March 30, 2023Governor Chukwuma Soludo of Anambra State on Wednesday lamented that the state currently has a deficit in its Internally Generated Revenue .This comes about five days after Governor Soludo celebrated his one year in office.

He said, “If we have a 5 trillion naira estimate and collect 1%, that is 60 billion naira per year. If we collect 2%, that's 120 billion naira per year, or a minimum of ten billion naira per month on average. If we receive 5% of income, we will have 300 billion naira per year.”Soludo said, “As of Monday, we were dangling around 1 billion naira per month, which is extremely low. You can see how far we are doing in relation to the potentials that exist.

Yes I coming... A way of diversion, story! story!! Story!!!... osetigo

What's happening to the N20,000 compulsory fee collection from all trucks that offloads in Anambra?

Humble yourself, go to Peter Obi and learn. Stop lamenting….

Oga talk to your brothers convince them to bring there investments home.

Pls stop complaining it is too early. Don't fail to fulfill all your promises, especially making Anambra State to be like Dubai. You will be sacked out after ur 1st tenure if you don't fulfill your promises.

Pitobi invested nothing in Anambra...but hypocritical Obidients will not say it!

Ngige met IGR =3bn, Left =6bn (3yrs in office) Obi met IGR = 6bn, Left=7bn (8yrs in office) Obiano met IGR =7bn, left=15bn (8 years in office)

But they are boasting they have billionaires now. Their billionaires are irresponsible. Chaii

Our elder brother is crying..

But Peter obi was the messiah now 🤣😂

Tell all those Igbo industrialists in Lagos that their income taxes, PAYE, corporation taxes etc are needed I'm Anambra state, they should relocate their firms.

DStvNg stopped my viewing right on the 27th instead of 3rd April, 2023. All several efforts to make you correct your wrong doing have proved abortive.

A coward. You have not see anything yet. Have you Finish Romancing with Fulani Terrorist?

Trader been no de cry like this oooo

Power is in your hands now. Make more revenue and stop whining.

Nah u dey office now, oya make it happen

The same Anambra way Peter Obi performed wonders in. Eh reach ur turn, u come dey lament

Are we sure , this man is a real economist and a good planner ?

Professor of lamentations. Think out out of the box. Only election una sabi rig🥺

Complain go start now

I don't know the essence of this complain, why are you there as a governor if you can not find a way of generating adequate internal revenue.

Why not call Peter Obi for help

With all due respect I can stand firmly believe that ara Agbara Anambra state governor

What a f00lish he-goat we have as a governor in Anambra

Manage d one we generate properly, u think its my shouting Obi investment is worth next to nothing. Now do ur own let it worth to something

When you develop the people and state,you will in turn generate big revenues,poor people don't generate revenues oga..China is a perfect example,in the 70s,China generates poor revenues but presently,they generates trillions of $ in revenues,that's how it works oga..

fidelitybankplc Reverse my 15200. Its 3weeks now you promised to reverse in 72hrs

I thought you are a professor. Contact Peter Obi for assistance. It is not by being a professor. You cannot compare a businessman to someone who has never controlled any business. Businessmen in leadership positions will change the economy of any nation.

This one you're always complaining you better leave money behind when vacating office

They'll blame it on Peter Obi

Oga work the talk.

Are u Looking 4 rewarding landed properties in a serene, strategic, or commercial location with a good capital appreciation rate within d fastest-growing areas in Lagos state, Nigeria? Look no more, we've got you covered with our property listings at

So make I contribute the remaining half?

Lol guys brace up, more tax and agberoism loading

He wants to borrow again...this man self...hmmm before 4years he would have sink Anambra deep into high debt mess...

Na personal pocket the money dey enter,been ur search light..u will see.

Go and ask PeterObi the secret of hos success while he was in service in Anambra as Gov. Borrow sense from him.

But you are a Professor, and one time Governor of Nigeria's Central Bank. Expectations are high that you will perform better than Peter Gregory Obi performed. We are watching you.

Ifu go evi? Continue to dey play with naked high tension

Oga stop lamenting and work. We are watching if u do any how we vote u out wen d time comes.... LP anambra get set

But somebody used the same IGR to safe millions for the govt

The people have to see development and sincerity on the part of the government before they can start paying their taxes. But higher taxes is a function of the investment that are attracted to the State.

Let him sort himself out. Betrayer!

Let him go to court

Arrogant governor- pride comes before a fall

Block revenue lickages and reduce cost of govanance

Excellency sir, na this problem make dem vote you sir.. not to complain sir.. wedon sir

A Carpenter named Emeka was commanded to pack out and threatened to be killed by the Bale of Odan-Ilogbo community at Oko Afọ near Badagry cos he put up a PeterObi and NgLabour poster in front of this shop during the 2023 elections...

Lagos is making N 77.06 billion every month, while Anambra, the great and most developed Eastern state, can't make 2 billion per day. Eti Osa local government is making what 3 states in the East are making. Now I understand while they want to die in lagos.

Anambra is the London and lagos of South East and can't make half of her igr while Eti osa local in lagos is more than a whole state. Something is wrong in the East. Dead zone region. No wonder they want to occupy lagos. Obi really transformed Anambra, and it's working, haha 😄

Òga work harder.

I’m the cause.

And una want Govern Nigeria

Make it happen Professor

Peter Obi saved money by cutting down on government expenditures and waste. He then invested to generate revenue. As him for a blueprint and stop complaining.

CCSoludo u’re the professor figure it out

Sharap there. You must save

Learn from el-rufai or Seyi Makinde.

