OK, next.

I made a post about Dangote's ulterior motive during his face off with Farouk. You people ate me raw.

Dangote was reducing the price of Pms, fighting importation and competition just to gain monopoly.

Look at the little shege we are seeing

What would have happened if he had gained absolute monopoly.

Me thinks your logic is confused. We need more local production of petrol and less importation. Is Dangote importing fuel? Weren't contracts agreed a while ago for the fuel that is being delivered now?

Lol. Nigeria is truly a cruise without seatbelt.

So crude crosses $70 and immediately it’s ₦1,000/litre here, but when crude was below $60, did fuel ever come down? Dangote refinery is here, subsidy is gone, competition was supposed to help… yet na we still dey carry am for head.

At this point, marketers don’t even wait for increase to happen again, na forecast pricing we’re doing. Salary no dey increase, transport don double, food don triple, but fuel must always adjust.

Honestly, how is the average Nigerian supposed to survive this? People are already cutting meals, now transport and everything else will skyrocket again. Government should just come out and tell us the truth: there’s no plan. Because this one no be global market issue alone, na pure local wahala.

God help Nigeria, because Nigerians are tired. 😔

In addition the exchange rate has improved.

And so what? Busy body everywhere

The point here is clear to those who want to see clarity.

What is the longest period that the President has spent consecutively in Nigeria without travelling out?

ALLEGATIONS OF VICTIMISATION OF SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS IN RIVERS STATE

There is growing tension and unrest in Rivers State secondary schools following reports that some Principals, Vice Principals, Head Teachers, and their Deputies are being punished for allegedly supporting former Governor Nyesom Wike.

According to reports, several Principals perceived to be loyal to Wike have been transferred to schools with poor and unconducive working conditions, while others have reportedly been removed from their administrative positions and redeployed to classroom teaching duties after serving for many years as Principals or Vice Principals.

A source within the Rivers State Universal Basic Education Board (RSUBEB) alleged that officials were instructed to use any available excuse to demote or redeploy school administrators believed to be loyal to Wike. This development has generated widespread concern within the education sector.

One teacher from a secondary school in Port Harcourt appealed to the Nigerian Union of Teachers (NUT) to intervene and prevail on Governor Siminalayi Fubara to reverse the alleged directive. The teacher emphasized that not all affected administrators are political loyalists, stressing that many of them are career civil servants who have faithfully carried out their duties without violating any civil service rules.

Further investigations revealed that the Board allegedly relied on questionable grade-level justifications to demote some school heads. A source at the Board described the action as improper and contrary to civil service procedures, noting that it is wrong to remove a duly appointed school head or vice principal who has not been found guilty of any misconduct or breach of civil service regulations.

The source further questioned the rationale of asking a school administrator to vacate office and return to classroom teaching solely on the grounds that there are teachers senior in rank within the same school, despite the individual having been formally appointed to the position.

In view of these developments, stakeholders are calling on Governor Siminalayi Fubara to urgently look into the matter. Reports indicate that several affected administrators have refused to vacate their offices or hand over, insisting that due process must be followed.

Yawwnnnn

I said the same thing that the Christian genocide propaganda was an agenda being promoted by the IPOB terrorist group.
I have been vindicated once again.
Anyone can push any agenda in the US congress as long as you ar willing to pay US congressmen. They will sell your agenda to the US public and to rhe US president for thr right price. This is exactly how the Israelis have been buying the ears of US govt for decades.
It's basically bribery disguised as " lobbying ".
Fraud 101.

Tinubu is an IPOB member?

To GOD be the glory, may his WORD be revealed to them and may their spirit be strengthened.

May his soul RIP and may his name not be forgotten.

Those words make the song vulgar for kids to sing.

Isn't 'emilokan' based on 'agreement is agreement'?

We should be expection hostile reception on Wednesday because the North Africans have really suffered in the hands of Nigeria, especially within the last 1 year.

Libya was suspended by CAF after their poor treatment of Nigeria players.

Super Falcons of Nigeria beat Morocco in their backyard to win female AFCON final.

Tunisia was beaten by Nigeria in group stage of this AFCON

Algeria were eliminated out of the competition by Nigeria and Morocco will be eliminated too.

It remains Egypt, which I believe we are meeting in the final.

Arrogance is not good o. He that is wearing his armour should not boast like one taking it off.

That is a fine chic going by the face.

It's true to an extent.


Rich guys prefer bigger ass than breast while broke guys usually prefer bigger breast than ass.

False. Wealth has nothing to do with it.

Every man knows this study is false.

