Thank u 🙏.

OredoPikin2:
Which governor?
Na my governor remove subsidy for fuel?
Na my governor make school fees expensive?

If u want me to blame my governor, allow my state to control it resources
Then we can shift the blames to governor

You be real Oredo pikin, make I no banter with person like yourself, nobody dey force u, if u like no go find work, start to pay taxes on your income.

Adieu.

Why should I pay 25 percent of my income as a freelancer who sourced projects abroad?

If I made 20m last year and didnt pay income tax but paid all other rediculous taxes, and spent 4m on home generator fueling, repair and electricity because my house needs light, now excluding the fueling for work place. Then next year, Tinubu takes about 5m of my income as tax. He has reduced my purchasing power, what now happens to the 4m I spent on fueling and generator at home? Does he have plan to allow me deduct such expenses since govt is supposed to provide me with electricity? we arent talking about fueling for business place, most homes run fuel for over 14 hours daily aside their business place fueling o.
If Tinubu takes about 5m from my 20m, I am left with 15m. This means I cant be able to handle the stuff I was able to handle with my 20m earning. If he took 5m and provided me with electricity which means I wont need to spend such to get light, that is fair. Now, there are other stuff. He has reduced my purchasing power drastically. the tax law is fraudulenet. Also, why sign agreement with France without approval from National assembly. Who does that? And why cant he publish the details of the contract? He signed contract with another conuntry and we are to pay for it but we dont know the contract. Omo, una dey support rubbish o. God forbid, I cant be a data boy. U want to tax me like developed country but I dont enjoy anything the developed countries enjoy. WTF is wrong with u all?
U should be talking about 2 percent income tax and no tax on foreign sourced income until you have a solid public infrastructure that the foriegn sourced income earners can enjoy. I just finished fixing my car tyres again. I fix it almost 7 times in a month becus of bad roads. Omo, una dey support rubbish.

Man, me I made well over a 100 million Naira this year, I do not need to write a long epistle to explain myself.

Please go & pay your taxes accordingly, it is your civic duty.

They looted everything and want to collect from us to loot again

Go ask your Governor wetin e do with your tax money?

reddingtonblack:
Alol ! Tell it illogical or its unreasonable to dodge a Tax that you and i know This rogues will eventually loot from govt purse

I see people like you wont rush to Cite Uk US ... they dont pay this Tax out of patrotism they pay because they see the ripple effect across .. good road,health and welfare packages accessible to the needy

You want me to Pay Tax .... one Yahaya bello or Farouk will just divert into swiss account or buy one thousand houses ... Money i know will never be account

When Tinubu removed subsidy, So me Men came Tv speakin grammar, claiming harvard oxford degree with Phd ... today ask them howfar, Tinubu will reply i have given the money to your Governor ... is it not frustrating all that sacrifice for Nothing

I wanna take a Bet by end of another 2yrs they will collect this Tax nothing will change .. infact they will be proposing maybe Nigeria should pay for Air they breath everyday .. what we have are criminal entities at the elms of Affair

No, nobody likes paying taxes, that is why the rich carry their money to tax havens, if u don’t pay your taxes in the countries u cited, the UK, & USA u will go to prison.

That is why u people are crying about any amendments about this law passed, u don’t want to pay your taxes, but expect not to go to prison for it.

The government has said add it to the law, if u don’t pay your tax, u go to prison like it is in the countries that u cited i.e. The USA, & The U.K., una start to shout fraud, we no gree.

casualobserver:
He who is bereft of reasoning is he who believes any side of any story without fact checking.

Have you checked the gazetted law to see if the controversial claims are there?

I have checked the official gazette. There is no such provision in section 42

See below

Ok, what is fraudulent about what u posted?

Please be specific.

Joymide22:
I see some people hailing the tax bill, You people are the reason Nigeria will not be better in 100years time, don't worry it will touch your children and generations also,

The same government that can not account for the little tax been collected already wants to collect larger tax and you are hailing with pleasure (No light, no good roads, no health facilities) NO BASICS OF LIFE, We are treated like slaves and animals in our our lands by these greedy politicians and you social media warriors come here to support nonsense?...You all won't die well

Na people like u wey no dey pay tax, go always complain pass, go ask your state government what they did with the tax they generated, then come back & tell us.

SmartyPants:
Instead of wasting words abusing the man, it would have been much cleverer of you to explain how he spoke from both sides of the mouth. But you didn't because we both know you didn't even understand a word of what that man said. Did you? Lol.

Don’t mind that aworatak.

mycar:
As usual, attack the victim and cheer the oppressor. What happens to be the change that you want from others. Have they accounted for the little ones that have been entrusted to their hands.

