Governor Wike Exposes Letter Written By FIRS To Amend The Constitution by BarryBoy(m): 4:32pm On Sep 08, 2021
RIVERS VAT JUDGEMENT

Governor Wike exposes letter written by FIRS to amend the constitution when they discovered they were about to lose in court.

Explains the case was instituted in 2020 but in July 2021 the Chairman of FIRS tried to ammend the Constitution through the back door to transfer VAT collection to the exclusive legislative.

"In June N15.1bn was collected as taxes in Rivers State but 4.7bn was given to Rivers State, 46.4bn was collected from Lagos State and but Lagos was given N9.3bn.

Kano generated 2.8bn and got 2.8bn.

Have you seen the injustice in this Country ? I would not be Governor forever, it's not about me but about the system.

Let the right thing be done".

~ Gov. Nyesom Wike.

It may have deliberately been done by the initial Constitution Writers so that the States could have their own individual source of income

The past VAT payments should also be recovered and refunded by the federal Government

The South is actually it's own enemy.

Look at the states not passing the bill to stop open grazing. Look at South East trying to pull down South West.. look at south east, trying to sub Niger-deltan.

If y'all support each other, you'll be a much stronger force, but you all won't.

The leaches must be stopped in their tracks, and the time is now.

I'd advise the Southern Governors and Legislators to build on and take advantage of this momentum to achieve this aim.

Good to know. I love the decision taken by Wike regarding this VAT matter. I see Northern politicians getting really worried and desperate.

Even if the national assembly manages to use hook and crook to transfer it to the exclusive list, two-thirds of states will still have to ratify it to become law and no southern state plus Benue and Plateau will agree to that proposal.

how many state in the west have passed the open grazing ban into law in the west? And how many in the east?
