You don't understand what taxation means. If after paying taxes, you still have to take care of the amenities that govt is supposed to provide for , then folks should not be taxed. Govt is a social contract and the political class is reneging on that contract and you are asking the other party (weakest bargainer) to fulfill its obligation?. There is no govt in the lives of these traders. They built their shops, pay rents, paid custom and vat duties, provided security, provided electricity, paid for clean and trash pick up etc and the govt is asking for taxes. FOR WHAT services? Would Fashola go against Dangote or Shell if they owe Lagos govt?

Kobojunkie:
Did you bother asking the kid why he was not in school at that time? Or is it that you just want your conscience spared of having to see such a kid during the hours between 8pm and 2 pm each work day?

Let me re-iterate, a ban is good but there are things that should come before a ban, to better help people adjust to changes. An example for those who are too fixated on how good this man is to them to see things objectively, the ban on generators that was proposed earlier this year. How is that ban working out so far?

Nigeria1//:
You people are a disgrace to nigeria. Look I am a southerner, and it is a shame they did what they did to Nuru ribadu. I have said before that nuru should resign and leave them alone. Nigeria can not be save. So catching thief na in nigeria is a bad.

So we prefer OLE, BARAWO to continue abi. what a shame. Nuru Ribadu cases is a lesson for all of you who believe they want to save nigeria. I can see why niger delta and others want to leave Nigeria. Ask yourself with their action , will it ever be better for nigeria,

Even Yar adua would NEVER have been president of Nigeria if not for NURU RIBADU. Yar adua own is position to Nuru Ribadu and el rufia, Not something over the internet.

jimmyjam:
it can never work be lagos state has no jurisdiction over national security issues by law, such issues can only be official from the FG, also fashola cannot enforce it because he has not control over police by law! shi ke na!

so fashola and the state legislative are only inviting qeury and possibly arrest from FG if they are to even try to pass such thing to law, nigeria is a federal republic not a democratic republic and long live the federal republic on nigeria. nigeria was created before lagos state, long live the federal republic!

shei u can see y somepeoplez veiwz are just space fillers!!!u can all see what this Dufus is rooting 4??until they JAM this guy off the road when they are blowing thier siren na em u go c this guy on top Sun newspaper with the head line, "I DINT DO ANYTHING,PLEASE HELP ME" , This guy has obviously been so oppressed in his life,to him its really his way of life

they say in the land of the blind;the one eyed man is king.yes we have had such a long period of bad rule that i fear we don't even know wot governance is. funny i also believe that fashola is a bit different butt who wont be? when ur party is not in national view.that said, can u remember a couple of months ago when thisday ran an expose n funds disbursement in lagos?it was alleged that the monies were outrageous n they couldnt be traced because of the secret posture of d lagos state govt n its ministries. also where is the findings of the 'murder' of innocent nigerians in ejigbo area by chaugory brothers'. the coy ran heavy equipments over a NNPC pipe n led to an inferno that claimed amongst its victims,nursery and pri school pupil n wot happened to them? that was the question thisday raised n how were they answered? they govt didnt respond even when the coy was traced to tinubu but began harassing thisday about their tax,revoked its land license and 'childishly'' returned the plaque given the previous year as the 'best' governor, vowing never to grant them interviews!!!!! hello,democrat indeed. i don't want to waste my energy on what we know,we as the future of nigeria must become political active and stop all these hypocrisy

FOLOS OR WETIN BE DAT UR NAME, dont blindly follow newspaper write ups.in this naija,with cheese i can make a newspaper write ur history backwards.ThisDay knew what it was doing when it made such allegations,it was just a coy to make the governor fall out with tinubu but it didnt work.On a real not, what da Bleep is a thisDAy awardna who get this day??how much is thisDAy worth??is it big enuff for its award not to be returned by the governor of lagos state??why make a fuss about a bloody editor who if i ask u now u dont even know his name unless u refer?if Fashola had held on to the crap,he and the AC would have had a face off definatly,then one PDP man(maybe obanikoro) would show up from somewhere n be the next gov'nor.we have seen faceoffs in the lagos state PDP,we have seen faceoff in lagos AC,we have seen it oyo state(which is still on till after the death of adedibu)which they still havnt been able to pull out of.ThisDAy was just a political tool,period.then please o,make this day show how up to dat they are on thier Tax sef

Poor cafe attendant like you. Anyway shal, I've got nothing to say to you. If you want attention, you'll get it but probably not from me. Anuofia

