FoodRe: When I Say Things Are Cheap In Nigeria, Lots Of People Will Argue With Me by Lekan239(m): 2:37pm On Feb 18
advanceDNA:
U just think food is cheap because u relocated to nigeria with higher purchasing power than most Nigerians…and may probably still get your benefits or pensions

There is a large number of pple that the 500naira banana u posted is a luxury they can only afford once in a while…..average nigerian salary nor pass 50-80k ooo

cars probably looks cheap to you too … but the average nigeria cant save up to get a 18 year old camry anymore that used to sell for 1.9M but is now 10M…

Ut Its fine that your pov is different shaaa
who told you, even aboki that push wheelbarrow in th market to a distance of 200m will demand and take 500 to 1k naira from you. Many of those people u see working doing okay, maruwa, abokis are leaving large and building good ous in there hometown o

SportsRe: CAF Suspends Senegal Coach Pape Thiaw Over AFCON Final Walk-off Protest by Lekan239(m): 8:02pm On Jan 19
I was waiting for this news. On a serious note, they shouldn't have given Senegal the cup, how can u spend 30min of the pitch not playing at your own will. Thry should be sanctioned for that, if not many nation will learn thay they can get away with such

Morocco was protected in this tournament and many officiating goes against there opponents, but this not the first we are experiencing this sort of officiating in football and it wont be the last either.

My conclusion, Senegal should be striped and the title give to the third place team.
PoliticsRe: ADC: Removing Tinubu In 2027 Only Way To Reclaim Nigeria by Lekan239(m): 2:23pm On Jan 17
Nigeria as turn to a ground where they just reclaim from pdp to APC and they are fighting each other just to reclaim it. You will think they have something meaningful you do when they get to power, but instead they just want to reclaim it so they can share the national cake for themselves and families too.

Seriously, don't excuse wrong things.

I ain't attacking anyone's tribe

Also, English football violence used to be far far worse 40 years ago. A lot more than fans attacking trams. A lot lot more

Plus you can rest assured the fans involved have been issued bans by the club and are probably on fa watchlists.

Make Nigeria do its own improvements


I no dey attack yourbas!

Yes, and that's what drives away investment from our football, and gives us a bad name in the eyes of the world.

Plus, remember how the English used to tolerate violence in their football...until something called Heysel, and another thing called Hillsborough happened, that woke them up.
the way it drives away investment from Liverpool FC when their fans scatter everywhere sland oppsition tram bus few years ago abi

Ezeama400:
Good reward you said ?

So protesting against a sitting government because of their archaic rules should come with an execution as a punishment ?

Be careful of what you you are supporting, just be very very careful!.
Well, you are known for supporting anything Islamic terrorism on this platform for ages, not surprised.
its happening everywhere na, even in the usa ICE are killing people using extreme high force and even the president gave rhem immunity to do anything dey wish to and they are jot following the American law. All over the world is not stable now. People choose what they want to see, some people can call what is happening in the usa proper and see no bad in it, while they will call what is happening in Russia bad etc. So people see and belive what they want and what they choose to believe. Not what is right or wrong.

There they practice more of individualism while we practice more of collectivism. Here we have supports, especially from families.
here its actually religion that is helping us o. Though those man of Gods are jot using it to enrich themselves. Sharing false hope, people still believing in 1 billion magical showing up in there account. That hope is what is still keeping many Nigerians going peacefully

PoliticsRe: 3 States Domesticate Harmonised Tax Laws Ahead Of Take-off by Lekan239(m): 12:03pm On Jan 02
DeLaRue:
The new tax law will actually help someone like you.

From yesterday, the basis on which your state government can tax you has become enshrined in the new law. They can't just turn up in your shop and slam you with any how tax, levies etc

If you're a small business I.e your yearly revenue/turnover is less than N100 million, you will not pay any company income tax (Federal Tax) on your profit. Beautiful!

