Most of the money generated in Lagos comes from multinationals, MDAs, public sector and PAYE (which you pointed out). The fact that PAYE is relatively low, is irrelevant in the case of Lagos.

IGR doesn't mean anything. The sustainability of the state is determined by its expenditure to income, but state development is determined by the private sector. That's how all nations develop to first world status. Not from government initiatives, but from people initiatives.

That's why poverty is heavily correlated with education. Humans need education to setup businesses. Igbo people are the most educated, that's why you'll find, in Igboland, indigenous industries, manufacturing cars, plastics, foodstuff, computers, clothes etc... You won't find people in Sokoto manufacturing cars; simply because the populace lacks the knowhow.

Likewise in SW, you won't find the equivalent of Zinox anywhere in that land.

Let's keep it to the SW, excluding Lagos, which has nothing whatsoever to do the with SW.

Below, is how Lagos igr is generated.
The bolded doesn't make sense at all. Education is a choice we have thousand and thousands of ariticians in the SW who barely could read or write but are doing well financially, I know a lot of them.

We have farmers who have little or no formal education that are doing well. This is common sense and this shouldn't be coming from you because sound educated and learned.

Mind you, there are thousands of graduates out there, jobless and earns little to nothing. if we are to go by your logic then it means those market women with little or not education are poor too?

This is getting funny.

Less than 10% of Anambra people pay tax: https://www.premiumtimesng.com/regional/ssouth-east/356057-only-300000-people-pay-taxes-in-anambra-commissioner.html

Obiano freezes all tax, to cushion the effects of the recession on SMEs in the state: https://nairametrics.com/2016/09/21/anambra-state-eases-tax-burden-on-grassroot-citizens/

As I said before. We actually have a private sector, where we manufacture and provide services.

Oga , anambra is even better, goan check the number of businesses that pay taxes in lagos, it's not more than 20000. Now, tell me, how come lagos generate more igr than the whole of SE combine? And who also told you that it's every household or businesses that pay tax in SW yet they beat your alaigbo paradise, right?

Nonsense.

mrvitalis:
Lol but it's stats still dropped .....you can justify this any how u want ...ekiti better than anambra ? Lamo or imo ?

Mathematics and stats don't lie because u can't manipulate it without it being obvious

Who says 87% of poor people in Nigeria are in the north ...yet u say 42 percentage of South East is poor ? ...but can't equate

Oga, stop spamming valuable space. And what do you mean by Ekiti state better than anambra, do you think stats are orally configured or base on hearsays like you are doing now? Ekiti people see mostly into farming business.

Now, drop your aba stats for reality. I hate oral.

rdokoye:
IGR is not a contribution, it's internally generrated, hence the acrynum.

South-East governors have a vested interest in keeping tax low, because unlike in other parts of Nigeria. Igboland actually has a private sector.

So, what's... igr = internally generated revenue? What's its significance, exactly?

And at the bolded, can you prove that?

mrvitalis:
The difference between them is so much and NBS stats doesn't follow the pattern

South east is the only region who's poverty increased ...like really ?

Mr man, Ekiti state was at number 1 on the table the previous years but now at no 3.

mrvitalis:
Compare WHO data or un data and NBS data ...u would see the difference

Are you expecting both tables to tally before? For crying out loud the stats were conducted by two bodies.

Easternsun2020:
Thank God, I have turned around and reset your dangling brain instead. You should really be thankful to me.

How? I've never seen where fiction beats facts.
When you beat a child with the hand you also draw him closer with the left---that is exactly what I did.

Easternsun2020:
Idiot, you were the first to start the insult when you ran out of ideas on what to say about a purely statistical scam. Is your memory failing you? Kindly leave this space and continue with your scavenging, miner. This discussion is beyond your intellectual stamina.

The insult was aim to reset your brain.

Oye pele now.

OreMI22:
When it comes to giving palliative due to poverty, of course you know they will skip the Southeasterners.
But if they had to tax or get some benefits from the poverty story, you know they will put the southeasterners first.
That is Nigeria for you.

Really? We all know SE is the least region that contributes to the Country's igr.

Lmao

Easternsun2020:
Idiot Ewedu-eating, agbo-guzzling, skull-mining and brown-roof-habitting scalliwag, nobody has said that the data of the so-called homes that got the cash transfer was correct. If you knew how to read in the first place, you should have understood that my post questioned both data. But of course, the sniper-taking Awolowo scam free education didn't teach you how to read. Idiot!

