Felixv:
I have american friends who one property and busineses in Thailand and are still paying US taxes on those properties.

A lot of these guys on this forum haven't got a clue how civilized countries operate.

The likes of saraki and others who have been evading taxes for years will be shitting in their pants now.

thank you!!!

iammo:
35% in exchange for what? A sick presidents medical tourism or Yusuf's racing bike fund

the write up says they will pay 35% of what they are meant to pay if they declare and pay voluntarily before the deadline. the tax rate itself is not up to 35%

illiterate

you are just come and start crying with no knowledge

iammo:
Just listen to yourself? Do you know how much hardwork blood and sweat it is for 80% of Nigerians abroad to get to mortgage an asset. And pay annual British property tax? Or perhaps you think money falls from trees abroad? Now they should add 35% of the value of the assets to pay to a useless government back home... So ridiculous how people think, or don't think

let them give a fraction back to their country!!!

CyberWolf:
shut up idiot..

you don't even own a pen abroad and you are crying like this

you need serious reorientation

FarahAideed:
You clearly don't know what you are saying

you are crying but you've never even been to seme border

SternProphet:
Buhari will drive looters out of this country. I think he is already unleashing his second term arsenal on the corrupt elite. He will do what he will do. Let poor men children be praising rich children's fathers on Nairaland. Buhari will do what GOD has appointed him to do.

I expect more dastardly weapons before December. IBB, we want to see at least $100m tax from you for your loot in swiss banks. Yes Buhari now knows all those who have billions abroad and you heard that he now knows... that was why you guys rigged the PDP primaries to produce Atiku.whom you want to use to fight Buhari.

God bless you!!!

someone is seeing what is happening now.

Nigerians are too daft to appreciate a good leader

Nbote:

why not go through all before you start making a fool of your education

FarahAideed:

CyberWolf:
shut the Bleep up see your mouth like build road You think you’re talking to a fool? The one they’ve been collecting from us in mutiples, what have they done with it?

you are the complete illiterate!!!


I repeat, the law is meant to take money from the rich and better the lives of the poor. I bet you don't even own a pen abroad and you are crying.

something is wrong with your brain

Nbote:
Here's d legislation U quoted...

[b]
On December 11, the Government published draft legislation outlining new taxes and charges which will have to be paid by offshore companies which own property in the UK. Although a consultation document on the topic was issued in May, there have been some significant changes since then – and property owners should start to plan accordingly before the laws come into force.
The main features of the proposed legislation will affect properties which are valued at more than £2 million and which are owned by “non-natural persons”. (This is a reference to foreign companies, partnerships, funds and the like, not to persons with strange personal habits.)
Previously many foreign buyers of UK property have chosen to register their properties in the name of an offshore company in order to eradicate UK inheritance tax (IHT), which would otherwise be charged at 40 per cent on the whole value of the property, after allowances, upon the death of the owner. Offshore company ownership also facilitated the avoidance of stamp duty (SDLT), as any subsequent sale of the property could be affected by a transfer of the shares in the company, leaving the title to the property in the UK unaltered.
But all that is about to change. Offshore companies which own property worth over £2 million will now be faced with:
1. An annual charge of a minimum of £15,000 and a maximum of £140,000 depending on value. The new tax is called Annual Residential Property Tax (ARPT).
[/b]

Dis legislation isn't taxing UK citizens for properties abroad.. It is taxing OFFSHORE COMPANIES who own properties IN THE UK!!!! Na so English hard U?

illiterate read through the others.


if you own properties that are generating income abroad you pay taxes to the country too!!! I have about 3links!!!

aribs:
The amount of confident ignorance that gets put out on this forum is mind-boggling to say the least. the simplest research would have given context to this post but no... a government comes to enact policy that is sensible and people reply from a point of all emotion and no factual basis and with no empirical research done. Yet when the country is not developed the same people are wondering why and cursing out the leadership. Nigerians really deserve the leadership they have.

thank you sir. I'm shocked o

a man is trying to tax the rich so the government can have more money to take care of the poor and they are crying blue murder.


most of those crying haven't even been to seme border not to talk of owning a bicycle abroad

thunderfirebuha:
Yorubas as ussual will support this idiot.

Why don't he tax cows and goats.

This man is a thief who only came to steal and kill.

you are a complete illiterate!!!

it's common sense that you tax the super rich (0.01%) and use the money to better the lives of the poor (99.99%)

get yourself educated

Nbote:
Lolzzz... With each passing day dis govt jus proves how absolutely clueless dey are... How do U expect to collect taxes on properties in other countries? Are U d one providing infrastructures and facilities those properties enjoy?



