Fair enough but why not make your South East conducive to these companies to move their businesses and VAT to?

After all none of these companies will stay put in the South West if they see a better deal elsewhere.

Which company will go and open in a region where it is forbidden to operate on Mondays?

MadamExcellency:
Imagine the quantum of cements bought for projects in Southeast (Onitsha, Owerri, Aba, Enugu, Ebonyi etc) but the VATs are paid in the Southwest and the North but the consumption is done in the Southeast.

Forget the content curators that know nothing about who Nigeria system is bastardized and operated.

Who was your economics teacher in secondary school? Your parents are supposed to sue whoever it was and ask for a full refund. Even a basic 2 pupil knows that VAT is borne by final consumers.

beerfraud:
tax evasion is likely to be higher in southeast

Because South East is the headquarters of every fraudulent activity in Nigeria.

MadamExcellency:
All my invoices from Unilever, P&G and other companies are VATed in Lagos State, Southwest or the location of the manufacturing company while the consumption is done in Southeast. That's an abrasion but for the ignoramuses, they don't know what's coming at them after the passage of the TAX bills.

Meaning that SE is not a profitable location to site industries, hence no VAT is generated there. Anyway, we are not talking about Lagos state here. We are talking about the Ibadan you people love to refer to as brown roof,now feeding you from her revenue. What a shame to SE.

Richtaiwo:
Since the police disobeyed the orders of ipob miscreants, I suggest you go arrest him yourself.

Oyo state alone contributed N272 Billion while 5 evil forests contributed barely N100 billion within same period. Now take a look at what Oyo received compared with what the evil forests got within same period. Who is feeding who? Did Reno lie?

Products of evil forest must behave like their cursed parents.

How old is he? Anyway these are my suggestion: Video game, bicycle, music instrument, set of cloths or shoes, G shock watch.

For me, he behaves like a spoilt kid that was brought up to always have whatever he wants, therefore growing up to be denied whatever he craves such as PDP Presidential ticket and the 70% of Rivers revenue makes him become mad.

I don't blame Simon epka or Simon groundnut or whatever he is, I only blame his empty skull followers that keep hailing him (and their hero Nnamdi Kanu) for inciting hatred and destruction in their land while he was enjoying his own peace in a foreign land. Most of their hailers are in Lagos and other places in the south west doing their business peacefully while praising the war mongers for causing troubles and unrest in their own south east.

Seun:
Hello Guys,

How would you summarize the current state of Nairaland, particularly for you/

Please be nice!

Nairaland is a nice place to get news, information on current affairs and trends. However, I notice that some childish inconsequential posts surprisingly make it to the front Page, probably simply because the poster is a known regular customer on nairaland, so whatever rubbish they publish which is always their personal opinion, whether relevant or irrelevant, is always sent to the front page to constitute nuisance for innocent readers.

Telling us he is willing to surrender is a way of telling us you are unwilling to kill him. If you don't kill him, then you are his accomplice.

StPete:
Imagine spending this amount to buy this, then NEPA decides to fry the board with high voltage the next day

Omo, na to sue the whole of Genco, Disco, NERC and every individual working in NEPA office and their families along with their friends and relatives.

Negroid001:
And some tribalistic miscreant immigrants will still open mouth gbam to say Lagos is thrash and they built it. Why una no build una papa land?

Oyo state get rep pass some states and dem no shout.

Oyo state that they love to refer to as Republic of brown roofs is contributing what the whole of their region cannot provide. Shame on them.

Metordman:
But they voted for jagaban na, why wailing?

Let me remind you, Jagaban did not win in Lagos. Peter Obi won in Lagos.

galserv:
Od*!

Buhari took Nigeria decades backwards

Tinubu is struggling to clear the mess

You have the time to respond to that lunatik?

gtassure:
I think the wife is only telling him to use his senses! Nigerian men tend to over do this "provider status" as if dem be Elon Musk! We have Hero complex. Unfortunately Heroes usually don't last!

