There are Nominal GDP and Real GDP.
A nation or state that has high nominal GDP will come down when real GDP comes to bear if the state is poor in some of the indicators.

Table 1.
Nominal GDP.
Take 2.
Real GDP
Watch how India pushed both UK and France under it in the real GDP.
Table 3.
What Real GDP is all about taking Nominal GDP.....its baby....into cognizance.

Table 4.
Nigeria's states Real GDP.

Your problem is you do not understand the English language.....Nominal and Real.....unfortunately for you,they cannot write these in Igbo language for you to understand.So sad.
I need the list of largest economy, since you're so stupid not to go through the table you posted, so Osun economy is bigger than Abuja grin grin

Even Abia you guys condem every day on media and accuse their leaders of being criminals, actually ranked low in debt when compare to western states, Abia rank higher than Oyo, Ekiti and Osun in sustainability index

Aba has lots of potentials but unfortunately, over the years, being run by mediocre leaders.

However, infrastructures are in decay as I write.

The new rebasing of Nigerian Gross Domestic Product (norminal ) by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) 2014 positioned the Nigerian economy as the largest in Africa, they are trying to do they same with state level, is a measure in monetary terms of production of all goods and services during a period. Like the compilation at the national level, State accounts statistics are based on the guidelines and recommendations set out in the System of National Accounts 2008 (SNA 2008). The System of National Accounts provides an internationally-recognised framework and a comprehensive set of concepts, definitions and classifications for national accounting. Additionally, other relevant guidelines adopted are the International Standard Industrial Classification of all Economic Activities (ISIC) as well as the Central Product Classification (CPC) system.
States GDP compilation is important and useful for various purposes. First, it provides important information to support evidence-based policymaking. It also helps to identify key drivers of economic growth in each state and assess the performance of the state economy. Further, by revealing the structure of the state economy, the contribution of each state to the national output can be determined.
Methodologically, National/State accounts describe all flows within a period between the economic units constituting the national /state economy and their stocks. As such, the States accounts can follow national accounts as long as one can clearly define and delineate a state, and its resident units in terms of institutional units, production units, consumer units within it. In short, SGDP is the sum of gross value added of all resident producer units (industries) within the economic borders of the state during a given period of time including taxes, less subsidies, on products.
The institutional units / sectors in the States include: Non-financial corporations (Flour Mills, Nestle, etc), Financial corporations (Banks, Insurance etc), State governments, Non-profit institutions serving households (NPISH) in the state, and Households. In compilation of SGDP, residence is not based on birth or legal criteria. Instead, an institutional unit is classified as resident if it has a centre of economic interest in the economic territory of a state. Certain activities cut across state boundaries, and thus their economic contribution cannot be assigned to any one state eg telecommunication, Railway line, Transportation, Banking & Insurance. Other activities like Defence, paramilitary, border security force, high sea drilling etc are kept outside the purview of the state GDP. Key data sources included in SGDP compilation include secondary/administrative data, surveys, financial statements, audited State government accounts and VAT returns, among others.
In practice, the compilation of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) estimates for sub-national units of the Federation has been a phased exercise at the National Bureau of Statistics since 2013. In the first phase, estimates for eleven (11) States Akwa Ibom, Bayelsa, Cross River, Delta, Kaduna, Kano, Ogun, Osun, Oyo, Rivers and Zamfara – were published in October 2018, providing estimates for states GDP for the five-year period covering 2013-2017. The completion of this initial phase of the SGDP compilation exercise revealed new insights regarding the structure of sub-national economies, while also demonstrating an improvement in statistical capacity for producing both national and state accounts, second phase was released in April 2019.

If we are to take the average of SS & SW, the SW will not be higher than the SS. Besides, Ekiti & Osun have a far smaller population of Yorubas compared to Oyo, Ondo & Ogun.

With the way you Yorubas make noise online, one would think that u so much believe in yourselves in real life and u are strongly pushing for the division of Nigeria, not knowing that u are the biggest unity beggars!

You talk a lot but one thing is missing. You are totally unable to defer to facts and reality because you are 100% a creature of sentiment. In short a highly emotional and therefore unreasonable person.

