Some companies have been shut by th
Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS
as it resumed its tax enforcement
exercise in Lagos, Abuja, Asaba and
Onitsha yesterday.
In Abuja, the FIRS team, led by
Chinazo Edeh, sealed off Urban
Shelter Limited, a property
development firm, located in the Wus
Zone 5 Area for allegedly owing N63
million in arrears of taxes
accumulated from 2008 to 2016.
Mohammed Sanni, Tax Liason Officer o
Urban Shelter, said the company has
submitted a payment plan which was
yet to be approved to FIRS. Edeh,
however, said the company must pay
at least 50 per cent of its tax
liabilities to avoid its premises
being sealed. The company was
subsequently sealed as the managers
could not make the payment.
In Lagos, the FIRS team, led by
Anita Erinne, shut the premises of
Venro Energy Limited, over a tax
debt of N29million as well as the
office of Enegas. Both firms are in
Ikoyi.
A woman, who attended to the team,
caused a mild drama, when she said
the company did not have money to
pay the N15million debt it owes.
Erinne told her to instruct staff
members to vacate their offices
within 10 minutes. The woman,
however, refused to vacate her own
office, telling FIRS officials that
they were being unfair. She
eventually agreed to leave her offic
and the company was shut.
In Asaba, FIRS sealed the premises
of Davnotch Nigeria Limited for
failure to meet its tax obligations
over four years. The team, led by
Ruth Mandeun, wielding a warrant of
distraint, ordered the staff members
to vacate the premises.
Between 2011 and 2015 Davnotch
allegedly owed N34.5million tax
arrears.
The few workers in the office made
unsuccessful attempts to contact the
managing director and top management
staff, who were absent during the
operation.

The Publicity Secretary of the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in
Ekiti State, Mr Jackson Adebayo, was
on Friday night attacked by three
armed men in Ado-Ekiti, the state
capital.
Narrating his experience on Saturday
after receiving treatment at a
private hospital, Jackson, whose hea
was smashed with gun butt, said he
was accosted by three armed men on
motorbike at Federal Housing Estate
area of the town at about 9pm on
Friday.
"I was going for a vigil in the
church when three armed men on a
motorbike accosted me. Two of them
came down with their guns and
started shooting sporadically. They
started smashing my head against the
hard asphalt on the road and the ma
on the bike ordered them to shoot
me, but the men said they should
leave me.
"I wouldn't describe it as a robber
case because apart from my phone an
tablet that they took, the money
they found when they ransacked my
pockets, was returned. Few days ago,
I issued a press release on the
purported trip of Mrs Aisha Buhari
to America on behalf of our party
and I started receiving threat calls
on my phones.
"The callers were threatening me to
leave the woman alone and few day
later, this happened. We are in a
democracy and we have the right to
speak as a party. If anybody thinks
by engaging in violence they can
silence us and our party, they are
mistaken. We are for the people and
the voice of the people is the voice
of God," he said.
Also commenting on the development,
the State Chairman of PDP, Mr
Gboyega Oguntuase, accused the
opposition All Progressives. Congres
(APC) of formenting violence in the
state.
"APC are known for eliminating those
against them. They killed no fewer
than 12 people when they were in
government here. From Chief Awolumat
who was killed in Omuo-Ekiti, to Ay
Jeje and Juliana Adewumi who were
killed in Erijiyan.
They also killed Foluso Ogundare in
Emure-Ekiti to Chief Omolafe Aderiye
that they killed in Ado-Ekiti, thei
stock in trade is murder of
opposition figures.
"Since they have started to go for
my executive and party members, we
are calling on the people of the
state and God to save us from their
hands. They have failed to alleviate
the economic woes in Nigeria and as
far as we are concerned, we are
committed to our goal of making
Ekiti a better place to live in and
we are for peace," he said.

Nobel Laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, on Thursday met behind closed doors with President Muhammadu Buhari.

The meeting which lasted about an hour was held inside the President’s office at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

Soyinka was accompanied by a public relations expert, Dr. Yomi Ogunbiyi.



The agenda of the meeting described as a private one was not made public and the Presidency did not issue any statement on it.

As he emerged from the President’s office after the meeting, the Nobel Laureate was visibly surprised to see State House correspondents who were already laying ambush for him in front of the Press Gallery.

“I didn’t come to see you people,” he said as he attempted to break through a barricade set up by the journalists.