Hmmm, true.

Bobodee09:
Is so bad that has a married man you can't even buy yourself new wears.

Throughout last year I couldn't get myself a new set of jeans trouser even tho I needed it badly despite having the money.
All the money I made last year 90% when into paying bills and household expenses.
It so crazy how you has a man you will have over 200k in your acc and you be scared to even buy yourself something of 10k cos of fear of the unknown.
In all of this my wife and kids still has many clothes they haven't worn I paid for you.

Last weekend my wife bought herself over 10 new shirt and when I saw it I reminded her how I couldn't even buy myself new jean....she told me nah me no wan buy nah.
It really hurt me cos whatever money I make the family expenses come first before my own personal needs but it isn't same for women.

I just feel marriage is design for men to suffer honestly.
People just taking from you and no one really care about what you need.

That statement alone from your wife is enough to make you think twice about your self. This year, I have decided to be a little more selfish in taking care of my personal needs and make myself happy. If I die today, life continues.

Rule No. 1 for men in 2025.

Welcome to South Africa, where the life of a fish is more valuable than the life of other human being from another African country.

Yujin:
It's easy to judge another person when you're not in their shoes. I believe the teacher must have had her record in the school. If it says she's a habitual brute, then it can be concluded that she isn't fit for the job but if not, then she should be queried and left to continue her job. Working with kids can be tough. Passing through the Nigerian schools, things like this aren't rare to find. It shouldn't be condoned but what I saw in the video isn't a scenario that warrants a state punishment yet.

Will you keep quiet? You are still talking rubbish the more!

I thought Nigeria has moved pass terrorist attack!

PresidObi:
Have you asked the landlord if he has recouped his initial investment even after 30 years?

So, because he has not recouped his initial investment since after 30 years, he should wake up one day and start thinking of how he will recoup all his investment on his few tenants within a year? Have you heard anything called long-term investment?

Yet, some blinded bigot will still blame other tribes for what the kiilings being carried out by IPOB.

RSAV:
Experienced parents please comment.
My 3 year old daughter, she would be 4 years old in Feb, is sharp and very bright.
It only happened occasionally that she would pee on herself. Usually when engrossed in cartoon.

However, it the last 4 weeks, it has become an everyday occurrence.
She would even poo on herself!

I've talked to her, yet no serious change.
I just had a baby boy few weeks ago. Could this be responsible for the change in my daughter? If yes, how best can it be handled? It's already affecting her in school.

It is just a phase of her young age, if you are with her when she is watching the cartoon or getting the excitement that can lead to pee, just make sure you always remind her to go and wee, very soon she will get used to peeing when she is excited. Lastly, if she doesn't change, use the punishment method (like spanking, gentle beating etc).

Tinubu knows that, by detaining and charging these minors, he will be losing his reputation in the North ahead of 2027, that's why he has to release the kids with immediate effect.

Obi nor dey give shishi, he worked hard for his money, he didn't deal in drugs neither did he enrich himself with public funds nor make himself a godfather to exploit his successors.

People that work hard for their money don't squander it, it's people that loot public fund or enrich themselves from other people's sweat that can afford to lavish it anyhow.

EreluRoz:
I'm really sorry Nigerians I thought asiwaju was the best from what I was told, I genuinely like him and wanted him to be the best president ever but I was disappointed.

I want to ask, why do I feel guilty each time I see people lamenting bitterly kos I supported asiwaju? Should I be feeling this guilt or I'm just overthinking things?

I salute your courage for expressing your apology and disappointment in Tinubu.

Despite that this man concedes to the govt 70k proposal and jettisoned his 250k minimum wage demand, Tinubu could still not let him go scot free? His crime is that he led a nationwide strike that embarrassed the President and made workers shut down the power grid for 24 hours. Now he must pay for it.

They closed the border against food but open it for terrorists to the extent that terrorists are having free way in and out with ease and even have guts to kill their soldiers. It's okay.
