s a state you must borrow! You cant run an effective and sustainable develooment project or governance structure without borrowing. Even america live on borrowings. They are indebted to the tune of 1.8 trillion dollars. The whole of africa combined in the next 50 years wont be able to have such amount in their accounts combined! Dangote lives on credit. Take away from him and he crumbles like a cookie..... Being indebted does not mean you r poor or useless...u need credit to start projects now as you can then pay monthly or yearly. ....but nothing to show for their massive debt. [/quote] |

deomelo:Your brain dey touch? The SE region owes the least debt at only 7% of total debt! Ostrich, you better cry for your waste region that is already worse than Greece in terms of debt. A very poor state like Osun is owing such outrageous debt that will take many generations to offset and instead of you guys to ask Aregbe how he managed to destroy Osun, you are here calling SE that is fiscally prudent! Is that how obsessed you lots are with Igbos? Chineke Mere Unu Ebere! 5 Likes 1 Share |

Its just the no man's land called Lagos that is hiding the backwardness your region embodies. Remove Lagos & SW will be worse than NE! THATS A FACT!!! 6 Likes |

I attended a federal government college in the south west. One observation I noted is that the biggest tribalists and bigots are those from very poor backgrounds. OP, see how inferiority complex occasioned by poverty and lack of proper education has made you so bigoted that you spend all your time making silly and irrelevant posts on SE Nigeria. I pray you get over your obsession one day. 4 Likes |

BiafraIShere: lol.. How dare you compare a piggy bank(Igboland) with central bank(Yorubaland).The size of your small enclave (Igboland)is almost the size of OYO state,just a part in Yorubaland and 45 million of Igbos have not been able to develop this small enclave into eldorado.In spite of your rituals,drugs peddling,baby factory etc and with your late civilization,you still have brown roofs in your small enclave.The singular evidence that Yorubas are richer than the Igbos,are their numerous massive industries, highest number of private universities,private colleges,real estate people,ICT people etc.Do not be delusional and compare a small enclave filled with 3000 houses with a large area where 1000000 houses are scattered all over.Do not be like Ojuku.. 3 Likes |

deomelo: I hope you know that Osun state, Ogun, ondo ekiti and Oyo are all indebted to Anambra state? Maybe it time to place your states on olx. Ladies and gentlemen. Anambra state under peter obi, invested millions of dollars in bond market, these bonds were sourced by most States in Nigeria, thereby making southwest states ,except lagos indebted to Anambra state. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Ex-governor Peter Obi of Anambra State got me thinking. Two weeks ago, he was giving an account of his eight years stewardship and he announced some figures: N75 billion as credit balance in the state’s accounts and no debt over-hang. That figure, he said, included balance in savings and in investment. Then the big one: Anambra State under him invested in bonds issued by other state governments. Since he made that statement, I have not heard anyone say he lied. It was a combination of these that actually got me thinking —Anambra State that was not paying salaries post 1999, pre-2003; Anambra State of war and lawlessness in Chris Ngige era; the same Anambra that was home of violence and inexplicable crimes. Obi said the state he was leaving behind was not owing anybody a dime; rather, the state invested in bonds issued by other states! Then, I remembered that out of the six states in the South-West, only one has not gone to the Capital Market to take money through bond issuance. What has that told me? It means that my South-West is indebted to South East’s Anambra State — and that is serious. I know some partisan fellows will say ‘and so what?’ They can say so because for such fellows, the only reference they make to the past is using it to cover up the eczema of today. None of the founding fathers of Western Nigeria would ever imagine that a day would come when Yorubaland would owe Iboland. Some international financial experts have warned that the current craze for bonds by African countries, including PDP’s Nigeria, will soon lead to what they call “Eurobond curse” just as the continent is wracked by “resource curse.” Some queer commentators would say the warning was directed at national governments. At the state level, the alarm bell should really sound louder. A recent report quoted Joseph Stightz, a Nobel prize-winning economist, as warning that “the financial sector loves to find people to prey on and their most recent prey are governments in developing countries.” The same is happening at the domestic level. Cash-strapped state governments should know that there are no friendly financial institutions. They are in business to make money and it does not matter how. I do not know what economics is behind the current craze for bonds. Some are even saying bonds are no loans. What are they? Gifts? Won’t they pay back? And at what interest rate? They would even pay costs of the transaction — they call it ‘issue costs?’ Are there consultants packaging these bonds? If there are, who are they? What are their fees? Yorubaland currently suffers unprecedented, unfortunate and insulting, venal shut-out in the affairs of the PDP Federal Government. The alternative regimes in the states ought to give reasons for hope, not debt over-hang. Nothing should be done by anyone to bond the race to a future of criminal servitude. Governments have to provide amenities, yes. But have we forgotten what our ancestors said about he that eats benefits derivable from a child even before that child is born?