The Yorubas are the ethnic group predicted to have the best chances of success if Nigeria break up. This is not difficult for an objective person to conclude considering the SW has, by far, the best mix of human and material resources plus geographical endowment.

The Yorubas are well-educated, liberal, religiously tolerant and culturally rich. All the qualities that promotes cosmopolitan and diverse society that keeps attracting the best human resources wherever it may be from.

Every facet of life that complements full nationhood is optimal in the SW already be it entertainment, leisure options, best socio-economic balance by far in Nigeria, strong political and democratic culture , diverse, innovative and driven populace always focused on optimal self-development.

Add to that already potent mix a thriving skilled labor sector, superb and highly competent diasporan class, democratic and relatively sophisticated electorate, biggest middle class in Nigeria and perhaps West Africa, world recognition and goodwill courtesy of the good achievements of Yorubas beyond the borders of Nigeria with many universally acclaimed ambassadors to secure continuous partnership with nations of the world, etc, etc, etc, etc.

All this meaning Yorubas can hit the ground running from day one and need nothing from others which is more than can be said for the middle belt, North, SE or SS. Not possible at all for the Yorubas to be unity beggars given their natural endowment.

The Yorubas are just a circumspect people who think critically always before they act unlike other emotional Nigerians always rushing to cut their nose to spite their face only to drag Yorubas into the hatefest they have gone to cultivate to then accuse Yorubas of "betrayal" when we refuse to take side over toxic animosity we did not cause or encourage.

When the time is right for the Yoruba, and not just right for the Igbos or anyone else, then we will leave if that is the best option for us with nothing and no one being able to stop us. So shout unity beggar till you lose your voice. Your problem.

Overall Yorubas always bide their time so they make fewer mistakes. History vindicate the efficacy of that approach unlike the rash Igbos who lurch from one disaster to the next predictably to be pariahs and laughing stock fourth class Nigerians today.

A laughable sure sign of what is to become of Biafra can be gleaned from the fact that Igbos, supposedly erudite and intelligent, are led by a lunatic with zero credibility locally or internationally today!! What indicates Biafra is doomed more than for P0rnstar Kanu to be the biggest voice of the Igbos today?

IPOB proscribed and BSS a non-starter yet Amotekun exists today supported by Nigerian legislation showing that results boil down to strategy, planning and diplomacy.

Ala Igbo, because of hateful politics, stagnant today and only able to impotently curse a government Igbos myopically refused to support whereas the SW is attracting a great deal of infrastructure and progress to the region to move further ahead as the premier region and economy of Nigeria.

I think any neutral observer would conclude that the ways of the Yorubas is most productive and sure-footed. Nothing at all to do with unity begging or any such nonsense. Just politically sophisticated, mature, wise and pragmatic behavior.

He is indeed too dense. Add also too emotional and too uninformed. Only these history JJCs call Yorubas "unity beggars" when it has always been crystal clear we wanted to go our way.

Yorubas, before others, sought to have a secession clause appended to the constitution so every Nigerian region could walk away legally and at will should they wish to do this in future. Igbos colluded with the North to truncate that effort.

Noteworthy that the lawless Igbos, when they wanted to secede, simply declared Biafra illegally and rashly only to remain calling the Yorubas "backstabbers" and "betrayers" for our refusal to back their treacherous and illegal act against our motherland Nigeria.

As a stunning and clear indication of what marks Yorubas as distinctly different to Igbos, ask yourself how many Yorubas call Igbos backstabbers or betrayers today because Nnamdi Azikiwe worked with the North to scuttle Awolowo's effort to include a secession clause in our constitution. Would that clause not be a godsent action today for anyone wishing to leave Nigeria like the garrulous and revisionists Igbos?

Read below the preening and deceitful Peacock called Nnamdi Azikiwe boasting over his myopic, self-destructive and pyrrhic victory of frustrating Awolowos's effort to include a secession clause in our constitution in 1954. Yet unreasonable, dishonest and revisionist Igbos dare shout "backstabber" today at Yorubas with no blame for Azikiwe who was their original saboteur. History can educate the ignorant if only they will defer to it.

