vans to his residence......Keep on defending illegality.
The issue of Bullion Vans would have sent some people to jail in some environment if they are sued by Tinubu. Bullion Vans are operated by Licensed Security companies to provide services to whosoever requires their services. The law establishing them does not restrict their usage to provide services to organization that requires their services. You should go to Court to provide evidences that they were carrying contraband or illegal items. Parking at a premises of a captain of business organization and political leader should not be your headache. Are they CBN Bullion Vans?. If Bullion Vans are parked at the residence of the CEO of the security company that owns them would that have amounted to crime? Hatred & jealousy are troubling people.

I have never met Tinubu in person or any of those lousy parasites, sycophants and PAs that shield him but my analysis of his struggling to develop Lagos from the stinking, jungle and deserted state to the present state is positive.

So Lagos a state of 20 million with a paltry budget of 2 billion dollars , massive multi dimensional infrastructural deficit and zero access to pipeborne water is Rich in your dictionary? cheesy cheesy Sir pound for pound taking demographics as it relates to budget spend per head Zamfara is actually richer than Lagos as I l will prove to you below :

Lagos Budget = 2 billion Dollars
Lagos population = 20, 000,000
Lagos Budget per head = 100 dollars annually


Zamfara Budget = 500 million dollars
Zamfara population =4 million
Zamfara Budget per head = 125 dollars

So Mister from the above you can see pound for pound Lagos is not in better position than Zamfara infact Zamfara has 25 extra dollars to spend per inhabitant than Lagos yet Lagos is paying 5 times more as pension perks to its ex governors .

The problem with many of you is that you are too short sighted and parochial to see beyond your nose so much in your poor imagination you thought Lagos was rich .
I did not bother to go through your analysis because it would be a waste of time. I appreciated your efforts which distinguished you from the numerous lazy youths. Based on your analysis, Osun State is richer than Lagos. There is no need for people from Osun and Zamfara to come to Lagos for survival because, naturally, people look for greener pasture. rather, it is people from Lagos that should relocate to Gusau and Oshogbo for survival. There is a difference between simple Arithmetic and Pure & Applied Mathematics.

No Southeast are the people who leave their region behind for economic opportunities everywhere why claiming their own leaders are saints and have never done nothing wrong.

You are the one with the obsession with Tinubu, Aregbe etc(just like you have proven on this thread ) why nobody in the southwest or North gives a Bleep about your government.

You are the ones who call your president a dullard, his tribe backward cows and claim everyone else is jealous of you.


It's better you leave southwest and head back to the East where you would likely be in paradise instead of complaining about South West leaders all day.
Why not grab a gun and go chase them out of their homes and lands in Lagos since you have 24 heads?

Today- 'We must not allow them to have their own country'

Tommorow- 'leave our lagos, and go back'

What do you really want from the East?
