Many states need to join this suit, Nigeria must unravel

Lol, many states will not want to join because the VAT they currently get from FG will likely be more than the VAT they can get from direct collection in their States due to low volume of productive activities.

Only States like Lagos (manufacturing, retail and services), Ogun (manufacturing), Anambra(manufacturing and retail), Oyo(manufacturing), Kano(Commerce), Delta(oil exploration), Akwa Ibom (Oil exploration) and Bayelsa (Oil exploration) will want to join cos they have significant VATable activities ongoing in their State.

Nairaland tribalistic person don show.
North is always their problems in every sphere of their lives, awa oyel crew.

You mean d cows you & everyone in your family av been eating since when u were born?
The cows u can neva do without in one day is now disturbing ur stomach? Yeye dey smell

Me nd my family do not touch even the plate used to carry any defiled, foul Fulani beef, talkless of eating it. Now, that aside. Even if people can't do without cow meat, is that now a prerogative for Fulani ppl not to pay tax? Do people buy the meat for free? Or is it not free southern grasses that you pple use to feed ur cattle?
Yet, Southerners pay taxes for the alcohol you all drink like water in secret but destroy in the open. It's common knowledge, pple like you can't think for urselves, so b4 u quote me next time, ask ur handlers to review ur words carefully so you don't spew trash in public.

I'm just laughing at the North. See how South is fighting a silent war without carrying a gun. Enough of south's taxes being distributed among Northern States.

Kudos to the Southern governors that spearheaded this. Since Buhari has refused to restructure, we would indirect restructure for him. Chikena

Stupid parasites. Other southern states should follow suit. They can't be taking taxes for beer, yet destroying the beer because it's "immoral". Beer money is also immoral. I doubt these fulanis even pay taxes for the cows that they keep using to disturb everybody.
fulanis don't pay a dime for cows

But they are the ones the vegetable was budgeting billions as Ruga to fund their private business that generate zero tax

Looool, your impoverished southern states will suffer from the fall out as much as the Northern States. Apart from Lagos, Rivers and Edo, which Southern state can survive without FG allocation.

I repeat, you southern ilks are illiterate and broken. NDDC can’t explain how it spent 6 trillion naira and it’s one imaginary North that is your problem.

Sales of cattle isn't significant in GDP. The same cattle they want to kill everybody for. Only crop production shows significantly in GDP yet the Fulani headers wouldn't allow production of crops that have positive impact in GDP as against their cattle that's not significant in GDP.

This is a good step towards restructuring of Nigeria. Some items in EXCLUSIVE LIST must give way for the states to look like the federating units in a federation. Those who
use Hisbah to break beer bottles in Sabon Gari Kano but enjoy the proceeds from VAT for beer sales in other sales will think twice. The only way for Nigeria to develop is to weaken the centre and encourage healthy competition among the states. Those that encourage terrorism in their states may begin to tax the ransome collected by their bandits who they forgive easily and reintegrate into their society. There is hope for Nigeria if this judgement on VAT survives up to the supreme court. Nigerian survival depends on her restructuring.
Are you still in TVC?

And they don't spend a dime, feeding the cows. They feed the cows with southern grasses and quite recently, people's farm crops. It's free money for them... They want everything for free.

Should the supreme court rule in their favour, the distribution of VAT revenue to other states will reduce

flour alone is more important than cows

You can find alternative meat to cow, we can even get our own breed of cows here.

But flour has no alternative, Fulani terrorists have skyrocketed the cost of flour because people can't go to farm again

Bakeries, small scale outlets selling donut, etc (business of common man) have collapsed

Economy is in shambles just because of insignificant cow

I believe you aren't referring to Igbo states like anambra, imo, abia, enugu, ebonyi

These are states that are industrial, majority of the clothing, footwear etc around nigeria market come from aba

Anambra has the bulk of drugs/medicine manufacturing companies, food companies outside Lagos/ogun

Check your food/drugs labels if it's not from them

Enugu, imo, ebonyi these are states involved in massive entertainment industry hotels, housing, business

In the west

Ogun I don't need to tell you is an extension of all the happening in Lagos

Ekiti and ondo industries are now leaving Lagos to go establish there

Only osun and Oyo would struggle but Lagos proximity can sheild them

I have not mentioned the resources these states have that one Nijeria won't allow them exploit

South south every state gallant already

In the north apart from Kano, kaduna all states there would perish without FG
