The receipt shows payment for advertising/Signage…
So it wasn't taxation, i bet the payer doesn't know that he paid just for signage/advert.

This is wickedness. shocked

I think Nigerians need a tax break.
At least some of them!

No they don’t, why because, if the money is being used appropriately like western world does, you’ll not argue to pay taxes.I work as a Registered behavioral technician in California and my two weeks check is at least$2000, but I’m being taxed nothing less than $650 for taxes.After all taxes are being used wisely.Nigeria should wise up, and vote wisely without sentiments.Vote Peter Obi and Datti.

I first heard about this from someone but today, the tax force came my street. To avoid their embarrassment, I just approached one of them and made a transfer.

My neighbor's terminal was seazed and he was made to pay more before they released his terminal.

Omo! In this hard economy, we are still being taxed for everything and yet we get little or nothing back.

Below is a copy of my receipt.


But u guys make a lot of money why is it hard to pay taxes.

Averagely if u make 5k gain daily Monday to Saturday, multiply thay to a month.

You never come here to show us the bannoes your dey straff with your PoS money nah when government collect tax u dey talk bullshit.

Nah wetin dem hmgo use take develop road and schools if we no contribute our quotas

They didn't say its for the signboard. They said they were asked by the state government to collect tax from all pos operators

Then that payment receipt says otherwise.

How is it extortion? The average Pos operator makes at least 2k daily, in many instances more. 2k x 30= 60k
60k x 12 = 720k
10k makes up less than 2% of a pos operator’s income. Please do enlighten me how it’s extor.
Lol. Wrong assumption. A POS operator not making six figures in a month is a joker. It's only fair if it's yearly tax.

RISAA is not tax. It's payment for signages and advertisement. Every state's got its own.

The payer knows. They just want to misinform the public.

And the tax is coming from a Signage agency, so you're paying for that small POS sign board in essence

Wike with his thousands of special advisers: is this what they recommended to you ?

Dictatorial , arrogant, proud, uncivilised governor.
A brash , uncouth, uncivilised and disrespectful man can never make a good leader overall.
Thank God he did not make it to the national stage of presidency, the type of dictatorial president he would have been is such as Nigeria has never seen

This is not tax, but payment for signage that our government use to extort the poor masses every state has it own. Lagos has lasaa though I'm not sure they charge pos operators. The day I learn to hawk bottle water inside traffic or push wheelbarrow for Lagos you pay ticket daily I almost cried

I was only informing you that the ops hasn’t alleged that they are being made to pay multiple tax. Until he does we assume that this is the only tax he is paying

I'm not surprised

They even collect levies from those poor women, little children and petty traders along the streets and markets.

They're known to do things like this
Very wicked and jobless lazy youths. Most annoying is the fact that Wike is aware of this wicked act and has done nothing about it.

WICKED PEOPLE EVERYWHERE

It’s a yearly tax and my assumption isn’t wrong either. The average Pos operator does make up to 2k daily.
