Nothing good will come up from this government if not why can't they concentrate on corruption and end it there and then? By so doing the mosque and church will end up having a good balance in their accounts without any superior engage in spending carelessly what does not belongs to him.

Yes they pay taxes on all their profit making ventures e.g if you own a school and collect school fees that is a business and should be taxed.
Be specific here please, where in this world do church owned schools pay taxes. What you are implying here is that some student should be taxed and the tax collected from them should be used to fund the education of other students elsewhere in public schools. If not for Bad Belle i don't see why you should stoop so low.

Don't you think it will be dumb to tax some student through their schools and the proceed used to fund other students education in public schools where admission isn't by merit? Winners Uni as far as i am concerned has nothing to hide. Let our crooked government come out and tell us the average cost that goes into each public school student per year and let's compare it to public school or Winners Uni in particular and you see why Private Schools are Justified.

My dear, all privately owned schools are taxed as long as they are not a charity organisation. A school tha makes money is taxed and the money is used to fix the roads and other things. As long as your business is for profit it is your civic duty to pay tax . You cannot start a bakery as a Church and not expect to pay taxes except you are giving that bread out for free to the homeless. By the way has Jesus said people have turned the house of God into a den of thieves! Remember how Jesus over-turned the tables when he saw them trading in the house of God. A Church as no business involving themselves in profit making ventures but if they chose to do so they have to pay their tax like every other person. Simple

Which planet do u live on? So any entity that doesn't receive money from govt should not pay tax? I should let my admin/finance know about this so they should stop deducting taxes from my salary. If u went to school at all then ur parents or whoever sponsored u has made a very bad investment...

Hogwash... any entity that engages in profit oriented ventures is liable to report such transactions. Taxation may follow if it is justified...

Don't mind him acting like an illitrate. All organisations except for non-profit Organistions are meant to pay taxes. If a Church has a business that makes profit and they do not pay their taxes then they are no better than thieves. They are the ones meant to teach the rest of us to do the right things!

Maybe u need to be informed that most private schools provide their own water, Electricity, and Road within their campuses or pay for it when they use the publicly available infrastructure.

Standing5: Do public school in Nigeria pay tax?

A public school is not a profit Organisation. That is why the school fees is usually so low, everything is subsidized and the aim of a public school is never to make profit which is the difference. It's the same way NGOs are not taxed but any business that makes profit is taxed that is why private schools are taxed as they make profit. By the way it dosen't matter if you provide your own water or use your own generator. Its the same way the average household provides their own water and electricity and yet your salary will still be taxed. Do they also provide all the roads that lead to the school?

Your response is still dumb as usual. why not tell us how much subsidy goes into each public uni student education on the average and lets see how it compares to the fee charged by private unis.

You're obviously a retard since you do not even know the difference between profit and non-proit. As for subsidy its simply if an OAU student pays 50K max and 1 in a Church owned university pays 200K plus, the differnce is obviously subsidized by the government minus the cost of some services which may not be provided by a public school. All in all we all know that no public school records a profit unlike the private ones no matter if its Church or pagan that owns it.

Oh boy, its now obvious that you didn't even go to school. I haven't come across anyone as slow as you in a long time o. Abeg that thing inside your skull is there for a reason pls try and use it once in a while ok. If not you can always get a good price for it since its obviously never been used...SMH

Don't you as an individual pay your utility bills? Does this exempt you in any country from still paying your tax? You're really slow o, maybe they need to lay hands on you.