When they can no longer hold their ground, engage in intellectual debate they hide under insults.

Erm!!

Talking about browneoofs, this is Enugu.

Easternsun2020:
Exactly what we are saying. Everything is politicised including the so called number of poor released by NBS. If you believe that the list of registered poor for cash transfer as released by the FG was politicised, then it is correct for you to believe that the number of the poor as produced by NBS, an agency of the FG, is politicised too.

NBS is a body on it own though under the gov but not directly run by the gov.

This...below is an international stats focus on Nigeria poverty index. Truth is, SW has always been ahead on that table right from day one.

https://mppn.org/nigeria-national-mpi/

Easternsun2020:
According to National Bureau of Statistics, the states with the poorest people are:

- Ebonyi = 79% poverty status

- Enugu = 57% poverty status

- Abia = 30% poverty status

- Imo = 28% poverty status

Ideally, this data should reflect on the list of the poor and vulnerable registered by the FG to receive cash transfers periodically. Logic would have had it that the south east should have the highest number of registered poor eligible for cash transfer but the reverse is the case. In fact,
Zamfara state alone has over 1.3 million, Katsina has over 800,000 while the whole of southeast comprising of the 5 ' states with the poorest people' has 383,316.

Is this an irony or a willful contradiction? Are the FG and NBS lying? Who is lying; the NBS or the FG?

Please, statisticians and policy makers on nairaland should weigh in on this analysis.

https://dailypost.ng/2020/04/10/covid-19-zamfara-leads-as-fg-publishes-full-list-of-11-million-poor-and-vulnerable-nigerians/

Ogbeni just shut your akpu mouth already.

If the Nigerian gov lied do UN, WHO lied too?
Or you want to tell us the NBS is run by an individual or that one single man collocated the numbers and paste it?

NBS is run and owned by the same gov you claimed said the truth about the number of homes that got the so-called ' cash '.

Lool

So the OP believed the figures of Nigeria gov where everything politicizes and manipulated? How many people received the so-called ' money ' tonl start with? Only a fool believed that figured and imaginary numbers of people.

Loool

SS/SE again? This attachment no be small thing at all.

The link is there, that was how Boko Haram started, I pity you guys

The dude threatened to blow up SE once.

Igbere news outlet.

Aka, aba branch.

NGpatriot:
[s][/s]


Not interested in your low self-esteem, inferiority complex and annoying village mentality.

The dude is pained because we scattered all his lies yesterday,exposed all the brown roofs in alaigbo.

Kikikikikikikiki

ThatFairGuy:
Carry Those audio rice commot here please. You're listing like 10 rice Mill for ONLY Anambra. Audio Rice Mills

Lool
Audio indeed.

This reminds me of that flopped ugwu export lies.

NGpatriot:
Yes, of course.

Please, don't let the portor people pollute this thread with their village mentality.

NGpatriot:
Imota in Ikorodu.

That is good to know. Our investments must remain within the SW so that more of our people would be gainfully employed.

NGpatriot:
Only In The Great State Of Lagos.

Where is this located?

TheGodlessGod:
I think these states shouldn't be receiving federal allocation.

All northeast and north west states except Kano and kaduna.

All north central states except Abuja.

All south west state except Lagos, ondo and ogun

All south east states except enugu and anambra.

South south states are exempted.

The states I didn't mention are dragging nigeria back with poverty, terrorism etc.

They need to work harder or merge with other states doing well.

Imo and Oyo are also doing well but not enough

What's your yardstick?

You don't just sit on dirty boxer in aba and conjure figures.

kayfra:
Please write in Igbo

Anambra, the land of the billionaires and all Manson, no brown roofs.

Second picture, enugu, the pride of the yeast where poverty doesn't exist at all.

We heard or we were made to believe there is no poverty, brown roof in iboland land. So, I was wondering why chose to lie to us, deceived us?

Why lied to us all, why

So, I was wondering how come all of our photographers here chose to deceive us with these few selective images of iboland.

Or are these parts not part of iboland land too, why ain't our brothers proud of these parts too as shown below ? ;

My ibo brothers are you all with your studios and carefully selective pictures of hosted and few developed parts of your brownies region?

Its now time to take us back to the journey of brownies

When you brownies alaigbo villagers are done with your carefully select pictures I will be back to update you villages with brownies.


Today, we shall be embarking on a journey to the deeper brownies parts of alaigbo especially anambra the audio state of billionaires.
