Chai, what did I just read? He did not find a goat"s head to make isi ewu.. There should br a law to "put down" rabid dogs like this immediately even if he genuinely mad..
Baba, its no longer news he has Parkinson's disease. Not being able to stand up swifly is part of the symptoms which may be experienced by some patients. So what is the big deal. His cognizant and intellectual ability are not affected by the disease.
candidtalk: Indeed. Many of them knew nothing about Shettima previously and, in their prejudiced and bigoted minds, are now shocked and suicidal upon learning that a Northerner and "aboki" can be this eloquent and brilliant.
More heartache to come for them because I have always known Shettima to be a charming, eloquent and very engaging orator. Again, Asiwaju shows brilliantly that a leader is only as effective as those he chooses to work with him/her.
Giving the rate at which Naira is plummeting and the accompanying inflation, N620K monthly is not, in my opinion, enough for you to ignore a UK student visa. Before you know it, expenses will catch up with you and there would be hardly any difference compared to when you were earning 280K. Talking from experience.
The probability of 2 out of 100 of these ijiats mocking BAT of developing Parkinson disease in their 6th decade is 1.00. Then he will remember the day he mocked someone with that ailment. Coming to think of it, they are not mocking BAT alone, they are mocking all patients of Parkinson disease all overt the world including their own fathers and mothers. Awon omo ale.
Believeintruth: Look for a country seeking to pull itself out of a debt trap you need to encourage internal business activities that would lead to exports and not scare them. widening tax bracket now in Nigeria is shooting ourselves in the foot let me tell you. Already the informal sector is reeling under intense local and state government levies, even his daughter oversees one the tax operations as Iyaloja. Again business activities are taxed via VAT and also financial transactions are taxed also you pay tax on calls you make so really where do you want to tax in an economy that has lost it's elasticity?
Hmmm. Good points there. However further VAT increase may concentrate the burden on the private sector which employs a very large chunk of the poplation. It may also further discourage the already reluctant investors.
Like you said, almost everyone is paying tax already so what we should be discussing now is how to optimize the one being collected. Consider reducing cost of governace, contractors should be held accountable for the their job, ghost workers should be eradicated, fake oili importers collecting billions of Naira in subsidy should be hunted down etceteera.
It is my utmost beleive that if all these financial leakages are fixed there wont be the need to further increase the tax burden on the citizens either by way of VAT increase or bracket widening.