Some people just follow follow like Zombies because of rhetoric, OK, help aworatak explain what is fraudulent about the law?

okoloto:
Dangote is simply using his power and connection to exploit Nigerians.
If you make more money exporting, why not concentrate on exporting and allow others to import. Farouk resigned because he can't fight dangote. Nigerians cement is one of the overpriced locally. And soon same will be to refined products.

Some people just sit on the wall, & assume nonsense in their fickle minded imagination.

Freshandfitpod:
By the time tinubu finish dealing with this country everybody eye go don clear. Tinubu plan is to end Nigeria and sell it on temu before 2027.

What a lazy man’s excuse, Tinubu indeed.

discusant:
Atiku Abubakar and Vote buying. Using funds gotten from Nigeria to buy Nigeria's voters.. a most primitive and fraudulent political system.

How did Gringory Obi run away from the Pdp, & within a week became the LP’s presidential candidate?

U think na with mouth abi? Don’t know why Nigerians in their self righteous hypocrisy keep deceiving themselves in this animal house of jagajaga.

dederocs:
Absolutely, these selfish representatives are representing themselves, they forget they are there to represent Nigerians and the people's interests. They forget they are representatives of the people in power. Shame on them, they rather allow the perpetuation of the criminality in the electoral system, such as vote buying because they benefit from it.

They are representing u, no excuses, unless u are not a Nigerian? that is why the green chamber is called the House of Representatives.

They are speaking on your behalf, u cannot blame other people for your own actions.

Truthissupreme:
Talk is cheap

Tinubu have found this out himself

It takes strategy and force to fry evil men like tinubu in their own stew

As at today, if na whining you still dey, forget it

If u must say, least you can do is say something that makes sense.

Everything Tinubu, is he your God?

Haba.

aworatak:
This man is not only talking from both sides of the mouth, he is also insincere and bereft of reasoning.
I pity the average Nigerians should this fraudulent document called tax law take effect next year.

Over to you the data boys, suffering and smiling gang.

What is fraudulent about it? It is a known fact that human beings hate change, people like yourself who love the status quo, & add no benefit to society, speaking with both sides of your mouth making up excuses because u do not want to live up to your statutory obligation of paying your taxes.

ogododo:
The presidency on Monday weighed in on the controversy trailing the new tax laws scheduled to take effect on January 1 in the country.

This comes as former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, and several civil society organisations called for the suspension of the implementation of the laws.

A member of the House of Representatives, Abdulsamad Dasuki, recently raised concerns about what he described as discrepancies between tax laws passed by the National Assembly and the versions subsequently gazetted and made available to the public.

Dasuku argued that his legislative rights had been breached because the content of the gazetted tax laws did not reflect what lawmakers debated and approved on the floor of the House.

But speaking on Channels Television’s Morning Brief, the Chairman of the Presidential Fiscal Policy and Tax Reforms Committee, Taiwo Oyedele, said what has been circulating in the media was fake.

“Before you can say there is a difference between what was gazette and what was passed, we have what has not been gazette. We don’t have what was passed,” he said.

“The official harmonised bills certified by the clerk, which the National Assembly sent to the President, we don’t have a copy to compare. Only the lawmakers can say authoritatively what we sent.

“It should be the House of Representatives or Senate version. It should be the harmonised version certified by the clerk. Even me, I cannot say that I have it. I only have what was presented to Mr President to sign.”

Oyedele stated that he reached out to the House of Representatives Committee regarding a particular Section 41 (, which states, “You have to pay a deposit of 20 per cent.”

He noted that the response given by the committee was that its members had not met on the issue.

“I know that particular provision is not in the final gazette, but it was in the draft gazette. Some people decided that they should write the report of the committee before the committee had met, and it had circulated everywhere.


“What is out there in the media did not come from the committee set up by the House of Representatives. I think we should allow them do the investigation,” Oyedele added.

President Bola Tinubu signed the four tax reform bills into law, marking what the government has described as the most significant overhaul of the country’s tax system in decades.

The tax reform laws, which faced stiff opposition from federal lawmakers from the northern part of the country before their passage, are scheduled to take effect on January 1, 2026.

The laws include the Nigeria Tax Act, the Nigeria Tax Administration Act, the Nigeria Revenue Service (Establishment) Act, and the Joint Revenue Board (Establishment) Act, all operating under a single authority, the Nigeria Revenue Service.

According to the Federal Government, the reforms are designed to simplify tax compliance, expand the tax base, eliminate overlapping taxes, and modernise revenue collection across federal, state, and local governments.

