Lol, face the consequences but yet you were shouting half bread is better than none.

Hypocrisy at it's peak.

If the excuse is half bread is better than nothing, then the government shouldn't complain when some people don't pay tax.

You can't collect from everyone without giving back to everyone in time of need

Mind you not all is paying tax in Nigeria, you can't compare taxes pay here with your own.. Reason to that

How do they pay it please? The only Nigerians that pays taxes are Government workers because everything is removed before their salaries are given! Aside them, please tell me how other Nigerians pays directly and indirectly
Most private Companies in Lagos do same.

Majority of the men in Igbede are traders at Alaba Intnl and have so many leviea and taxes meted out to them.

Levies imposed by the state and local government on food vendors, market sellers, bike riders etc. Indirectly is through sales tax, consumption tax, VAT etc. Aren't you paying VAT for your calls or is MTN not displaying each time you make a call.?

Are government no even shameless to share these disgraceful items angry
Meanwhile, we're all at fault. Let's ask ourselves, how much tax do we pay monthly to Government compare to abroad. It is the responsibility of the government to take good care of her citizen and paying taxes to Government is also constitutional even in our doctrines. So we're all at fault
What of me that have been paying my tax, more than 13% of my salary!!! For over 6years I have been working with the government, what have I gotten?

Are u his tax adviser? All the tax being paid since 1960 what has the govt done with it other than loot them? Shut up if u have nothing to say. Two loaves of bread and u are here to talk trash.. undecided
This mentality is what have render you guys miserable over the years. How many country do you see their citizens complaining of not being provided for during this period of lock down or do you think that even the almight USA provide for all its citizens or you think the small Ivory coast, Ghana, Benin Ecuador, etc provide for all their citizens, hence the reason why they are not on social media complaining like you? Hell no.
You are poor here because you are always waiting for government to come to your help while citizens of other countries are planning to see how they can help their government. Change your thinking pattern.

I am not saying everyone is paying tax, but rather you tax the people but don't want to return back to people. That's criminal.

Someone gave an example of how the Philippines government gave foodstuffs despite being a foreigner.

Why? Does he pay tax as a visitor? Does everyone in Philippines pay tax? No, yet the government provides for everyone.

That's a government that works not this piece of shit criminal govt

I beg to differ,its an insult to say citizens of this country are waiting for government to help them.Help them how? Is it electricity,pipe borne water,social welfare ,health packages,good school ,security? which one has the government provided adequately? Please appreciate the tenacity and survival prowess of Nigerians for once.If there was no lockdown ,nobody gives a rats ass if government exists or not.
