gabinogem: Actually it is you that is foolish. If you tax the rich and poor according to the laws you have also taxed the religious centers. Think about it. Christ does not need your money and he wants his servants (Pastors) very comfortable but not sinfully rich. If people paid correct taxes they wont be donating so high to church. |

Adminisher:well I believe u are one or aspiring to be one of the servants(pastors), hence u have to support where ur heart lies. U & I know very well how religious people do whatever it takes to please their religious Gods even to the extent of killing themselves just to prove a point. People already pay indirect taxes(including the poor), now tell me what the government want to use the income tax of the poor for? Remember, we are currently providing basic amenities for ourselves. If the government tax these religious bodies, it will certainly help greatly to improve the economy because currently religious centers are the only companies we have in Nigeria that are working effectively. 2 Likes |

sonOfLucifer:when ever nigerians write about miracles and other things that happen in the church we make it look like if nigerians are worst hit. Tune in to TBN & see how Americans give & seek for miracles “stupidily.“ Nigerians are the most conservative woshipers all over the world. Weather christinans or muslems. Check out the level os fanaticsm in other Muslems contries you will know that Nigerians are not like anyother. Talking about taxing the religious bodies. When u tax a church or a mosque, you are retaxing everybody who have paid before. Because it is still the same people who paid their income tax or whatever tax that contributed the money the church or the mosque has. Religious bodies are charitable organisations & they dont pay tax in other countries. But if a church or a mosque owns a school. The school pays tax or any levy government asks for. Pastors, imams & alfas are individual they pay their taxes. Their pesonal and overhead taxes. As for Lagos state and their NEW law. This is a thank you gift from APC to the poor people who stood by them during the election. The thing that is worst than DEATH in LIFE is insensitivity. When a government comes for the throath of the governed with a sword. It is so hurting. Especially when you had optiones and choose the one that kills you now. Jimmy Agbaje would not have done this. Because as a business man, he knows how had it is to make money. But all these civil servants and politicians, they know nothing. Because salary makes a man levy. Look at the hell el rufai is creating for Kaduna people... Well lagosians asked for it... And here they have it... AMBODE TILL 2023 |

Aspireahead: My take is that it is foolish for Ayade to seek to exempt citizens from paying tax. The fundamental premise is that taxes are civic responsibilities of EVERY citizen. Each person pays a fraction of his/her established income |

anonimi: 1. Ignorance is written all over your submission. 2. The government should not be interested in "telling" you how much how the artistes, bloggers, politicians who announce their: N20 million watch, N500 million mansion, N80 million car" pay. They already have a means of collecting the LEGAL taxes from these people. 3. There's a difference between Linda Ikeji as a brand and as a person. Lagos State Internal Revenue are not stupid. Linde Ikeji's company will be taxed differently from her as a person. Linda Ikeji's Financial advisers would have advised her to pay herself a small salary and let the company should all her responsibilites. That she's done the smart thing unfortunately there's nothing anybody can do, provided she's within the ambit of the law 1 Like |

gabinogem: 2019 is not far away.Ambode is on his way out. Whoever advised him on this has helped him to lose coming election. By the way why did APC presented such as a governor ( state chief administrator) candidate? This move will cost votes big time. |

ademoladeji: Let me address this in two folds 1. Staffs in churches in Lagos pay (PAYE) taxes, even the pastors on the pay roll 2. Churches as an entity don't yet. It's difficult and knotty issue. Compel churches to pay taxes and these churches passes the tax burden to their congregation I think Churches should pay taxes jare! maybe it will expose their undertable dealings and force them to be truly accountable. Besides it offers avenues to trace illicit funds that get to the church under the garb of "Tithes", "Seeds" and "Donations" 1 Like |

maduck: what you've stated here sparks counterintelligence. Illegal monies are not taxes and will be scrapped. Legal fees paid by NURTW are valid taxes and payables.. We are talking about vaild and legal means of income |

linearity: 1. Wrong premise and wrong assumption. simple scale economics tells you that the share numbers of these people will make mince-meat of the effort 2. A typical mama Ego will first be registered and profiled. It will be established(on an average)from what she sells how much is the minimum she ought to make (even if she makes less). From this her tax bracket will be determined and the requisite taxes calculated. 3. Referring to paying taxes as another means of extortion is tantamount to being uninformed and crudely ignorant. Look at it like this, in a Face-me-I-face you house, where about 20 rooms share one meter, do they exempt someone from paying electricity bills because he's the poorest? Paying tax is the responsibility of every citizen |

All the peanuts they are trying to get from a thousand poor people can be paid by taxing one rich person who by the way will not feel the effect as much. What is wrong with this Ambode? Dumb and dumber part 2. Why can't he get sense? 1 Like |

gabinogem: Oga, if only you research more and think deeper.... Do you know the fad in lagos and some top cities right now? Well let me help you,they now employ foreigners such as Filipinos and they are paid in dollars...they are taxable and also...visit major private constructions across lagos and you will see sierra leoneans,togolese and beninoise...not nigerian...those are taxable as well....or they should be left alone to siphon our money to their countries? |
