HAhahaaa........ if you like try using words designed to make it look like you live in the states.... lol. You are still that ritual infested, low life LinkedIn scammer, hiding away in the brown region of Nigeria...that you are. And not that I give a damn what people do for a living, you can be an experience BEC Yahoo nigga for all I care....but you cross the line when as a scammer, you still have the audacity to be on the wrong side of history.... in Nigeria Politics. Trust me you will regret the day, you mentioned Bigkoko!

You are my personal project! while the Feds run their number on you....Buckeye media will hear from Bigkoko this summer...

buckeyemedia:
Old men Motown Wailers, yourself, Bigkoko & Bobloco your other Eyepobian bros must mark register.

They will blame the devil soon! Just That the devil will finish them

That's why I said a lot of you are stark illiterates who Know not what they argue about. Thankfully, you are cleared now about the Oil & Gas producing status of some states in SE.

Yes, the argument put further by Govt swobs is that States should use their advantage, no be so Kunle? Those who have the advantage of Oil & Gas should also use it. Those who have agricultural advantage should use it.

Those who plan to use advantage of VAT should also use it. Eat your VAT, but stop your parasitic feeding on oil and gas.

Oyo can have a VAT bigger than US.....your gain, your problem.

Stop been a long throat..... having a VAT bigger than SE but leeching on the oil gas from SE....

Paraman:
A lot of you Yibodients are just very slow. So nah only from oil and gas Nigeria dey earn revenue?

Oyo state generate more VAT than all the states in the south east combine. Ondo state generate is producing more oil than the whole south east combine.

In a normal society, the moment you purchase any commodity, whether, service, raw or finished, you pay a VAT on it.... That's what I'm referencing.

We want development, no be so? Developed a plan that favors or confers advantage to each region...that's what someone vested with power to rule everyone should do. Not looking at a plan to favor his own region or southern region. That's wickedness.

That's why everyone is suffering the effects of importing 90% of Nigeria imports through only Lagos when other ports can be developed with each measures!

Raph82:
Nigeria should remit vat state by state, isn't that what this reform is all about? Each state should be remitting vat based on value-added products consumed, keep 85% and remit 15% to the federal pause. Most of agric products produced in the North like beans, groundnut, maize, foodstuffs generally are sent out to other states from the North without adding any value to it. Besides, the northerners are not taxed on the basis of religion, yet they want vat money at the expense of other hardworking states. This is more of a parasitic arrangement if u may ask me. This tax reform bill will make other states like Osun, Ekiti and the northern states sit tight and think out of the box. Since this reform uproar, Ekiti has been brainstorming all along, because they know that this will affect them.

The Reform is silent on conglomerates with nationwide spread.... Such as to be the case of businesses like Coca-cola. That's why I said you lot should read it well.

The devil is in the details.

That's why I said most of you online are stark illiterate or up to something not good!

Free education: Imo & Abia are Oil & Gas producing States. Both currently earn the derivative Paid to oil & gas producing states which Oyo herein reference does not.

Enugu has proven deposit of Natural gas, primed for future exploitative activity.

Anambra also has Oil reserves.

Only Ebonyi currently can be said to be a parasite state according to what you mean by parasite.

Now, beside Ondo, which also produces few quantities of oil, which other state in SW is not a parasite state?

Don't write based on your emotions..... Smoking cannabis can sway emotions.

Paraman:
If Oyo is a parasite state, wetin we go talk about Imo, Abia, Anambra, Enugu and Ebonyi state?

As receyas last month, December 2024. Oyo collected allocation from the FAAC account, whose income comes mainly from proceeds of Oil & Gas..... Has Oyo become an Oil Gas producing state in Nigeria?

If no, then that Oyo you know, led by Makinde is a full blown parasite living off the body of it's hosts..... States producing oil Gas in Nigeria!

I won't be surprised many of you don't even know the meaning of parasite.....lol

Paraman:
Which Oyo are you talking about?

In respect to what you think, this Reform is done in bad faith, filled with half truths and other stuffs a Govt of propaganda is wont to do....

The devil is in the details..... Go read the full Bill. You will quickly realized it's full of bullshit.

If anyone, let alone Asiwaju is serious about reforming taxes in Nigeria, VAT must not be centralized, and conglomerates with nationwide spread must not be allowed to remittances from their HQ which for obvious reasons will be from Lagos or Ogun.

Companies like Coca cola whose income come from all over Nigeria should remit VAT state by state ditto alcohol companies.

