Nigerians should expect heavy taxation from this man

There is heavy taxation in UK & US buh these are plays Nigerians youths are JAPA-ing to the most, so why should taxation always be a big deal in Nigeria.

In as much as there is an enabling ground and govt of the are doling out suitable policies .... business/individual will make good turnover such that tax shouldnt be a problem.

There is nothing wrong with "private sector driven economy". The problem is with weak institutions.... weak regulators to be specific. You will just create a new problem with weak regulators!

Look at the DisCos for instance. The privatisation of the power sector has not improved it rather we have DisCos that increase tariff every 6 months with no improvement in supply and NERC is powerless !

The government & the people will be sold to the highest bidders.

Government machinery will now totally be used to build private interest.

AliBaba&The40Thieves....!

Another disaster loading, a worse one, except God shows mercy.....

Government does not work anywhere in the world,only capitalist can fix a nation and you can set that in Lagos right now
Tinubu is the best for Nigeria,Nigeria isn't that difficult to fix,fix exchange rate,increase minimum wage to 200k and hand over every every other thing to capitalist
Before you know it,Nigeria will turn to Dubai thou expensive but people will be able to afford it
Lagos is expensive but people can afford it

Teeroyzimma:
The only thing he can run successfully is a drug empire

That's how he turned Lagos to drug running State.. your wailing is senseless because it lack facts and beclouded by uncivilized hatred.

Take this to learn on what he meant,
Private sector driven economy is an economy that companies, SMEs and Proprietors actively engaged in economic activities for the purpose of creating wealth, employment and development in the country. It has less government intervention more than policy formulation and ensuring they adhere to it because there is tendency of cheating and unhealthy competition among the capitalists, this is the type of economy system mostly using by Western countries like US, UK, Germany, France, Japan etc.

socialmediaman:
His government will be full of corruption, freedom of speech bullying and intimidation, violence, insecurity

People will pay more taxes which will go down the drain as usual with little to show for it and a hype of his achievements media propaganda

We all know how this works

Gibberish and nonsense Baalablu bluhu bulaba

What did he mean by private sector driven economy? Make una ask am now oh. Nah so Buhari come tell us him dey bring change. We no ask am what kind of change.

See where we dey now

You are just being lazy, Private sector driven economy implies medium/Smes driven economy.

In most developed countries the major driven forces of the economies are majorly the SMES and large firms which are in the hands of private individuals like you & I.

The major setback we have is that the present administration is not doing enough to creat a thriven enabling ground SMEs or neither are there suitable policies to protect infant businesses, its a jungle out there, the operational cost of running a business in Nigeria is killing.

Heavy taxation without commensurate government services, utilities, facilities and infrastructure maintenance to justify the increased revenue from the people’s pockets.

Is that not how ThiefNuibu has wrecked Lagos since 1999 into debts, massive debts

oshozondii:
The Lagos State Government has borrowed over N126 billion domestically in the last quarter of 2021, the Debt Management Office (DMO) has said.

WHO SAYS 4 YEARS IN OFFICE IS NOT ENOUGH FOR MEANINGFUL ACHIEVEMENTS?

IT'S A FACT THAT 90% OF GOVERNORS IN NIGERIA SINCE 1999 WITH REVENUES AT THEIR DISPOSAL CANNOT BOAST OF A QUARTER OF THESE ACHIEVEMENTS EVEN WITHIN THEIR EIGHT YEARS IN OFFICE.

Privatization and running a private driven economy share similarity buh they are quiet different. don't get it tew mixed up

Before you know it,Nigeria will turn to Dubai thou expensive but people will be able to afford it
Lagos is expensive but people can afford it

Greed will not allow private sector raise minimum wage to 200k.... government must look deep into how to increase in export earnings...not from raw materials but from finished products....start with cutting off how much African countries spend on importing certain things...

Insecurity: Recruit 50 million youths into army, Tinubu urges FG

All Progressives Congress chieftain, Bola Tinubu, on Monday, urged the Federal Government to recruit at least 50 million youths into the Nigerian Army to boost Nigeria’s fight against terrorism, banditry and all forms of internal and external security threats confronting the nation.

Tinubu spoke at the 12th colloquium to celebrate his 69th birthday in Kano State.

He said, “We are under-policed and we are competing with armed robbers and bandits to recruit from the youths who are unemployed —33 per cent unemployed?”

“Recruit 50 million youths into the army,” he stated, adding that “what they will eat —cassava, corn, yam, will grow here.”

The APC chieftain, while reacting to recent statistics by the National Bureau of Statistics that over 23 million Nigerians are jobless, also urged the government to create jobs for youths in the agricultural value chains.

He said, “Don’t talk about illiteracy, anybody who can hold a gun, who can handle a gun, who can cock and shoot is technically competent to repair a tractor in the farm.”

Very true that.

Francis5:
Former Lagos provincial governor Bola Tinubu, affectionately nicknamed the Jagaban, is today seen as a shrewd if not “deeply Machiavellian” Svengali in Nigeria’s politics as well as the architect of a hugely successful anti-corruption platform. But 20 years ago he had to forfeit nearly half a million dollars to the U.S. Treasury Department after being named as an accomplice in a white heroin-trafficking and money-laundering ring that stretched from West Africa to the U.S. Midwest.