This is just the beginning of reality hitting him and it would humble him before quiet men like Peter Obi...

Stop wastage and reduce cost of governance. You think Peter Obi that did all that didn't know what he was doing. You condemned Peter Obi for saving money now let's see how you will do this.

Congratulations. Shey ur salary and benefits sha complete?

With all the markets in anambra state you should be basking in wealth, look inward and do something differently you have the expertise.

I can help with this sir

Is this not the same Anambra peter obi govern?

Excuses and complains don start.... This is what you get when you mingle and romance with APC ..sorry PDP😁😁😁

Olodo

Peter obi worked in the same Anambra, without this noise and incessant revenue increase,he left 70bn in our coffers,and was not owing salaries,built infrastructures,he who has planned to fail will always have an excuse to.

Criminal

Prof in the centre of the mud 🤣😂

Oga not make mouth, please do ur best to fix it ok thank you

Baba no give excuse. You say you can do it. That is why Anambra people voted for you

Blame Russian-ukrain war

How can you expect high IGR whereby you fail to create a good business environment

Results of seat at home on Monday

🥱

Thief

Prof, you where not elected to lament.

They said that zone is not in the poverty zone. So what r u saying?

It would have been easier to develop Lagos.

Why are you lamenting, nwa mgbafor? Mr know it all. Perform the magic.

Nwagbafor, you don start again? Your matter is still chilling inside deep freezer. You are our mistake but yadiba. Our Economist and Professor of a governor. Chai! Alu melu. Oga we did not elect you to hear excuses.

Dat was d same Anambra dat Peter Obi saved money from without tax suffocation on d people, yet left savings for his successors. All Soludo could do is to criticize him. He's a professor. Peter Obi has shown dat no Governor in Anambra has an EXCUSE 4 FAILURE

Always lamenting. Even the person that wrote the book of Lamentations no lament reach Soludo. If you can't do the job step aside sir. Small time now we will hear it is Peter Obi's fault.

He is just here to loot anambrarians

Suck the pple dry na...shey u wan gather money take go heaven?

There is a big difference between being a CBN Gov and being an elected Gov of a state. Can you pay for training and consultancy from Lagos state CCSoludo followlasg jidesanwoolu. To be candid, the Igbo don't pay tax. They are good in tax evasion even in Lagos.

Excuses. CCSoludo no hope for you if you plan a second term o. EndSARS

A trader led that state some years back without complaining, rather he saved enough money. We don't want to hear story ooo

How many Jo him don create... Na to tax people when you no give loan to establish, tueh

Soludo, it is too early to complain pls

He should tax his people more. Tax is the Nigerian government's industry.

Do ur governing wrk nw o! U have been talking anyhow since.

Lamentation!

Oga face your work and stop complaining!

Oga - start by plugging leakages and invest the borrowed funds into jump stating SME component of economy of the state Then the operators can pay tax

Ask Obi you were criticising the secret. It is not aa easy as you think.

Just do your 4 years and go. Simple.

Mr Gov., Rats are custodian of fried meat, what do you expect.

Swallow your pride and Go to His Excellency PeterObi to teach you how he did it.😒

He lacks ideas

I dislike people who complains a lot

Chai ooooo More tax loading🙆‍♂️🙆‍♂️🙆‍♂️🙆‍♂️

GRV your attention is needed in Anambra

Complain don start ooo. We don’t want to hear that a trader perform more than a professor ooooo

Land of developers and imaginary billionaires indeed!!! Tueh. Soludo keeps exposing repackaged fraud of Agulu …. Go and Verify 😂😂😂😂

Agbado one of Anambra state

UN, GOVUK POTUS . You know that come may 29th 2023, all things being equal. NigeriaGov will have a president that is a DRUG LORD. A VICE PRESIDENT that has been found wanting for being terrorists enabler. And Orji Uzo Kanu, an ex-convict. What a system.

😂🤣😂 just do it already...we know your plans

CCSoludo talks too much. Get to work!

You invest before you expect return

You wan kill Dem with tax? Na wah for dis governor o😭

Somebody said IGR is not a way to good development.

Its peter obi's fault 😄

More sit at home will come up soon. Dey play

Blame it on Obi then.

You Carry thugs and touts full everywhere.... they are eating enough and e go hard to collect the cup from the monkey hands. E go hard 🤔

Any child that vowed his mother will not sleep will also keep awake, do you want to bounce back economically, then release Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.

Mumu man you want increase another tax?

Blame game incoming 😂😂😂😂

How will there be increase in IGR when the governor is busy criticising Peter Obi instead of doing his job.

Mad man. Find another way to generate revenue, reduce cost of governance like Obi did and stop taxing business to death in Anambra.

Yorubas Are Progressive Political Rascals | Sahara ReportersAt an event in Awka marking one year in office of Governor Chukwuma Soludo of Anambra State, the leader of the Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu was reported to have described Yorubas as “political rascals”. Iwuanyanwu later apologized to Yoruba people. “I want to make it abundantly clear that at no time did I make the statement credited to me by blackmail circulating on social media that the Yoruba are political rascals as this was fraudulently manipulated,” said Iwuanyanwu. Na why I dey always talk say being a Yoruba na the best gift you can ever get as a Nigerian. We are very cultured and we no dey take nonsense. In the past Yoruba’s were real activists. We had the likes of MKO, Kudirat, Gani, Fela etc. What we see now is nothing but thuggery, tribalism and rascality. These charlatans feels it will remain like forever we have seen this over and over.
