Shettima is a big goat. He thinks Nigerians abroad are like the meek ass kissers he has back home. Kemi takes no crap from anyone. She's an example of what all Nigerians could be in the right environment. Shettima should cover his big head in shame, going around shouting Nigeria is the greatest black nation, when we can't even generate a 10th of electricity SA generates.

We will be here when the same white British rubbish her.

We be here when they tell her she an immigrant or a black monkey.

Na today...........she knows deep down herself just doing everything possible to please them cos of her own selfish interests.

Said it here severally VAT is majorly generated from grocery purchases , telecom usage.


Most people here are just ignorant about this VAT honestly.

You see someone mentioning oil companies during VAT discussion....😆

HarunaWest:
Go and read all the nine pages before we begin to argue. The sensational ones were posted and everyone is already reacting to it. What the RMAFC did was to draw the governments ear and give advice on the best way to go. We keep allowing politicians to intefere into the affairs of our institutions. Look how docile and comical INEC has become. What the RMAFC reminded the executive was that some it is constitutionally empowered in regards revenue mobilization and fiscal policies and enactment. They should be carried along thats all.

Does reading the 9 pages change the fact he goofed and that the reason he clearing things??

Even in western word your don't threaten your boss even if it an independent body.

How can you be issuing statements stylishly threatening the executive and legislator.

The man goofed big time.

Bobloco:
Very, very possible

You seem to not know the decrepit level to which our justice system has sunk.

What i don't understand is this emotional blackmail some of you are pulling.

If you accuse anyone of doing something wrong if the person feel offended doesn't he/she has any right to fight you prove what you accuse of him in court again??

HarunaWest:
The same democracy empowered them..stop talking gibberish....Its like usurping CBN or FIRS heads roles and you ask them not to speak out. Instead of us to build strong institutions, we keep building strong men. Nawa to una.

Can CBN or FIRS threaten the executive and legislator??

Maybe you should read the post again.

Watched this movie over the weekend and it was good .

Nigeria lecturers don't even deserve the 400k

Imagine having a lecturer who takes you automobile in 500lvl and he can't even fix lil issues in his own car.

This man had to call road side mechanic to fix battery issue in his car.....I almost insulted him that day cos he was my project supervisor.


Just come to the classroom tells us to open to page so so in our manual while reads to us like tales by moonlight and that lecturing.

No invention or innovation what so ever......just talks and solving rubbish dy/dx

SmartPolician:
Oga Bayo Onanuga, I had to quickly google your background to find out if you are a midstream oil/gas engineer. Funnily enough, I saw that you are a journalist.

I don't care whether that refinery is working or not, but next time make sure you do fact-checking with people with vast industry experience. It makes your story more believable.

Na for this country dem dey use generator supply power to a power plant just to deceive one president who came to commission it.

So when dangote refinery started it was engineer he invited to fact check if it was running?
Nah engineers go do investigation about the refinery

Some of you just comment without reading what you typing.

EXPRESSSMAN:
That's why our tax collection is very low. In advance countries, it is not a joke. They will track every transaction and ensure that the right amount of tax paid. Or you go to prison when you default.

Like you aren't guilty of the same thing.

EXPRESSSMAN:
Yes, you will include the VAT in the price you will sell it to me. Then when I pay, you will remove it and pay to the government through the Firs.

Joke of the year.

yinkbell:
Don't be too quick to dismiss someone's opinion and also stop portraying yourself an island of knowledge.

Always do your background checking before tagging people airing their opinion in this forum illiterates.

Custom uses Vehicle Identification Number to determine the amount imported vehicle would be in US dollars and use their calculator on computer to calculate the duties the importers will pay.

The total custom duty to be paid is the summation of all the charges above; that is
Import duty + Levy + SUR + ETL + VAT = Total custom duty payable
Do you now see that VAT is inclusive?

There is element of truth in what they guy said even though it may not be absolute.

The VAT they charge is for service they rendered at the port.....It isn't custom duty payable.

I will post custom duty someone paid in semptember to clear you.

EXPRESSSMAN:
VAT is value added tax. This is how it works. When you import cars or other goods, you pay VAT based on the duty you pay. It is not based on the value of the goods.
Then when you sell the car or the goods, you made some profit. This means that you have added some values to the car or the goods. So you pay another VAT based on the value you added. That's if you make 100k as profit. You VAT will be based on that profit not on the value of the car.
If the person who bought it sell it and make some profit, he will still pay VAT based on the profit he made. It goes on like that. This is how VAT works.

So if I sell my car to you ...you will pay VAT??

EXPRESSSMAN:
Guy, don't argue what you don't know.
You pay 7.5% of your assessed duty as VAT, . Later the customs passed The VAT to Firs. That's how it works. You can ask anyone. I don't need to post any receipts because it is a common knowledge.

VAT is only pay for goods and services.

You pay VAT when you purchase a car only in Nigeria.

You can't pay a levy and still be charge VAT it doesn't make any sense.....custom duties is a levy.

[quote author=McLizbae post=133155383][/quote]Totally agree bro.....we are just terrible people

EXPRESSSMAN:
You are the one that is the illiterate. Can you pay duty without paying VAT on it?
You don't know that you pay VAT on the amount of duty you paid, Mr literature.

Kindly post receipt of the duties you payed that VAT was added since you slow to know what is called double taxation.

I always tell y"all Nigerian politician are all the same.

Donatus Mathew, an ex-okada rider who surged to victory on the wave of the Labour Party’s momentum during the 2023 election in Southern Kaduna, has abandoned LP and switched allegiance to the ruling All Progressives Congress.