Reading is one thing understanding is anoda thing... Im now certain U ppl have mucus in ur heads for brains

you are definitely out of your senses.

the question is do many other countries have similar laws?

and this is a government that is trying to get money from the 0.01% and give it to build Hospitals and roads 99.99% will benefit from!!!

of the money will be used well then it's a good thing!!!

he's trying to take from the rich to better the lives of the poor!!!

CyberWolf:
You said developed countries .. Are we a developed country? If you must copy developed country, copy it 100%

the law is targeted at getting money from Nigerians that are rich so the money can be used to repair roads and build public hospitals and schools that the poor and average people like you and I will benefit from more.

the law will only affect 0.1% of Nigerians!!! but the great majority will benefit from the funds it will generate for the government!!!


educate yourself

majasaint:
You could have been better if you were just illiterate but you have foolishness added together to your illiteracy.

someone that can't do a simple Google search is calling someone am illiterate

JayMarx:
Before you embarass yourself further. Those countries put the life of their citizens above everything. When did you hear that an American is hanged in Indonesia for traficking? Do you think they don't. What's the protection that Nigeria gives her citizen that are abroad.
INTELligent people know that he's Articulating a plan.

mumu talk. keep making a fool of yourself.

the law is targeted at getting money from Nigerians that are rich so the money can be used to repair roads and build public hospitals and schools that the poor and average people like you and I will benefit from more but you are still complaining.

your education is a waste!!!

see a lot of illiterates insulting buhari when it's obvious developed countries have similar laws


a simple Google search could have saved this multitude from embarrassing themselves.


btw 99.9999% of the people crying don't even own a pin abroad o

1. Before 2015, 1 bag of rice = #8000. Buhari just one year in office, 1 bag of rice = #23000. . . Kai baba!

2. Before 2015, 1 liter of fuel = #80. "I will make 1liter of fuel = #45." After 2015, 1 liter of fuel = #150. . . Why baba?

3. Before 2015, "I will create 5 million jobs every year for four years," after 3 years in office, 10million jobs have been lost in Nigeria, zero created. Source: NBS. . . Chai baba!

4. Before 2015, "I will make education free at all levels in Nigeria," after 2015, 38 universities in Nigeria, the likes of UNIZIK, UNN, OAU, UNIABUJA, increases their tuition fee. . . but baba, you said. . . !

5. Before 2015, 1 dollar = #160. In 2015, "I will make 1dollar = #1." After 3 years of kwarruption fighting, 1 dollar = #381. . .
Enough is enough! Bye BABA!!!


Buhari has failed Nigerians and failed himself!!!

APC never again!


#ATIKULATION2019!!!

your signature has betrayed your current state of mind. you berate northerners and Muslims but the atiku you are supporting now is a Muslim and a northerner. can you now see your ignorance is factory fitted?

as for your foolish post filled with lies. I chose to ignore

have a nice day kid

maxiuc:
Do you know that Nairaland was more United before and there wasn't much tribal wars compared to what we are seeing today here on Nairaland .

From 2010 till 2013 I was so enjoying Nairaland and everyone was so sincere with replies and quotes there was little fracas

It became worst when Buhari emerged as president he not only caused division, tribal sentiment and crisis among Nigerians but also to nairalanders who will see red and say it is black

When are we going to have a peaceful matured and interesting Nairaland

it started 2011!!! after Jonathan won the election.

https://www.nairaland.com/745731/yoruba-marginalization-elders-met-jonathan#9018765

see anti Yoruba comments here even though Jonathan won the southwest in 2011

Abjay97:
I dont support rape but all this women claiming rape when
1. They made themselves vulnerable by wearing skimpy dresses
2. They sleep with a well known celeb and claim rape

are not serious..
This girl claiming C Ronaldo raped her met him in a night club.. what was she expecting in a night club? A prayer?

this is the dumbest comment I've read in years

SOUTH WEST GAVE BUHARI A PALTRY 700K. IT IS A NATIONAL RECORD. ATIKU IS NOT READY FOR THAT. HE NEEDS A BLOCK VOTE.

SOUTH East VOTE is NOT certain for anyone. They VOTE in BLOCK. And not ready to take any insult.

from the above the total is almost 3m like o told you earlier

ipobs and ignorance

take your L in peace

votes for APC

ekiti-120,313
ogun- 308,290
osun-383,603
oyo-528,620
ondo- 299,889
lagos- 792,460

Lagos alone gave him more than seven hundred thousand votes and you concluded yorubas only gave him 700k

oyo and osun alone is more than seven hundred thousand.

you are just ignorant

AyakaDunukofia:
Please, how many votes did SW give Buhari in 2015? Answer is 700,000 votes,

When did SW start playing main stream political alliance with North?