In conclusion, who is fooling who in Nigeria if not Igbos who were doomed by and will continue, into the future, to be doomed by their own hateful, unreasonable, tribalistic and myopic nature?

https://www.thenewsnigeria.com.ng/2017/06/25/my-opposition-to-secession-zik/



My opposition to secession–Zik

By Nnamdi Azikiwe

When the 1954 constitution conference started, my good friend, Chief Obafemi Awolowo tabled a motion to the effect that in the new constitution, provision should be made that any state which feels like seceding should do so. I was opposed to it and said ‘no’ and said that once we have a federation, we are indivisible and perpetual.

That was when we began to use that expression – ‘The Indivisibility and perpetuity of the federation’ – and that to secede would amount to treason. And so, a debate ensued.

The Secretary of State then was Oliver Littleton, later Lord Chandos and he was very much interested and that was his first time in saying that the people of African descent were people actually debating at a high level.

So a full day was given to Chief Awolowo to make his points. He spoke brilliantly as a lawyer. He made his points why secession should be incorporated in the constitution. He cited the case of the Soviet Union which is a federation, and that secession is written there so that any state in the Soviet Union can secede at will. He also cited the case of Western Australia and eventually he finished his case and was applauded.

Lord Chandos said that on the face of the arguments before him it would be suicidal to incorporate secession in our constitution and that is why we have section 86 in our constitution that if any region or state should secede, then it will be an act of treason

We adjourned. The next day, I had to reply. I availed myself of the opportunity to, well, demolish the arguments of my friend and I cited the case of United States which based its constitution on that of the Swiss Confederation. That is Switzerland. I pointed out a case, I think, that of Texas versus White, where Mr. Salmon Chase, the Chief Justice laid down the principle – he was really an arbiter – that the union was intended to be perpetual and indivisible and that any attempt to divide the union by secession was treasonable.

The North (NPC) supported Action Group. The question was then: Should we have secession? The Colonial Office came to our rescue. You know, the usual principle of Britain – ‘divide and rule’ (laughs) but this time, it was in our favour. So, the colonial office backed us.


Lord Chandos said that on the face of the arguments before him it would be suicidal to incorporate secession in our constitution and that is why we have section 86 in our constitution that if any region or state should secede, then it will be an act of treason and that was what led to this war, because Col. Ojukwu seceded and so violated the constitution.

No mind them.Yorubas knew this before, they asked for seccesion clause to be included. But Mr zik strongly opposed it. My brother, God is not foolish you know. Karma is playing ludo on them. Had they not opposed that, we would have gone out separate ways long ago.

He is indeed too dense. Add also too emotional and too uninformed. Only these history JJCs call Yorubas "unity beggars" when it has always been crystal clear we wanted to go our way.

Yorubas, before others, sought to have a secession clause appended to the constitution so every Nigerian region could walk away legally and at will should they wish to do this in future. Igbos colluded with the North to truncate that effort.

Noteworthy that the lawless Igbos, when they wanted to secede, simply declared Biafra illegally and rashly only to remain calling the Yorubas "backstabbers" and "betrayers" for our refusal to back their treacherous and illegal act against our motherland Nigerian.

As a stunning and clear indication of what marks Yorubas as distinctly different to Igbos, ask yourself how many Yorubas call Igbos backstabbers or betrayers today because Nnamdi Azikiwe worked with the North to scuttle Awolowo's effort to include a secession clause in our constitution. Would that clause not be a godsent action today for anyone wishing to leave Nigeria like the garrulous and revisionists Igbos?

Read below the preening and deceitful Peacock called Nnamdi Azikiwe boasting over his myopic, self-destructive and pyrrhic victory of frustrating Awolowos's effort to include a secession clause in our constitution in 1954. Yet unreasonable, dishonest and revisionist Igbos dare shout "backstabber" today at Yorubas with no blame for Azikiwe who was their original saboteur. History can educate the ignorant if only they will defer to it.

In conclusion, who is fooling who in Nigeria if not Igbos who were doomed by and will continue, into the future, to be doomed by their own hateful, unreasonable, tribalistic and myopic nature?