Although his case has been bandied about the Nigerian press for years, Tinubu’s involvement in a federal drug and racketeering investigation waged jointly by the DEA, FBI, and IRS has gone unreported elsewhere, even after his ascendance to Karl Rove-like status last month. A recent gauzy Financial Times profile of him, for instance, neglected to mention that two decades ago Tinubu was identified as a bagman for two Nigerian heroin movers who operated out of Chicago and Hammond, Indiana. They were Adegboyega Mueez Akande and Abiodun Agbele, Akande’s nephew, who was exposed to law enforcement after selling white heroin first to Lee Andrew Edwards, another dealer later jailed for trying to murder a federal agent, and then to an undercover cop.

In a 1993 court docket from the U.S. District Court in the Northern District of Illinois, which The Daily Beast obtained from Sahara Reporters, a Nigeria-focused news outlet, IRS Special Agent Kevin Moss said that Akande had run the white heroin ring in the late 1980s until 1990, when he handed off the U.S arm of the business to his nephew, who had arrived in 1988. Akande then returned to Nigeria but continued to oversee the operation from abroad with the help of others at home and in the United States, including his relatives. One of the individuals identified in his cartel by Moss was Tinubu, then a Chicago State University-educated accountant working as a treasurer for Mobil Oil Nigeria Ltd, a subsidiary of energy giant Mobil Oil, which was still a few years shy of its famous merger with Exxon in 1999.

In the biography section of his official website, Tinubu is described as having emigrated to the United States in 1975 “in search of the proverbial Golden Fleece with a heart brimming with unrelenting determination to achieve his visions.” This is certainly one way to describe his tenure stateside.

In 1989, Moss said in an affidavit, Tinubu established an individual money market account, into which he deposited $1,000 in traveler’s checks, and a negotiable order of withdrawal account (NOW) at First Heritage Bank in Country Club Hills, Illinois. The address Tinubu gave the bank was the same as the listed headquarters of Globe-Link International, the front company owned by Akande and his relatives.

“There’s a trend of various Nigerian politicians at the highest levels involved in dodgy business deals around the world, in property and cash.”

Bank employees told Moss that Akande had personally introduced them to Tinubu in December 1989 when who also opened a joint checking account with his wife, Oluremi Tinubu, who already kept a joint account with Akande’s wife at First Heritage. Five days after the NOW account was opened, $80,000 was wired into it from a bank in Houston maintained by one of Akande’s relatives. Tinubu would later use the NOW account to buy a $10,000 Certificate of Deposit for an $8,000 car loan, listing Akande as his cousin on the application.

At the time, Tinubu’s take home as a Mobil Oil Nigeria executive was a mere $2,400 a month and he claimed not to have any other revenue streams. Yet he still managed to deposit $661,000 into his individual money market account in 1990 and then another $1,216,500 a year later. He also opened more accounts with Citibank in its worldwide personal banking unit, transferring over half a million dollars from his First Heritage money market account into one of them in early 1991.

Mobil Oil Nigeria told Moss that Tinubu’s role at the company never involved transferring large sums of money between banks and that it didn’t keep deposits in any institutions in the south suburbs of Chicago, where First Heritage was based. Moreover, although Tinubu moved back to Nigeria in 1983, he neglected to file U.S. income tax returns after 1984 despite having sizable, interest-generating deposits in American banks. All of this was enough to persuade a magistrate judge of the Northern District to issue seizure warrants for Tinubu’s First Heritage and Citibank accounts. Collectively, more than $1.4 million belonging to the Nigerian was confiscated.

How is it a good thing, if ThiefNuibu steals the money as he does with Lagos revenue?

Realdeals:
1. The first governor to present a billion Naira state budget in Nigeria.

2. He phased out the shift system in Lagos schools in three months. He built functional classrooms to absorb those who only attend schools for three hours a day.

3. He opened up what is now known as the Lekki Corridor.

4. He built the biggest Housing estate by a state government at Abesan, along with five other estates.

5. He built LASU, LACOED, LASPOTECH and Technical schools to absorb the products of the free education policy.

6 He built General Hospitals and Health centers in all the five divisions of Lagos. He also upgraded General Hospital Ikeja to the Medical arm of LASU.

7. He created the Agric hub at Oko Oba. He also created similar hubs in Ikorodu, Epe and Badagry.

8. His government’s strict adherence to the party manifesto of Free Education, Free Health care, Rural integration and Housing for all, along with other UPN governors, created the largest pool of human resources in Nigeria.

9. He moved the Lagos State Government Secretariat from PWD to Alausa, which he built from scratch. He also lived in his personal house and drove his personal car throughout his tenure.

The worst is that Area boys will be the ones to co-ordinate it

Other than a Market driven economy, wouldnt this bring about inflation? Private markets would state their own costs and blame it on the Dollar , owning to the fact, the Dollar is killing the Nigerian market, Like more and more sky rocketed rates of products , would only bring about famine,etc.
A market based economy like china would bring boom. Where everyone would have access to infrastructure and means to import and export produce, there by having license to export to W.Africa, E.Africa and the general public.

There is something you do not know , Nigeria is hungry, Availability of Government Loans to sponsor businesses and then Taxes should be put in place and not moving to 100% Private what have you. Then he would use Alpha beta to ensure and engineer cuts to his own pocket. Someone like Dangote also would start paying Levies to AlphaBeta in Ijora, then a percentage would as usual, come to him. We know as e day go

Its well sha. Our Leaders need to start thinking, if you ask me.
