The Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Timi Frank, has asked the Federal Inland Revenue (FIRS) and other federal government agencies not to drag themselves into the politics of 2019 general election.


“This is not the time to play politics with the issues of governance. Could it be another ploy to weaken Atiku ahead of his perceived ambition for 2019?” Frank asked.

While condemning the sealing of Intels by FIRS, Frank wondered why FIRS just realised the non-payment of tax by Intels and Export Free Zone also decided that Intels is operating illegally.
“It is pertinent to note that in the history since the establishment of Intels, no central government has ever brazenly persecuted Intels like this present government.

“The act of the FIRS, NPA, and FTZ as agencies of government is and can be seen to be a calculated attempt to humiliate Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.
“How come FIRS just realised the non- payment of tax by Intels? The export free zone just realised that Intels is operating illegally. If the agencies just realised all these , it means they have shown total failure in discharging their duties,” he stated.

Nigerians are terrible people. Selfishness is the bane of progress in this country. This so call Frank only speak out for Atiku because unethical business dealings by Intel favoured him. Instead of addressing and condemning the audacity of Intel, evading payment of mandatory taxes to the government, the dude is here daring the government. Most of these guys see the weakness of GEJ govt in tackling reprehensible behaviour of public office holders as norms for every successive government to employ. How sad!

Aside Asa, I don't know any other Nigerian new age musician

We are on the same page. Asa is world class others are noise makers who live fat on the docility of Nigerians. The so call A+ are the worst

Net Allocation for September 2017


Delta =N14,226,599,712.95


Akwa Ibom =N12,947,920,495.19


Rivers =N=12,458,897,649.55


Bayelsa =N10,887,663,196.75


A glance at September allocations for the states above, yet they still blame the federal government for their leaders' abysmal failures. What have they done with these monies? Personal gratifications

Of course, Nnamdi escaped to London and sacrificed his blind followers. Uzor Kalu's comment was apt

WILLING TOOLEWEDU MUSLIM WILLING TOOLANOTHER EWEDU MUSLIM

If you think I am joking, I dare you to go on the street with IPOB flag and share your success stories with us later.

All these 'charge and bail' lawyers should be ignored. A group has been proscribed 'terrorist'. Why still expend your energy insulting our sanity?


SMH...how low some peeps can stoop just to make money out of naived people.

Tale by the moonlight as told by Nnamdi Kanu's family. When Nnamdi Kanu beat his chest and bragged of crumbling the zoo, was he going to use his teeth? If not for a fact that he amassed weapons of destruction smuggled into the country through our compromised borders made possible by his sponsors.

Good job to the Nigerian security operatives for the recovery. Nigeria is bigger than anyone

zionmade1:
It wont take anything away from Atiku's wealth.
APC always in the business of increasing the popularity of their perceived enemies.

Good leaders do the right thing not the popular thing.

It beats my imagination why Nigerians are averse to good governance, once it affects our individual interest, the leader is the worst.

The bmw X7 is more than okay

Damn right bro! Am a sucker for BMW

Does not impress. It looks like something from 3D Digital Games.

Below is all time best or you give me a BMW

Nigerians dishonesty is endemic. Looks like the more churches and mosques we have, the more monster of humans we breed.

Religion is overrated in Nigeria

A lot of Nigerians misuse these words simply because they don't know they are wrong usage. Some try to hide behind their ignorance by using textspeaks. Its very common here - Nairaland.

'Being' and 'been' are the most commonly misused words among Nigerians. Sad!

Nigerian banks will always come up with verbal and paper initiatives to show that product development, brand and Sales teams are working but application of these initiatives is non-existence. It all end up in the archive

If you disagree ask Diamond Bank

The illness begins with:
• Fever
• Headache
• Muscle aches
• Backache
• Swollen lymph nodes
• Chills
• Exhaustion

Every disease seems to have similar symptoms, including HIV/Aids. I am wondering how we arrive at their various names

If this man didn't make that letter public, this meeting wouldn't have held at all; the issue would have been swept under the carpet

There are professional ethics in Corporate world. There are proper channel available to give your grievances attention. Ibe is a Minister and not a clerk or messenger in the ministry. If he makes effort to see the president, he would. No cabal can deny him that audience. He reports to the president not the press.
For Christ sake, Ibe is a professional. I don't think he leaked the document to the press in order to heat up the polity. If he did, he deserves sanction no matter how noble his intentions were.

