How do you know that the statement from the Lagos state official is true?
How
Have you heard the saying that:






Why can't you ask the question of where the aloku scrap metal trains Fashola spent borrowed $1 billion on in Toronto since 2011 are?
Why is that so difficult for you to ask?

My first paragraph was that FG unexpectedly failed to guarantee one of the tranche of loan, that is not a one sided story.
That messed up Lasg effort /plan on the light rail.

Was Lagos state aligned with the centre when Jonathan approved $1 billion World Bank loan for this same project?
Was it

FG unexpectedly withheld approval to guaranteee one of the tranche of the loan , and the project suffered for it

then look at this

“It took us four and half years to get approval for the project. It took us another four years to get them to discuss the technicality of the project with us.

This is terribly bad !, shame on FG playing childish politics on such a worthwhile development

Benefits of Lagos state aligning party wise with the centre.

Ambode is very fortunate, and he must maximise the benefits.

Buhari will want to redeem his image also on the railway issue, after he was accused of scuttling the Lagos metro line project by jakande in 1984.

I see he has done lots of redemption in the last 5 months

Nice


Some fools will be beefing now. Kworrect ibo girl

If we harness the 2013 and 2015 u 17 talents properly, Nigeria can win the 2022 world cup. These 2015 set of boys are not far from 17 years. They should be within 18-20 yrs age bracket, which is fair enough.

Oh my ! Is this the aftermath of brainwashing

I really pity you. That Kunu guy is in for a long ride, if ever he makes it out of detention alive , he will be very very lucky

The Above was my submission 2 days after he was arrested.

chukwudi44:
Though the judgement would be appealed,they better be careful trying to foist a muslim as a Governor in a state like Taraba!!

A fool at 44 is a fool forever

5 million ? Are these biafraudist so daft?

He is playing to the gallery, while there is nothing really wrong if a governor plays to the gallery, it is disaster if there are no commensurate OUTPUTS. He needs to commission projects that will touch the lives of the people.

Fayose is like the village school maths teacher, who maths students like to stay in his class, because he will make them laugh from his funny jokes in class, that is not bad, but the problem is Fayose, the village school maths teacher sucks at the maths he is primarily meant to impart on his students.

Omooba77:
Dont forget that part of the money generated are used for salaries and other statutory obligations

Salaries are typically accounted for in previous FG budget, maybe some statutory obligations are unaccounted for.

Flets:
I don't do hearsay... put the numbers down. Crude drives 70% of our budget, the remaining 30% is where those IGRs come in.

Forget about loopholes, you cant plug loopholes for non-existent funds.

The emboldened is your fallacy, it is NOT CAST IN STONE that crude must drive 70% of our budget.

Our Revenue Will Double with RIMS Introduction, Says NPA Boss

11 Sep 2015 http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/our-revenue-will-double-with-rims-introduction-says-npa-boss/219917/

The Managing Director of Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA), Habib Abdullahi has said revenue generated revenue is set to double in the months ahead following the introduction of “Integrated Revenue Invoicing Management System (RIMS)” by the Authority.

RIMS, was launched week at an impressive ceremony, which attracted several stakeholders in the maritime industry.

The NPA boss said the introduction of RIMS was aimed at addressing the rot in the ports operations and blocking revenue leakages in the system.

Abdullahi told THISDAY in Lagos that apart from blocking the revenue leakages, going by the agency’s projections, its generated revenue would double in 2016 .

According to him, this would not only boost the nation's economy but would meet financial expectations of the federal government in the months ahead.

NNPC + NLNG + NPA+ NCS +NIMASA +FIRS +CBN are the top revenue generating agencies and you will be surprised how much can be made from each of them.

[size=16pt]FIRS Generates N4.69tn Revenue in 2014[/size]

The Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) said on Thursday that it generated N4.69 trillion from taxes for the federal government in 2014.

FIRS said in its Quarterly Revenue Report issued in Abuja that the figure surpassed its target for the year by about N400 billion. The report showed that the 2014 revenue was about N106 billion less than that of 2013, which stood at N4.80 trillion.

According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), the revenue was derived from petroleum profit and non-oil taxes, including income tax, gas income, capital gain tax, stamp duty and Value Added Tax (VAT).

The report also indicated that N2.45 trillion, representing 52.96 per cent, was collected from petroleum profit tax while N2.24 trillion, representing 47.04 per cent, was collected from non-oil taxes during the period.

A breakdown of the total collection showed that company income tax contributed N1.18 trillion; N10.83 billion from gas income; N2.59 billion from capital gain tax and N10.94 billion from stamp duty.