From my observation, only criminal minded tax dodgers, & violators will be concerned about any purported amendments.

Or the plain ignorant people that will wail just for wailing 😭 sake.

UzorIyke:
All of them there na runaway abi,hear yourself Atiku na runaway, Obi na runaway, David Mark na runaway abi, even if they're runaway politicians from the APC, currently they're opposition to the present government, okay.
So what he(Tinubu) will do is to be suppressing them with court orders from left and right, if APC was handled that way in 2015 did you think that they will have the chance to win that 2015 general election.
Please with all due respect not because of u are in support of the current government will make you to be selling the truth or to be behaving like nothing wrong is happening when everything out there is wrong itself, me I'm in support of many policies introduced by PBAT but I won't sell my soul to the devil because of that or to be stupidly agreeing everything seen happening in the government because im a supporter of the president, no one is perfect so everyone has his or her flaws. Buy the truth and sell it not.

Validated I like that, All Desperate Criminals (ADC).

Runaway APC members that served as ministers 2015-2023 under your tormentor President Buhari, & the ones Terrible Nyesom Wike pursued from The Pdp are who u are hailing as opposition?

You try, cut your nose to spite your ears, your suffer never even start yet.

DatNiggaDaz:


See this group of Laptops. These were thesame set that chanted sai darling daddy from back to back supporting all his failed policies for 8yrs only to call him a failure and blame him because of a kinsman with a fake certificate.

They have gone back to square 1, supporting Tinubu's failures, rascalities and illegalities thesame they supported and defended darling daddy

From my observation, only criminal minded tax dodgers, & violators will be concerned about any purported amendments.

Or the plain ignorant people that will wail just for wailing 😭 sake.

Empty Barrels, basket mouths, na who talk pass to them, na em be the winner.

AMINDA:
Natasha is still swinging while Fubara folded like Phil Folden. She's got balls of steel. SP might be lynched by his people if he attempts to go home without police excorts.

Folded like Phil Folden? quite obvious u do not know what u are talking about, next time use another analogy.

grandstar:
He would be a big influence but not that powerful. He has the money to make kings and Queens.

Unfortunately for him, the national space is way bigger than the Southwest and the people aren't Yoruba.

APC in Edo state was a challenge, though it is in the Southwest. They do not beckon to Tinubu. Even Kwara which is majority Yoruba don't seem loyal to Tinubu.

Stop yapping nonsense, Edo state is in the Mid West, not the South West.

maasoap:
I guess nukes are exclusive rights of way some countries, right? Some people's mentality and their asslicking are baffling.

The mentality of peeps like empresa dey baffle person.

Oyibo is good, black or brown is bad, Jesus & em angels na oyibo, Satan & em angels na black man.

U know them very well.

hatchy:
Even if they seek for support from another country, it's their right. It is called alliance for a reason. You build alliance with someone who can assist you in times of need, especially in conflicts.

Iran built his own alliance with China, Russia, N.Korea. They should also run to them for help during conflicts to support with weapons and logistics. Unfortunately all her allies are fake. They disappears when they're needed.

Israel will always meet the US for assistance because they are their greatest allies in the whole world and there's nothing wrong in doing that.

Go and get your own, short and simple.

Just like NATO abi, 33 countries go form alliance because them dey fear Russia?

Oyibos na cowards, them dey move like pack of wolves, black man forever suffering & subservient because of divide & rule based on ignorance, so I no too blame u.

The great Fela Kuti best said it, black man know yourself, one veto vote for the United Nations is equal to 99, or more, which kind sense be that?

owobokiri:
I guess Okotie Eboh was from the NPC and not of the NCNC..,Right?

Kwantiniu with your barefaced lies..
What do you know?
You that believe that Aguiyi Ironsi was part of the coup.
You that argeu that it was not Aguiyi Ironsi that stopped the coup.
You that believe that igbos started the war by firing the first shot, even when every independent assessment points to the opposite.
You that doesn't even acknowledge the Yoruba quantity in the rank and file of the coupist..
You that will hide Awolowos FIRST COUP of 1963 and use your propaganda machinery to tag the 1966 coup as the "first coup by the igbos"!

Like I said, do what you have to do to eat.., there is a Reno "anywhere belle face" Omokri in all of you.. But facts can't been buried while we are around..

If not hypocrisy, but when Reno Omokri was accusing Tinubu upandan leading up to the general election of 2023 you were praising him, all of a sudden u switched like a bic cigarette lighter, what happened?

When Nyesom Wike was against the APC & Buhari for 8 years as governor, never attended any meeting with President Buhari he was your hero, now today, u detest that same Wike that u once idolized, what happened?