Don't assign yourselves non existing importance.

Last time I checked, Yoruba has historically been in opposition.

lie. buhari got 3m votes from the south west

PDP got 2.7m

clowns this time next week the umbrella will be in pieces
atiku will be in apga for sure

Herdsmen:
A very bad omen for the country.. Introduced by the terrorist party Apc..

Vote buying.. child voters.. mace stealing.. election manipulation..

APC is evil and must be resisted by all well meaning Nigerians..

Not some dead brain things ..

it's good to say Jonathan started it

if you are new to the story of queen Sheba and how she settled and was buried in ijebu then I'm not the one to educate you about that

read about queen birikisu sungbo

no research in this world can verify what happened over 2000 years ago. all you can get are stories. the story was discussed here

https://www.nairaland.com/4620519/queen-sheba-buried-ijebu-ode-here


here are the archeological findings which are as good as research on the queen

http://www.hartford-hwp.com/archives/30/143.html


you can also read about sungbo eredo

0monnak0da:
The fundamental assumption is that the bible us true.,it is the story of the Hebrews. It is no truer than any other story.

The other assumption is that mankind started out in the Middle East. Long before any of the books of the bible were written the Yoruba existed
Oduduwa is not the father of the Yoruba
He was s man who came from elsewhere and established a dynasty of kings he could have come from anywhere. But he met people, he met the language and he met
Ifa . Importantly he only arrived about a thousand years ago at least 1000 years after the Old Testament was written.

lol you know nothing


how do you explain the queen of Sheba that settle in the ijebu kingdom as at the time of Solomon which is well over 2000 years ago?

EmekaMD:
But I thought oduduwa and his children fell from the sky.. apparently rebelled (back-bited) in heaven and was casted down to earth

PS.. before you me mention to clap back, first answer these questions.

1. Where did Satan fall down from?
2. Where did oduduwa fall down from?
3. Why was Satan sent parking from heaven?
4. Then why do u think oduduwa was sent parking from where he fell From?

stop making a fool of yourself

obatala came down with a chain and pour sand on the water to create the earth. humans were not in existence then. then he made humans from clay and gave them breathe of life

that is Yoruba creation story.

oduduwa didn't fall from the sky.

illiterate!!! read

According to a Yoruba account of creation , during a certain stage in this process, the "truth" was sent to confirm the habitability of the newly formed planets. The earth being one of these was visited but deemed too wet for conventional life.
After a successful period of time, a number of divinities led by Obatala were sent to accomplish the task of helping earth develop its crust. On one of their visits to the realm, the arch-divinity Obatala took to the stage equipped with a mollusk that concealed some form of soil ; winged beasts and some cloth like material. The contents were emptied onto what soon became a large mound on the surface of the water and soon after, the winged-beasts began to scatter this around until the point where it gradually made into a large patch of dry land; the various indentations they created eventually becoming hills and valleys.
Obatala leaped onto a high-ground and named the place Ife. The land became fertile and plant life began to flourish. From handfuls of earth he began to mold figurines. Meanwhile, as this was happening on earth, Olodumare gathered the gasses from the far reaches of space and sparked an explosion that shaped into a fireball. He subsequently sent it to Ife, where it dried much of the land and simultaneously began to bake the motionless figurines. It was at this point that Olodumare released the "breath of life" to blow across the land, and the figurines slowly came into "being" as the first people of Ife.

I believe yorubas are not Hebrew but oduduwa might have occupied Jerusalem before it was conquered

have you forgotten the story of Solomon's wife that also came down to settle in ijebu less than 50yrs after David conquered Jerusalem? she was the queen of Sheba who married king Solomon.

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2010/06/birikisu-sungbo-king-solomons-african-queen/

so to me yorubas are not Jews but yorubas might have been the previous occupants of some of the Jewish lands

biafranation:
It's funny and hypocritical how Afonjas are now claiming Jews, and Igbos are not interfering. But let it be Igbo article by Reno, and watch afonjas invade to attack. Go to all social media page even on youtube on Igbo origin, you will see Afonjas there, and you ask yourself, what are these people doing in Igbo pages? The funny thing is Igbos don't go to their pages. LOL

Reno oMONKEYry is afonja? where is the Yoruba man claiming Jew?

he only said the ijebu were the original occupants of Jerusalem and they were black before David conquered them.

you need to read and understand