I wonder what is really making you feel high in unity begging or think SW kicks the ground running in your dream.

Nigeria as a country is doomed and it is bound to fail and already failing. Nothing works here and will never work.
Any opportunity to downplay the shit hole is most welcome.

Meanwhile, 10 states with the lowest tax revenue generated within the period include Nasarawa (N4.4 billion), Ebonyi (N4.3 billion), Jigawa (N4.2 billion), Kebbi (N4.1 billion), Adamawa (N4.1 billion) and Anambra (N3.4 billion). Others are Borno (N2.8 billion), Taraba (N1.9 billion), Gombe (N1.7 billion) and Yobe (N1.4 billion)..


And you mumu will be here shouting how you are paying tax in Lagos.

How is Amotekun dead if not only in the fried and toxic minds of unreasonable and tribalistic elements who refuses to accept that a disease pandemic threatening humanity has managed to put things even more important than Amotekun on the back-burners for now?

See article below to note Amotekun had just secured the legislative backing of all SW States, at the end of February into beginning of March, to birth its legal existence when Covid-19 forced Nigeria and the SW in particular into pandemonium and lockdown before operational modalities could be concluded.

It is an indication to every gullible Yorubas that you lot are indeed enemies-within of the SW when you seek to mock Amotekun's non-operation as a failure of effort while deliberately feigning ignorance of a very tragic and disastrous disease pandemic development that means every normal and decent Nigerian can only focus on the survival of Nigerians and reduction of deaths and economic obliteration of our nation at this point in time.

You expect Amotekun to be operating and waxing strong at this time? Seriously? Are you 4 years old?

You people are worthless creatures of hate for not seeing what matters most here which is that Yorubas were united and resolute in insisting Amotekun is here to stay. Envy and hate will never allow you admit you wish your own people were as resolute and focused in going after what they want.

Yorubas will continue to make progress regardless of the ill wishes of haters like you.

Amotekun: South-west states pass bill amidst controversy
March 4, 2020 Adejumo kabir

Amotekun, a model of community policing started by South-West governors

On Tuesday, five South-west houses of assembly passed bills for the establishment of Amotekun, a security outfit conceived to address the security challenges in the region.

The states are Lagos, Osun, Ondo, Oyo and Ogun. Before now, the Ekiti assembly had in February passed the bill ahead of its counterparts.

The Oyo State House of Assembly passed the bill on Tuesday after presentation of the report of the house committee on security at the plenary.

The speaker, Debo Ogundoyin, disclosed that the assembly passed the bill to fulfill the fundamental responsibility government which is the protection of lives and properties.

Also, the bill was passed in Lagos assembly as a special unit of the Lagos State Neighbourhood Safety Corps (LSNSC). It sailed through the third reading of the amendment to the LSNSC Agency Law 2019.

In Ondo, the bill for a law to establish the State Security Network Agency and Amotekun Corps Bill was passed. Bamidele Oleyelogun, while addressing the press, said that it was a remarkable day for the people of the state.

The Osun State House of Assembly also passed the bill after third reading. The bill was unanimously passed by the lawmakers and the speaker, Timothy Owoeye thanked his colleagues for giving the bill an accelerated passage.

In Ogun, Amotekun Corps bill was passed barely 19 days after receiving it as part of its resolve to stem the tide of crimes, banditry and other violent acts.

How it started
Following the incessant killings and kidnappings in Nigeria, all South-west governors met to form the Western Nigeria Security Network (WNSN) on January 9.

The establishment came six months after all the governors held a regional security summit in Ibadan, Oyo State in June 2019 through Development Agenda for Western Nigeria Commission (DAWN).

Aba has lots of potentials but unfortunately, over the years, being run by mediocre leaders.

However, infrastructures are in decay as I write.

I think the only issue with Abia is the ecological issue (flooding) , Abia is far ahead of most states in Nigeria in terms of economy , education soft and hard infrastructure ) hard infrastructure as promoted by bello elrufai is actually nothing when there is retrogression in education. elrufai is not better than ikpeazu , i am not justifying ikpeazu's backwardness , i have lived in kaduna and Abia state , there is nothing new happening in kaduna. i will create a thread for this
