Rubbish, what is their basic and infra structural dividends, paying taxes. Rubbish

babaolofin:


I am repeating my response because of the Ibos. I challenge them to an intellectual debate.

So your startup company paid tax under Jonathan when oil sells between $118 & $140 per barrel and Jonathan did not save kobo, but rather he borrowed heavily & depleted the reserves OBJ left from $60 billion to about $30 billion. What a conspiracy, you, GEJ & your sister Okonjo Iweala deserve the best award in corruption & management.

How do tribal sentiments come into a debate of this nature? Can't we be more balanced?!

How many are surviving the bad economy when many are dead and gone....

Finance Minister Kemi Adeosun has revealed that more than 800,000 companies in Nigeria, including government contractors, have never paid any taxes.


In a statement, she also said that only 14 million Nigerians, out of an economically active base of 70 million, paid taxes.


Of the 14 million, more than 95% were salary earners in the formal sector, but only 241 people paid personal income taxes amounting to about $65,500 (£50,000) in 2016, Ms Adeosun said.


There was "systematic tax evasion at all levels", and the government planned to step up efforts to increase tax collection, she added.


This would help reduce government reliance on oil revenue, Ms Adeosun said.

Madame there is no need for taxes since the FG has looted every other thing.

85% of those defaulting firms are owned by developers, they evade tax like say 2moro no dey.

Developers? In their kingdom, tax payment is a taboo. They never contribute to the development of any place yet they call themselves developers, see them.

Is she complaining or wat.??
