This is small sef, reduce 20% on Manufacturing businesses and increase 30% on the mosques & Churches. If Na me eh......Na quarterly them dey go pay, even jobless Nigerian youth will pay 10k annually as tax for being unproductive Others can not pay tax for health care, road & security & you come say you be jobless despite enjoying thier tax money... NA LIE, You must pay for urself, family, kids & ur pets. Naija must be great , I will start with my home state first But d question here is, would Oyo state use the said money for that purpose? 1 Like

People here are just ranting about how churches and mosques should be tasked. Nobody is asking what mechanisms are in place to ensure the funds are well utilized and accounted for. Tomorrow, we will hear someone used the money to buy a house in London. 3 Likes |

ikorodureporta: This doesn't make sense one bit.. levies to aid security agencies indeed... what happened to the security vote governors receive monthly, and IGR's he collects? It's all scam, the real intentis not disclosed... this is simply a model in disguise to tax religious bodies, the church their primary target... all the listed institutions provide their own security so why levy them? Ajimobi should cover his head in shame to have come up with such ill idea. 3 Likes |

splmosixx: Forcing shrine to register with either CAC or some governmental entity and asking them to display their registration documents prominently, where everyone who patronize them can see it, will go a long way to reduce cases of ritual killings. Just announce a reward scheme with a juicy offer to anyone who reports an erring shrine and indicating where the shrine is located. Any offending shrine should be reduced to ashes and owner prosecuted and jailed. Before you know it, even yahoo boyz who are down on their luck or have been frustrated by some native doctor not only now have an venue to revenge, but they can make some kool cash while doing it. 3 Likes |

A good start but the levy is too small. They should aim for full taxation after the submission and verification of a fully audited account by approved reputable external auditors such as Earnst and Young. |

Good move. Just make sure its used for the right thing. Also include herbalists, Krishna and gurumaraji's shrine too. They are all religious institutions |

[quote author=fayruka post=73374203][/quote] Too many small small mosques lettered just less than 50 metres from each other, Islamically that is not advisable cause it creates division, only a single mosque is needed to serve a particular district, assuming they followed Islamic teachings they won't be bothered with levies cause their won't be a mosque in almost every house. Let them all pay, I even hope the federal government adopts this for mosque and churches Nationwide |

A progressive idea if you ask me. Good one from the gov. of oyo state for being in a progressive state of mind. Complete your intent by assuring them that no other loop hole for crooks to come and charge them again. Keep your records and customers should keep theirs. Your records and ways of storing them will be key in this endeavor. The great state of Oyo has taken a lead un-african(archaic) role in pushing Nigeria forward. God bless Oyo state and the governor. My new favorite leader in Nigeria as of now. 2 Likes |

Wisdomval67: Look at the reason for your argument, its not economically valid enough. I agree religious bodies should be made to: 1) Be accountable and therefore subjected to scrutiny 2) Be subjected to involvement in Corporate Social Responsibilities 3) Should pay taxes "as appropriate" However, this current government is too irresponsible to demand for and be trusted on the above. And its not responsible enough to want to tax or levy this organizations just because they're "rolling in money" 1 Like 1 Share |

Most reaction to this issue a parochial sincerely. This is levy not to be mentioned in a sane society. Security solely is the responsibility of the government.That is why they receive billion of naira every month as security vote. I think all of the reactions are not fair towards the church. Church in anyway has not caused poverty but government, the money church make are from voluntary gifts. Go to church today,you will see N10 offering. It is our government that we need to to rebuke from making things hard for us. Imagine biz that has not broken even you want to tax for security. God help us 3 Likes 1 Share |

mr1759:Someone like me....... I have argued for it in the past but the backlash I got from especially people in Ibadan here was heavy...... I had to beat a retreat knowing fully well what religion is in this part of our world.... I bet you,he will rescind this order because the way Moslems and Christians will vote against Adelabu ehn....nobody go tell am... But I still fault the idea of paying levies for security.... People pay taxes,don't they? This will be the first time in the world religious bodies will pay for their own security knowing fully well some hire their own private security in their respective churches,so what security are they been levied for? This Ajimobi have never been wise....@ allll I don't know whether the money Adelabu took from CBN isn't enough to run his campaign,now...they want to amass more like the FG doing their own on BRISIN.....these people are incredible. |
