You have to give it to Chief Bola Ahmed Tinubu on anything Tax and Levy's....


He might be a notorious Olodo in matters of "Statistics" and good Governance but when it comes to Taxation, Levy's and settling his family with public funds, he is just like Prime Zlatan Ibrahimovic
Mehhh, Tinubu is only good in taxation nothing else

Good move. Will save our forex. Some of these companies approaching CBN for forex to pay expatriates staff will have to stop. Imagine dangote petroleum employing 11,000 Indians and all have to be paid in dollars is that not a scam.

This is a welcome development, am very sure it will meet a very stiff opposition because a lot of our leaders are benefiting from these no nothing so called expatriates. If its duely implemented Nigerians will gain more employment.

We Nigerians Voted for you over the incompetent Peter Obi because of your trusted and tested ability to deliver. Your template in building modern Lagos is an inspiration to we Nigerians and that is why we gave you our mandate. May God bless president Bola Tinubu and give him strength to fulfill his renewed hope agenda. It shall end in praise and we shall all smile at the end of these reforms. This renewed Hope will Favor me and my Family. Amen

The news is about Tinubu, but your headache this early morning is Obi.

Get well soon.

In a typical construction in Nigeria, an engineer in Nigeria is made to work under a white engineer. It could also be that the Nigerian engineer has more paper qualifications than the white but he has to dig while the white seats in the tractor and orders everyone around.

Academic qualification without practical experience is irrelevant in Engineering.

Most of these so called expatriates are even trained by Nigerians when they finally arrive. Most knows next to nothing... Indigenous company only use them as puppets for their skin colours

PBAT is frustrating the likes of Dangote who prefers to hire Indians as experterat than Nigerians and most tech companies who love foreign tech guys grin . The truth is we have talented Nigerians who can do better or the same thing but black man inferiority complexity and not wanting fellow blacks to grow is why most of this big biz prefers foreign experterat angry .
I have worked with a good numbers of tech companies and I can tell you that this is one of the overlooked act that is draining our FOREX because these foreign guys are paid in hard currency, Indian tech guys are paid 10k USD why we that does most of the job are paid 100k Naira where I worked.
If this is well implemented unemployment rate will reduce, and the tax should be 30% of the gross pay

For the first time I will applaud Tinubu. This is a good move to bridge the gap between foreigners and Nigeria employees. Also those foreign owned companies that treats Nigerians like slaves need to closed down.

This is an excellent idea, this will make our employers start appreciating us and invest in building local content capacity instead paying expatriate hugely and giving us peanuts.

Imagine when expatriate is earning about 9k dollars per month and his juniors doesn't earn 300k per month, they will still get local allowances, when the company can afford to train their own staff to be an expert.

The expatriate will then repatriate the funds to their country, alot of anomalies.

There can be expatriate but the organisation must be tasked with building their own staff capacities which will over time become the strength of the nation by increasing knowledge.

Wouldn’t this increase the service fee of this company.... they will also increase their price,just saying.

I have tried to relocate to Cayman Islands in the past. That small country will only give you a work visa if you're coming to do a job their citizens can't do. That's what Tinubu is trying to achieve here. If foreign workers are expensive, you will use local ones or train them. Simple!

Yes... Jagaban is definitely working. He started poorly due to his haste in making economic policies, but he has been spot-on in key areas.

I commend his swift and tactical approach to working with Labor organizations too.

I pray he succeeds all around... God knows, Nigeria desperately needs great Leadership at this critical juncture.


As for Peter Obi... He is doing what every strong Opposition in Nigeria has done since 1999. Buhari and Tinubu did worse to Jonathan. cool

Nice one from Bola. This is similar to LMIAin Canada. It's a good step if we'll implemented, and should come with heavy price tag to discourage firms from patronizing it.

You gave him kudos for tax and levy (aka tax reforms) and in the breath called him an olodo in statistics. You're definitely on hard drugs.

Bro, only those affected would be the ones to understand, if our national/ natural resources can be used to build their big companies then they owe us that right of helping us to grow capacity instead always throwing us as apprentice with peanut under them. Train, develop and pay us well, boys will stay in the country.

It's so, so refreshing to have this man as the president of my beloved country. Kudos to PBAT.

The more expatriate any company hire, the more their service charge. This moves not only going to benefit Nigerians especially in construction companies but also reduce the amount the contract are awarded.
