I laugh... when Lagos start making those figures you mentioned, you will still say what you are saying, "Not enough" because, the wasteful spending won't stop, the bogus project won't stop, the siphoning won't stop. The population would still increase. Misplaced priorities would continue, political nonsense would still continue...
That been the case, when will it be enough...

Occupy the space to fix it , at least try let see you...

elasticlala:


Shouldn’t be more than 10m if you already have the land

For wetin ?
Wwtin this one dey talk bayi

mamaafrik:
May the life of ogún state governor at old age be exactly the way he manages the ogún infrastructure.

That man life no fit be like i tell you. You better face your life

hush15:


Let's not even go to the direction you goin cos even at that level too, government wasteful spending with what they claim to generate is appalling. We still talking internal generated revenue of Lagos State. Lagos generates enough revenue to sustain the state. Ofcourse, if governance is genuine and not wasteful, they would generate more cos people won't be hiding from paying tax. I believe with transparency, tax revenue would increase but some people can't be using state revenue to exalt their party and political sentiments and those generating it will be yearning for them to come for more....

You do less that one kilometer road, na billions. If you like, generate all the billions of heaven, the way they spend money uselessly by Nigerian government, it can never be enough

Do your duty as a citizen abeg. If you can't stop complaining. Any small thing you start complaining and comparing

hush15:


It's more than enough. The onus is government to stop being frivolous and bogus in their spending. Calling project of 10k, 10million and stealing 9mil 990k.

Lolzzzz! Dont tell me you are a graduate ooo

hush15:



Is that not what land use charge is for, and you will still pay tenement rate, build tax, planning tax, new town development tax... so I don't get your point.

Lagos makes enough to fund and grow the state, even with the low tax net. So the real question is they should stop playing politics and give service void of politics and bureaucracy that breeds corruption.

Lagos makes nothing enough to drive that population. Check what amount mega cities in the world generate.
For Lagos to pull what they are still doing dey shock me . MIT in US alone share almost same annual budget like Lagos. Do you know what that means, whats the population of the students there compared to Lagos. Check top states there too their budget like x30 to x50 of lagos despite having lesser population to lagos. Be realistic. Lagos needs nothing less that $30b annual budget to strive well . Nigeria needs nothing less than $400b ... Its money that runs these countries you love . Big bucks people will earn well

nairalanda1:


Qatar...1.8 million BPD for one million people.

Kuwait...2.5MILLION Bpd FOR 5 Million people

Chille...a diversifed economy, not like your tinubu oil based economy

Namibia...also diversified, and also has lots of poor people.

Botswana...basically like Qatar and Kuwait with 2 million people...replace diamonds and platinum with oil.



Oga, you can't win. .


And oga, if your message from my post is excusing APC....you have missed the point.

They don't understand what it takes to run a country with over 250m population. Nigeria not in top10 producing states in the world. Still price of fuel still fair .

nairalanda1:


Does your country have a population less than 50 million and produce 10 million barrels of crude per day?

We can't be like Saudi or those nations..

Manufactured goods and services.

People wey no dey ever make research and also be realistic. Them want better things but can't pay

Greenfusion:

Oga, saner climes include other oil producing nations like saudi, iran, uae, etc, how are things done there? This should be our model not places like UK without natural resources...... everything is not about tax, the crude with have what have they done with it that would warrant hyper tax on citizens?

Go pay your income tax like 30% monthly. If them no fix things ASAP una no go gree lailai.

OneCandleAway:


His plan is to keep being in the news to be relevant till 2031 election time when he hopes to be VP

Same as Obi too , talk for talking sake . Everything he must talk to make many if you think he get sense for head

UselessBuharist:
A minister who speaks recklessly. Were it not for corruption, someone like Wike would have no place near the corridors of power.

Trump presiding of US today should not too .. Oga rest

TTPAAR:

Factcheck0001:
your agulu packaged fraud was governor for good 8 years in tiny Anambra but made poverty worse, lecturers went on strike for 6 months, doctors went on strike for 13 months, no local government election, state was in disarray

Many Ibos cursed him n couldn't wait for him to finish his tenure but today same man is the Messiah that knows all d problem n solution of the whole Nigeria.

Is God not wonderful?

Racoon:
Guess Aso Rock is made of bamboo woods. They just kept on insulting the sensibility of the suffering citizens of this nation. Bunch of wicked souls

Oga rest , how una dey reason sometimes sef. Na only condemn una sabi do Everytime. Rest joor

Racoon:
"..You need to go around the country to see firsthand what the citizens you are serving are going through. Governing by remote control is not what Nigerians need.... "

The world bank recently reported recently, that 75% of Nigerians in the rural area now live in poverty as at 2025, and even more than previously recorded in the urban areas.

Peter Obi will sort everything in two weeks one time

givedemwotowoto:
The only thing a bad leader should do is apologize and resign, especially if they stole someone’s place.

This advice applies to all leaders worldwide

The promise. A Bollywood movie from the 80's

Very solid movie then , everywhere silent

HaneefahRN:

Like men who their wives feed don't abuse the wives. Where is Osinachi today and the he goat she was building with.
People are terrible and kindness is not defined by wealth or being wretched

There are always exceptions to everything. I don't really know about their matter though

lonelydora:
Tinubu is more interested in political conquest than good governance.

But then, I am not expecting anything decent from someone who came to power through the backdoor.

Una no get better rest since 2023 election. Body just dey pepper una. Sorry ooo

Factcheck0001:
Nobody is stopping u from protesting cos it is your right but don't block roads b don't destroy properties


And if u think a rethink of endsars propaganda will happen to paint the government bad then you will have yourself to blame

Very simple, make them no spoil properties

erniok:

Some men are werey. Money easily changes them.

When men has no money you know how they were being treated?

chiiraq802:

CyberHustle:
Victimised by fellow women.
Victimised by fellow women.

Exactly, very wicked to themselves . They too will do worse to their children's wives

A man you build with wont treat you this way. I say it to you . When be say na ready made una want so he will treat you like trash , and again to those crying mother inlaws , when their own to marry them.dey worse mother laws... People wey naturally wicked. You don't know them until the position for power you go fear.

helinues:


I don't need to stay in Anambra state to know how poor Peter Obi was when he was the state governor. Do you need a link to the thread created on this forum where mostly the indigenes of the state speak out about the horrible situation of Anambra state?

Show them make them know , na swear man dey collect but now Obi na Angel.
