TSRC:
Two states of the South east are in the Niger delta pumping oil as we speak.

If we are truly talking about productivity of states, add up the revenues those States generates off their land per day.
Then we can see true productivity.

TSRC:
What are you about?
IGR is a function of taxation. It is about the state.
The bigger the taxes, the bigger the IGR.
Has nothing to do with you.
A state like anambra with relatively a significant industrial sector can have low taxation as an economic policy, which would invariably lead to a relatively low IGR.

[s]Nigeria's productivity is hinged on commerce, oil, agriculture, and the en[/s]tertainment industry.
I was expecting you to tell me how your people contribute to those sectors,not mindless mumbo jumbo.

There are not much green grasses in the North.

mikkyjay:
I know you are a known Igbo hater here, but what do you think is called productivity?
And why do you think South East is the least productive region?

Lol you guys are so deluded you no longer think before drumming chest

So which state "indiscriminately increased taxation" which boosted their IGR? Is it in Northern Japan? You have lied to yourselves that you're greater than everyone else for so long that the actual reality stings you so sharply that you must continue to lie no matter how brainlessly ridiculous it sounds.

Let's even imagine your excuse was valid, wouldn't the ability for businesses in the more productive states to pay those "high taxes" and STILL remain in business an indicator of higher economic prosperity?

How does your "excuse" change the fact that Igbo STATES generate the least revenue internally within their 8 X 6 states?

Don't even bother to answer

TSRC:
The contributions of the South east indigenes to the Nigerian economy is beyond internally generated revenue which is more often than not a product of tax.

If I decide to indiscriminately increase taxation in anambra, the igr would rise.
But that is just lazy economics.

Check out any productive sector of Nigeria and tell me who plays it better than the Igbo.

Esseite:
When you compare population size to IGR, I really dont think SE is at the bottom ten.

For your information (though I suspect you're aware), apart from being the tiniest region, the SE also has the smallest internally generated revenue making it the least productive region.

That makes your logic perfect for a pit latrine

Esseite:
Not being regionalistic, but majority of those large one up there are just big for nothing..

If the smallest can be the most productive while the largest can be the most unproductive, we can come to the conclusion, the bigger the ******

Myhusband:
Continue deceiving yourself abokki.

Myhusband:
which highly educated are in northern states? those studying Islamic studies ?

Myhusband:
we allowed them to dictate our political life for us because most southerners lacks consistent and constant loyalty.


we might forever be a tools in the hand of these northerners, they uses divide and rule to govern us in this 21 century, so shameful of the learned southerners. imagine if these northerners had the level education southerners had perhaps they would have trade us by now

Earthquake1:
Who and who will unite?

The North know that the SE and SS are already with them

TheOtherRoom:
hi, you didn't keep your word

revolt:
look again....that being been said, this is typical of low life buharis. They leave the main issue on ground and concentrate on trivials trivialities and distraction tactics. Suddenly were we're arguing english here.

revolt:
well it was autotext typo and I have not time to proof read on nairaland. You got the message that's what's most important madam. Moreover mrs English, you missed a few commas in your reply(since were in english class).

igbodefender:
Both Salami and Soludo start with the letter 'S'.

Earthquake1:
Appointing him as a floor member?

heckymaicon:
you say wetin? stop deceiving yourself bro

jayAjoku:
Lol this is funny sha what about the eastern and southern states? They don’t deserve rail projects?

madenigga:
When it comes to anything north funds go dae,

But once it comes to south or east, you would hear we are still looking for funds

BUSINESSARENAA:
Lots of money indeed from leather, we all know in this country that the cow skin is converted to kpomo and consumed, it is even so alarming that the government is begging people to stop, the till date, Nigeria is importing all sorts of kpomo,.

Go to the abattoir and check how many of the cows killed in a day, and show me who has time to start the process of converting the skin to leather, obviously you lied. Nobody has that time there.

Then also, it has been proving over and over, that the owners of those cows are the rich Alhajis, why will the government not tax them as they are raking in billions, as it is completely private business that has fully developed, yet neglecting the part of the husbandry trying trying too develop.


Let me tell you, the government does not generate lots of money from any cow skin in Nigeria, if it has been as you claimed, we won't be borrowing to pay salaries as we would have been exporting leather.

I would have gone on and on but I looked at your moniker, I have to stop here so I don't confuse a "quota system" brain as its obvious there's a limit to its understanding of events.

Good bye.

TRIGITIS:
When buhari was announced the winner by inec, the opposite of this happened and pigs blamed buhari. I trust pigs, they will now give credit to investors.

Shoodboi:
What is Seun and the rest of the Nairaland crew doing about people like this?

Joevics:
Good morning. Of course, I wish him well for the sake of us all. My priority is good governance which I still think he can't offer.

Joevics:
This #sackbuhari hashtag is giving APC gbas gbas gbos..

Haq haq haq..

BUSINESSARENAA:
Goood, I love the dimension you took this discussion to.

And I ask how much tax these cattle rearers are paying the government despite raking in billions of Naira on a daily basis? None.

Yet the government of the day is wasting tax payers money on people that will never pay tax.

Also note, for the fact you don't consume pig does not mean others don't, so to them it's a good business and a livestock.

FACT.
