The federal government should stop giving Lagos State any sort of monthly allocations unless as relief funds for say any sort of reasonable natural disasters..
The federal government has already helped Lagos to build up solid infastructure base more than any other state bar Abuja. This has given Lagos enough headstart in terms of monthly/yearly tax incomes bigger than that of most west African countries. I don't know why they will be dragging paltry allocations with the likes of Plautue, Osun or Ebony afterwards...

Many west African States are handling mega projects bigger than whatever Fashola or Sanwo Olu have done in Lagos State. Yet Lagos earns bigger revenue but will always be comparing herself with tiny Nigerian states. If the people of Lagos State are not willing to take actions to extricate themselves from the evil grip of the Tinubu odious dynasty, they should be forced to stew in their own juice! We can't be sharing our tiny oil money with some drug lord and his platoon of rampaging evil oligarchs..

Na d whole of iboland states no deserve any monthly allocations because na burn u IPOB terrorists go burn everything dem use d money from monthly allocations do. Shiorr.
Shey u see say iboland wey IPOB terrorists dey and North East wey Boko Haram terrorists dey na dem dey twin for IGR barreness. Na wetin una turn iboland to be dat; barren land. Shiorr


Federal Government should give more allocations to Lagos State sef because Lagos sabi how to turn money into wealth not those destructive locust states where bandits, IPOB terrorists and Boko Haram terrorists ti take over . Even God and bible support am to give a grateful , worthy and profitable state like Lagos State more allocations , Matthew 13:12

Tinubu boy,
If you go to other developing countries like China, Indonesia, Malaysia or Thailand, revenues earned from more affluent states/provinces are used to help poorer regions/provinces get on their feet. The Chinese government invested heavily in building up the infastructure of such provinces as Shanghai, Guangdong, shangdong, Zhejiang etc. Theses are mostly coastal provinces. Most physical tradings happen here but most of the products sold in these places are fabricated in the hinterland provinces. This way, the coastal provinces are helping to pay back for the "lopsided" investments in their infastructure by becoming the marketers of the products of the other provinces thereby helping to redistribute wealth. But in Nigeria it's different! Lagos drags everything with everyone after so many decades of federal government ceaseless investments! That's is pure Evil and must stop!

everything in lagos is about revenue generation, they don't really care about welfare.
Lastma and VIO just want to catch people to meet up their personal and organization profit, when what they should do more is about correction.
People approving houses also are interested in how much they can make from you, start a small fence, they have marked X but if you give them money, they don't care if the building specification meets standard.

Every day they keep peddling fake IGR yet hunger has almost finished all of them.

What they won't tell you is that PAYE i.e. pay as you earn is responsible for most of the so-called IGR. Now over 90% of all federal government agencies, ministries and parastertels are in Lagos and Abuja, with the remaining others in Kaduna and Rivers. That's basically why they account for most of the PAYE tax. Again, while all other regions have 7 & 6 states each, SE has just 5 meaning a massive loss PAYE tax that would have accrued to the region had it been they have 6 or 7 states.
