I will surely witness the fall of APC amen

I will surely witness the fall of APC

I will surely witness the fall of APC

I will surely witness the fall of APC


Amen

Iran don't know what America are capable of.

They thought it Israel that is playing with them

The problem here is not what he says.

It because there was a feud in the family.

If everything we said come to pass, most of us will be in a better position than where they're today.

I don't know why we always believed that negative things come from what we said

What about my positive saying that I want to be richer than Dangote?

Obi come back this time will be tsunami.

DoTheNeedful:
Obi is vying to be Atiku's VP; there is no need to deceive anyone.

I don't see Atiku as an ideologue or a principled individual, consumed with the love for Nigeria and convinced in Obi's capabilities to concede presidency to Obi. This is Atiku that has contested every presidential election since 2007, regardless of where the position were zoned. He is in the coalition to get the ticket. Obi knows this and he would gladly accept to be his VP, after he has been "dollar-defeated" in the primaries.

Oseloka, Tanko, Aisha and the rest know that Obi is likely to be Atiku's VP candidate. They are saying all they have been saying over the past few days to alley the fear and concerns of some skeptical hardcore Obidients. Once the primaries has been concluded and Obi "dollar-defeated", they would start changing their tune slowly and "encourage" Obi to be Atiku's running mate.

Once Obi "accepts" to be Atiku's running mate, we would start hearing things like: "Obi will be in charge of economy", "Obi will be the most powerful VP", "Atiku has agreed to do only one term" etc. .

In actual fact, the VP position is not really strong, even in America. Atiku would want to do more than one term, if they win. Their relationship might not last six months after the election, partly because Atiku would be surrounded by Northern cabals and Obidients will not stay silent. The would give Obi all the credit for any positive thing under Atiku's administration.

Chai! I am seeing too far into the future.

you are not seeing anything.

What you wrote here is a normal that can happen in Nigeria. This is not predictions but a political character in Nigeria.

So you are not seeing anything.

I have learned to let this thought go away from me.

I didn't choose to come to this world.

My being in this world is a work of two different spe.rm.

I feel the emptiness but I have no choice than to be here till the power of those sper,m that formed me expired.

No be joke.

The promise was to reduce the purchasing power of the people.

2026 Tax Reforms: Man speaks out as barber imposes VAT on customers, shares proof
A Nigerian man has sparked conversation online after calling out his barber for adding a 7.5% Value Added Tax (VAT) to customers’ bills.

According to a viral notice shared online, the barber informed customers that starting from January 1, 2026, a 7.5% VAT would be added to every payment made at the shop.



The barber explained that the decision was in compliance with new mandatory regulations by the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS).

This comes amid the federal government’s enforcement of tax policies expected to take effect this year.


The notice also apologised for any inconvenience caused and thanked customers for their continued support, adding that the business looks forward to serving them better.

However, many internet users did not find the move amusing, questioning when barbers began charging VAT like large corporations.

Reactions quickly followed online. One commentator wrote, “So after a ₦5k haircut, I’ll now pay VAT? Nigeria is not a real place.”

Another added, “Small businesses are just trying to survive. If FIRS dey disturb them, what do you expect?”

Whether it is strict compliance or unnecessary overreach, one thing is clear, even a simple haircut is no longer safe from VAT conversations in Nigeria.

As big as the sky is

Were they drunk

These people love attacking Obi just to demarket him because they can't come out of the fact that Obi won 2023 general election.


Tinubu is the president through bribery.

Tinubu is a thief.

😆 lol

Every year I found myself going through a lot to make myself happy without tying it to a new year


And besides! What is making this year a happy New Year when we all know what:'bat ' is cooking against us this year

Leave the messenger and face the message

people in APC has no sense my brother

nairalanda1:
That's not income tax, which is what they are referring to. Income tax is payable from your monthly income, not from ticket or anything.

income tax, dues it also applied to people who have no jobs either from the government or else where?

Na now you wake up?

So the ticket we buy as a driver is not tax

Or what is it call?


Because there are more than 10 million commercial vehicles on Nigeria's roads

dawnomike:
That average age is fast converging to 10yrs.

But what sense does it make that in the UK
Women are given more privileges than men?

The government of the UK should look into this matter o

And we have just 7-8 billions man on the whole planet.

What happen to just sharing 1,1 billion to everyone on earth?

He will still have more than enough to pursue his trillion.

Although I wish they also have a feelers from the insecurity Nigerian are going through.

Nice question Sha.

I decided to stop being a womanizer and that decision give me a good woman

TrueReports:
One by One,Tinubu is consolidating the real grassroot powers.Obi doesn't even have a party,Atiku is still trying to build ADC,Wike is scattering PDP and its just one year to the next presidential elections.

Long term preparation has always been Tinubu game.

Even the blind can see the winner of the election miles away.

Tinubu is doing this because he knew that he didn't win the last election.

He is using presidential power to threaten oppositions to join so he will be very confident of winning the next election without the stress he goes through in 2023 and still loose for the court to save him.

United against Nigerians.


Your unity will certainly be dismantle

What a beautiful news to end the year with

The Court of Appeal in Abuja has affirmed the October 4, 2024 judgment of a Federal High Court in Abuja barring the Directorate of Road Traffic Services (popularly called VIO) from further stopping, impounding, or confiscating vehicles on the road and imposing fines on motorists.

In a judgment on Thursday, a three-member panel of the appellate court resolved the three issues identified for determination against the appellant, the Directorate of Road Traffic Services.

Justice Oyejoju Oyebiola Oyewumi, who delivered the lead judgment, held that the appeal was without merit. She awarded a cost of N1million against the appellant and in favour of the respondent, a rights activist and public interest attorney, Abubakar Marshal.
