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

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

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

Still it's not the new 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.

Druss:
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

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

CodeTemplarr:
Taxing existence and not prosperity is what has brought Iran to her knees. They are taxing transfer of funds not minding the purpose. If an association of individuals decide to transfer donation for a noble cause and that amount exceeds 10,000.00 boooom N50 is gone from sender n reciever. You trqnsfer your tithe also, boooom another N50.
Urgent 10k nko? Another one. You pay for groceries with transfer nko? Same thinv. Ransom to kidnappers nko same thing. Imagine Adamu/Ada/Ade has been kidnapped and as the tradition has become, his people are transferring above N10k to a contribution holding account, boooom N50 each. They are taxing misery and existence like proaperity. Taxing even injustice.


Funding religion is another

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

Still a huge improvement on the previous

Tinubu is more Christian than 95% of Nigerian Christians.

His brand of progressivism is out of this world, and brings his hard-core vocal enemies to his side. God, give me grace and strength.

laslimdajay:
Wike leave his primary assignment in Abuja to go and fight rivers 001.

Come and do your ministry work for Abuja o.

The funny thing is that Wike is working, and one of the top performers in his field. While his ingrate boy is doing next to nothing except seeking sympathy.

Ayo25:
Tinubu will not have any problem with all parties until una attempt to bomb pipeline

Who pays to repair the pipeline. Who loses money when you bomb pipelines? Is bombing pipelines part of your agreement and disagreement? If two people are fighting in my neighborhood, i likely mind my business. If they trespass and want to burn the neighborhood or damage the transformer, that's my main business. Go figure.

Agreement is agreement. If you don't like the agreement, terms and clauses, don't agree, don't sign. This fellow has done nothing significant since he became governor apart from fighting and acting drama. He's governor of a top state for God's sake.

Seems it's high time. Once beaten, never shy Fubara.

Those guys are proving to be cowards. Is this the excuse and distractions they want to give if they lose? Many of them are collecting multiple times this bonuses on a weekly. But they want to bungle their chances because they are owed for less than a month.

Because he can't win the primary. He doesn't understand the meaning of democracy, rule of law or patriotism.
To him, when he rigs ruthlessly in the South East, it's called pure love. Negative news from other regions is a stepping stone that must be milked in his favour. See no evil, say no evil in the South East. Bring in many puff puff containers to the Supreme Court to win election court cases. These are the only strategies he knows.

Lolz, at things losers do to make themselves happy. Better happy than depressed though.

Who else should we endorse?

Hope say you know dey do place holder?

dominique:
What manner of entitlement is this? Is the presidential ticket is birthright?

It's called pure love na.

"Nigeria is not poor, Nigeria is poorly governed" Peter obi

We saw how he richly governed Anambra State for 8years, and his APGA and LP leadership. Even his personal business is not a top recruitment destination. Talk is very cheap.

God is not so frivolous as to be doing sporty bet

Maobichek:
Good morning, despite my clarification you still hinged on my transfer (expenditures) alone; there would definitely be no way my transactions would be expenditures alone, thank you and have a great day.

Actually, you said "I have done over 15 transfer yesterday and today but it's still the old 26/52 Naira charge, i later ask someone in CBN and it was confirmed that the new tax is yet to take effect."
You assumed on these bank transfers that the tax reform is not implemented. This is why i have to ask you how you think you should be taxed. You seemed to be expecting some tax deductions on your 15 transfers.
Are you an employee or self employed? How were you taxed before this year? The answer to these questions may help with the explanation you're looking for.

Maobichek:
I'm not ignorant, what i wrote is both income and expenditures, if you have been taxed on any income received since January 1st, please confirm it via proofs. I'm in the FCT so anything happening in Nigeria should start here.

I'm apolitical hence i don't support any political party; I'm not holding brief for the ruling party or the opposition, thank you.

Did the FG tell you they'd be taxing your bank transfers?

Afrobasic:
See this one dey pretend. Lie that you are not a fan of the drug lord in Aso rock?

Obviously, you're in need of medical and psychological help.

The Jagaban. Loud it guys. And we should leave this to vote rubbish?

That's some huge huge problem. The Nigerian audacity of corruption is fantastic indeed.
Cartels are established this way.

Maobichek:
I have done over 15 transfer yesterday and today but it's still the old 26/52 Naira charge, i later ask someone in CBN and it was confirmed that the new tax is yet to take effect.

Maybe Fed government has been taxing you differently this year but mine is still the same old charges, thank you.

Obviously, you are proudly ignorant. Did the FG tell you they'd be taxing your bank transfers?

Ahhh, how Gumi go like me. oh no.
But no video evidence na. i can't just run with some random two people on youtube.

Deepspirituals:
. He was not defeated ,Did he contest for President....He said the naked truth ...Baba needs the Inec and Judges that is all

Okay sir, i believe.

Maobichek:
This has nothing to do with opposition ok, many people raised concern about the tax. I want to ask you a question: why did the federal government yet to implement the tax on Nigerians?

What tax, the tax laws came into effect this week, January 1. i guess you were listening to wrong people.

AMINDA:
Just imagine! Magnus Abe? Is this a way of pacifying Wike or checkmating him? Serious institutions of state are now been used to curry favour and settle political debts, all because of the desperation and inordinate ambition of one man? All I see is panic.

Video: Wike warns APC National Secretary, Ajibola Bashiru to steer clear of Rivers state.

Minister Wike has warned the National Secretary of the APC, Ajibola Basiru to stay clear of Rivers State.

When e reach your turn, choose your enemy or unknown person.

All these unproven allegations don't win elections. You're only making excuses for your imminent defeat.

anonimi:
Like the lies and desperation of Oshiomole's Assembly of PAst Criminals, APC as we entered election season 11 years ago?

By how much is Tinubu forcing Nigerians to subsidise the massive corruption in the oil sector now for every litre of fuel

hi, perennial goalpost shifter

It goes without saying. There's no competent opposition in view.