The VAT, comprising Nigeria Customs Service Import VAT and Non-Import VAT, according to the period, contributed N802.95 billion of the total non-oil taxes collection during the period.

The report also said that other non-oil taxes collected were Education Tax, N189.61 billion; N53.28 billion from Consolidated Account and N9.91 billion from National Information Technology Development Fund (NITDEF) levy.

The report further showed that N1.05 trillion was collected in the first quarter while N1.45 trillion was collected in the second quarter. It also indicated that N1.19 trillion was collected in the third quarter and N1 trillion was collected in the fourth quarter.

This government should be reminded that elections are over. Enough of these noises as reality have set in already.

Lets do some simple mathematics.
Nigeria's total crude production currently hovers at 2M barrel per day, but I will assume 2.5M barrel for sake of optimism
Crude oil sells at slightly above $40/ barrel but I will assume $45/ barrel
Most JV agreements with Oil corporations stands at an average of 60% for Nigerian govt.
Cost of production of oil for most companies stand at almost 50% but I will assume 30% (optimist case) and then 70% profit
Only about 52% of total earnings goes to the FG, the remaining goes to state allocations and host state derivation
Assuming an exchange rate 200 naira per dollar and 365 days a year

Federal Government can make approximately 1.8 trillion naira from crude sales for 2016 optimally. Details below
so 2.5Million x $45 x 60% x 70% x 52% x 200 x 365 = 1.8 Trillion Naira

Historically, crude has formed about 70% of our budgets.... following same logic, total budget can only be 2.6 trillion Naira (1.8Trillion/ 70%)

Even if we increase taxes, collapse all tax and duty exemptions and without any diversification efforts by the current government, we will be lucky to add another 1trillion the 2.6 trillion to make it a maximum of 3.6 trillion.

So realistically speaking, 8 trillion FG budget is impossible for 2016. Propagandically speaking, APC govt have said it and they believe their zombies will believe it.

You underestimate revenues from FIRS, NPA, Customs, Immigration, , those 4 agencies alone can easily rake in nothing less than 6 thrillion/annum. Put in mind that FG makes over 9 thrillion Naira in the yesteryears as total revenue, from which it keeps 52%, over 4.5 thrillion .
Customs in 2015 had a target of 944 billion naira, if loopholes are plugged, it will easily make over 1 thrillion naira in 2016, Single treasury account will also plug loopholes with many FG agencies.

wonderful, roughly 3 thrillion extra is no joke, i believe if Government tackle the loop holes it can finance the budget.

ChappyChase:
Did someone hear that commentator. Call us the youngest side in the tournament?

Oh, Not tonite again

Ladipodeal:
Mtn fine trillion naira

1 thrillion is 1000 billion. Customs pland revenue for the year is 944 billion. That is 94% of mtn fine.

Ladipodeal:
Mtn fine far above 944 million target Federal government gave to Nigeria Custom for year 2015.

Mtn don enter one chance..... Dre is God oooooo

It is not far above, the target for customs is 944 billion, not 944 million.

Nnemuka:
Ok lets continue fasting and praying abi?
smh



May/June and last i checked the dullard has assumed office then. i expected you to know what q2 is but just like your Nepa bill certificate president you cant tell.

May/June is not quarter 2. There are 3 months in a quarter as used in this context.

Quarter 2 is APRIL MAY JUNE. If i indulge you in your shallowness, your supposed hero was in charge for 2 out of the 3 months.

I think it is pointless mourning over the failure of GEJ at the polls 7 months after, and childishly or to put it more bluntly "foolishly" wants the currently administration to fail so as to bask in vain glory. . Things was going to be tough whoever was on seat in 2015.

Nnemuka:
Which is better, to wail and things get better, or to keep mute and watch things get worse?

I will continue wailing until the dullard wakes up from slumber. If nothing is done now, our unborn children will suffer terrible things so nna allow me to wail.

What range of month is Quarter 2 ?

igboboy3:
She is not pregnant.

