PoliticsRe: Cost Of Living In Nigeria Is Cheaper Than UK Or US by rolams(m): 7:31am On Dec 04, 2023
psalmsjob:
I'm posting this as a response to the topic that made Nairaland front page yesterday; "See What Someone Bought With An Hour Minimum Wage In The UK £10", the link: https://www.nairaland.com/7929193/see-what-someone-bought-hour

UK & US ARE OVER-RATED NIGERIA IS STILL BETTER in terms of cost of living see a practical example why doing a price comparison: 1 pound to 1 naira today is N1,001 so are you saying with £10 x N1,001 = N10,001 you cannot buy everything in that basket and collect change in Nigeria today?

1 Sliced Bread = N800
2 Spaghetti = N1400
1 Gesha = N600
1 live chicken = N3,000
1 75cl soya Oil = N1,400
1 Midium size Butter = N600
2 Gino Tomato paste = N1,000

Total = N8,800 so your change is N1,200 that's if you exchange pound to naira at offical rate and buying at the most expensive stores or high brands. If you exchange at black market rate and buy at public market "days" you will collect as much as N6,000 after buying everything in that basket....that's about £6 left.

LET'S JUST THANK GOD FOR WHAT WE HAVE AND STOP LOOKING AT AND GLORIFYING ANOTHER MAN'S LAND MORE THAN OUR OWN....OUR OWN NA OUR OWN O grin
You guys don't understand economics at all. Are you earning and spending Naira there? No.

Therefore, why are you converting it to Naira. If you go to south Africa and buy those things then convert the value to Naira, you will get the same result. Go to anywhere in the world where their currencies are valuable and bigger than that of Naira you will get the same result.

Carry one dollar com buy this kain bread for here make we see how much you go collect for change.

We don't spend dollar here the same way they don't spend Naira there.

Do you know that our living standard is way smaller than one dollar in Nigeria while our cost of living is way bigger than one dollar?

Things you bought that are way lower than one dollar comparing to what you will buy with hundred on naira.

Abeg! Stop disturbing us with your beer parlour comparison.

PoliticsRe: 2022 Internally Generated Revenue, Top 3 Per Zone by rolams(m):
IamAtikulate:
IGR = Taxes

Anambra is a tax haven, in case you don't.

Again, SE leaders are more economically sound than their SW counterpart.

For instance, Alex Otti recently said that "Taxes are government share of the prosperity it creates."

Do you really understand what that means?

Have you wondered why SE Governors, especially Abia and Anambra keep lowering taxes?

You won't understand because you guys suck at economics.

Keep celebrating IGR which is not an economic indicator while your debts keep mounting.

You claim to generate the highest IGR in the country yet SW has the highest debt ratio.

It doesn't make sense.

If Anambra State government is tax-obsessed like Ogun and SW Governors, only Onitsha Main Market will generate the whole if whatever IGR Ogun gets.

You are making noise because of 120 billion.

FYI, 12 million daily transaction happens at Onitsha Main Market. The market annual transactions sits at around $3 billion, with 40% of this circulating as unbanked transaction.

You can verify these claims with a simple Google search.

If Anambra government taxes just 1% of these transaction, it'll generate $30 million annually, which is approximately 21 billion naira.

If government taxes 5%, it'll generate 105 billion from the market alone.

But Anambra has 48 markets.

So, trade and commerce in Anambra can generate more than Ogun IGR.

If you are underrating trade, then look at the evidence below.

Trade is the third largest component of Nigerian GDP, far ahead of manufacturing
I disagree with you!

Do you know the numbers of companies situated in Ogun State. Go to Agbara for verification. Do you know the series of markets situated in Ogun State.

Are you telling me that the revenue generated in Onitsha market is not included in the one announced above?

Do not forget there are several things you need to put into consideration before arguing about this. Have you considered the population, sales, the unannounced revenue, the politically decline and others too.

It is what it is. If a state generates more than others, you should not blame those celebrating it because it gives the state that generated the advantage to improve their states because they have more money to spend. That's why you some states better off while some are worse off.
