cronsberg: The only reason you will not contribute is that there is nothing to list! Not one solid mineral or food stuff goes out from the north and taxes are paid to the FG. So sharap there playing mumu, as if there is something to contribute!......... talking like we don't know lazy,greedy, thieving northerners again. 3 Likes |

The core north minus the middle belt is holding Nigeria back, you cant argue that, however I believe they have a lot of potentials still. They are not hopeless. 3 Likes |

Am I overstretching to say the north feeds the whole nation....grains, vegetables, fruits. If thats not contribution, I dont know what that is. Before people start shouting " national coffers", with food imports slashed, more money to spend domestically. So up yours Dokpesi 1 Like |

RUBBISH. MISGUIDED IGNORAMUSES FOLLOWING A MISGUIDED IGNORAMUS LIKE SHEEP BEING LED TO THE SLAUGHTER. Has anyone asked for the source document for his figures? The official body for statistical information in Nigeria is the NATIONAL BUREAU OF STATISTICS, and its 2013 Non-Oil Exports figures shows that - Nigeria earns N305bn from Non-Oil Export – NBS 2013 Nigeria earned about N305.1billion within the first three months of 2013, figures obtained from the National Bureau of Statistics indicate. A breakdown of the figures highlighted under “2013 Export First Quarter” in the NBS’ report on ‘Merchandise Trade’, showed that export from natural rubber was N158.38 billion; raw cocoa beans attracted N62.198 billion; Sesame seeds, N20,76 billion; cotton yarn, N16.44 billion; and Leather products, N8.56 billion. Similarly, within the period under review, the export value of flowers and buds stood at N8.19 billion; footwear, N7.07 billion; tanned or crust hides, N5.41 billion; frozen shrimps and prawns, N4.96 billion; ginger, N4.09 billion; sacks and bags, N3.84 billion; cigarettes, N2.75 billion; and aluminum alloys, N2.54 billion. The exports mentioned above, which are captured under the sub-heading, “2013 Export First Quarter” in the NBS report, totaled about N305 billion. However, the NBS further said, “Analysis on exports by section revealed that mineral products contributed N3,034.2billion or 87.9 percent of total exports during the quarter, followed by plastic, rubber and associated articles with N168.1billionn or 4.9 percent; and prepared foodstuffs, beverages, spirit, vinegar and tobacco with N115.2billion or 3.3 percent. From the 2013 National Bureau of Statistics Report we can deduce; North Sesame seeds - N20.76 billion Cotton yarn - N16.44 billion Leather products - N8.56 billion. Flowers and Buds - N8.19 billion; Tanned or crust hides - N5.41 billion Ginger - N4.09 billion Sacks and Bags - N3.84 billion N & SW Cigarettes - N2.75 billion footwear, N7.07 billion SW Natural Rubber - N158.38 billion Raw Cocoa Beans - N62.198 billion Frozen shrimps and prawns - N4.96 billion The North remains the backbone of the Cement Industry in Nigeria (Dangote, Sokoto Cement, Obajana, BUA) and has seen a growth of 95.6% in the span of 8 years, beginning 2005 to 2012 according to the Nigerian Cement Industry Report 2013 and with the rapid growth forecasted for the housing sector, the figures are set to rise. Numbers do not lie. Dokpesi must be deceitful, filled with bile, ignorant and completely cerebrally incapacitated to utter such a fallacious statement which his co-travellers will swallow hook, line and sinker. 1 Like |

atlwireles: He was speaking about revenue, which the NBS report also states. The report outlines Non-Oil related revenue, of which Dokpesi stated is 72% of revenue shared. The rest of the revenue shared (28%) comes from Non-oil revenue which includes levies and taxes. The NBS report i presented breaks down this remaining revenue being shared, how can the North be then said to not contribute anything. The BIG question is what does the East produce? The east which Dokpesi cluelessly claimed contributes 8% . DonXavi: North Contributes Nothing To National Coffers –Dokpesi 1 Like |

Below is July 2012 breakdown of revenue collection. FEDERAL INLAND REVENUE SERVICE (FIRS) 15, Sokode Crescent, Wuse Zone 5, Abuja-Nigeria Tel: +234(0) 96701467 www.firs.gov.ng PRESS RELEASE NON-OIL COLLECTION UP, AS FIRS NETS N2.43 TRILLION IN 6 MONTHS The Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) has continued to record steady increases in the amount of revenue generated through taxation as it collected N2.43 trillion in the first half of year the 2012. This collection represents an increase in the revenue collection performance of N499.20 billion when compared to the total collection of N1.94 trillion for the same period in 2011. Non-oil amounted to N838.58 billion out of this total collection, while receipts from oil taxes accounted for N1.60 trillion, In 2011, the Service recorded N955.19 billion in the first Quarter and N985.30 billion in the Second quarter. The 2012 figure represents a remarkable increase in tax collection which includes Oil and Non-oil revenue with both recording N1.17 trillion and N1.26 trillion in the First and Second quarters respectively. This stride demonstrates the Service’s resolve, not only to achieve the N5.085 trillion set target for the year, but to also increase the non oil taxes and lessen Nigeria’s dependence on oil as its main revenue earner. The Acting Executive Chairman of FIRS, Alhaji Kabir Mashi, had on assumption of office, early April, charged both Management and staff of the Service to up the ante and ensure that the progressive history of tax revenue collection by FIRS over the years does not drop. A look at the collection from the Oil sources shows that N1.59 trillion was realised from Petroleum Profit Tax (PPT), while Gas Income (GI) accounted for N9.04 billion. Similarly, Non-oil sources recorded N405.58 billion collection from Companies Income Tax (CIT), N3.35 billion for Capital Gains Tax (CGT) and N3.25 for Stamp Duties in the same period. The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) Import and Non Import Value Added Tax (VAT) recorded N353.83 billion, Education Tax (EDT) accounted for N32.8, while National Information Technology Development Fund (NITDEF) yielded N8.52 billion. Personal Income Tax (PIT) and Pre-Operational Levy (POL) on the other hand yielded N28.56 billion. A further breakdown of the collection performance trend shows that the Service so far recorded the highest collection of N554.03 billion in June, followed by N466.86 in the month of February. Other collection for the period under consideration includes N385.17 billion in April, N369.38 billion in January, N336.21 billion in March and N328.02 billion in the month of May.

atlwireles: Do you see how you deceive yourself and others? Check the title of the thread. The fact is that the North contributes substantially to the National economy unlike the East which contributes nothing. For the month of May 2013, the North contributed N40 billion to the Federation account, compared to 10 billion from the East. I have figures and statistics that will shake NL and expose the prejudices, lies and deceit of the SE and other parts of the south.

atlwireles:[b] The thieves are busy posting fake IGR figures as their contribution to National coffers!!! Now IGR for Kano, Katsina or Borno state goes to the government there and where it's used to sponsor sharia police against southerners or terror groups against the entire nation and not even 0ne kobo goes to the FG! Yet, they demand for the lion share of the FG money derived from other parts of the country paid into the federal coffers!!! Dokpesi was refering to the amount PAID INTO THE FEDERAL COFFERS by northerners. I am begging the them to publish how much they take from Nigeria and how much they pay into the federal coffers as taxes from all these tomatoes,millet and onions sales they continuously claim. The bas.terds will not do that because they know they have been immorally reaping where they did not sow. It is beyond doubt that the day the north contributes a dime into the country's coffers to be used for the development of Nigeria, that is the day they will ask for a breakup of Nigeria.