Then, Agriculture & Shipping should also be reformed too. States should be allowed to to pass export tax on all produces moving to other states. Should Asiwaju over looked other sectors because it doesn't favor him, his state or region?

No be advantage we wan take of others, let everyone be taking advantage of everyone let's see how far the country will survive.

Raph82:
The tax reform bill is different from what u claim Buhari wanted to do. Zero tax for Nigerians earning below 800k to 1m per annum, and many Nigerians fall into this category, so how is the poor taxed? I think NOA needs to orientate nigerians fully on this subject matter in all the regions in the dialect of each region. Local language of each locality should be used in explaining.

You see this one, na small. When I personally take person matter, I don't relent until that person is bleeped.....

I will be in the US this summer, by then, the other food I cook for the scam Buckeyemedia go start from US soil.....

Buckeyemedia, operated by a Nigerian yoroban impersonating a dead American called James Minster, and other aliases he operates on LinkedIn and other Social Media!

Words on the street is that he is part of a BEC and Romance syndicate scamming Americans and Westerners.

Now, he claims a federal government; purportedly someone in the Nigerian govt, backs and sends him to do propaganda on their behalf, hence a license to do scams he's into on LinkedIn!

Nice details. When time reach Buckeyemedia will tell his backer in Nigerian govt, which gave him the license to scam as well as threaten those who don't have backers in Nigerian Govt..... You see this food I dey cook for you, before you eat five hands, that charm alfa make for you go bust for your belly....

FBI should hurry up..... Before more Americans fall victim to Buckeyemedia and those behind the scam.

buckeyemedia:
Who ask u gift card scammer wey the Feds they look for to believe something wey u mumuly assume Bigkokorep Alhaji Athiiru Jega?

Have you seen the full bill? You just dpend on what paid ads tell you Go and rad the il foryour self, then come let's hea what you make oof it!

Morality implies someone who kicked against tax refoms in recent years hould not be the one selling sae tax reform when in fact one of te things he forsaw is already happening! Are the peop not poorer now? is inflation not out of contro?

ou cant whitewash and sell a tomb to people like me....every used selpuchre contains dead bones and decayed flesh...

Lagos is a prime example how Asiwaju is unfit to reform tax laws in Nigeria. The blazen disregard for procuremet laws in awarding Coastal road project to his buddy, is another pointer...

adedayoa2:
But this one is not tax increase, are you sure you understand this tax reform? https://proshare.co/articles/president-tinubus-tax-reform-bills-under-a-microscope?menu=Economy&classification=Read&category=Taxes%20%26%20Tariffs

Hahahaha .... Same old format! The Alfa running the ritual s for you don deceive you....

That is why I think you are among the dumbest linkedin scammers ever! So you think everyone is dumb like you to believe pictures of Tv, flag and run down electric xtensions as proof you are in Ohio? Honestly, I never expected you to be this dumb.... Anyway, your dumbness, your problem to deal with.

HAhahahahahaa Ayodele Adeniran aka James Minster on one profile and other aliases in other profiles... Continue ohhh the Feds go soon grab you. when they do, tell them its a game and that na federal govt send you!

Tankio....

Ndi Ohio...lol

buckeyemedia:
Incoherent Confused rejected overweight Circus Clown 🤡, welcome to Columbus Ohio, home of The Buckeyes.

In classification economic parasites like some people from SW are now calling Northern states, I think 70% of states in Nigeria are parasites then... For instances, Ekiti, osun, Oyo are all states that will fizzle out once allocation from Abuja stops.

Now, if proper tax reforms are made, the North will be the biggest beneficiaries as 90% of food items comes from there. if Asiwaju is sincere, he can add Agricultural tax bills too......Every grain, fruits or tuber that comes from the Nortth can be tax.... yes, Nigerians are already paying tax without knowing. I have first hand seen how much agriculture brings Netherlands in a year...more than what Oil & gas brings Nigeria in 3 years.

Those egunje truck drivers pay corrupt soldiers & policemen on the road before these foods are brought are tax collected unofficially.... These are also passed across to the consumers during price planning. If you want serious, dey serious. we all saw the foolishness of Buhari quest to build railway to Niger when all hook & crony of Nigeria are not already linked up. Where is Ameachi explaining the nonsense then? In the dustbin of history!

Make it official and see North become the richest region within five years! A tax reform that favors only your state or region is wickedness wrapped in a beautiful & attraction covers! Say No to Asiwaju tax reform without accompanying, and immediate Agricultural & Shipping reforms!

I am sure most Igbos will floc North in Agro ventures...

