If I were Lagosians, I won't pay a dime. No property is lagos is valued at 10 million. There are houses in lagos worth 400 millon and they pay over 300k already per year. Peter Obi tried such rubbish in Anambra and we killed it by not paying. When you come to a whole street of 100 houses and 99 refused to pay, will you arrest 99 landlords or seal their houses? And you do this the whole state? That means you will loose the next election woefully. 7 Likes |

ChidiAlaigbo: What has the govt done with all the trillions they have been collecting. A street has no tarred road, no waste removal, blocked drainage , no water, no electricity, no security. After paying the LUC for 5 years yet no govt presence in your locality. Isn't it absurd to continue paying. As far as I know the money should be used for development. And not when govt do only a small major road we begin to hail them. 3 Likes |

Op after the 40% deduction. For example a property valued at N10Million after the deduction you have N6Million to be charged LUC on. What is the percentage rate used to arrive at N15,000.00? Op pease stop spreadiing lies. This Ambode government is insensitive, that is how he introduced the wicked water bill until which is been challenged in a court of law. Same way he increased land survey rate, for places like Ikorodu, Badagry, Epe and other agrarian Communities from a 180k to 350k. Lagos Mainland like Surulere from 180k to 600k and now survey for Lagos Island and Lekki, Victoria Island, Ikoyi are now N1Million and N1.5Million respectively. Whenever he introduced the wicked bills and laws he will ensure the media are salient about it, as they are paid to do so you can only read such from media not popular in the southwest. Now that Lagosians are complaining because have been served the wicked LUC bill, you are here again trying to misinterprete, misinform and decisive people to accept the wicked bill. |

davodyguy: Those places you shamelessly compared to Lagos state have free education for kids, 24/7 electricity, free health care, wonderful roads, jobs for most people. So your comparison makes no sense. I live and own property in UK and I own 2 properties in Lagos. I am happy to pay my council and property tax in UK because I am enjoying what I pay for everyday. What are you enjoying in Lagos that warrant such payment? 9 Likes |

@DAVODGUY PLEASE don't ever make reference to the UK Tax and provide incomplete information to Nigerians. IT is best to talk solely on Nigeria without reference. Below is the link to social benefits of paying UK tax to UK citizens. www.gov.uk/browse/benefits Can you in the same light give the link to social benefits of Tax for Nigerian citizens. Quote Remember, Tax is a civic responsibility. Go to UK, ask all the players in the EPL how much they pay as taxes. It's up to 30% of what they earn weekly, hence the UK is progressing cos of successful tax administration. Conclusion, LUC had been with us since 2001, but since we don't pay, we have no idea that it exist. The Government of BAT and Fashola didn't do much to enforce payment and since 2001 to amendment or increment and less than 300,000 properties pay LUC in Lagos State out of over 2,000,000 houses that we have in the Lagos State. LUC should not be confused as income tax, VAT, Capital gains Tax, Capital Transfer Tax, consumption tax etc. LUC is tax payable by a Landlord. The person who has money and decided to buy property with his money. The government will tax you and use the money to provide houses for others. Houses are not only for the rich. The poor too deserves to own properties. I am privileged to have traveled to some countries and did enquire how they do it. In South Africa, UAE, England, USA, Canada, Japan, Australia, Ethiopia, Ghana etc all these are applicable. If you don't own a property, you're not to pay Land Use Charge. It is an ownership tax. Tell your landlord I said so and it is backed by Law. All tenants should relax, as this is not for you. As a private citizen of Nigeria, residing in Lagos, I pay the following 1. Income tax monthly to State government 2. VAT to Federal Government 3. Consumption tax to state 4. LUC to state government cos I own properties These are applicable in most countries that I've visited. There are other taxes that has nothing to do with real Estate eg Consumption tax VAT Income tax Stamp duty Capital transfer tax etc I created this thread to educate us on the history of LUC, in order to educate people and would be creating other parts later this month to address 1. The 2018 LUC law 2. Collection 3. Proposed Valuation 4.reliefs provided 5. How the money would be spent. Feel free to share, just acknowledge the source and not plagiarize. I am opened to answering any Question at all, pertaining to the LUC. The various LASG officials are interested in how Lagosians feels about this subject, hence they paybvery serious attention to Nairaland, based on my discourse with them yesterday The moderators (Seun Mynd44) should do the needful by posting this important thread for all to see.

Everything you said was OK until you said BAT and Fashola didn't do much on collection of LUC. You lied there. In fact it was Fashola that made it popular. It was Fashola that made people pay willingly because of the way he deployed the resources. 2 Likes |

You don't provide jobs or increase salary but you are increasing tax?!?!? Remember good governance, 24/7 electricity, healthcare, security, atmosphere for proper employment and good infrastructure is the govt sole responsibility go to Another problem is other places like Ogbomosho will see this and want to start collecting tax and will tell the peeps in the state "paying tax is your civic responsibility go to UK and see" Provide just electricity but no O. 2018!

davodyguy:You have written an over optimistic thesis on tax especially with Lagos in perspective and to a large extent, I agree with you except that I am angry with us as a nation. Why? 1. Our tax administration record is zero! No one can feel what our collective money (not just tax) is used for. 2. Embezzlement and Corruption by Tax administrators (Governors, LG Chairmen etc). It is appalling It seems tax sensitization and enforcement is just for giving thoses thieves more of our money to enrich themselves. I came out of the streets of Italy one Night (about 4 am) and I saw city cleaning at its peak. Refuse disposal, street sweeping, washing...I was impressed. No wonder, everywhere is clean. Unless we settle these two issues. It is a sad exploitative endevour 1 Like |
