How do you spent a budget that is not even financed. You federal budget of 2016/2017 is 29B - and 9B out of it state allocation. You're just too stupid like most nigerians. Again symptoms of very poor education.

shervydman:
ur own posts doesn't make sense right since inception. Why not google how our budget is being spent and check if "states allocations" is included before spewing trash.

rvp2018:
There is simply nothing to tax. Nigeria taxes are NOT low. Looking at PWC - coorporate tax is 30%. If Nigeria was 400B economy - it would easily get 50B from coorporate tax alone - by just checking at big listed and private companies.

Look at South Africa - you federal budget is 29B - South Africa budget is more than 120B dollars I think.

There's a lot to tax because it's not uniformly collected and not organized, go back to the post you quoted and read what l wrote about the agricultural sector as only one example.

NairobiWalker:


You're here telling us how Nigeria is one hell of a disorganization and that you don't even believe the statistics of your country yet at the same time you and your brothers here in denial are claiming Nigeria's statistical capacity is up there while Kenya's is wanting. Lord have mercy.

Oh my, where did you get that from my post? Nigeria is not Kenya that has very poor statistics and figures. Many Nigerians may not be honest people, but there's no reason to cook our GDP. Politicians and the Cabals even want the outside world to believe we are poor, so they can cover their tracks.

The myth of LOW Nigeria taxes

Personal taxes - btw Kenya and Nigeria. Nigeria seem to tax more personal & corporate tax. It's not true their taxes are low - it just that people are extremely poor (140M) and another 40M(poor) - with only 20M middle class - there is nothing to tax - except Shell's Crude Oil.

Nigeria start taxing you around 300K naira (annually -kshs 83k) - in Kenya you don't get taxed until around (kshs150K) - that is TWICE !

Majority of nigeirans if they came to kenyan would be taxed zero and we don't have oil.

But you do cook your GDP. The figures don't add up. It's like that man who lives a shitty life, lives in a shitty house, owns no expensive assets, borrows little money from people all the time yet boasts to people how he makes $100,000 a year. I'm pretty sure you know of such kind of people. Facts don't lie.

Nigeria stats are totally cooked - GDP, Population, Oil consumption, cement consumption - name ANYTHING - and it's cooked. Kenya stats are very solid.

I mean the reputation of Nigeria forgery & corruption worldwide is well-earned.

Precisely remove Oil in southern part of Nigeria - and you have huge wilderness like North Kenyan - but this time populated. The northern nigeria is just wilderness..Ibandan..Kano city...those are huge slum metropolis.

You're talking about Ethiopia - 100M living mostly desert - except the few in Ethiopian highlands.
Here is KANO CITY - how many taxes do you expect from here?

Nigeria unemployment figures are hilarious - Yemi Kale over-cooked BS - who claim Nigeria has 6% unemployment - and yet the total taxes paid to Nigeria Gov minus Oil is nearly nothing. Whack methodology. Whack data. If kenya used the same - it could declare unemployment rate of 0%.

you kenyans are realy stubborn....many nigerians dont like to work for others....we work for ourselfs....

can you say somebody selling in the market and not in the statistics is not employed....??

we are not like whites....we like working for ourselfs....

jason14:
OK sir then tell ur people to stop comparing themselves to a failed state , Nigeria is a failed state , is it ur failed state? is it not our failed state ? u people should stop disturbing us and leave d forum (3rd largest in d world) that belongs to a failed state . na wa o

you'll do yourself must help when you stop creating useless articles on other countries for yourself .

There is metholody established worldwide for counting who is employed and who isn't.Anybody above 15yrs and below 65yrs is unemployed unless he is employed. Yemi kale begin by first saying those in schools - although aged above 15yrs - are not counted because they are in schools ( I stopped there )....and then he goes on & on..and on...to make his own BullSHiet methodology..and end up say Nigeria unemployment is 6% - really nigg.er - even US of A would die for such stats.

Please cook but don't overcook. 6% un-employment

Person hawking kola nuts on the street is not employed.

Fact is everybody in poor country is "employed" because you have to work to eat or sleep...unlike say developed country with social programs.

But we don't count that as employment - Nigeria will count even thugs are employed.

Using that methodology you come up with BS stats like only 6% of Nigerian are un-employed - I guess those are the disabled ones

Kenya if it used that methodology will have 0.5% unemployment but it has a realistic figure of 40% plus.

thats nonesense...una are trying too hard to be westernized....

how is selling stuff not employed...??

do you know tax collectors can visit you too as soon they see you selling things....??

Yeah Nigeria has unemployment rate of 6% way better than US - and GDP of 400B way better than South Africa & Egypt. You and I know it's BS. It grand delusion.

Obviously the number of Nigerian trying to sneak into nearly every country in the world is way more than countries at war.

I mean show me a peaceful prosperous proud african giant with 500B GDP (1.1 trillion PPP ) with 6% unemployment where people are taking suicidal boat ride to italy - I mean I can understand Somalia, Yemenis or war torn afhgan making the trip.

and how many is 6% of 80million people...??

you just dont have the numbers to understand nigeria....

western nations are cooking theirs too...i know that for a fact...i can even explain it to you if you want....

we don't see Ghana as anything , we even see Ghana as an extension of Nigeria

does Ghana look as dysfunctional as your Nigeria.
We don't even see you as a relevant country

Hawking groundnuts is not employment - it's Eking a living. The same with herding goats. All Nigerians by virtue of their poverty and the lack of social welfare programs are "employed" to survive but we don't count that statistically as employment. That would make the word meaningless.

Yeah that shervy idiot is completely nuts. Turkey 2018 budget is 209B dollars..with revenues (tax) at 191B - and it's GDP is 700B. Nigeria with their cooked oops over-cooked GDP of 400B - highest budget ever is what - 30B dollars

GDP per capita is a calculated thingy. Does not measure the real thing on ground. It involves Gross domestic product converted to international dollars using purchasing power parity rates and divided by total population.Nigerians.Your GDP is 400 b (Not really sure )while Kenya’s one is around 80 b.
The real thing to use is the human development index which we are ahead of you.

But here is where reality sinks in…

According to the World Poverty Clock, Nigeria’s struggle with overpopulation will be a problem now, rather than in 2050. Nigeria will by February 2018 overtake India as the country with the most people in extreme poverty. Currently, 82 million Nigerians live in extreme poverty, which is 42.4 percent of Nigeria’s population.

They are not talking of poverty but extreme poverty

big lie, how can Nigerian overtake india in number of people living in extreme poverty . don't you know that d number of people living in extreme poverty in India is the population of Nigeria itself

rvp2018:
First let us agree that PPP cannot be used to compare countries. We use nominal GDP in USD. I am not saying there is no use of PPP - PPP is very useful tool within the country - for say measuring poverty!

Secondly let us agree that Kenya and TZ have a free - floating currency - there is no official exchange rate and black market one.Right now Central Bank of Nigeria has fixed an exchange rate of 306USD for naira - but the market rate is something 360 plus.If we use the real market rate - Nigerai GDP (and it's per capita) - will drop drastically from $400B to $320B - and my contention is that 320B is still cooked..Nigeria GDP should be around 250B.

Kenya is not rich - but it's growth has been solid 6% for the last 15yrs and it's predicted to grow at 6% for next 15yrs....and so by 2030-2035...it will have overtaken South Africa if she continues in her current mess.Nigeria is hopeless. She has to wean herself of OIL before we can talk about her.

dude u are pained , even if president of world bank come and show you d stats by himself u will not still gree loooooll

Man that’s just pathetic.. You are quoting blogs now

World Bank, Silly.