Oyedele in 2019...... kicked against VAT, when Buhari wanted to make tax reforms, saying it will fuel inflation and make people poorer....

And, in a most arrogant display of hypocrisy,

Same Oyedele in 2025.....after getting appointment in his kinsman govt, suddenly feels VAT & Tax reforms is the best thing after gbegiri & Amala garnished with orishirishi..... what a people!

Humans without integrity! When the are outside Govt they speak with front mouth, when in gotv they speak with side mouth!

Heather hey are cleric ohhh, legal professors ohh or lowlife agberos, n the same thing!

HAhahahhahahaa..... another one! when you think you've seen it all! This low life, ritual infested scammer somewhere in Ogbomosho is now claiming Federal govt sent him to be creating Profiles of dead and living Americans on Linkedin..... . The only problem I have with low lives like you is that your likes no even get sense sabi run the shit una dey do!

Imagine the foolishness of creating scam Linkedin profiles of dead and living Americans, and still have the audacity to come on nairaland with one of the names you used in the scam Linkedin?

Wait till a Case officer with the FBI finish your matter, you will explain which Federal government sent you to be creating Profiles on Linkedin impersonating dead and living Americans.... Buckeyemedia & James Minster, right? No be so Ayodele Adeniran....lol. The Feds are on your matter...thats all I can say!

You can insult all you want, you can say all you wish....but trust me the Feds are on your matter... Buckeye Media Services and James Minster...lol

You and who dey recognize each other? What has a principled business guru gat to do ritual infeste low life LinkedIn scammer?

buckeyemedia:
Confused Clown, how Federal Government wan catch Federal Government?

Game recognizes game, & hores do to, u better recognize Bigkoko Eyepobian.

Queen @Thatisokolawyer infamous for her #Roadtovilla..... one of Those comparing HE Peter Obi to bros seyi last year May 2023 are already on X crying.... and swearing for Asiwjau and his cluelessness. Imagine the foolishnesss of comparing a jobless son with a hustler since his Varsity days..... Nigerians sha!!

But me thinks Asiwaju is trying. He made fatal mistakes which brought about a conflagration he and his team could no longer control...... But the most fatla one, which i still can not wrap around my head as to why, if not to loot huge sums of money is the sudden quest to build new coastal road as if the old ones were okay......Meanwhile,

Una never see anything. Better go find that Book written by Prof Unaneva C Sumtin. Cool downread am..... in preparation for 2027....

Prof Cc Oye Nzuzu should rest... Mbah of Enugu is not his mate, even though Anambra earns more, generate more revenue than Enugu..... In terms of leadership, Igbos knows who their true leaders are!

Imagine even Asiwaju avoids the loquacious failure with all the mouth he made about Taiwan-dubai in Anambra.....

Here's what Asiwaju came to commission:
1. 30 completed Enugu Smart Green Schools out of 260 under construction.

2. 60 equipped Type 2 Primary Healthcare Centres across 260 wards.

3. The Enugu International Conference Centre - a hub for global engagement.

4. 90 newly completed urban roads to ease mobility in our cities, and

5. A state-of-the-art Command and Control Centre with 150 AI-embedded patrol vehicles for enhanced security.

This is the same Enugu that went into the abyss of socio-economic degradation and structural abandonment for 8 solid years under the previous, utterly clueless and deluded administration. Peter is barely two years in power! This guy is a living testament to the fact that a people is as blessed or cursed as their leadership.

That conference center is a beauty to behold and the delivery time is beyond human comprehension. A five star hotel is also rising. Presidential hotel Enugu is rapidly coming back to life. An International healthcare center is coming. A massive ultramodern bus terminal is coming. Theme Parks and scores of tourist attractions are under construction and work on these projects progress steadily and simultaneously without interruption. Come on!

Without unnecessarily blowing his trumpets, I think @PNMbah is a divine compensation for those wasteful years.

Indeed, “Tomorrow is here,” not just for Ndi Enugu but for Ala Igbo in general, because Enugu, the de facto capital of the Eastern region is finally open for business. What joy!

@Solado ........ aka Prof Oye Nzuzu. No be by parding largely vseless qualifications..... if a trader is delivering, let him lead! Anambra is by far richer and mosre prosperous than Enugu!

Type 2 Medic facility in villages..... My village is one of the beneficiary

Igbos know their leaders, trust me Prof Oye Nzuzu of Anambra is certainly not among them!

In other of Income, Anambra, Imo & Abia is far richer than Enugu State, but check what this Mbah is doing, even though he allegedly stole LP mandate like Asiwaju, but see!

