The Nigerian government is pursuing a strong tax policy that will be difficult to evade by people of different classes of labour.

Finance Minister, Kemi Adeosun


The Nigerian government has stated that no one would be left out in the campaign to enlarge the tax revenue.

She said some beggars were earning millions and that “proceeds from begging are taxable. You are supposed to pay taxes even if your means of income is begging”.

Minister of Finance, Mrs. Kemi Adeosun said this in Lagos at a lecture at PWC’s Business School, with the theme: ‘Voluntary Assets and Income Declaration Scheme (VAIDS) Interactive Session for Executives and Business Owners.’

She said to ascertain the income status of the companies/individuals and their lifestyle, investigators would rely on information derived from Bank Verification Number (BVN), records of property ownership, records of foreign exchange allocation, and records of company ownership from the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC), among others.

Yes o! When other nations are working on models to eradicate poverty or make their poverty-alleviation frameworks deliver more for them. These folks are trying to tax beggars.

Let's wait and see what the emirs and sultans of the north have to say about you wanting to reduce their #AlmajiriArmy's revenue sources! That Bill will never fly!!

Anyway, while they are at it, they should just ensure to extend their Tax-net to all the #politicalBeggars and #politicalProstitutes hiding under the government's skirts too!
