In this era of low oil prices, it's the wisest decision to shore up our depleted profile, Nigeria is prolly the most undertaxed nation on earth, we restrict our revenue sources to oil neglecting the potential to gain even more from VAT, Most Africa countries have VAT>10% so it's not a big deal 2 Likes |

When Vat increases,other commodities in the market,like pepper,tomatoes, gala,beans,rice,etc will follow suits.It is only the ordinary Nigerians that will bear the brunt.politicians don't spend their salaries on commodities.From housing,to cars,medicals,wardrobes and food allawee are free.so they are never affected. 1 Like |

writetopoker: Well, the fact is.....oil prices are falling.....so we need money top fund them government projects....and the sharing you Nigerians love. As long as there is a glut in the oil production.....we will have low prices for oil....and as such.....not enough cash for the treasury. You Nigerians should wake up to the fact that the era of free oil kudi is over. Now....go and work for your money. There is no national cake. At least APC is realistic about that. |

Nigeria depends on crude exports for about 70 per cent of government revenue and more than 90 percent of foreign exchange. Wow! Nigeria is nothing without the Niger Delta, the goose that lay the golden egg. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Increasing VAT when the business environment is so hostile for manufacturing. It is evident that our leaders are only interested in raising public revenue which will be diverted to their private pulse without recourse to its negative implications on the living standard of the people. The macroeconomic environment in Nigeria is not favourable for businesses. What the government should do in the short run is to encourage enterpreurship through incentives and sound/friendly business environment. In that, businesses will thrivesn jobs will be created, the income of the people/companies will increase leading to a corresponding increase in personal income tax and business taxes. 2 Likes |

Am not buharis fan, but we the citizen need to pull our sleeves and pay the price in order to salvage our already comatosed economy. Former rate can apply any longer given the economic realities of today. No more free things....let be responsible. Meanwhile PMB is fast winning my admiration....from proposal to produce local ammunition, cleaning of ogoni land and now to payment of ex militants....

Jarus:Exactly there was no other choice in the light of dwindling revenue base, even GEJ Planned to increase it if he had won, neighbouring Ghana's VAT is 17.5%, the govt should be wise in selling it to the public though, the fuel subsidy regime should also go... Nigeria is effectively facing dire times and austerity measures are needed. If we can take all these tough measures now, we can effectively wean the Nigerian economy from depending solely on oil |
