Delta state is not a one city state.
Everybody in Nigeria has heard of Warri, Sapele, Ughelli, Abraka etc.

tell me who hasnt heard of V.I, Ikeja, Lekki, Oshodi and so on ... Comparin Delta to Lagos ... U only made ma laffin spree continue .. Afta hearin some pple claimin Osun and Ebonyi av more infrastructure ... The OP is nt askin 4 ur state of origin

Any which way na way... Na •̸ϞƔ‎​‎​‎​ state oƒ‎​ mind

I think Cross-River state trumps here. Relatively of course. No private power but there is a power plant being built outside Calabar.

Ejiné: Of course the answer is Lagos.

I was just about to laugh at a guy who said "Osun State", only to see another who said "Ebonyi"!!!!! LMFAO!!

..hey!..have u(Beaf included) been 2 osun state recently?..lotta construction weck gwan-on bru...d guv'nor is defnately wecking.... State of d virtuous!.

cyril83: says who FG invested oil money in lagos,if you say agriculture money fine!since the advent of this crude oil,tinubu and fash can account di amount FG had invested to the state...have you forgotten that obasanjo refused to pay allocation to lagos for years...@op you ursef know appropriate answer to this question,even if you ask a new born baby he will definately tell you LASGIDi

Your analogy is wrong. Lagos was very much developed before states like Akwaibom was created... Relatively, considering the rate of infrastructural development, within 4 years that state had become a model state with first class road networks, tourist centre, booming economy etc.. I give it to Akwaibom ibom

opoke: Ebonyi State has excelled in all that you mentioned. Carry go Chief Martin Elechi the peoples Governor.

There should be a slap button for people like you

I didn't compare Delta to Lagos, I simply made it clear that Delta is not a one city state like the others.

Delta state generates by far more money for Nigeria than Lagos anyway, it also has a higher Human Development Index (HDI)... If you want to draw things out, I'm ready to shock you.

Cleanman: ..hey!..have u(Beaf included) been 2 osun state recently?..lotta construction weck gwan-on bru...d guv'nor is defnately wecking.... State of d virtuous!.

Dude, there is no part of Osun state that is not like a village compared to other states.
You people had better learn to travel a bit more and expand your horizons, bringing Osun up in a discussion about infrastructure if really laughable.

Who is this dude?

You have to be the dumbest dude ever.

According to figures from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Annual Report and Statement of Accounts for 2009, Lagos came top by generating 62.14 per cent of its total revenue (TR) through IGR.

The TR comprises gross statutory allocation, augmentation, share of excess oil revenue, VAT, IGR, grants as well as stabilisation funds and others.

For the 2009 fiscal year under review, out of a total of N224 billion realised by Lagos as income, N139.20 billion was generated from IGR.

Sokoto, which followed with 47.74 per cent, had N72.90 billion, out of which N34.80 billion was IGR.

Ogun with a total revenue of N54.80 billion had IGR of N16.10, had 29.38 per cent of its total income, while Rivers, an oil-rich state, which collected the highest total revenue - that is, N248 billion (with 13 per cent derivation fund) - could only generate N71.30 billion, translating to 28.75 per cent.

The Delta State Government’s internally generated revenue has soared to a record N36 billion naira per annum more than double its previous earnings of N15 billion per annum grossed in the last two years, according to its Board of Internal Revenue.

This forum is laughable.

According to the World Bank and DFID, Lagos’ 2009 GDP is estimated at N4.163tn. Lagos which is a mega-city is the largest contributor to the national GDP at 18%. Lagos’ GDP ranks 6th after Cairo ($98 billion); Johannesburg ($79 billion); Cape Town ($75 billion). Its GDP equals that of Kenya ($29.5 billion) which has a higher population (30million) than Lagos. Lagos boasts of a higher GDP than Cameroun ($20.6 billion), Cote d’ Ivoire ($19.6 billion) and Ghana ($15.2 billion) which have populations of 19, 21 and 24 million people respectively.

Lagos contributes 18% of Nigeria's GDP.

If you think I am dumb, then you are really foolish and ignorant.

The following states keep Nigeria alive:

Rivers
Delta
Bayelsa
Akwa Ibom

They pay your governors salaries, your LG bosses salaries etc. Without the states mentioned, dumb people like you would be no better than citizens of Somalia, because Nigeria exists on awuf. A country where the people are so phucked up, they can't even manufacture a pin.

I can't understand what someone who is no better than a beggar has to boast about.

Lagos feeds your family, without Lagos you won't have a PC right now. A state with a higher GDP than all the countries in West Africa, and most countries in East Africa is not to be messed with. You're not a very smart chap.

Empty barrels!

IGR does not include oil money which you parasite on, bro.

According to your own figures, Delta state which has one third of Lagos states population, produced IGR that is comparable to that of Lagos on a per capita basis. That makes you look a right id!ot. No?

Secondly, as long as the awuf culture remains; the oil money from Delta state will always dwarf anything Lagos can dream of generating, from now until eternity.

I am sure you are a mere kid. Without oil, you would be like a Somalian.
Anyway, you talk like every other parasite I've encountered. All hot air, lies and no sense.

Who in Nigeria has benefited from the oil money, except your man at the helm of affairs and his cronies. Keep your oil and your oil money, and divide the country already.

I'm more worried about Islamists destroying the ancient city of Timbuktu, than another potential militant rat from the narrow-minded region, in a mistake of a geographical creation called, Nigeria Nigger-area.

Ask your governor if his salary is from IGR.
What a clown!

The least you can do, is be grateful to those who feed you, either directly or indirectly. I'll list them again:

Rivers
Delta
Bayelsa
Akwa Ibom

lets be honest to ourselves,with out oil&gas nigeria by now,will be in deep shiiit,look at sudan everything has gone up food transport etc the foreighn exchange we got from oil is why activities is happening in nigeria,our farmers dont bring up to 20% in the country GDP,american interest is on niger delta they dont realy care about the rest of the country lets be honest.For oil to flow without interruption they need to work with the owners...boko haram will never get the same attention like the militants in ND,power tussle haahahaha that is what we are seeing in nigeria N hav lost it and they dont want to accept it..........

Nobody wants his/her state to be left out, even Ebonyis and Osuns are mentioning theirs. My own state nko? I no see am for the list. lol

Most Nigerians are simply deluded. The damnable crude oil and gas sector is the third highest earner or contributor to Nigeria’s GNP.

bashr8: lagos abuja and rivers, those are states where federal government have invested oil money the most, everyother state are on their own.

my broda u just spoke my mind.isues lyk ds lagos abuja nd ph shoud be left out,especaly lagos an ex fct wic every tribe in nija contributd 2 its suces.dy shud bring any westrn state infact travel 2d west there u wil knw dy re just noise makers
