Wailers are liable to die young!

Even if the man has only primary 6 result, his excellent performance at the Lagos State revenue office precedes him. All you senseless wailers can kindly do us a favour and Gerrarra here!

The last thing I will become is a wailer, I post that write up here because I need clarification. Thank you.

If you buy properties with the names of your relatives and they do not pay the taxes, your properties are revoked and sold back to the public, it's your loss not theirs. By the way If you decide to buy Hummer SUV for your son who's still a student, who will be fueling the car as well as servicing and repairing it? Its you isn't it?

Because the properties are spread out across a number of names, a luxury tax will not accrue to the single rich man. Do you understand?

Actually you could qualify for tax deductions if you rent out the other properties (homes) for instance, but I think you pay the full tax amount if you live in them or keep them vacant, so it's advisable you keep these properties in your name to enjoy such benefits. I don't know the rate at which the taxes on luxury properties (high priced properties) increase based on multiple ownership so I may not comment further on that, but the basic thing is, if you own multiple properties, you pay multiple taxes whether you spread out the names or not, but it even benefits you to keep them in your name if you want deductions especially if they're rented apartments.

With this, I can assure you that Baba has tactically pave way for a northerner to emarge as the next customs boss. He has to slide this one in between to not let it look too obvious. Because the customs boss is likely the next appointment in line
You may be right oh!. I have been watching the pattern. Make a South Westerner the Chief of Defence Staff and then appoint Northerners as National Security Adviser and Chief of Army Staff. Appoint Kachikwu as GMD NNPC and then Northerner as Executive Vice Chairman of Nigeria Communications Commission (NCC). Northerners are the Accountant-General of the Federation (AGF) and Director-General Budget office (Aliyu Yahaya Gusau was just appointed today). I expect that a way would be found to “manage” the appointment of a Petroleum Minister (afterall GMD NNPC is already from the South), or just run the Ministry through an Adviser/The Presidency. I don’t need to wait for the full cabinet list to know where the Minister of the FCT (Abuja) and a few strategic ones will come from. It will be a massive change if a Southerner or minority Northerner gets it! Actually, before you insult me, I do not condemn any of these appointments at all because they are not a surprise to me at all! By the way, I am not a wailing wailer but a watching winner!!

FIRS needs serious Reforms and restructuring! They have been fraudulently shortchanging this country for quite some time. Tax reforms are needed in many sectors of the economy as well. People have to pay taxes for this country to generate better revenue, especially these high lifestyle rich people who buy properties here and there which they never use. Start paying property taxes.
I support your view. Corruption of highest order is in FIRS. They are just sucking Nigeria money like orange.

Buhari once said it, that he was going to put in place a internal revenue generation board akin to that of Lagos State, at federal level. I think that's the intention of the move; baba, keep working while they keep praising gej. All we need is work kiss

The problem is that there are tax laws but implementation is the problem

[quote author=Horlawoomey post=37160402]I got this from Farooq Kperogi's Facebook wall. Its about Tunde Fowler.

After months of delays, ostensibly to properly vet his appointees, President Buhari just appointed somebody that may turn out to be a total fraud. He appointed a certain "Dr." William Babatunde Fowler as the Executive Chairman of the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS). In a news release signed by Femi Adesina, this red flag appears on the man's qualifications:"Fowler, who holds an Honorary Doctorate Degree [sic] of the Irish International University, is a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Taxation of Nigeria and the Business Management Association of the United Kingdom." Well, Irish International University is a fraudulent, non-existent university ( seehttp://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/education/7175730.stm). Second, the Committee of Vice Chancellors in Nigeria has ruled that people with even legitimate honorary doctorates cannot prefix "Dr." to their names, as is the practice globally ( seehttp://www.farooqkperogi.com/.../finally-some-good-news...). I fear that if this Fowler's other qualifications are looked into, a big scandal may break out. His bachelor's degree, for instance, is said to be from the "University of Wisconsin" and his master's degree from "California State University." The trouble is, University of Wisconsin and California State University are multiple-campusuniversities; you can't just say you attended the University of Wisconsin without mentioning the location. The University of Wisconsin has 26 campuses, and California State

Before even someone is appointed chairman, he should be interviewed to define his taxing policies and implementation strategies
