[quote author= post=75578757]Smh!

In very developed nation, Government place taxes on EVERYTHING, as in EVERYTHING, apart from food.
You can't go to the store and see a price tag on something for (example #1000) and expect to pay exactly #1000 for the stuff, you have to pay tax on it.
But people that are not enlightened will never know that!
And that is for the citizen, not even the big companies
Good to know we still have enlightened youths on this forum.
You've said it all bro.
God bless you.
Oan.....[/quote]That's why when I read comments on Nairaland, which is dominated by under 40s I sometimes feel so sad for this country. Leaders of tomorrow ko, leaders of yesterday ni. Many of them know next to nothing and just spew gibberish when it comes to national issues.

Imagine People blaming Buhari for the performance of DISCOs (Ikeja Electric, BEDC) etc that Buhari's government should have sold the companies to the owners because they're incompetent. I looked at the comments and SMH.

Jonathan privatized the power sector on November 1, 2013 and sold the GENCOs and DISCOs to their friends who have no idea of how to run the business. Imagine that the Almighty Barth Nnaji owns a power plant in Osisioma in Abia State called Geometric Power Plant. It could not function, until Fashola came and resolved a matter that started under GEJ.

Its ignorance that's killing Nigeria and nothing more. We have too many silly people making comments on issues they know nothing about

gbaskiboy:
Government is looking for more ways to milk Nigerian businesses to the last drop through heavy taxation and you are begging to evade tax. Kolewerk! APC needs to recover all amount spent during campign

Chai

This is really pathetic and show your very poor understanding of issues

dominique:
Kolewerk!
The government is busy looking for more ways to milk the masses dry, Osinbajo even suggested increasing VAT. Ain't no business getting any tax break anytime soon.

I believe you should be more enlightened than this. No nation survive without good tax system. Hotel and consumption tax are part of areas where government make money. Google how much they now charge in Dubai(UAE) New Zealand and other developed country.

Get educated. Taxing hotel and leisure houses like clubs, lounges is a good way of making money by government around the world and not milking anyone

No way. Those hotelier makes billions in profit annually. Has anyone ever wondered that despite the so called 'hardships' hotels keep springing up? Because the business is thriving well. We have more hotels now under Buhari than we have 4 years ago.
Someone told me that on Friday nights, almost all hotels in Benin City Edo state are fully booked, by perverts, business men/women are leisure lovers

Dollyak:
Your comment about US high mortality rate is grossly untrue btw.

Hence why you need a health visitor and a nurse to keep track of the changes in your body.

Something as common as high blood pressures is enough to kill the mum.

A lot of people who haven't gone beyond their villages of moved closer to MMIA before, talkless of traveling abroad would come online and give false stat about countries they know little about.

Its madness

softandmoist:
Please no one should call her Emere o.

More like the guy looks yahoo to me and anything is possible
1. The girl may have died as a result of complications after birth of the baby. Very possible
2. Yes, science and the law may say there's nothing like 'juju' or spiritual attack. Its a big lie, there are physical and metaphysical in our present world

Stocking:
Ipobians you mean

Definitely, and such should be treated as act of violence and intimidation. You can support anyone

He doesn't need to disable comments.

Davido is an open PDP supporter
Olamide is 100 APC
K1 is 100 APC
LeBron James supported H. Clinton
Kanye West supported Trump.

All those insulting you for what you believe in are low lives and big time hypocrites

whirlwind7:
True. Politicians do insult each other. However, the simple question Reno asked was, how many of his northern brethren has Buhari insulted?
Also true that OBJ does insult other politicians. This still boils down to the same question: How many northern politicians insult their own the way we do down south?
Yet we claim to be more civilized and sophisticated than them.
As Reno rightly observed; no northerner would insult his tribesman over a southern politician. Think about it.

Emm...what brought Mr Trump into this?

Check your facts very well and revert back about northerners. Buhari may not insult, but northerners do.
Let me hello you out. Has El rufai a northern insulted anyone before?

afroniger:

Politicians are known for insult
Almighty Donald Trump is even the worst when it comes to insulting opposition. Trump insult FBI officials

BTW, the OBJ he's trying to defend unsolicited is a master of insulting people and name calling

So True

NigeriaIsDoomed:
I am not doomed, it is Nigeria that is doomed.
Atiku and Buhari are all evil however Atiku is the lesser of two evils.
Atiku will win and mothing will happen.

