[s]We are not here to talk about rivers state
If you want to do that then create a thread for that
I no not know what you mean by PPP stuff I am sure you read that in a newspaper and have no clue what it means. Does that mean the government does not contribute or does not invest? That is nonsense. The FG is a major shareholder in LNG and LNG has been building roads and bridges in Rivers state and getting tax credits for that .Not in Lagos state
You said the refinery is "DEAD"
Are there no "DEAD" FG investments or projects in Lagos?
What happened to the Federal Secretariat, National Stadium, National theatre?
Even the roads out of Tin Can and Apapa
Is Onne Port dead
Is LNG dead?

Are those not FG investments


What is Adam power station?
You are contradicting yourself
Did Transcorp BUILD Afam power station? No. They bought it from the FG
Afam power station was a federal government investment that has been expanded over several phases with SPDC money as well as FG money and so it is a FG investment

Here you are saying I do not know what I am saying when you are TOTALLY clueless. SPDC operates a Joint venture with the NNPC for every 40 kobo spent by Shell NNPC spent 60 kobo

That was the arrangement in the 80s and 90s when Afam was commisioned

The FG is within its rights to sell its investments and has done so in Lagos State too . Dangote has benefitted from sale of Port assets so there is nothing new there


Once again we are not here to discuss rivers state[/s]


You brought Rivers into the matter. So I'm here to clear your ignorance. Dotty collective effort.

You are asking what investments FG got in Lagos? I can see you are a neophyte.
Go and look at Nigeria's budget since 1960 till date and tell me which state gets the highest investment by the FG.
Lagos state did not exist in 1960.
It is clear you are ignorant

The budget process did not work like that in the First republic

Lagos state is comprised of 5 historical divisions

Lagos( former FCT)
Ikeja
Ikorodu
Epe
Badagry

The latter 4 divisions were in the Western Region until 1967
Lagos the FCT i.e. Lagos Island , Ikoyi, Apapa ,Yaba were under a federal Minister just like Abuja one of whom was the father of President Yar'adua
Educate yourself and stop talking rubbish

Now YOU TELL US what investment got from the FG that it did not pay for

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!
While Lagos was popping back then, see your ancestors during the same period.......

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.

It’s one big mafia set-up! Any wonder Tinubu has been called the Capone!?

As you said, it’s as if the state is operating just for collection of revenue and making deals! Notwithstanding the constraints place on it by the useless 1999 constitution and Nigerian political-economy, you can’t see much on ground to justify all the billions of dollars equivalent the state has made from IGR! You can understand why some guard their ‘control’ of Lagos’ jealously and would curse you out if you give the slightest hint that governance in the state should reflect its homogeneous ethnic makeup and reflect the fact that the federal gov’ts is largely responsible for its relatively robust economy today!

Oga, Ondo and Imo state are also oil producing states and they are not part of SS.








DOTian:

We're saying the same thing. You can't collect money from the socalled SS/oil producing communities and then give them about 13 percent or so and be accusing them of being solvent and incapable of standing on their own! When in actual facts, the money you are sharing around is their money stolen by force, with just a little given to them.. They're the ones that are supposed to tell you off. Because it's their money and if they don't share with you, they will be Dubai and Doha and Kuwait with their resources..

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.


Rubbish!!!
Sorry.
But the topic is not about competition between regions.
Can't you people do anything without turning it to competition?

Since you are bereft of the intellectual competence to see beyond the beautifully crafted falsehood created by that deceitful buffoon I will help you.

1) Lagos was the federal capital till 1991 when it moved to Abuja. Between then and now all federal investment has been in Abuja not Lagos.

2) By 1999 at the return to democratic Govt Lagos was aptly described as an urban jungle. It was earning a partly #600m annually

3) The tax revolution of Tinubu brought it from #600m then to #600bn today annually

4) From 99 Till 2015, Lagos was in opposition to FG PDP so no capital investment was sighted there above other states.

Can you then say that FG investment made Lagos? Why was it an urban jungle 8yrs after being the capital and all of a sudden became Africa's 5th largest economy?


I will answer it for you. While Orji Uzor Kalu,Ibori,Nnamani and udenwa were busy eating up their state resources Tinubu was busy changing the civil service and tinkering with the tax nomenclature.
Most of the access roads in Lagos was built by him. He drew a 50yr master plan for Lagos which is being followed till date.

Let me ask you

WHAT MASTER PLAN DID KALU DRAW FOR ABIA OR IBORI FOR DELTA?

Yet the dullard is insinuating that Lagos development is a product of FG investment when OBJ went all out to retard Lagos progress.


Do you know that Lagos was already generating a power to light up Lagos for 24hrs? OBJ diverted it to the national grid to be shared among every state while Lagos paid for it.

Hate Tinubu all you want but know that if your then Governors had 10% of his vision, you won't all be tripping to Lagos to make meaningful living.


That guy you quoted is extremely dumb
Thumbs up.

How is the IGR amount make the state an urban jungle?
If it did, why is Lagos still one of the worst global cities continuously
Is that because Tinubu steals all the money instead of using it to keep Lagos clean and clear, children educated, roads tarred in the remote areas, healthcare facilities for everyone etc

There is no winning with a soul that is impervious to learning. The discussion is the significance of the FG in the outstanding development of Lagos compared to other Nigerian states.

The rant up there am sure isn't from a place of soundness

Emotions derails the thought processes and give an unstable impression of ones mental state
