Lagos Economy Bigger Than Kenya And Cote D Ivoire, Now Oil Has Come!! by citizenisb: 12:46am On May 06, 2016 |
http://qz.com/676819/lagos-is-africas-7th-largest-economy-and-is-about-to-get-bigger-with-its-first-oil-finds/ Lagos’ success has set it apart as a benchmark for other states in Nigeria. Internally generated revenue (IGR), mainly through taxes stood at $1.3 billion in 2015—three times more than the state with the second most IGR and 39% of the total IGR by Nigeria’s 36 states. But Lagos’ success looks even better compared to other African nations. With GDP in 2014 pegged at $90 billion, Lagos’ economy stands as the 7th largest in Africa- bigger than Cote d’Ivoire and Kenya, two of the continent’s most promising economies. A finely tuned IGR model and a growing economy has made Lagos into Africa’s leading city and one of the world’s fastest growing megacities. Now with oil production, it will grow even quicker. Remarkably, Lagos’ immense commercial potential belies its size. The smallest state out of Nigeria’s 36, Lagos’s size area is dwarfed in comparison with Africa’s biggest economies. |

Warning to all SS and SE...there is no oil in commercial quantity in Lagos. Nnamdi Kanu exposed them last yr that they were laying pipeline from Bayelsa to Lagos with hope that by next yr they will claim that Lagos has oil. Someone need to find that Nnnamdi Kanu tape...exactly as he said. This is a well engineered ploy to make it seem like SW has oil; as they falsely claimed for Ondo yrs ago...so called Ondo oil field, was stolen from Bayelsa under Obasanjo. Their propaganda media machine recently and lately has intensified. The objective of this propaganda is to make it seem to SS and SE that SW also have oil...TO CONTINUE THE ONE NIGERIA ENTERPRISE! My proposal to test this propaganda 1. If Lagos indeed has oil as claimed, let Nigeria stop all oil production in SS and SE, instead focus on Lagos and Ondo to feed the nation as SS and SE have been doing for over 50 yrs. They will refuse because THEY WILL BE EXPOSED...THERE IS NO OIL IN LAGOS AND ONDO IN COMMERCIAL QUANTITY; IT'S JUST A PLOY TO DECEIVE SS AND SE. 2. If Lagos now has oil, as with Ondo, shall we now divide this country since all regions now have oil? Oil was also found in Bornu! They will refuse because...THERE IS NO OIL IN LAGOS, ONDO AND BORNU IN COMMERCIAL QUANTITY; JUST A PLOY TO DECEIVE SS AND SE. SOMEONE NEED TO FIND THAT NNAMDI KANU TAPE IN 2015 OF PIPELINE BEING LAID FROM BAYELSA TO LAGOS...UCHE MEFOR PLS FIND THIS TAPE! 8 Likes 3 Shares |

then the Yorubas should declare their Oduduwa Republic, use yoruba as the national language, Lagos as the capital and take their destiny in their hands. Nigeria under the control of the North will continue be 3rd world underdeveloped country.. The British knew this. 1 Like |

Which oil, don't make me laugh. Look, discount everything you read in the papers, in this dispensation. It's just a big scam, to inspire confidence in this government and thus entice foreign investors. In 2020, you'll get the true gist on this oil find scam. The SW, will forever have their hands begging for oil from the Niger-Delta. 1 Like |

Surbway101: There's nothing to envy about Lagos having a high GDP. Its absolutely normal even for a third world city like Lagos. All cities with a population of over 15 million plus have similar GDP figures. What you should be concerned with is the living conditions of Lagos first. Lagos is not really a livable place you know? I've been to Nairobi and Abidjan and I have to admit that Lagos aint better than these places. They're actually more livable than Lagos. This has nothing to do with tribalism. 1 Like |
