The fake WhatsApp message he read about moving port from Lagos, is that not ethnic bigotry?

Deportation of northerners from Anambra, is that not bigotry?

pandax:
We will not resist, but we will avoid by paying in our home states. Whatever is your given tax assessment in Lagos, Anambra will give you 70% discount folks. Pay in Anambra and show LIRS evidence of paying at your business HQs

Shey you will pay your land use charge in Anambra too...Oniyeye

Have you not been doing that before ?

Chibuzoc:
Tax resistance is a form of protest against injustice supervised by the government.

We are boycotting tax because the government cannot protect us and our votes as a vote of no confidence. Those in other states should follow this process also

You don't want us to vote but you need our taxes. You're a thief

By the time LASG responds, dont cry victimization and tribalism.

Workch:
I will start making plans to evade, as much as I can, any Lagos state tax because if I cannot vote in Lagos then I can evade Lagos state tax as well.

There are different types of taxation in Lagos state:

The taxes and other levies payable to LIRS include PAYE tax, withholding tax, business premises levy, development levy.

1. You can evade PAYE tax if you pay into your employee's personal accounts. Don't open any salary account for them.

2. You can evade withholding taxes while doing business with government organizations by inflating the prices of your product or services. You can collude with corrupt Lagos state officials to do that.

3.There's also the monthly and annual tax return: make sure to recieve as much payment into your personal account to evade this. You can only pay tax for monies received in your business account.

You cannot evade development levy and business premises levy, they are usually not very much anyways.

You don't know that LIRS do staff audits in companies?I know multinationals and other big companies won't dream of this.
Shey you go evade LUC too..
If you like inflate contract fees but you will still pay withholding tax.

Chibuzoc:
Are you asking? Unfortunately, even yorubas that looked like Igbos were stopped

Were voters not intimidated in other states too especially in the east?
If you are intimidated, there are legal ways to address it not by evading tax

jimyjames:
Is stopping Nigerians from voting not a crime?

Were you stopped from voting

jimyjames:
Under which constitution will Lagos have the authority to do that?

Have you forgotten Peter Obi in Anambra sacked civil servants of neighboring state?Dont you know that tax evasion is a crime?Will you have a property in Lagos state and pay land use charge in another state?

Chibuzoc:
Don't worry, we go file zero tax. No income

A petty trader with shop can't evade tax in Lagos unless you hawk inside traffic.

We will start asking for your tax clearance if you want to enjoy public services or amenities.

TheNiceGuy:
You'll have to leave Lagos State if you don't want to ..

You can't be staying in Lagos, enjoy the amenities, business atmosphere and say you won't pay tax.

Them no smart at all..Shey the few ones wey get property in Lagos will pay their Land use charge in Anambra Shebi when Lasg start retrenching people from their states, they won't shout tribalism.By the time they dont allow their children in public schools and universities, dem go dey alright.
By the time Lasg go after them for tax evasion, dem go get sense.

Puremind1225:
So you are smarter than American that still uses electronic voting

How..Seems you don't understand my statement .

Solsix:
Most developed countries are electronic transmission and Thier elections are always free and fair

Even Trump as a sitting president in USA claimed USA election was rigged electronically in favor of Biden.

chiefkpokp:
Hahahaha good question, we prefer to have Igbo as wife than yoruba....truth be told except either ur fada or mother is partly Benin,partly Yoruba that that kind of marriage will occur... Both some of my family members married Igbo ladies,Edo, other tribe.... But it's very rear for a Benin- Yoruba marriage... Go and do it research.

My mum is from Delta state and by Gods grace, I will be marrying from Benin.
With what I've heard from many Benin ladies, they prefer to marry from south west than to marry from across the Niger (south east)

gidgiddy:
Maiyegun says it at it is: example

You say some people have no respect for you in your land

You say some people highly disrespect you by saying Lagos is no man's land

You say that some people cannot be trusted with power

You even say that those people should not be coming to your area, should not interfere in the politics of your area and that those of them already in your area should go back home

But as soon as those people talk about independence, Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB

You the same complainant, will start looking for Nnamdi Kanu's head, wanting all IPOB killed, hating everything about Biafra

What sort of confusion is this?

