The first 10 on the log, no SE states despite their ever chest-beating attitude.

5 SS states make the list as expected These states wouldn't have much contributions in the absence of oil

SW State have 2 states in the first 5 - Not bad considering the absence of oyel.

2 states surprise me most. Benue and my state (Ekiti). I see these 2 states as poor and not well established enough to compete favourably with other states because of their sizes and age. But they both try to have been in that position. Kundus

Cross River's position is embarrassing considering her history and rich background.

GDP is the measure of wealth of a state or country and not IGR. Most states like Lagos, port harcourt etc igr are high due to foreign coys etc and federal government presence and not basically taxable public population. That’s while a state like Anambra, Imo and Abia is far more developed than states you may be hyping for high igr.
Post the GDP of states nd most especially GDP per capital of each state: this shows how wealthy a state is

Instead of you to take a bitter pill and be humble for once. In an attempt to prove something, you expose yourself as an ignorant more. Please point to the presence of FG in Benue and Ekiti that was just created years back against Abia, Imo and Anambra. Mention the presence of the FG in Oyo. List the multinational companies headquarters in Benue and Ekiti.

By the way, why mentioning GDP. Where did you see GDP in the write up? In an attempt to prove what is not true, you quickly mentioned GDP to boost your libido. Had that region ever accepted responsibility before? They are know for shifting goalpost and blaming others. They never learned

Nigeria is nothing without Lagos. The British were smart to merge Lagos Colony into Southern Nigeria which itself merged with Northern Nigeria creating one Nigeria. If not with no Lagos, Nigeria will be so poor.

Eko o ni baje oo!

PrivateSeal:
Ekiti has more VAT than Ondo,

Aiyedatiwa is a standard failure

Ekiti has been leading but Ondo and Osun since over 3 years now. It is worrisome to imagine the former Ondo state that we know

How can you get per capital of your state when most of your people can't live in your states. Make your states viable stop ranting.

Irony1:


Mention the parasite states, let us know who they are. Don't be scared no one will beat you, just mention them.

the statistics has already mentioned the states or are you so blind to see it?

ProudlyLagos:
illiterate ipob trader…..I won’t even dignify the nonsense you wrote with a response, go and entrol in adult class so you can advance your knowledge about how VAT is calculated, Otondo

I am not talking about the calculation, I am talking about its impact on citizens who are mostly civil servants(fixed-income earners). VAT is indirect tax like you have GST/HST in the west. For instance in canada HST is 13% in ontario, but 5% in Alberta. It means cost of living expenses is significantly lower in Alberta than Ontario. A reason why many workers are moving to there. Same thing in Nigeria, sales tax in Anambra is lower than in ekiti even though there's are more SMEs there than in Ekiti. It simply means COL in Anambra is lower than in Ekiti. It's not something to beat chest about

datola:
Ogun state at number 20

I wonder too, with the number of Companies in Ogun State, I dont expect that low.
Even OyO State, they Say dont have companies like Ogun generate way more. They are no Match

I wonder why Cross River is in that Embarrassing position too...

So incoherent 🤦

Smartcitizen:


Lagos is not the moon, people will always come to Lagos because it is a land owned by the Benis.



😎😎😎

Sibrah:
Northern states be generating next to nothing yet they all have delegates stoning a spirit in Saudi Arabia as we speak.

Stop Ethno-religio-tribal bigotry and egocentricity. The VAT generated from Lagos and Rivers is due to company headquarters effect. Till now, VAT are not domiciled at consumption point but manufactured and turn-in point.

No naaaa stop trying to be half clever. Mention the states naaaa have some balls and mention them. Anambra had a better VAT that Ogun, Osun, Ondo and Ekiti.

Move those oil HQs which in turn have created new opportunities back to the host states and come and tell me this your talk 🦜

Henix:
Anambra and Abia states suppose to be generating more than they are currently doing.

low tax rate for faster economic growth

Did your wrwtch state generate anything before Tinubi was president ?!

I am guessing it is one of the Igbo state ?

SpecialAdviser:
I don't really want my state to generate anything Tinubu and his family will loot.

Thats very interesting question. This exactly makes state where most of them can't live in their states quite unique in the sense that those states with their average per capital income are actually far more economically stronger than those that where they “migrate to live. Take example like Lagos, the major tribe in Lagos always cry that the migrants are taking and putting pressure in their resources. Most of these migrant in quote are marginally better off than their host. They raises money and send to their individual states while most of the indigenous people are poorer. Now you can see that despite the fact they move in other states, other states where they moved are not better off: they still live in horrible houses, poor asses to education, poor road infrastructure etc.

Name two or three states from your perspective and sound judgment that is VIABLE than the states where those that you said can't live in their state is going.
Can you name two or three viable states according to you and just mentioned one thing that makes them better off than others. Lol.

Apart from Lagos state that was once a capital

Bottom line is make your state viable, by promoting peaceful coexistence.

the use.less governor is to be blamed

sagitariusbaby:
We have seen the real parasite states but they won't be quiet still.

This is amazing ...monkey dey work ..baboon dey chop

Lagos can generate the whole money for the other Nigerians ....

If you don't like it, ask for dissolving of Nigeria

The Ogun figure is disgraceful!

Mowyou are quoting bottom line to me. 😆. Simple question, apart from Lagos and Abuja, name one state that is viable according to even your standard. You are afraid to mention your state or whai 😆. Name one Mr viable state and leave bottom line for the next chapter.

Olodo! The summary of what I wrote their is that IGR is not the measure of how wealthy/rich a state is but GDP. Ekiti and Benue you mentioned does not have high IGR and yes, federal government presence is very low. Three top state with strong federal government presence are Lagos, Abuja as a state, Rivers. IGR of these states are because of multinational coy and oil/ gas. Ogun enjoys the inflow of a lot of coy as a result of it nearness to Lagos. Oyo’s brown roofs Do equally generates igr from its massive old mud strutures. I am joking with this last line before you hang…..,,,,,self
