Anything to move this nation forward is welcomed.

I stand on my mandate while some peeps are still looking for their manhood wey no loss

This is Obviously a Trashy Advice and Can not Stand... They are not All Knowing and we can not afford to do Experimentations in Policues and Governance,Pls.

Senioreddy:
I really appreciate the fact that barely 48 hours of the inauguration of the economic advisory committee, they've come up with a tentative proposal to ensure growth in revenue generation.

However, I think in my own opinion, merging all these agencies/bodies into one is just too much for a single administrative structure to handle.

This is because, all these agencies are revenue drivers and they are all autonomous and as such merging them into one create a lot of confusion.

Also bearing in mind that this nation is so much endeared in corruption, a sole administrative body handling multiple revenue mobilizing agencies, the level of corruption will be mind blowing.

Lastly the red tapism/bottle necks will associated with all governmental agencies will further be multiplied.

These are just few of my concerns about the proposal. I stand to be corrected though.

Two different and disparate bodies…

The body was inaugurated yesterday was the National Economic Council, a constitutional “advisory” body headed by the VP and consisting of all of the state governors, commissioners in charge of finance, and a few others. It is a needless (in fact, USELESS) body IMHO, because there is already the National Council of States, and the economic philosophies of each of the states and of the federal government are NOT necessarily in alignment (eg, some states may be establishing state-owned companies while others may be privatizing) - which is actually what so-called “true federalism” entails. Accordingly, it’s just yet another extraneous jamboree for wastage if public funds.

On the other hand, the Policy Advisory Council referred to here is a private body set up by Tinubu to help him and the APC develop (initially a campaign manifesto, and subsequently) policies for his administration. It’s been working for SEVERAL MONTHS!

As long as Nigeria will move forward, I'm okay

Most of these ideas are generally in the right direction…

But Nigeria shouldn’t “regularize” so-called “illegal refineries”…
They are toxic-spewing and environmentally disastrous, and we don’t want to encourage even more.

The full consequences (health, economic, environmental, etc.) of these “refineries” will become evident in time.

Ola claims he is an original Igbo and staunch supporter of Obi.

Hahahaha

I am an original Igbo from Alaigbo. I was a staunch supporter of Peter Obi before, but I have now seen the light. God bless the Jagaban of Nigeria. God bless Bola Tinubu

Amotolongbo:
I don’t really think there is going to be any confusion created anyway as bringing them into a body makes it easier for proper monitoring and streamlining the revenue structure by automating it into the government purse directly.

You're absolutely right! Prof Charles Soludo on my mind.

Tinubu have no choice but to work, because any iota of kwaraption will threatening his mandate

Electorate:

Tinubu's company alpha beta collects revenue on behalf of the Lagos state government, now he is planning to merge national revenue agencies into one to be supervised by his company alpha beta for a certain percentage.

Tinubu is about to suck Nigeria's treasury dry while some Nigerians that can't think or use their brain continue to cheer him ignorantly. He go run una street una eye go clear when he finish...Pablo EscoBAT on the beat.

Termite bite you.

I hope the born to rule mentality of the North can now differentiate between their backwardness mentality and the progressive prowess of competent leadership

Southerners esp. Yorubas are brains. . Obasanjo did similar things. . creative minds and strategic.

Bro there is no job anywhere. Why do you think majority of our graduates are now yahoo boys or dumbass skit makers?
Na skit making them go sch go read?
Now yahoo, skit making, drug selling, ritual killings, oloshoism,local theft and the rest, are now the major source of income to the youths. Go TikTok make you see how majority of our graduates are disgracing themselves. Rubbishing themselves with the ones that didn't even smell four walls of education classroom.

If you gat no person who knows someone that has someone who knows someone, forget about it.

Try another line. It's too obvious and very unconvincing. Look at your name

Merge into one body to be supervised by Alpha Beta …

What a smart mandate thief

Since all the agencies are revenue drivers or serves the same purpose, why do you think is abnormal to merge them together to achieve the said purpose in order to cut down the cost of carry out the similar functions?

"4kms away from the port for decongestion and cargoes'. Houses around the ports will give way for cargoes'; Apapa and Lekki residents, brace up!

In the community where the Seaport is located, they have been buying 1 plot for 45M. Half plot 20 to 30M.

They are using a buyback scheme

I noticed that any policy been made by this administration some set of entities are here to congratulate it either the policy is favorable or not they don't care they're just there to pure praises Nawa ooo

ChybuzzDD:


Including deepening tax collection from the already impoverished masses to generate funds that'll eventually be stolen by Tiefnubu's corrupt co-workers and co-travellers?

Get lost. You akpu nitwits are not needed here. Go and look for your mumu mandate.

Grayoso:


Nigeria is broke . That is the sad reality. We are in a period of severe paucity of funds which means socialist type interventions simply are not options available to Nigeria. Buhari and his cabal have really crippled Nigeria.

I do agree with you that Nigerians need palliative but those will come soon once the Tinubu Government can first arrest how we are literally hemorrhaging billions into private hands, because of the omissions and commission of past governments, that can be deployed to make Nigeria much better.

There is no doubt all Nigerians must brace up and swallow bitter pills for the next 5 to 6 months so we can enter an era of growth, productivity and merit-driven greatness.

Flooding so-called "juicy" parastatals with nepotism (customs, Immigration, EFCC, FIRS etal) must stop to make way for merit-driven efficiency.

A lot to be done but Tinubu's approach, to me, is the correct one. The rot is too entrenched to the extent you may have to tear down the whole building rather and build a great new structure instead of trying to renovate sympathetically only to have a building , built poorly in the first place, collapsing on you at every stage.

How is Tinubus approach the correct one?

What was poorly built in the first place that needs to be torn down?

According to you..."There is no doubt all Nigerians must brace up and swallow bitter pills for the next 5 to 6 months so we can enter an era of growth, productivity and merit-driven greatness."

This was the same line in 2015. Why must nigerians always be swallowing bitter pills? What is the result of all the previous pills previously swallowed?

What about NSITF, it seems as though they don't exist.

Wawelexy:
This might eventually leads to a power tussles among these organisations just like that of the DSS Vs EFCC, LASTMA and Road Safety etc... Despite knowing each others's duties, one body will still intentionally carryout the duties of the other just because of personal gain and not because of patriotism, and this will always tell on the citizens.... So I think they should just allow them remain a separate body....

Is the DSS merged with EFCC? And likewise LASTMA and Road safety?

Funny people. Merge it and sell it to themselves

Penguin2:


Na only you get sense for this forum.

How dare you merge customs,NIMASA and FIRS?

Orisirisi economic advisers

There are other revenue generating agencies and all of them should be FORCED to operate effectively and efficiently.

I propose Nigerian Revenue & Monitoring Commission(NRMC) that could serve as the "general overseer " of all revenue generating agencies,where all FG revenues are monitored and consolidated using high level technology.

The NRMC should have investigation and prosecution powers.

Centralisation of revenue sources could be very fatal!

Legalising them would also imply prescribing minimum health and environmental standards applicable to all legal refineries.

They would have legal access to funding for environmental upgrades,etc.

They forgot power generation? They are wasting time.

Worst decision

Tinubu is about to cashout through his conduit pipe alpha beta same way he is using alpha beta to milk Lagos state through revenue collection yet slaves are praising him...no be juju be that?
