I am a tax payer I pay more than 20k every month..I even have TIN number but I have not received 1k atleast they should pay us something even if its 500 naira atleast it will be on record that this govt rewarded tax payers with a token during d covid period and d govt would be remembered for that

salford1:

I never said it was or wasn't special. You must have misread my post. My post was just addressing those that were quick to convert to naira. Economics does not work that way. Alot of Canadians would rather prefer to be working. You earn in dollars, you spend in dollars. That was the point of that post. Nothing to do with roads, apartments, food etc
That's one of my post below on this same topic.

Hmm

Canada's budget this year is $355 billion for 24 million people.

Nigeria's budget this year is $26 billion for 200 million people.

And you expect Nigeria to give palliative of N626000 naira per person or per family?

Nigeria is a mess, but we are not up to Canada's level. Vote for governments who would make us an industrial nation, then we can talk.

To all those people cursing Nigeria up-thread...yes, we have had corrupt governments. But there is no way our government can afford to give stimulus of N626,000 naira to everyone. Not on our budget,without taking even more mega loans.

Even giving 100million Nigerians N50000 each a month would involve spending the equivalent of our budget for the year in one month.($26 Billion)

Aidejay:
People should stop comparing Nigeria and Canada, Nigeria and Kenya, Nigeria and this Nigeria and that. Its just insulting, rather compare Nigeria and kuvuki land or any of the other fictitious countries.

helinues:
Nice one..

[s]But how are we sure this payment is for a Nigerian, except if he/she has dual citizenship[/s]

This world is not my home I'm just a passing through,
My treasures are laid up somewhere beyond the blue,
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door,
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore..

Oh lord you know I have no friend like you
If heaven's not my home then lord what will I do
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore

The consequence of the Canadians people actions is what they are actually reaping.
The problem with us here in Nigeria is that both the government and the people are problematic.
No miracle is happening in Canada.
People pay taxes as an when due. Government officials carried out their responsibility accordingly.
There are many reasons why their success stories is palatable.

Here in Nigeria, we are all cutting corners in every way.
Government officials are rogues.
The man on the street is a major rogues than the man in government.
Everything about us here is for cheating.
We are all to blame in this country.

You reap what you sow......Canada, US, UK.....these are countries where people pay their taxes not just cook u p some digits and say they pay taxes. How many Nigerians pay taxes and they want government to credit their accounts.

Brother, No dream of coming back to this H.E.L.L. My Germany Visa is almost ready before this CORONAVIRUS started.

Ordinary 5k they can't even share.

They only focus on their Northerners brother and sister...sending them 20k and even 30k depends.....

Northerners are cheating us very well in this Nig.

Some fools will keep on shouting One Nig....