Mathew, who represents the Kaura federal constituency under the LP, defeated Gideon Gwani, the House of Representatives Minority Chief Whip from the Peoples Democratic Party.

His victory sparked enthusiasm among many activists in Southern Kaduna, particularly as he unseated a four-term incumbent lawmaker of the Kaura Federal Constituency.

Stephen Kefason, an activist who celebrated Mathew’s triumph at the time, has now voiced his disappointment over the lawmaker’s defection to APC.

He shared his sentiments via his X account, saying, “This opportunistic okada rider, who capitalised on Peter Obi’s popularity to secure the House of Representatives seat for Kaura constituency in Southern Kaduna, has shamelessly defected to the APC. He has failed miserably as a lawmaker, boasting 0 bills and 0 motions to his name since joining the National Assembly.

shortgun:
Exactly, the northerners know the bill is not in their best interest, that's the reason they oppose it.
They will still get money from alcohol and betting in the proposed bill....

So we should do things in there own best at the detriment of ours??

They will get money generated from alcohol and betting in there region which is fine.

shortgun:
Going by what you wrote, if you are a leader in the north will you support the bill?

I won't support the bill......but I will stop the foolishness of calling alcohol and betting haram but collecting money made from it.

It is clear alot of people here don't even know what VAT is and is depressing.

Firstly , 4 tax reform bills was proposed and only one of this bills is actually causing issues cos selfish northern governors don't care if VAT is increased to 50% but fighting against sharing formula cos of there own pockets.

VAT means Value Added Tax.
It is actually a small tax people pay mostly on groceries, drinks,internet subscriptions, cable subscriptions, tickets etc
It is totally different from co operate tax ,income tax etc

Now people saying lagos will benefit the most cos most companies head offices are there are totally wrong, the tax this companies pay is totally different from VAT.

Lagos will actually benefit cos of it population and purchasing power of the people there. The more people buy things from stores, check into hotels,bar ,bet etc the more money for lagos.

Most northern governors are against it cos they mostly dont run stores or places were VAT can be charged on goods purchased in the north, there internet and cable subscriptions is also very low which means they won't be able generate much.
Alcohol and betting which is one of the major sources of VAT isnt allowed in there region.

We citizens majorly pay VAT on goods and services we purchase (selected one actually)
When next you go to your groceries stores kindly check the payment receipt you given so you see VAT you paid for what you purchased.

Lastly let read more and ask questions before writing about things cos is actually appalling seeing someone writing lagos will benefit the most cos oil companies head offices are in lagos, like what does oil companies have to do with VAT.

dealslip:
Omo I actually refrained from calling him an illiterate. I now see why the bill is having challenges. If he could articulate such rubbish in English language. Asides that car has nothing to do with VAT, how does the excise duties on cars be paid to Lagos instead of NPA? It's so tiring!!

Honestly am tired of reading people showing pure ignorance with so much boldness.

Most of them don't even no the meaning of VAT to start with, imagine him saying oil companies paying VAT.

Honestly people need to read more in this country cos it is appalling seeing an educated person writing about something he knows nothing about with confidence.

Macphenson:
One of the most controversial issues in this Tax Reform Bill is that 60% of VAT to be shared by states will be given to the state it was collected from, It seems by this it will only favour mostly Lagos and Rivers State to the detriment of the Northern states who are collecting more VAT based on population.

Here is my concern, Lagos state was deliberately made the commercial headquaters of the Nation to the detriment of other states the more reason it collects more taxes.

Practically, All the cars entering the country pays their tax to only Lagos state. Even the cars to be used in Rivers, Akwa Ibom, Bayelsa, Delta and Cross River states. Now this is not fair to these states as they have their own seaports but cars are not entering them, the taxes they are supposed to get as a state goes to Lagos state.

Also, Telecom companies pay their VAT in Lagos because their headquaters are located in Lagos, If this new bill is passed, that is no longer fair to all other states where the Telcom companies operate. Telcom companies should now start paying VAT to each state they operate as you can no longer rob Peter to pay Paul.

Oil companies have their headquaters located in Lagos while they operate in different states especially in the Niger Delta. This will no longer be fair if the bill is passed becaused those states where the oil companies operate will start demanding that the oil companies pay thier VAT in those states they operate.

The truth is this bill if passed, is seriously going to open litany of issues which I dont think at the moment the bill captured or resolved it.

Another worrisome dimension, this may prompt the oil producing states to start demanding for 60% of the oil revenues from their respective states, once this happens, chaos will reign supreme in the country.

Most you are just educated illiterate honestly.

So duties paid on cars is VAT, oil companies tax is VAT??

Like do you know the meaning of VAT??

If you are an undergraduate or a graduate you are a disgrace to Nigeria education system.

Hmmmm.

They are even telling him to fire the gun.

ycat:
Thanks, the translation almost got it all except a few.

From what I'm hearing, the pay is 5k a day for weeding but no Yoruba would take it up for even 10k per day. Also security guard, what's going on? I thought there was nothing at all for people to do, not knowing that there are jobs people will never do even if they are hungry.

You are very wrong.

All you need to do is go to any bus stop and offer this job with a loud speaker and see what happens next.

People have been scam many times with this job offers that why is hard to see anyone take it online.

Wizkhalifa2:
any issues?

Working perfectly.

You will test and inspect it to your satisfaction.

Samantha125:
Then there's no need for me to continue with this discussion because you've already admitted that you have issues with women.

You even sound aggressive and cursing.

Reverse psychology and always playing the victim as expected.
