I was saddened to learn of President Tinubu’s unfortunate fall today. I wish him well. We achieve nothing by gloating about an accident that could well happen to any of us.
..
We are all human beings and, while we profoundly disagree on how to move Nigeria forward, we must remember our common human frailty. Let us stay focused on the issues that will lead to a new Nigeria.
..
May this moment serve as a poignant reminder of our shared humanity and the need for compassion, empathy, and unity in our pursuit of a brighter future for our great nation. -PO

If you grew up in the 70s, 80s and the early 90s, you surely have a story to tell about your mum having this footwear. Our mothers didn't joke with it as it was a 'must have' for 70s and 80s Nigerian mums. Fondest memories.

Abeg share your stories joor!!!

1. how is lack of data responsible for squandering and embezzling taxes?

b. are you saying that all taxes that made it to their destination were never and have never been embezzled and squandered?

2. if there is no data, how did you arrive at your 56%?

b. how is lack of data responsible for leakages into private pockets and the present abysmal state of the economy?

3. I have read what you have written above. how does it answer the question....What is the benefit of all this data you are talking about?

lexy2014:
you didnt answer my questions.

1. All the income and sundry taxes that have been paid so far, what has been done with them?

2. Is it because government does have data to track the amount of money in the system according to you that economy is in shambles?

3. What is the benefit of all this data you are talking about?

Ochyes:
Many Nigerians are facing hard times, you wanna increase it??

LandMann:
You have been conditioned like in Pavlov's dog and bell experiment to believe that more taxes is what the government needs to solve Nigeria's problem.

But what you don't know is that tax is an easy way for government to be extremely lazy and unproductive.

Also, tax discourages productivity.

There are countries doing well without taxing their citizens

Stop giving the corrupt and useless government in Nigeria ammunition to kill the people

antiMuhamad:
Are you dreaming or what? Nigerians pay income tax. I am very sure of that. pay as you earn is one of them that is heavily imposed even on private workers. Go do your research again abeg no come dey yarn nonsense here.

Wait, let's finish making laws for the national anthem first.

National anthem is more important than minimum wage

faithfull18:
They pay, go to FIRS or any state IRS to get the data you need.

faithfull18:
Are you new here Nigerians pay income tax infact for government workers, both state and Federal, it's deducted from source. Same thing is done for most private organisations too. Commodity tax is also charged in supermarkets, malls etc., there's consumption tax too, whether it's remitted is talk for another day. Taxes with no corresponding economic improvement rather looted or spent on a select few.

ELECTORAL REFORMS:
((SUGGESTIONS))

INEC SHOULD BE MANDATED BY THE ELECTORAL-ACT TO SEND ALL THEIR ELECTION DATA TO THE NATIONAL BUREAU OF STATISTICS (NBS) AFTER EACH ELECTION.

The National Assembly should amend the Section-62-(subsection-2) of the Electoral-Act in such a way that the INEC should be mandated -- to within a SPECIFIED TIMEFRAME after the announcement of the results (Say; 2-weeks) -- publish on their website; ALL the Election Accreditation Data including the summarized final results, together with all the lower-level collated results and the various results of the various Polling-units -- for each of the elections that are concluded by the INEC.
(The Election Accreditation Data which are published on the website should come with all the possible categorizations and demographics fully represented).



..

The Electoral-Act should also be amended in such a way to mandate the INEC -- to within a SPECIFIED TIMEFRAME after the announcement of the results (Say; 2-weeks) -- Formally/Officially send ALL the Election Accreditation Data including the summarized final results to the office of the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) for statistical documentation purposes.
The NBS (after receiving the set of data from the INEC) should be mandated by the Electoral-Act to run series of necessary independent consistency-tests on the whole set of data received (without any further compulsory input from the INEC during the period of the consistency-tests) before making the data public on their platforms; from where independent researchers can have access to the election data.
The maximum timeline for the election data to be made public by the NBS (including the publishing of the comprehensive reports which showed all the methodologies and the full results of all the consistency-tests which they conducted on the election results) should also be specified inside the Electoral-Act.. (Say; 3-weeks).
(The Election Accreditation Data that is sent to the NBS by the INEC should have all the possible categorizations and demographics fully represented in it)

The Electoral-Act should also indicate what would happen to the sets of data that were sent to the NBS, should in case the data-set FAILS the mandatory consistency-tests that would be conducted by the NBS.

BluntCrazeMan:
I strongly believe that the day when the INEC-Results (and all the Possible Election DATA that goes with the Results) start to get fully published for public viewing and scrutiny (and also open to independent forensic audit) within 14-days of declaring the results,, that would be the only time our elections are beginning to get transparent enough...