That is how Deltan brides in that axis dress during traditional weddings

It is meant to indicate fertility


See here: [url]unfriedgarri.[/url]

I guessed as much !
I think GEJ's daughter did a similar thing during her wedding

icebebe:
Lmao!! Reminds me of an SU in school caught watching porn

hahaha I actually caught one some weeks back, her BBM feeds gave her out.

that is like 3 months allocation for FG +SG +Local government

dayojags10:
do you guys even know Eden hazard and Christian benteke were at that same 2007 tournament for belgium?, look at them today. I can't even remember the last time I saw any of those boys t represented us that same year on TV

Such is life, Nigerian players not breaking in to the world stage is not necessarily caused by Age cheating, infact i dont think age cheating is the primary reason, In my opinion, the countrys economy is the primary reason, as it tends to affect the country's league which should manage and nurture the boys. Imagine a 17 year old guy signed to Nigeria Premier league team where the training kits is mediocre, where he is barely paid his salary, his feeding regime is poor, e.t.c such a player football development is gradually getting stunted, and losing morale, he is surrounded by very poor family members who look up to him, and if any overseas career oppotunity comes, he signs hastily and many a times makes wrong choices .

Someone can not manage loss. That your hero lost an election does not mean you turn yourself to a public nuisance. Even GEJ your hero who doesnt know you exist, or even care to know has moved on.

It seems the baba na old soldier.

A slap from a blind old man that sent the woman to hospital is better imagined

I doubt that.

No one makes mistake with spelling their name. Your name on the headline is wrong.

This people with cheap and very daft propaganda ehhhhh

pressures being exerted on Nnamdi Kanu, leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), and Director of Radio Biafra, to compromise the Biafran struggle. The Biafrans had become aware of the report of endless stream of visitors – prominent Northern Nigerians – visiting Kanu in detention with the sole purpose of making him to jettison the struggle for Biafra’s independence. They have been visiting him with juicy offer, of positions in government and money

Is this not very laughable? One has to be an imbeccilee to believe this shiit up.

Smile4mee01:
I am a little depressed now. i came here to seek counsel. i am 31 yr old male, works in a bank. have my own apartment and car, Quite comfortable. i am not and never have been in a very serious relationship. the few ones i tried never just works out. most times the ladies dont measure up, the few ones that did measure up were so much in a hurry to marry (maybe because they were older than i was sha)

my friends too wonder, they say with my status ladies should be all over me. they say i dont take them serious. i am not gay and wil never be.

i agree my job leaves me little room to go out because i work almost every day. in fact in a whole month i have just 2 free weekends. 2 days out of which i still go to work.

is there something i can do to be in a healthy relationship. i desire to have a balance.

Thanks in anticipation

I understand your plight , i suggest you try out the social media, but not dating sites. How about using facebook?

Just search facebook page of the friends of your friends of their friends friend for chics , Start with checking some of their photos, comments, educational background, estimated age, If you see what you like at least physically, send facebook friendship requests., weed of married or "in relationship with" from the pool you will send friend requests. They will accept, but not all, at least at the immediate. Then initiate conversations with no romantic tone, be economical with the truth when they ask how you knew them , you can say"i was searching out for a friend with your same surname bla bla,......." just gist ,and gist,......that way you get to know her, you can turn on the romantic tone, when you sense interest in her, and then you schedule a meeting.

Trust me, it works, it worked perfectly for my friend, who had a rich taste, and a somewhat narrow pool of quality of life partner. He is now happily married with the lady

That is why i like strong and intelligent individuals setting good benchmark. Dora Akunyili set a good benchmark, which means her successor will find it so difficulty to completely veer off the mark, as it will be clearly noticed by the populace if they do.

Ambode is under pressure and attack in Lagos today because of Fasholas benchmark.

Firefire:
How can revenue increase when the currently generated revenue are being diverted by the people in charge?

If revenue will increase, don't you know it is the ordinary Nigerians that will pay the increase ?

If FIRS increase its drive for compliance without first blocking all the present loopholes, you will see all businesses in Nigeria applying 5 percent VAT and the prices of goods and services will increase across the country which will then fuel hyperinflation.

The govt. should first address the issue of revenue diversion before thinking of making any attempt to increase Nigerians burden and suffering.

Shalom!

There is a new admin , i dont think Diezani is still min of petroleum, or Umaru Dikko is still customs boss. Yes Nigerians will account for the increase in revenue , but not just Nigerians or ordinary Nigerians ,it will also include who ever has anything to do with Nigeria. The NCC just fined MTN 1thrillion naira , i am certain MTN will pay at the very least a good fraction of that fine in to federation account. First bank and Ecobank were also fined for failing to comply with TSA, and you can bet they will all pay. Import Tarriff waiver on Rice to mostly government cronies got suspended e.t.c

This admin will surely block loopholes, the first 6 months of this admin runs out by November ending, i call it the honeymoon period, the Next 6 months thereafter will be a different tempo. It wont come easy no doubt, but the impact will be clearly visible by Middle of 2017, I can bet.