'Poor cafe attendant like you', what a pity,i laugh in spanish, people like u will never be able to even afford time in a cafe!!!as long as its not free no show!!
'I've got nothing to say to you', u never had and never will,u lack what it takes to speak back to people like me 'Dullard'[/font][/color]
'if you want attention', [color=#990000]attention from who?U?ur really making urself sound important,uv just posted 1 lousy text and the follow up sounded as dull as your supporter's text,u cant afford attention although its free, and let me put it this way, if i was vegeterian,ul definatly come to this world as salad but im really sorry ive lost my appertite!!ur a looser

chidichris:
we can't remain partial judges here just because we want to protect nigeria and nigerians.
when a group of 23 players won the olympic cup in 1996, we all shared the pleasure of saying; ýes nigerians are very good footballers". "
samuel peters has written our name with Gold on the boxing map so why are we shying away from responsibilities when it comes to what we do best - corruption.
the only thing that has taken over the totality of nigeria with its headquaters in the same seat of power - ASO ROCK.
assuming you are just coming back from any journey, a step into the MMA will reveal an atmosphere of corruption.
from MMA to any of ur choosen destination in lagos or nigeria as a whole, u must participate in one corrupt practice either delibrately or otherwise.
our roads are filled with policemen who are surposed to be our protectors but who suddenly turn into threats.
the roads and security represents the corruption levels.
i am afraid if the statement that is been attached to oprah was not made by a nigerian.
we are so corrupt that we are even afraid to say or accept the truth.

PurestBoy:
Peter is a typical bastard and disgrace to already disgraced Nigeria where nothing good last. Talk of education, politics, poverty, corruption, Obasanjo, Yaradull, Goodbadluck, Akala, Fashola, . These people should be made to face Vitalis.

hey,home boy, the guy is human,he dint do his homework well at all i agree but sometimes u win sometimes u dont(i bet it happens to u)!!free tha guy abeg, if e 2 pain u make u enter ring go face vitali naw,from ur statement it seems u are all mouth no action even a mic with no one speaking in2 it got more action than u do!!im not a core supporter of sam but abeg e don do.then as per ur list(Obasanjo, Yaradull, Goodbadluck, Akala,These people should be made to face Vitalis)theres some1 i helped u delete,figure it out 'dullestboy' n lets leave it that way.

@wilywily

you heard, and then you come onto a public forum to present like it's fact, shows your level of intelligence, aren't you just a plain "yorubahater'?

i second dat statement, the child (wilywily) is a retarded Willie

Mamajama:
if anyone is to be praise for arresting Bode Gorge it should be Ribadu.

the investigation commence under his administration, he just wasn't left to finish he job.

Waziri is getting all the credit now, but any smart individual will know detailed investigation takes time and can not be completed in a month with the complexity that we have in Nigeria

TPS360:
Good move by the EFCC, still waiting on the day Babaginda will be arrested by the EFCC,

grand jedi:
THE ARREST : The right step in the right direction.

PROBABILITY OF JUSTICE/RECOVERY OF FUNDS: Slim. However, we have to start somewhere. But one is hoping we don't stay @ this level of "arrest and eventual release without justice" for too long.

POSSIBILITY OF ARRESTING "AREMU" et al : Between 0% and 1%. . ._{more towards the former than the latter} And not in the present presidency.( IBB is still alive and well, SHONEKAN is still "chairmanning" boards, the ABACHA family still has some of the loot, ABDULSALAMI is still untouched).

Eziachi:
It's funny people that knew Monday Osumbor and Lawrence Anini (the famous robbers) said the same about them that they are nice people but it didn't stop them taking innocent lives, robbing people of the living. Who care what Bode Goerge is up to in his private moment, what we care about is what he is up to with our collective wealth.

toxnaija:
Sincerely,I don't want to say anything again on Fashola until next month when I arrive Europe on an academic break.You would be pleasantly surprised to learn about the sponsor and what I went through to get the sponsorship.I am being sponsored by a humble man who believes so much in turning around lives through education.The same man some of you are castigating.Some months back,he said Without education there wont be skills.without skills,there wont be jobs.without jobs,there wont be income.without income,there wont be poverty eradication.More gists on this would come in the newspapers and this thread.

awwww that's very nice.i like people like u jare.when u enter jand,send me TM LEWIN shirts o,i'll call u n give u ma shrirt size (just kiddin).use ur money wisely n come back n give ur people jobs,someone has givin u this opportunity,it would only be fair 4 u 2 open the doors for others.I would really love to hear about your experience sha,@ least i can guarantee u wont be like some men that used church funds 2 escape n they arnt even giving back to the church sef.Sorry TOX are u a guy or a babe sefjust curious,not trying 2 hurt ur ego but i tthink uz a babe, am i right
