Last night I received a call that a friend of mine was arrested for not paying board of internal revenue in Enugu state.
I asked myself, a young man owning a small shop doing laundry, trying to find his feet and create a pathway for himself was arrested and taken to the police station even after trying to settle his way out with the sum of #5,000 (NGN[/i]) of which the cash was collected from him and pocketed and was still taken to the station. Upon getting there, he tried to reason out with them that he settled his way but was thrown behind the counter and was later thrown in the call.
After that night, he had to place some calls and friends came to his aide to spend another #10,000(NGN).[i]
This leave me to ask this question
