Meaning you have no facts at all to back up your assertions.

You fail statistics forever.

So, using your method, if a young woman in your village lies, we can assume everyone in your village is a liar.

Good evening, and grow up. What you are doing is wrong, and the sad thing is that you will go to church on Sunday and call yourself a Christian. Or a morally good person. And before you start...I don't support APC, i NEVER voted for Buhari, I think that states should colelct whatever tax they want, but lying is not good.

And you sir...are a liar and a bigot.
can you do research and counter the guys proof and evidence too??

Is there any responsible and educated Ipob terrorist? grin grin why is your leader sorry 'dilector' so dumb that he would be arrested easily and brought back to the zoo? grin.

Your problem is not illiteracy, it is mental retardation.
Buhari was caught and jailed by IBB. He didn't even run before he was caught. That is the Buhari ruling Nigeria.
Kanu will one day rule the North and your Sultan will bow to him in Abuja.

You are the foolish one. The KPMG report you quoted clearly states that "for VAT purposes "basic food items" as described in the finance act 2019 excludes restaurants , hotels, eateries, lounges and other similar premises from the VAT exemption"

What the above means is that when you visit restaurants , eateries, lounges, you have to pay VAT since they are not considered as basic food items.

For clarity, basic food items could be rice and garri etc you buy from the market. Do not confuse people with your lack of knowledge .

blamingthedevil:



Op olodo...no VAT on selected basic food items. You must be a graduate without knowledge.

If you are knowledgeable, When you were charged in Portharcourt, you were supposed to know that they are doing the wrong thing in Rivers, while Borno doing the right thing.

I can see bandwagon comments too. Most just went to school, but zero knowledge clouded by tribalism and religion.

Can OP show me any more data to back up his claims?

Remember he made the claims., I did not.

If he can't maybe you should. If you can't then I can, until either of you bring out more data,safely assume that your whole methodology is flawed.

What you guys are doing is similar to me making assumptions of the morals of all the people in your village, based on the bad morals exhibited by the village black sheep. That's not how one does statistics.

Okay...

That means that when you are doing a study on say 'Prevalence of people who read newspapers in your town',,...all you just do is interview one person in your house, and assume that everyone in your town buys a newspaper and reads it, including the babies.

Got it.

Also, I can safely assume that , using the methods that the OP you are defending is using, just because the Police caught a thief from your village, therefore, everyone in your village is a thief

OP is making assumptions on the VAT paying of a state from a single resturant receipt...a single resturnat reciept from one resturant....and you are hailing him as the second coming of Einstein.

And you are calling me unintelligent?

Right.

when are we seeing your receipt to prove that they pay in Borno??

You are the one making the claims that Borno doesn't pay VAT...so go and bring all the receipts and other documentary evidence that proves your assertion from a sample of resturants in Borno and compare it with a sample of resturants in Rivers or any SOuthern state, and then prove your point.

If you can't, then hold your peace.

All I know is, as some great person once said

I realize that patriotism is not enough, I must have no hatred or bitterness towards anyone.

You have no proof that the state pays no VAT...so you resort to hate. Well, as far as I know, hate is a very destructive and evil thing...to the person expressing it. You harm yourself by indulging in it.

Well, I will never ever hate you or anyone on this site.

Where is this Nigeria going?
You got "37Likes", which shows that there are at least 37 dumbfucks who agreed with your "IGNORANCE", and a Blissful one for that matter!

It is even shocking that you were so blissful in it that you went about abusing someone and even ased the Mod to be sacked! shocked grin


I am sure you are a Northerner and l can bet you are one of theor "most educated", perhaps a PhD in Sharia Law, from one University in Sudan grin grin

Well, l cant blame you, it is Lugard that shackled your type with humanbeings in Southern Nigeria.
Let me give you "Free Education", so you can go back to your north and educate your Almanjiris:

- These Receipts are from RESTAURANTS.
- Restaurants are not Farmers, they provide Catering Service (Cook Food for people to Buy or Eat.
- VAT is paid on ALL SERVICES, irrespective of where it is provided.
- The Restaurants are offering 'value Added" Services to the Food, so they will charge "Value Added" Tax (VAT)

So, in essence, Restaurants should charge VAT, according to the Law, whether they are in Borno, Sokoto or Rivers or Oyo or Akwa Ibom.

But the problem is that you Northerners are just "Freeloading" on Southerners, even the Electricity that was privatised, you still wont pay for it.
That is why you will observe that it is only in Southern Nigeria, that all these Govt Agencies like Custom, Immigration, Police Check Points, FRSC, etc are "Effectively Operating", it is only in Southern Nigeria that they flex muscle on the Citizens/
80% of Nigeria's Resources, come from the South.
North is just a Leech, parasiting on the South.

This is my final comment on this thread

The problem with this thread is not that some states are benefiting at the expense of others, but that some people are willing to use the old weapons of bigotry and hate against those they don't agree with.

Well, the thing is, hate is destructive to those who wield it. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but soon.

Well, I have been associated with this site for the last 9 years. I thought I would take a break from it, and have done so many times but I came back here. many times...well I think that this is my last comment on this site forever. I am not coming back again.

It seems that most Nigerians tend to spend too much time crying, and too less time doing things, or finding solutions. That's why we are prey to all sorts of demagogues..religious or political. Our cult is the cult of victimhood and hate. Everyone is to blame but ourselves. And this makes discussions here wearying.

Well, it has been a nice time here. Now is the time to fly off this site.

My last words are not mine...

Stop typing rubbish and trying to run away from the truth.

So it is hate and bigotry that makes Northerners not to pay tax but they are sharing in the Tax paid by Southerners?
You Parasites are not ready to change and that is why l am convinced beyond doubt that this contraption that joined North and South together, is a FRAUD and will be dissolved, sooner than later.
If we have to go to War to do so, we will
though, it is better we do so through a simp,e Referendum, which the "Northern Parasites" have been preventing from happening.

Oga you are the real olodo sha. The op presented 2 documents within the same month showing what was purchased and the type of tax paid. Secondly the 2020 finance act on vat didn't exempt basic food sold in restaurants and lodges etc

So attached are two food receipts from restaurants in Maiduguri Borno state and Portharcourt Rivers state where I went to eat.

It clearly shows VAT are collected in Rivers, but not Borno and most other northern states. I have been to Adamawa, Yobe, Kebbi, Taraba, Bauchi and host of other northern states.

NOTE: I took the pics myself. First one is from Maiduguri, while the second is from portharcourt; and they re all from this month.
Whenever you want to do experiments such as this, be systematic.
..
If you went to a KFC outlet in Borno..
And then to KFC outlet in Rivers..
And you discovered this, then we can understand.
..
What if the Zero-tax you discovered inside the pictures you showed for Borno Was because the Hebron Foods pegged their own tax at Zero??
