somegirl1:Lagos was built by the world and not even all Nigerians. It is multicultural city with Koreans, japanese, Americans, Lebanese, Europeans, and of course Arabs are present and pumping billions into it. None is garrulous and rude enough, apart from the landlocked people from East of the Niger that claims what they are not and what they do not have to offer. I repeat, give it to the yorubas for the enabling environment created for Lagos to be the melting point of the world for Africa, If it was volatile with religious crisis or militancy no one will dare invest there. Apart from that, you need to salute their administrative skill. Tell me a region that is more accommodating than SW in this country. Just 1. Point of correction, Lagos ports are not the only functional ports. Onne in PH s functional and it is closer to SE. Warri is functional and it is closer to SE. People import through Lagos because that axis provides a sales opportunity that is not obtainable anywhere else. Simple. You are talking of almost 50million people in that axis alone and with a sizable number having the capacity to buy anything up for sales. 4 Likes |

somegirl1: It does not have to attest to it because SW is an imaginary geographical expression. In as much as it is Oduduwa's land, it belongs to all. Our forefathers made Oyo the capital of yorubas centuries ago and when they deemed it fit, it was moved to Ibadan up till the days of the Awolowo and subsequent generations have made Lagos capital of the Yorubas, our collective commonwealth and heritage. If we like, we can move same to Yagba in Kogi when we so wish. For now, we are concentrating our effort on Lagos and it is rubbing off on other contiguous states. 3 Likes |

superstar1:I haven't travelled enough around Nigeria so I won't engage in a debate about hospitality across regions. You may take credit for being accommodating, however hospitality is only a miniscule factor. Other SW states are/ should be equally accommodating afterall. I'm glad we agree Lagos's economy is the result of combined effort. 2 Likes |

django1:That was never the basis for this debate. The point was if regional/ state performance were to be compared based on ethnicity, it would be unfair to include Lagos's given it's multi-ethnic composition unless other SW states mainly comprising of yorubas performed just as well. 1 Like |

somegirl1: If SW was not habitable, just like SE and NE, you would have seen yorubas migrating to other regions in droves, as being witnedssed in the migration of Syrians to Europe and Eritreans to Europe. Alas, the reverse is the case, with more people migrating to SW in a ratio of 1500:1 when compared to the ones emigrating out of SW to other regions. Yeah, agreed other parts of SW might not be on the same level as Lagos. You will also agree with me that there is no mass exodus out of those places to other regions. That means the standard of living, infrastructure and nature is better than other regions. 1 Like |

superstar1: You keep jumping from debate to debate. Habitability was never the basis for this debate. The SE is actually quite habitable and accommodating to non-indigenes. Many people just prefer to form an opinion without having had first hand experience of the region and its people. Take a look at the land mass of what is left of the SE (after the SS was carved out from it) relative to other regions. It is the tiniest region. The entire land mass of core SE states is almost the same as that of Oyo state. It shouldn't come as a surprise that SE indigenes would spread out to other parts of the country and continent regardless of habitability. 1 Like |

this is grossly understated though. i know for a fact that lagos earns over 500bn. thanks to shell companies who do coded business in residential areas and dont pay taxes |
Re: States Internally Generated Revenue: See How Much Your State Generates. by Nobody: 9:04pm On Oct 26, 2015 |
somegirl1: So you mean the IGR of other states are a result of taxes from just a single ethnic group? Do not forget that Lagos is still majorly Yoruba in everything (economy, politics and culture). Just as the south south has the advantage of oil, south west has the advantage of Lagos, a strategically located state with abundant human resources. Lagos is part and parcel of south west. 1 Like |

Chigold101: Can you honestly tell me you understand what IGR is? we're talking about internally generated revenues of each states and it has nothing to do with federal allocation. |
Re: States Internally Generated Revenue: See How Much Your State Generates. by Chigold101(m): 1:18am On Oct 27, 2015 |
MeandSum:Humn... From the point I made which you quoted where does this question come from? IGR simply means the revenue that you got from you got internally. Now before you ask me another stuupid question. Remember that this so-called IGR comes from only the the things the federal Government allows you to collect tax from. Tax on oil and other mineral resources which are being explored and exploited by multi nationals are pages directly to the federal government account, or the managing federal ministry account. Now tell me, what Akwa Ibom will look like if Federal government allows them to collect tax directly from oil companies that exploit oils in their land? Or is the oil not gotten from their land. Before you ask another foolish question... Remember that when it comes to IGR, state government only declares those ones that are directly under their management. They don't include the ones that local government council areas collect. In Nigeria revenue collection are divided into 3. Federal has their own jurisdiction, state has their own and local government council have theirs too. AAlocation from federal gogovernmen comes from what was paid to federal government, and it is always divided into three. I will not educate you on how it is shares percentage wise. Don't quote me again... Good morning 1 Like |