When it became clear to him that the reporters would not relent, Soyinka said, “I came to discuss national and international matters, general matters, that’s all!”

When further probed about the details of the discussion, he said he would not divulge such.

Clearly not comfortable with press interview, Soyinka declared, “I will be holding a press conference in about a week. You can ask me any question then, but now, please I will just like to get away.”

With that the journalists made way for him to leave the premises.

WHY THEY ALWAYS WANTED ME OUT:
Since
the corrupt Speaker Yakubu Dogara
made the public comment that padding
is NOT an offense, read 1-27
1. The question on the lips of
Nigerians is why then did the same
Speaker Dogara said he "sacked" me
on the grounds of padding
allegations?
2. I have said repeatedly&wish to
restate that I did nothing wrong&I
committed no offense. I did not
abuse my office or corruptly enrich
myself.
3. In the 5 years I have been in
the House. The only reason why they
wanted me out is my independent-
mindedness, resistance to
corruption.
4. And my refusal to "play ball" on
abuse of office they
institutionalized
in House. They want to have someone
that can do their corrupt bidding.
5. Now that I have exposed the fact
that Speaker Dogara&3 others are the
padders, padding is no longer an
offense, Shame! Shame!!&shame!!!
6. As it stands today, these
corrupt elements have infiltrated
the House, making the institution a
hub of
systemic corruption
7. I repeat, there is massive
individual and institutional
corruption in the House of
Representatives aided and abetted by
Speaker Dogara.
8. And all Nigerians have a
responsibility to avail themselves
of
this rare opportunity to flush out
corruption in the House.
9. I have pledged my continuous
support and assistance to the
security and anti-corruption
agencies.
10. Let me also state that contrary
to some myopic opinion that it
would affect the institution of the
House.
11. I will rather free the
institution of the grip of these
corrupt vested interests, restore
its integrity&shape it to become a
pride to us.
12. While Speaker Dogara and 12
corrupt members are running from
pillar to post trying to re define
padding,avoid the
anti-corruption agencies
13. And looking for cover or soft
landing, I have held several
meetings with the agencies, provided
useful documents and
vital information
14. They obviously have so much to
hide,so much to fear and every
reason to run to high places
looking for an exit plan,we call
them cowards!
15. I have repeatedly urged Speaker
Dogara&his gang of 12 corrupt
members to feel free and
forward any allegations they have
against me to
16. The anti-corruption
agencies.That is if they finally
find something beyond the lame
allegations of "immaturity" and
"betrayal", which
17. I have dealt with in my memoir
that will commence in a days. I am
not in anyway immune
against investigation&prosecution if
found wanting
18. To them maturity is hide
corruption!I pledged to stand as
witness against them on this matter,
they can as well stand witness
against me
19. I strongly believe that what is
happening today is beyond Hon
Abdulmumin Jibrin or corrupt Speaker
Yakubu Dogara. It is clearly from
God
20. It is a clear sign that
Almighty God has answered the
prayers of Mr President to
completely wipe corruption out of
Nigeria
21. This is what I have always
wanted to do, fight and expose
corruption in the House of
Representatives
22.I have fought corruption
internally in House. Now,I cherish
this rare opportunity to do it
externally. Yes,it is coming after
I left office
23. Which some people still
question. But does that in anyway
affect the substance of the
allegations I have raised so far?
24. As events unfold, Nigerians
will come to realise that this is
what I have always wanted to do,
fight corruption!
25. I strongly believe that God has
prepared me all my life for this.
It is a non-negotiable
destiny of mine
26. I say to Speaker Yakubu Dagara
and the 3 other principal officers,
the House of
Representatives belongs to Nigerians
27-listen to the voices of
Nigerians, take a moment&listen you
will do the right thing. In
any case, you will, may be at the
wrong time!!!

occupy nass is the way out

"Yes, Jubrin is right. 2016 Budget was padded. Hon. Daniel Reyenieju. Speaking on channels TV said, I am a member of Appropriation Committee and Sub Chairman of 6 Standing Committees and I can tell you that criminal insertions were made after the Committee has completed its assignment and submitted it. Some people went behind and began to pad the the budget. That is criminal. "For example, by the time we came back from recess, we discovered that NDDC budget was completely padded without recourse to the committee.

The president must find out at what point were all the over 2000 insertions that Jubrin enumerated entered into the budget. That would solve all these issues. "This is a moral issue. I can no longer call on the Speaker to step down again. He has already said he will not resign"