However, you will pay personal income tax (STATE GOVERNMENT TAX) on any profit you make above N800,000 at a tax rate of between 15% and 25%. So, let's assume you sell clothes. Throughout 2026, your total sale (not profit) is N45 million. Under this new tax law, you will not pay any tax to the Federal government, and you'll not be required to remind any VAT. So you are completely FREE FROM FIRS wahala. Another beauty!

Now, let's assume again that out of your total 2026 sale if N45 million, your profit at the end of the year is N15 million. Your personal income tax (STATE GOVT TAX) will be around 20% of your N15 million profit minus N800,000, meaning you will only pay tax on N14.2 million of your profit. The reason N800,000 is subtracted from your profit before tax is calculated is because under the new tax law (unlike before), EVERY NIGERIAN IS ENTITLED TO N800,000 of tax-free income per year. So whatever your annual income/profit/salary is, whether it is N1 million or N1 billion, tax will not apply to N800,000 of it.

As you can see, for people who are not 100% against paying tax, the new tax laws are very fair to everyone. Infact, compared to the old tax law, the NEW TAX LAW SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCES THE TAX BURDEN ON SMALL BUSINESSES in order to encourage growth. The new law also provides clarity. There should be no more multiple taxation (though we know this is Nigeria) with different government agents turning up in you shop to ask for payment of different taxes, levies etc

The new tax law completely removes anyone earning less than N800,000 from paying ANY INCOME TAX.

This was not the case under the old law. Yet, even those who fall nto the 0% personal income tax category and stand to benefit significantly from the tax law are being completely deceived on social media that the tax law will affect them negatively.

It is incredible how some Nigerians just want their country to fail at all cost and will go to any length, including blatantly lying to cause fear and chaos.
The funny thing is that when I went to negotiate the 120k tax they gave me last year, even the tax officer admitted that they are just asking people to pay tax, yet there are no real benefits from the government. He openly said it himself. But he also said we still have to pay because that is the situation we find ourselves in Nigeria.
Now imagine this 20% of 14.2 million is 2.84 million. So I am expected to bring out 2.84 million and hand it over as tax. On top of that, if you calculate the stamp duties they collect on every transfer, that alone can easily add up to 1 million or more in a year.
What makes it worse is that many businesses are turning over 80 million or more yearly, yet their actual profit is barely 10%, even before expenses. This is because they are forced to keep prices very low due to the harsh economic situation in the country.
At this point, the government should either start building more prisons or be ready for businesses to shut down across the country, because pressure like this cannot continue without consequences. Where exactly did all the fuel subsidy money go?
PoliticsRe: 3 States Domesticate Harmonised Tax Laws Ahead Of Take-off by Lekan239(m): 8:55am On Jan 02
DeLaRue:
You have been told over and over again that unless you earn over N25 million per year, the new tax law will have no additional impact on you.

And if you run a business, you will not pay tax on your profits unless your profit exceeds N50 million naira.

Despite all this, you people still run to social media making noises about tax law! tax law!

What is the problem.

The rich people who didn't use to pay tax, and will now pay some tax are not even complaining.
Go and tell Ekiti State Govt this one na. I know what they did to me last year with this tax issue just for having a small shop at the market, without knowing my income,they brought 120k for me as tax, same way they gave other small business owners with just 12sqm shops. The crazy part is they said this year will be much higher bcus of the new tax law they will implement

doncartel:
Comrade Dangote in action. It’s like he wants to challenge what Bill Gates did in polio eradication.
He has therefore chosen #500 per liter fuel price as his own target to help Nigerians.

I would have directed him to 24-hour electricity but honestly this one is also important.
its true o, dangote can actually bid for the project to generate 24hrs supply electricity for us in Nigeria, then he start selling electricity. He might enter top 5 richest in the world... but to build and achieve 24hrs electricity plant is very much more expensive than the refinery. The refinery takes about 20billon dollars. Dabgote generating 24hrs supply in Nigeria would take another 80 to 100billon dollar or more.... realistically, I wish he can just invest in lagos and ogun plus ibadan. It will cost lesser than he built is refinery to generate 24hrs power supply in those region. And he can definitely make is money back
