Poor man Lexus, RX350..

A poor man cannot afford that innoson vehicle.

And yes, the south east has the lowest taxation regime in the South.
It is a deliberate action given the medium scale of most of the businesses.

And we all know taxation is the greatest determinant of IGR in Nigeria.

QuotaSystem:
You have failed to answer the all important question.

So which state "indiscriminately increased taxation" which boosted their IGR? Is it in Northern Japan?

P. S 1. Tax is not the only form of government revenue. There are state owned enterprises among others that generate revenue (museums, parks, hotels etc) for the govt. I'm shocked you're ignorant of this basic knowledge.

2. We are discussing the productivity of states /regions and NOT national productivity. Pay Attention.

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.

I know a twin that both got first class in mathematics from the university of Nigeria this year.

Classic evidence.

QuotaSystem:
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

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.

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

mrvitalis:
Designing the engine is not that hard ...who DA produce it

The only way Nigeria can begin Engine design is through wholesale technology transfer.
That is the only possible way.

I think innoson already said something about getting the tech transfer from his foreign partners very soon.

Amaechi is trying too hard, it is funny.

QuotaSystem:
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

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.

Hausaman1:
Why should PMB employ this failure?.
What has been Nigerians benefit under her watch ?.
What was her role in $ 20 Billion loot under clueless GEJ ?.
Its on record she facilitated the payment of $30 Billion to IMF as loan repayment, under OBJ, which still baffles the world on the level of our mumuism.
She can be the best ipobian woman on earth, but not the greatest Nigerian woman on earth, for we have many that are greater than her, the likes of Amina at the UN, the Alakijas in the private world and ORS.

Stop talking nonsense.
Alakija was a tailor who got an oil well by spreading her legs for a dictator.

Amina Muhammed, though significantly better is nothing special.
A political appointee, nothing more.

If those are your best, then you are playing at a much lower level.

Have you ever seen a picture of buhari and NOI together?
Not even when they are at the same event.

Anambra state has a poverty of 8.9‰

The best northern state has a poverty percentage of at least twice of that.

Peacemaker5128:

Dangote alone can buy the entire shout yeast the land of raising criminals

Borno state is bigger than France and England.
I am sure you believe dangote can buy France.

There are more productive people from a local govt in anambra state than in the entire North west where dangote comes from.

The federal government should create a law that any body that wants to trade on gas should have at least a level 3 safety training from Ispon.

lomprico:
he is the most intelligent house mate. unfortunately, our youths of today love dullards more than creative
people that's why Buhari is our president.

And yet Seyi was busy winning all the games.
Most intelligent indeed. He is Street wise, that is all.

The way Mercy go take win this show eh.

It would be like usain bolt.

fr3do:
As much as it is heavy in the mouth
It's James Ibori for me.

When I remember a picture of how ibori loaded so much foreign currencies in his wardrobes and shelves, I can never choose a man like that.

Robisky001:
The temptation to play for England is very high compared to the Eagles. Good access to facilities, steady pay of match bonus unlike the Eagles and career advancement. All in all, he should follow his heart.

What career advancement did the Nigerian players that played for England get?
Apart from dele alli, none of them is as popular as yakubu aiyegbeni.



If you are good, you are good. That is what determines career advancement, not the English national team.

Zaha turned down England, and yet his release clause is over 70 million pounds.

Wetin dey worry these ladies.
Does the child belong to you alone?

Abeg shift make I carry pikin go sky dive.

That was what one female Corper told me when we were serving together.

Nwaotu10:
.

All gone!

The rashes were on the neck and back.

Good luck.

It has to be the south as usual.

We make Nigeria productive while the north rules over everybody contributing nothing but poverty and madness.

Nwaotu10:
Only white patches on the tongue.

So the fever and sore throat, body weakness and rashes have gone?
And On which part of your body did you develop rashes?

I have never heard interest in that country and never will.
I don't even like any African country anyway.
These recent occurrence just proved me right.

Nwaotu10:
Nope!
I will test in 12th week.
I was told that, 12th week test is conclusive.

Are you still feeling symptoms?

Mrfeel:
By demanding for referendum ? how is demanding for referendum puting innocent lives at risk?? Even back then in 1967 ojokwu didn't call for war against Nigeria it was Nigeria that declared war on biafrans

But you know Nigeria will not condone referendum as witnessed by ojukwu, why would you do it again?

The first thing buhari heard when he came back from America was tacha.

Unfortunately, KANU the fool is trying to put innocent lives at risk again.

Nwaotu10:
Are you symptomatic?
If yes, enlighten us about the symptoms you're having.

Have you tested since then?
It should be ten week now or thereabouts.

manmen:
One slowpoke in Aba still thinks Biafra should rub shoulder with China instead of Togo or Lagos

Biafra does not exists. It exists to you though.

You should have compared Nigeria to China and see how an invisible hand would slap you.

I wish every Nigerian would leave and you would realise that their drug problem would remain the same.

Fountainofyouth:
If it was an African President who did that, especially Nigeria, the insults here would be out of the world, one even said he is "a president that knows what he is doing" as if he lives in El Salvador, low esteem and hypocrisy on display here....

He is the president of a small country.
It is a privilege for him.

You don't see the president of India go there and take selfies.

If he was still at Chelsea, he would have replaced azpilicueta.