As long long as your mission is not to loot, what ever you do small small will shock!

Pray tell.....what Asiwaju has achieved since May 29 2023 he came into Aso Rock that he wants to use tax kee poor people in Nigeria?

Asiwaju was in Enugu today to commission the following projects:

1. 30 completed Enugu Smart Green Schools out of 260 under construction.

2. 60 equipped Type 2 Primary Healthcare Centres across 260 wards.

3. The Enugu International Conference Centre - a hub for global engagement.

4. 90 newly completed urban roads to ease mobility in our cities, and

5. A state-of-the-art Command and Control Centre with 150 AI-embedded patrol vehicles for enhanced security.

See how Egbon Asiwaju dey smile like person wey dey collect BJ....

#Enugu #Anambra #AlaIgbo #EasternRegion

Sound familiar about what we all know about people from that side?

According to Adnan Abdullahi Adam on X, "Even Mr Oyedele was saying this before he start eating": 👇

They know the truth, but long throat for wealth without enterprise and tribalism will never make them stand firm for the Country to move forward!

Who is Taiwo Oyedele?
He is the Chairman, Presidential Committee on Fiscal Policy and Tax Reforms, aptly appointed by Asiwaju

You can imagine...they sit somewhere in South West Nigeria, do all sorts of heinous rituals using human beings murdered and their body parts harvested......and end up creating fake profiles online, impersonating dead and living Americans.... to scam them.

I am sure one day, the Feds will get this Buckeyemedia

IDFforce1:
. That's what they do mostly over there in the west. They are into internet fraud and yahoo yahoo

Criminals full that side. Even that one called helenues na internet fraudster,

Is that his native name? On LinkedIn he's known as James Minster...... The only problem with that name is that, James Minster happens to be a dead American!

Your Ekundayo Ayodele Adeniran is impersonating a dead American...lol

IDFforce1:
. Mr Ekundayo Ayodele Adeniran

How is your family. Greetings my man. We are following you

LinkedIn scammer impersonating a dead American called James Minster.... Your cup will soon full.

Not that I care more what low lives do with their miserable lives, after years of using innocent human skull for rituals.....but for the fact that such low life is upbeat on foolishness, makes it's a patriotic duty to assist justice reach him sharp Sharp!!!

buckeyemedia:
U no go see those Eyepobians Bobloco, Tochi3, Tochi360, datniggadaz, kukutente23, Bigkoko & others here.

The controversy surrounding Asiwaju's proposed tax reforms can be effectively illustrated using Coca-Cola as an example to show how the reforms may disadvantage northern Nigeria while favoring Lagos and to a lesser extent some Southern states..... These few southern states are designed to be the Cannon fodder during the gba gbos with the north. Don't fall for it.

If Asiwaju is sincere to himself, he should reform the Shipping industry so other Southern states can be a shipping hub too!


Tax implications using Coca-Cola: The effects in Lagos vs. Northern Nigeria.

When Coca-Cola files its VAT returns through its head office in Lagos, all VAT revenue is attributed to Lagos, regardless of where the sales or consumption actually occurred across the country. This practice can result in significant regional imbalances, particularly under the proposed tax reform bill where 60% of VAT revenue is allocated to the state where consumption occurs. This is like hiding in plain sight! Allowing you to forget to look deeper into details, and rightly designed to undo you in the long run!

Key Issues with Filing VAT from Lagos Head Office

1. Misrepresentation of Consumption:

Sales generated in other states (e.g., Kano, Kaduna, or Maiduguri) are recorded as revenue originating from Lagos since the VAT is filed from the head office.

This skews the allocation of VAT revenue, giving Lagos a larger share while denying other states their rightful portion of revenue based on actual consumption.

2. Revenue Loss for Other States:

States where Coca-Cola products are consumed miss out on their 60% share of VAT revenue because the filing system attributes the revenue to Lagos.

This disproportionately benefits Lagos at the expense of states that also contribute significantly to Coca-Cola’s revenue through consumption.

3. Economic Inequity:

States with high sales and consumption of Coca-Cola products but no major corporate offices (common in northern Nigeria) are disadvantaged under the current system.

The concentration of corporate headquarters in Lagos centralizes VAT revenue, exacerbating regional disparities.

Possible Solutions to Address the Issue

1. Decentralized VAT Filing:

Require companies like Coca-Cola to file VAT returns in the states where sales are generated or consumption occurs.

