Uptill now, the issue of states in southwest,
perticularly Oyo and Osun still bothering me and why they are owning their workers,
in getting solution to that I got this article that will interest you.

Its a fact surrounding the current issues in southwest and other states. Facts...

Federal Allocation - Does The South-West Deserve this?

As released by the Federal Ministry of Finance, the total allocation to all the South-West states, namely, Lagos, Osun, Oyo, Ondo, Ekiti and Ogun for January this year and shared in February was N15.1
billion, while Akwa Ibom State alone with a population less than 3 million people got N13.9 billion! “For the same period. Bayelsa State, at arguably 2 million people, got N10 billion
and Rivers State got N10.3 billion. Between Kano and Jigawa states, which used to be
one state like Lagos State, they got N7 billion. Lagos State only got N3.4 billion.
“If you remove Ekiti State with the lowest allocation of just N2.3 billion, Akwa Ibom State alone gets more allocation than the
rest of the South-West states put together including Lagos. And guess what? Hundreds of thousands of Akwa Ibom State citizens are in Lagos State enjoying the state’s free
education”. “If you multiply the total allocation to the South-
West states at N15 billion per month by 12, you have N180 billion per year! This is less
than 30% of what the FG make from the Lagos Seaports alone, don’t even talk about VAT that Lagos contributes over 60% of the
total accrual to the FG.

“Yet some morons will tell me we live on Niger Delta oil.”
“Now, my State Governor can’t pay his workers because of this systemic injustice.
It is better we start the implementation of regional based fiscal federalism now.

What a slowpoke you are! Nobody is getting anything certainly not Akwa Ibom. Akwa Ibom and the oil producing states are giving 87% of its oil revenue to all the other states in Nigeria and only keeping a mere13%.
The FG allocation / revenue sharing is based on productivity not on a gift bases. If osun which has the highest deposit of gold in Nigeria was mining its gold, it would not be complaining of low allocation short fall. Lagos will join oil producing states by year end 2015, lets see what happens when lagos start getting its 13% oil derivation?
Stop the jealousy of the oil revenue and ask your lazy governors to look for ways of generating income through IGR rather than everyone waiting for oil bailouts at the end of the month. You should be thankful for the oil producing states for carrying the nations bills on its back since 1956! If the oil was found in other region i bet they will not be as generous as the oil region are.

BackDatAssUp:



Akwa Ibom, Delta, Bayelsa, Rivers and Cross Rivers have a total combined longer coastline than your region.

Do you think they will not develop their maritime sector to compete with you?

You have nothing.

Tin Can Port was built from the ground and
commissioned in 1979 with our oil money.

Wharf in Apapa was expanded and upgraded in the 70's with our oil money.
Stop beating that flat dry chest

If they have the lingest coastline why are their ports moribund? Tin can was built with oil money? Where is the evidence, are you saying revenue from ports can not sustain port expansion?
Ok how much did the Niger Delta invest in oil exploration? Didn't the north claim that they are the major investors in oil exploration in the Niger Delta?

I am happy to beat my chest, if you beat your chest because oil is located in your land, i should beat my chest that my state is the industrial and commercial back bone of Nigeria. Shut down Lagos for a week and watch Nigeria haemorage uncontrallably.

huptin:


No need to create more ports, they are already in existence all you need to do is make them more functional, simple. It will become clear to you that building ports is easy attracting requisite business is the real deal.

Lagos ports is viable because of its proximity to industries, if those ports must function you will need to industrialise the south south first. Oyel is over rated. It will soin become clear to you.

No. The other ports are not viable because of negative govt policies

Warri port for example only handles services to the Oil industry and is not as a matter of policy allowed to handle other goods.

This is the case for Koko, Port Harcourt and Calabar ports.

Govt policy is what is affecting these ports and has nothing to do with your packaging industries in Osun and Oyo.

Can you compare the level of local industries in Aba which manufactures clothing, shoes and heavy industrial parts to your indomie packaging firms in the Southwest.

Shey you are aware of Innosun motors which has been in existence before Goodluck convinced Nissan to start an assembly plant in your useless region.

Tin Can was built from the ground by Obasanjo in 1979.

Go and research all the major infrastructure in Lagos from Ports, bridges, roads, airport, stadium, and Festac estate and National theatre they were all built by Murtula and Obasanjo after Oil was Nationalized.

As for you ediots claiming that you and the north developed our oil industry simply go and reserach the oil industry in Nigeria which was funded by Multi National companies.

Stop beating your flat dry chest.

nonaira:
Oh shut up .

Are you contributing to oil production as much as Delta, AK, Bayelsa or Rivers? The answer is a capital f2king NO.

Are you dealing with acidic rain, land degradation, oil spillage that each oil producing state go through daily? Once again a Capital f2king NO.

The same seaport you speak of who patronizes it the most, who uses it the most? is it not SS and SE traders especially SE traders, the same people you mock for trading.

In my f2king opinion, they giving you SW too much. You not bringing much to the table yet get the one of the highest allocation after AK, delta, rivers, etc

The funniest thing is that you people don't know your rights until we educate you about it.

huptin:


Your oyel sustain parasites, i come from a state that sustains the whole country, so i am not ungrateful, you should be grateful to my state for accomodating and sustaining the whole country....yes i am a proud indigene of Lagos.

You have nothing.

In case you forgot, your fellow parasitic Yoruba OP is demanding for more oyel money.

