I will only commend PMB when he chooses to tax churches who are meant to be charities and Non-Profit Organizations but they sell books at Bookshop prices. They Establish private universities that are expensive to enroll in. They implore churchgoers to pay their 10% of their income to the church. They also collect offerings and building funds too. These ministries are making a whole lot of money and they are good in showing off in a way that makes atheists proud of their decisions.
Lets face it one of the best churches the world ever had is the Catholic church. These guys went all around the world, risked their health and lives for the gospel. Wherever they were they built schools, orphanages, hospitals, etc. That is charity. That is what Christianity is all about. Love to God and your fellow men.
Even if I am neither a catholic nor in favor of some of their doctrines, I am motivated to give to their church. For the record, I also like the way they transfered Mbaka who wanted to wield influence like the pentecostal pastors. My question on the recent Adeboye handover was why did he handover RCCG Nigeria to one of the church's FINANCIAL CONTROLLERS?

. Before u type rubbish, seek knowledge to clear ur ignorance. The books they publish, the audio nd video materials they sell in their bookshops are taxed. They also pay to get their schools nd other investments licensed. They pay tax on all the staff monthly nd also contribute to the pension scheme of the government. What the law does not tax are the offerings given, because those ones are recognized as gifts, do u personally pay tax on the gifts ppl give u? So, stop living in ignorance. If u want to knw why Adeboye handed over to the person he did, go nd read the FRC regulations.

Small Children just full Nairaland, nowadays. Some are saying that is like FFK is trying to switch side again are you guys this myopic, that FFK is constantly critizing Buhari does not mean that when Buhari does something right that he would not commend. That I constantly beat you up when you does wrong does not mean that I would not praise you when you do right.

Thank you for this. Someone will just wake up and type nonsense claiming that churches don't pay tax. Churches have contributed a lot to the development of this Nation. Adeboye personally visits prisons, give gifts to them and provide drugs for the sick ones. No pastor forced any of their members to give to the churches, so why are some people grumbling about how rich pastors are. Catholic church members are here criticizing penticostals pastors that they are too rich, Father Mabaka owns one of the biggest water factory in Enugu, He also produces yougort that sells almost everywhere in the southEast (Aqua Rapha), did he get the money for this business from the sun? If the pope stays in Nigeria I know it will be catholic members that will be protesting about the FRC rule. Lets call a spade a spade!

One thing I want Wailers to understand is that, all these people insulting Buhari are only doin so for their personal political gains.
Deep down in their minds, they know he means well. But being I the opposition they mustn't admit that.

Because Buhari doesn't need your singing and dancing that took GEJ guts away and made him sign this law and couldn't sack Abba Moro that killed the immigration job aapplicants but could sack Berth Nnaji, the CBN Governor or anyone that shows his cluelessness.

FYI, you wrong bout that.

It's true that church's are not task but whenever a church is engage in a form of venture that's profitable, there are taxed and heavily taxed for that matter. It's only the activities that goes on within the four walls of a church such as tithes, offerings, seed sowing and other voluntarily or spiritually motivated givings of some sort that are not taxed.

The Lagos state government collects tax from the Pastors for the sale of their intellectual properties and other stream of incomes.

In fact there is a religious unit in Lagos state internal revenue service. So tell other state governors and not PMB to tax Pastors. Its Personal Income Tax and only state government collects that.

Adeboye could have handed over to one of the Chief Ushers, will that satisfy you?

Do a proper check. Businesses owned by churches are often taxed. The only exemption are clergymen, which is the practice world over.

ijebuloaded:
Former Aviation Minister, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, has commended President Muhammadu Buhari for suspending the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria code, which set a 20-year limit for leaders of all non-profit organizations.
Fani-Kayode, who is a notorious critic of Buhari and the All Progressives Congress (APC), said the move was a good one.

He wrote on his Twitter account on Tuesday: “I commend @MBuhari for responding to the outrage of Christians by suspending law that set to limit Church leadership to 20 yrs. Good move.”

The federal government suspended the law on Monday, after Buhari sacked Jim Obazee as the Executive Secretary of the Council.

The law had led Pastor Enoch Adeboye to step down as the Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) in Nigeria.