How can you be complaining about some people, but still be angry when the same people say they want to go their way?

Thats when you now tell them to go through their elected representatives? Why?

If you dont like someone, or feel they are taking too much, it is you who would even want them to go away as fast possible

But the same complainants will be making all kinds of excuses and be even ready to fight war, just to be in the same country with those they are complaining about

Madness everywhere

Nobody is saying Ibos should not live or do business in Lagos .We don't just want you to meddle in our politics..You are foreigners in Lagos.Doing that will be resisted heavily...No be only una dey Lagos.

LegendHero:
Maiyegun dey craze.

The guy don collect money from them.

chiefkpokp:
The truth must be said, As a Benin man, I know quiet well that the Benin and Yorubas are linked from the history so normally we d edos were supposed to be very closer to the Yorubas... But believe u me....we love the Igbos more and prefer to run things with them than the Yorubas, though I don't know of other Edo personalities, but I can authoritatively say without mixing words that in my family we prefer to work with the Igbos than Yoruba, I don't just no if it's only my family....the Igbos are truelly industrious that is the pure reasons why they are hated by some people.....

In your family , do you prefer to marry the ibos than Yorubas?

DenreleDave:
Since he has Igbo mother, let him go to Igbo land and become governor


We reject him.... Final..

If you like open 50k thread, we will still reject him..
Come 2027,we go still reject am.. Igbos shud accept in anambra

His political career is dead in Lagos.
He has better chance in Anambra now than in Lagos.

Tinubuagbado:
*Boycott Census in Lagos.*

Lagos is about 20million people.
By Law, more seats are allocated to states like Lagos in the house of Reps due to their large population...this population is made up of those of us who have been violently prevented from voting...we were told we are not Lagosians, we were told to go back to where we come from.

....And we have accepted.

Come May 2023, there will be another national Census and we won't allow ourselves to be counted as Lagosians.

We must "respect our hosts" and return to our states of origin to be counted. Or refuse to be counted as Lagosians.

You can't accept our population and Reject our votes.

#BoycottCensusInLagos.
Copied.

Make sure all igbos stop attending public schools in Lagos and you stop trooping to our General hospitals.You can do this in your region.
All igbos in Lagos state civil service should resign too.

Please go ahead..afterall, na your money you take procure am.

raskymonojendor:
What he did here is also similar to the Yoruba christians vs Yoruba Muslim that Ibos try to use to divide Yorubas on Nairaland.

Ibos and Gbadebo do not know that we are Yoruba first before being Christian or Muslim. Hence, you find many Yoruba household with inter-religious beliefs. Father fit be Muslim, wife Christian, some kids Muslim and some kids Christians. An average ibo can't fathom how this works since people of same faith fight in their region let alone family members of different faith.

He also does not know that Yoruba-ness is more important than borders created by the colonial masters and military juntas. Yorubas from Benin Republic all the way to Nigeria are one. So that tweet of Faleke, Osinbanjo e.t.c is hilarious. It's even more hilarious that he left out the ibos that worked for both Tinubu and Fashola.

All the Yorubas irrespective of party came together to fight LP..Im happy Sanwo olu won if not, it will be easier for them to capture Ogun state in subsequent election.

raskymonojendor:
Yes. Not only fabric sef. Major sellers of FMCG and distributors of Nestles, Cadbury, P&G e.t.c on the island as well. All those Mushin, Ilupeju, Palmbrove e.t.c are old Ijebu. Once you hear their surname starting with Ogun... 8 out of 10 times, they will be Ijebu..

Gbadebo knows zilch about the ethnic make-up of the state he wants to govern.

