Too bad, especially here in Lagos. Even women hawking on the streets of Lagos pay taxes. For the taxes we are paying here in Lagos, we provide our security, pay for water, pay almost everything. 114 Likes 1 Share |

And we keep on with the muteness and still wait to vote for the same system..Nigeria is in a vicious loop that surely is heading for self annihilation. I have never seen a country and its citizens like Nigeria and Nigerians before. My Father once told me that the government should be paying us (citizens) taxes as we provide every single basic amenities for ourselves. Static country with brain dead leaders. 83 Likes 6 Shares |

Indirectly Nigeria is a failed state. We pay tax, yet we still provide ourselves with the basic amenities the government is supposed to provide us. 17 Likes |

Matters relating to Nigeria always leaves me speechless. That said, even though you pay taxes in developed countries does not mean you don't pay for those services like light, water, etc. In my opinion, having your own borehole as we do in Nigeria is far cheaper than paying for water as done in developed countries. However, there are some places where government stilk provides water like some parts of abuja like Jabi, Lugbe, Maitama, Utako, Wuse, etc. Government also provides other amenities just that it is not enough and the services are nothing to write home about. E.g sale of ordinary train ticket. 3 Likes |

Despite the fact Nigerians provide almost all the basic amenities by themselves, yet they are been taxed left, right and centre. And all this to fund their wastefulness. Imagine #3.4 billion was budgeted for feeding the president and his vice. 7 Likes 1 Share |

Being a Nigerian forces one to provide his basic and other needs and still suffer to sponsor knowingly or unknowingly the expensive lifestyle of our tormentors and their families whom we call leaders instead of calling them their true name which is parasites. 8 Likes |