Lazy thief

[size=18pt]Aregberascal the Ooni of Gbesse Land aka governor of Osun has since declared that he can not govern Osun without Niger Delta oil[/size]

Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun State has described as unjustifiable a 40 per cent reduction in the federal allocation being received by the state since July 2013.
Aregbesola spoke in Lagos on Thursday during the launching of a book, ‘Yoruba Elites and Ethnic Politics in Nigeria: Obafemi Awolowo and Corporate Agency.’ The book was written by an associate professor at the University of California-Davies, Wale Adebanwi.
The governor said the reduction had no basis as the nation’s oil revenue did not fall.
He said, “If there is anything my state does not have now, it’s money. We are managing with 40 per cent reduction in our allocation from the Federal Government. It is not as if I even enjoy saying I depend on the federal allocation, but the truth is that there is no magic that I would have made to suddenly taken our state out of dependence on the federal allocation.
“It is important for us to know that there is no justification for that 40 per cent reduction in our allocation. The price of crude oil has remained almost the same at $108 per barrel, and the benchmark, according to them, is $75 per barrel.”
According to the governor, the state is now being forced to source for funds outside the federal allocation in order to meet its responsibilities of paying the entitlements of civil servants and retired workers.
He said, “So we are not close to the benchmark of $75 and yet since July of last year, there is a 40 per cent reduction in our allocation. What that translates to I will tell you.
“It means I have to get N5.4bn to augment salaries and pension from July to December; N5.4bn extra, outside allocation, to ensure that since civil servants who are still active and those who have retired are paid their entitlements.
“What I receive from federation account is not sufficient to pay salaries.”
The governor, who represented a former governor of Lagos State and National Leader of the APC at the event, Bola Tinubu, who was the chief presenter of the book, bought copies of the new book at N5m on behalf of the Osun State.
He bought copies of the book on behalf of himself with N500,000 and announced N2m for the launching of the book on behalf of Tinubu.

This is the only sensible thing i can see in all that crap you posted.

That is why i also want true Federalism.

Yerebas and noise making nawa o! God Almighty knows that if he were to put this oil that is now a national cake in yereba land, it will not favor others because of yerebas hate and backstabbing nature.

You call multi national firms packaging industries, I laff in japanese, so its only Innoson you can shout, if there are no industries here, how come your people were crying when some touts asked them to leave? they should have gone back now and enjoy your wonderful industries in your region. Only Agbara in Ogun state alone has 5 times more industries than the whole of south east.

Lazy thief

He is not demanding for more oil money, he is demanding a fair share of revenue derived from his region, simple. Oyel money can barely feed the south south talk less of the whole nation. Akwa Ibom the richest oil state can not even afford to pay salries, have you ever heard lagos complain, despite receiving less than 2% of total revenue generated from there?

BackDatAssUp:

Stop beating your flat dry chest.

As at 1979, oil contributed less than 50% to government's total revenue, so how did you come up with the notion that it was oil money that was used to build the ports? once again i ask you, are your saying revenue generated from ports cannot be used to build new ones and expand the exisiting ones? You over rate your importance to the economy, but i assureyou that your government can never under estimate the importance of Lagos to the survival of the country, you remember the oil subsidy protests and how Goodluck was almost shitting in his pants just becos lagos was partially shut down for one week, imagine a total blockade of the Lagos ports, you people will have to drink your oyel to survive.

Once again i will say this and please you may write it down "Lagos ports will still be in existence and will be generating more revenue long after your Oyel has become totally as worthless as pure water" #fact.

Yet ogun state is owing salaries and most SE states are not.
There is more poverty and unemployment in the SW than the SE.
For a region that houses the most industrious and technically-inclined people in africa your post is pretty insulting.
This was the same way you guys said that Osun has a bigger IGR than the whole of the SE until when the truth now came to light.
One day, breeze go blow and fowl yansh go open.
Keep deceiving your self.

Did i hear you say most SE states are not? Abia=10months, Ebonyi= 8 months, Imo=5 months, Enugu (owing all its parastatals 10 months salary)
So where did you get your statistics from? By the way those people who are not being paid salaries are probably in the south west, hawking gala or selling bend down select to survive.

Ask your self a question in terms of revenue, how much exactly does the SE contribute to Nigeria? How much is it getting from The Federal government?
Dont mention oil o, cos the amount of oil in the SE is not even as much as that of Ondo alone, now the south west does not only contirbute oil, they account for about 80% of total non oil revenue, and their land is the industrial and commercial nerve centre of the whole country, yet they can't even get 13% of the total revenue they generate? What is good for the goose is good for the gander, If the SS gets 13% of their total oil earnings despite the fact that a huge chunk of their cistizens are in lagos, putting pressure on Lagos infratructure, Then Lagos should retain a huge chunk of its ports and VAT earnings. That is justice.

1)U are a fool to have believed /cook that we SW only got 15bn since jan
2)ur stupidity is outstanding free education in lagos??are they suppose to pay tuition fees in public skul after reg with 10k. The revenue u are bragging about is the igbos nt the ones paying bunch of it
3)is it ur land that is supposed to chronic land destruction after exploration
4)u want fiscal federalism yet ur likes said confab is a waste

If there is any justice in this world, all Akwa Ibomites putting strain on Lagos infrastructures should be deported back to AK, that way, the AK government will not host the largest concentration of civil servants who are billionaires.