True..You know the ijebus very well.If it was In the USA, UK or any country, for him not to be able to speak the local language of where he wants to govern is outright disqualification .They won't even give you citizenship if you don't understand their language.But here, he wants to govern a Yoruba state that he doesn't understand their language.
He is more qualified to contest in the east than in Lagos because he knows more about the eastern culture than Yoruba culture.

SLAP44:
If I live and work in a state and pay my taxes and own my property, I am an indigene of that state.

Anyone who's not happy about it can knock his head on olumo Rock.

Tankio.

If they ask for your state of origin, will you write the state because you live, work and pay tax there ?

For International transactions, Russia will still use SWIFT.

forgiveness:
Wake up. Lagos already had street lights, railway, tram, telephone, banks, port, bridges, well paved roads, thriving economy etc before the entity Nigeria was formed.

Another thing. Lagos is different from Lagos state. The capital of Nigeria was Lagos not the whole Lagos state.

From Jibowu down to Ilupeju to Ikeja, Ikorodu, Epe, Badagry were all developed under the Western government of Nigeria.

I'm not sure the person you quoted knows anything about Lagos.

TheNiceGuy:
Asgard73 is composing another lines for 2027 that goes does.


"Tinubu must contest for second term.
Yoruba must be on ballot.
North 2027"

You aren't nice.

Throwback:
He is not the 1st mixed tribe Yoruba to aspire for political office in Yoruba land, but he is the 1st to be confirmed a bastard by his own opinion of Yorubas juxtaposed with his opinion of Igbos.

An inglorious bastard who even saw wrong in non-Lagos Yorubas having roles in Lagos, but did not question Igbos having roles in Lagos.

Meanwhile, not like his own Lagos Island slave returnee family are not settlers among the Aworis.

He was even stupid enough to say an Ijebu Sanwo-Olu had the audacity to question him a Rhodes-Vivour.

No be Ijebu get Ikorodu and Epe and Lekki/Ibeju-Lekki? Of all the Yorubas residing in Lagos regardless of their origins, no be Ijebu plenty pass?


Omoale jati jati.

True...i know most of the Yoruba fabric sellers on the island are ijebus...You will see many old ijebus in Ilupeju palmgrove and somolu on the mainland.

Lagos in this context means Eti osa local government .One local government out of 20 local governments in Lagos..Lagos is different from Lagos state.Ikorodu, ikeja, ibeju lekki Epe, Badagry etc weren't occupied by Benin yet they are in Lagos state.

Yorubas actually pushed for the relocation of FCT from Lagos.

beardedboy:
Oh stop the empty chest-beating.

According to your delusional mind, Igbos are the only hardworking people in Nigeria, in fact in the whole world.

I grew up in Lagos and I can tell you that it's only one Igbo landlord I know throughout stay in Lagos.

Abeg, leave the empty threat.

Are you the ones selling vegetables and fruits in Ketu-Mile 12?

Are you the ones dominating aluminium village in Idumagbo?

Even the okrika business in Super, Abule-Egba is now dominated by all tribes including fulanis. Your monopoly there has been broken.

Your monopoly and domination over Alaba and computer village will also be broken soon.

You will learn how to mind your business.

There are more Yorubas in computer village

Shikini:
Oga, I have lived in Lagos for about 20yrs and can say this is the propaganda the Tinubu political machinery always use to win elections.

Watch out, the propaganda will die down after elections and will resurrect again in full force in 2027.

Post evidence, then post your account details.

I'm from Lagos and I have facts.
I'm not interested in your money and I won't post any link but for transparency purpose for those that will want to post the link, I wil suggest you use an escrow preferably one of this forum moderators.

Saao:
lol you want to also deny your sis as well? I'm not surprise as well

She has mixed ancestry as attached...We should know that it was her Fulani ancestry that made her Abuja politician .

Saao:
why do you guys denied your own? Ireti Habeebal is a younger Sister to Mrs. Ajoke Muhammad, the late wife of Late Murtala Muhammad, so you can deny more if you can, I'm not surprise though

She has mixed ancestry .