Bros Jamb is the big thief here, exploiting students in many way from change of course, institution, regularization and others. These Nigerian institutions will cry over allowances from Federal Government which results to ASUU strike every 4 years. This is a medium for the school to make money and pay some of their bills sef. BTW i have not seen any school charge more than 5,500

I know of Polytechnic Ibadan charging N7,500 (UTME Form N2,500, Admin Charges N5,000)

I heard University of Medical Sciences, Ondo charges N12,500.
OOU charges N8,000

Is JAMB living in denial that institutions are charging more for Post-UTME?

I paid N5,500 for my cousin's Post-Utme at Adekunle Ajasin University. Imagine 15,000 students paid 5,500. Do the math.

I heard other schools pay more than 5,500

Apart from the assessment fee, most schools charge administrative and other charges.

Uwazurike's case was better. Nnamdi Kanu had bitten more than he could chew. He shot himself in the foot.


He dragged IPOB to the mud with his infantile and cowardly speeches and unnecessary chest-beating.


By the way, where is he now - the supposedly Mandela of Aba?

Explorers:
A U.S. Coast Guard crew from Alameda stopped a semi-submersible vessel carrying more than 8tons of cocaine in the Eastern Pacific Ocean last month the largest bust of its kind in Coast Guard history.

It worth over $500m

8tons of cocaine at a go is scary. That can ruin a continent. Am surprised with the amount involved, the security agents in charged could not be bought off. Thumbs up to them for their courage.

Girls should stop being stereotypical. For the fact that it didn't work for you, does not mean it won't work for the next person.

Look inward and see why it didn't work for you and reshape your thoughts and attitudes. We are what we attract

guy stop trying to impress, novice wan teach FBI there job. just negodu

You ended up saying nothing bro. Nigerians relish in finding fault but has no solution to proffer.

Evacuating the dead.


Investigators are still processing the festival site-turned-crime scene.

The FBI warned in the press conference on Wednesday that it would be some time before all of the evidence that was being collected was properly examined.

FBI lab technicians work at the scene of the massacre on Wednesday night.

Why is the FBI exerting energy collecting and examining evidence from the crime scene instead of expending more on human contacts in order to unravel the motive of the shooter? The Shooter was identified and found dead. There was stampede and the crime scene was compromised, there's every tendency for corrupt evidence.


Seems FBI has seen an opportunity to demand more money for their far-fetched inconclusive investigation. Someone enlighten me.

The dude was probably into the girl at first sight, but after a few closed up, the dude noticed some physical and emotional inadequacies of the girl. He manage to shrug off nicely but he could not, he scampered at last. The girl should move on instead of looking for the guy to pay him back. The guy owed her nothing. It was a date for Christ sake.

Gradual process of madness... start by making unspeakable gibberish. The best time to look for solution

Hello NL happy independence day. Just curious cos I work on part basis with an organisation where tax is been deducted from source just last week a colleague also on part time told me he was told at the internal revenue that we are not expected to be taxed as part time staff

Yes, you are expected to pay tax on any income earn. People on commission pay are not exempted as well

misano:
I see... Sorry... Some ppl nor just they try... It is well.

Nairaland moderators take pleasure in doing this all the time. I have given up on them.

Forbes has released the list for the best and worst cities for drivers in the world, where Lagos was ranked 3rd worst city for drivers in the world.

Dusseldorf, Germany came first as the best city for drivers with 20% congestion, 21.20 mph average speed. -According to an analysis of factors in 100 international cities, Dusseldorf, Germany is the best place in the world to be a motorist.

Lagos ranked 3rd and only African city on the list, has 60% congestion, 10.70 mph average speed. See full list below;

I opened a 'topic', sent a mail to you as moderator (lailasblog) to move the thread to frontpage for a wider view and opinions. Rather, you copied it to your blog space with minor amendment and moved same to Nairaland frontpage as Onyejemechimere (as originator). Shame on you for your untoward behaviour and dishonesty as Nairaland moderator

Also in consideration of the stats is the frequency and perception of road rage. Abusive and cussing tendencies of drivers and other road users