This would ensure that VAT revenue is accurately allocated based on the geographic distribution of sales.

2. Clear Consumption Reporting:

Implement a system where companies report sales and VAT collected on a state-by-state basis, allowing for a fair distribution of revenue.

3. Federal Oversight and Redistribution:

The federal government could take responsibility for aggregating VAT revenue and redistributing it based on actual consumption data rather than the location of corporate offices.

Implications Under the Current System

If no changes are made, the practice of attributing all VAT to Lagos due to centralized filing will continue to disproportionately enrich Lagos while depriving other states, particularly those in northern Nigeria, of critical resources needed for development. This underscores the need for a more equitable VAT collection and distribution framework.

By the way, most IOCs (International Oil Companies) have their HQ in Lagos even though production is nowhere near Lagos. Guess what? Lagos receives the tax that Delta, Akwa Ibom, Rivers, Abia, Imo, Edo, should have!

If the Free money guaranteed by Oil Gas flowing from Niger Delta and some Igbo States (Imo & Abia) shared every month is reformed, such that 80-90% of it goes to the State according to earnings, most States like Ogun will have a yearly budget of less than 200 billion naira.

Na free money & borrow borrow dey make them design any budget them like!

Stop calling the North parasites.... leeching on Free money. 60% of States in Nigeria are parasites leeching on Free money too!

To mention a few.....Ekiti, Osun, Oyo etc. are all parasites too!

Hahahahahaha....... I can certain things from a long distance, even if wrapped in a crowd of ghosts!

bigpicture001:
She knows u know her mission..?

100% in agreement!

Which tax reform is better than resource control? This will force Kano you mentioned to know that there's no free money from Abuja, thus they either become creative or build a budget according to their IGR?

But, wetin I Sabi sef? No be Nigeria again where them ask person for school result, instead of showing results, he go employ 10 SANs....

Moroccoguy:
The country just need the tax reform like , check Kano 2025 budget and compare with their IGR, 90% of budget fund is coming from federal allocation.

Here's where conglomerates with nationwide tentacles comes into play!

Say Coca cola.....

This company takes sales from all over the country, but has its office listed as in Lagos, no be Adamu? Now, if Coca cola files it's Tax or makes remittances for VAT, Biko which state will it remittance it from?

Make una understand this bill. Say them give you akara, while them keep suya, fried rice and turkey for them selves.... No mean say them like you or even get your interest for heart!

Proposed Changes:

Personal Income Tax Adjustments: Individuals earning up to ₦800,000 annually would be exempt from income tax, aiming to reduce the tax burden on low-income earners. Higher income brackets would experience adjusted tax rates to ensure a more equitable system.

Value Added Tax (VAT) Revenue Sharing: The proposed formula allocates 60% of VAT revenue to the state where goods and services are consumed, 20% based on population, and 20% equally among all states.

I know many dumb nairaland residents on 30k don't even know what the tax bill is all about.... This is 2025...and I'd like to educate them Free of charge.....

Key Components of the Tax Reform Bills:

1. Nigeria Tax Bill 2024: This bill seeks to consolidate existing tax laws, providing a comprehensive legal framework for the taxation of incomes, transactions, and instruments.


2. Tax Administration Bill: Aims to streamline tax administration processes, reducing complexities and enhancing efficiency.


3. Nigeria Revenue Service (Establishment) Bill: Proposes the establishment of the Nigeria Revenue Service, intended to replace the Federal Inland Revenue Service, centralizing tax collection and administration.


4. Joint Revenue Board (Establishment) Bill: Seeks to create a tax tribunal and tax ombudsman to address disputes and ensure fairness in the tax system.

The North smuggled in the 1999 constitution under unclear terms, now Asiwaju wants to smuggle a tax bill that would be just exactly what the 1999 constitution has become to everyone: A GROSSLY SKEWED DOCUMENT UNFIT TO ADEQUATELY RUN A EUROPEAN STANDARD PIG FARM!

Remember...... This my friends, as more countries becomes more nationalistic, a time will come when y'all will realize how stewpid it was allowing drug bagmen to run wild....

There's what you call Spread Effects and Concurrent effects......

Agreed, the present tax laws is outdated....like 100 years behind what you see in the least country in Europe.... But what spread & Concurrent effect is Asiwaju planning on having on a starving population?

Like someone said, why reform a section that affects people already complaining about hunger?

If he's reforming the shipping industry to attract more. Investors in other lucrative Port zones, it be understandable..... But Asiwaju won't do that... because it's un-advantageous to him & his agenda!