What are you doing in a doomed Nigeria?

NigeriaIsDoomed:
Next president of Nigeria. If Atiku no win make I die before next month.
Although Buhari will try to rig, he will never come back as the president of Nigeria.
It is what will happen.

You're already doomed, judging by your Nairaland handle

hisexcellency34:
Take it or leave it, Seyi Tinubu is the next governor of Lagos after Sanwoolu

That would be disastrous

Truth be told, whether we admit it or not, Lagos State is under a siege. This is a fact from a Lagosian and an APC apologist.
This siege sometimes has brought positive result, however it has a terrible repercussion that mean there should be check and balance.
From 1999 to 2019, same party or same persons have been in Charge of Lagos State, sequel to taking over power from Brig General Buba Marwa on 29th May, 1999

There are some dangerous pattern that we really need to challenge and criticize.

BAT was the Governor of Lagos State from 1999 to 2007 and within 8 years he had 3 Deputy Governors. Not sure any state in Nigeria since 1999 has experienced such.

The LAHA led by my man Dr Olorunimbe Mamora impeached Senator Koforola Bucknor in 2002 https://allafrica.com/stories/200212170698.html
The LAHA led by Ikuforiji impeached Senator Femi Pedro in 2007, later the court overturned the impeachment years after they both left office.
in 2007 BAT appointed another Deputy Governor https://allafrica.com/stories/200705110060.html

BRF was the governor of Lagos State between 2007 to 2015. in year 2009/2010 he was almost impeached by the same LAHA lead by Ikuforiji and second term ticket withdrawn. https://www.thenigerianvoice.com/news/1701/fashola-risks-impeachment-as-he-digs-into-bola-tinubus-n2.html
Since the plot failed owing to Fashola's popularity, they had to sacrifice Fashola's loyal supporter in Person of the Deputy Governor Sarah Adebisi Sosan and brought in another person loyal to the party Orelope Adefulire. https://allafrica.com/stories/201101210877.html
After Fashola left, the rift of 2009/2010 was echoed again that they tried to blackmail him in order not to get federal appointment by publishing contract cost. Whereas, it is an open secret that LASG never shows their budget spending to anyone. This started since 1999, as it is part of their policy, Just to make Fashola look bad. https://theeagleonline.com.ng/fashola-to-ambode-your-accusations-storm-in-a-tea-cup/
Days later when it became obvious the plot to stop BRF failed, BAT said any attack on BRF is an attack on him. http://www.nigerianmonitor.com/tinubu-breaks-silence-on-attacks-on-fashola-read-what-he-has-to-say/


Akinwunmi Ambode is the Governor of Lagos State from 2015 to February, 2019 (We don't know if they'll allow him state till May, 29th.)
First he lost the second term ticket, first of it's kind in Nigeria since 1999 where an incumbent would not be presented by the party for a second term. Now, the same LAHA wanted/want to impeach the Governor. https://punchng.com/just-in-lagos-assembly-threatens-to-impeach-ambode-summons-gov/

It took the intervention of one man stop the impeachment. https://www.vanguardngr.com/2019/02/how-tinubu-stopped-ambodes-impeachment/ How Tinubu stopped Ambode’s impeachment

Does it mean that Ambode is no longer guilty or was never guilty at all? I'm wondering how an someone who was alleged to have committed an offence all of a sudden is no longer guilty.

Lagos State my state is under siege and we must not allow this to continue

shortgun:
Nonsensical..... With APC Nigeria is on reverse in gear 7.

gear 7?

UncleJudax:
What about the SANs defending Buhari's certificate saga?

Saints abi

This same Wole is part of them defending him. Do you believe Buhari Has certificate?

Telling Buhari he's loyal, if he wins second term

BeeBeeOoh:


It's so unfortunate that he's among the angels that wants to change Nigeria's case after PDP's 16yrs misrule.




How time flies

Another pathetic deceit from your image. In 2011, there's nothing like APC and Buhari was in CPC then, hence your image is fake. PDP and lies

hisexcellency34:
Wole Olanipekun is a thief

He defended Yar adua in 2007 election, which was the worst in the history of Nigeria

PaChukwudi44:
Was he still crooked when he defended Buhari's fake certificate

Does Buhari have certificate?