Peter Obi is a well known bigot..😁😁😁😁 He is also very desperate to be president even when he doesn't have what it takes to be one .
Perhaps , his best role is leading the infamous "headless mob " that have been threatening everybody to bow to their "messiah " . As things stand now , the Agulu Fraudster will be brutally defeated in the 2027 presidential elections...should any member of the headless mob decide to run amok , they will dealt with decisively...

BS

Emilokan wasnt?
Buhari wasnt?

I dont understand Reno's comments

Princedapace:
What solves problem is for politicians to stop looting, u hear? Not someone calling out the Bleep up by the same politicians. I dont understand u.

I stopped answering because I sensed the account might be trolling. When someone asks where Oyedele mentioned that high earning people will pay more tax, I know something is off. He or she is working off a set of assumptions.

Image123:
Personal income tax rate is 25% for anyone earning above 50million. It used to be 24% for anyone above 3.2million. Let me know the rates you refer to that's more. Thanks.

Kindly engage Oyedele so he can explain to you why high earners are paying more tax as he has often mentioned in his interviews.

Image123:
Actually, i know the rates, you don't seem to. Old rate was 24% and new rate is 25% if you earn above 50million. 50million is 23%. Old rate was 24% from above 3.2million.
You said "They pay a lot more under the new one than the old one." i was struggling to figure the lot more or oppressive rate you speak of. Kindly assist.

I will ignore the arrogance I am detecting in your post for the sake of having a civilised discussion.

Firstly you are the person who asked what the rates were

Secondly what ball park figure of salaries are you looking at? You think the persons I am referring to are earning 50m per year? I can confirm that people within a certain range are coughing up more monies under the new tax. The government has admitted this.

Thirdly the return on tax for Nigerians who pay their taxes is poor.

Image123:
Paying more doesn't mean oppressive. Can you share the rates and how much?

You don't know the rates and you are making the above statement. Nah...

Also paying more can mean oppressive especially when the return on tax paid is very poor.

Image123:
Still it's not tax. It's some bank collection if i remember. Like a post charge, which i don't agree it's necessary or should be up to 50naira.

True. I was very surprised to see that it is applied to POS payments.

Image123:
Kindly explain how the tax is oppressive for high income earners?

They pay a lot more under the new one than the old one.

Wike and his allies may win this battle but he will lose the war.

Image123:
That's not tax but some unnecessary stamp duty that has always existed

It appears it is not just on transfers but POS payments as well.

It said, “Therefore, the rent relief of N500,000 is so insignificant given the personal allowances that other countries offer their citizens. In the erstwhile Personal Income Tax Act (PITA), every individual taxpayer was entitled to 20 per cent of income plus the higher of N200,000 or one per cent of income.

The report recommended that “Since the tax bands and rates have been expanded, we suggest that the erstwhile consolidated personal allowance in the PITA be retained to promote voluntary compliance.”

And

The firm added, “It appears that the objective of these revisions is to ensure that low-income individuals are not taxed heavily. However, it is also not right that the tax payable by high-income earners should be oppressive. Finding the right balance is, therefore, critical.

I agree with these parts

We are overbeating this topic

erniok2:
Mu take is those that she should have sue those that helped her get the fake NYSC exempt certificate. That way, she clears her name of any involvement in the saga.

My understanding is that she did sue and won in court.

https://www.thecable.ng/kemi-adeosun-powerful-enemies-saw-nysc-certificate-saga-as-opportunity-to-force-me-out-of-office/

“No one resigned in finance but I did. Why did I resign? The day I resigned I went to go and see the president. I said, ‘Mr President, I need to go but I will go to court to clear my name’.

“He said, ‘I absolutely support you. Because these names are leased for our children and grandchildren, right? They are going to inherit them’.

“And then you destroy your name because you want to stay as minister. For what?

“I sued the federal government. You can’t be suing the government and staying in the government. You can’t. You have to go. I think it is the right thing to do.”

Is anyone denying that they are aware government agencies have issued fake documents to people? Kemi's defence is that government issued her a fake document. I wonder why someone didn't protect her then before she resigned. Maybe she had refused to play ball with the person.

I do not know the full truth about Kemi. However the woman I have heard talk in person doesn't strike me like someone who would fake a certificate.

If she did do so, then she is a damn good actress and should be punished fully according to the law.

God bless USA

Tinubu would have faced this style of extradition if not that he corporated

To those shouting sovereignty should understand that USA doesn't care as long as what they do is to national interest

This is what APC were requesting the US do to GEJ back in the days ... This is unreal.

This one is incomplete story. First of all what did she buy? Where did she buy it?
