So was this how Tinubu developed Lagos in 1999?

I mean tax tax tax

At the end of all the taxing nothing I mean absolutely nothing to show for it

Too many taxation for a country that doesn’t pay tax refund to her citizens

Taxing rich people that own our means of production, natural resources and our ports in a country where prices of goods are not regulated.

if they own it then it's not yours
Nobody stop you from owning means of production like the rich



.
In the end, the rich people will increase the cost of their goods and the poor people will suffer.

I hate Nigeria.

why
Do you think other countries don't raise taxes?

Companies are making billion ,because the leverage on what they have.
Nigeria has a population of over 100 million people, toll gate on strategic road is already earning government million daily.

which toll gate
They were destroyed, no govt toll gate in Nigeria



.
Removing Corporate tax will attract industries into Nigeria. Jobs will be created.

govt doesn't care about jobs
It caress about loot



.
Taxing wealth will cause the rich to hid the wealth in safe haven, which will affect consumptions locally.

not really, they just pass cost to consumers



.
Nigeria government at all lever should remove all tax and introduce services charges for strategic services. as it will boost competition among states,lga and fg.

govt will choose easier option



.
There are lot of services state,lga and fg can do to generate lots of revenue to cover budget
still a tax

This is a wrong policy for Nigerians.

U and I aren't importers of goods and services but the rich,so if u tax them anyhow,it will result in high cost of goods and services.

Shey,u are into farm feeds or farm tech,u will see the bandwagon effects very soon.

Remember the poor does not produce anything yet they good to the market.

But they said corporate tax will be reduced

Indeed. I wonder if Whizzkid, Davido, Rhema, Ayra Star, Nollywood stars etc pay Tax. Even Bola Tinubu and lll the politicians, where is their tax return?

There are many other folks too who do not pay income tax.

Landlords who collect rent
Food people who go to cater at parties
Comedans and MC's
Those who do business on social media
People who do property agent

Left to me, personal income tax act should be modified such that you can't do the following if you don't file your income tax annually;

Register a vehicle
Register land documents
Get a international passport
Get a driver's license
Buy an airplane ticket domestic or international
Utilize any form of public transport
Register your children in any school - private or public
Operate a bank account etc

Corporate tax does not solve our problems. For instance u tax Dangote based on what he produces. He will hike the price of cement just to cushion the effect of the burden of tax,meaning u and I will have to pay for it directly or indirectly even ur landlord will not spare u.

Back to Corporate tax...the employer particularly the govt will reduce the employee tax but he will pay high cost of it when he or she purchases pampass,milk,meat that is because,our govt don't produce anything at all. We are an import dependent country.

Funny enough rich Nigerians pay plenty property tax on their houses abroad.
But if tell them to pay property tax on their house in banana island, they will shout from here till tomorrow.

Guy you annoy me to the point wey be say I grind my teeth, didn't know internet comments could do that to me. And I've found its not your comment per se, it's that there are still people like you who are on the lowest level of consciousness who side with their oppressors in 2023.

Nobody stop me from owning means of production? Then where's my land at birth? Where's my loan from the bank at reasonable interest rate? Where's my seat at the org where rich people like Dangote and Otedola owe us billions of dollars!

"Other countries" use all sort of different methods to control prices of their goods. They even set up publicly owned organisations just to compete with certain industries because you always have to check capitalism, it's very exploitative in nature.

In the end, I can't blame you. Our govt have completed the full cycle of oppression and doublespeak. They've purposely excluded subjects that's supposed to raise your consciousness from your syllabus.

I have an assignment for you, go read all the books on CLASS CONSCIOUSNESS you can find on Google. The solulu to your delulu is in a book, black man.

No, no, I assure you, you're siding with your opppresors.

Name one person with land at birth? The children of your opppresors are given free land at birth in any choice location in Nigeria.

Is loan a right? See, as a black man you must begin to evaluate everything you see and like I told you the answer is in books. The banks are built by people who steal our resources and then in the same breathe refuse to offer loans to the people they impoverished. Do you think poor people can start up banks? Regardless of the debt Otedola has, how come they still give him loans whereas you without debt stands no chance.

Lmao name them? If you've not heard of this, then you should not be starting arguments about economics. The rest of your questions are just silly.

From your last phrase, I can tell you've already aligned with your opppresors. Talking about "get strong or get dead" hoping to be an opppresor in the future but it'll never happen for you. They're lying to you because they know you're not class conscious. You go do yessir yessir till your back break.
