Nigeria’s Minister of Finance, Zainab Ahmed, has said that owners of yachts and private jets in the country will begin payment of luxury items from 2019.
Addressing a press conference in Abuja on Monday, the minister said excise duties would be introduced in some areas while taxes would be reduced for small and medium scale enterprises.

“We are exploring ways to increase taxes as well as reduce taxes in some sectors. For Small and Medium Enterprises, government would reduce taxes. But there are some special taxes that we will be looking at imposing,” she said.

“For example, luxury taxes. If you have a private jet, we will be taxing you specially for that. If you have a yacht, we will be charging you for that and also in terms of excise duties, there are also some new areas where excise duties will be introduced.

“We haven’t got all the approvals but one of the major areas might be that of carbonated drinks produced in the country,” the minister said
According to Ahmed, the Whistleblower Unit has recovered over N8.5 billion and $465 million among others from the 1,051 investigations conducted from tips received.

“Based on verification outcome by the Presidential Initiative on Continuous Audit (PICA), we have also paid over 2,000 former workers of our defunct national carrier – Nigeria Airways Limited,” she said.
Patience Oniha, director general of the Debt Management Office; Mary Uduk, acting director general of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Babatunde Fowler, executive chairman of the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) were also present at the briefing to give an account of the activities of their agencies.

One of the reasons why some of our big pastors hate Buhari, they pay all taxes when they fly their private jets abroad but pay nothing at home and will be condemning government from their alters for not being able to provide basic amenities.

What about Tinubu?

Oga, BuhariAPC is just common enemy of progressive minded Nigerians. The Pastors don't own and maintain the Jets with their pockets money, the Churches do that for them.
For now Churches are Tax free. Same with their non business properties.
