Stamp duty is a form of tax levied on some instruments especially during the sale of a house for the registration of change of ownership. You also pay stamp duty on your debit card. Stamp duty has absolutely nothing to do with POSTAGE STAMP which is an instrument to denote the the payment of service charge you pay for availing yourself of NIPOST's Services e.g. sending a letter. Even though both words have STAMP as constituent part, they simply do not mean the same thing. Stamp duty is a tax which is always collected by the REVENUE while postage stamp charges are paid for postage services [NIPOST], and may also be taxed.

NIPOST IS TRYING TO BE A ROGUE. They want to usurp the statutory right of FIRS.

Not true, it means that you didn’t read the bill or NIPOST submission. You just ran with the miss leading headline and didn’t bother to read the details. This is what FIRS is hoping majority of people do.

It is FIRS that is trying to draw a cloud over the issue.

NIPOST in the Amendment and arguments clearly states that collection of stamp duty does not belong to them, they are merely seeking this amendment to exclude the sales of postage stamps from the stamp duty act.

FIRS wants to collect stamp duties as well as well as control the sales of postage stamps both physical and electronic ones and NIPOST felt it is their job to do so.

The rogue here is FIRS. Go back and read the bill or NIPOST response about their amendment on the first post.

vertueptime:
Lol stamp is a form of tax itself, so u cannot tax tax, dats double tax

How is stamp a form of tax?

It more of payment for services rendered. Since NIPOST are the one rendering the services of delivery the mails, they should be the one collecting the payment and remitting same to the Federal Government.

Can FIRS go to immigration office to collect money paid to process International Passports? What about the collection of fees paid to procure Driver's license?

boy just too cute


the mama wet abandon am go dy regret am now

Forget that story, you know they say fame attracts a multitude...

The mother will come from no where and claim legal right to him and his estate, concocting a big story why she was away or how the boy’s father ‘stole’ the boy and drove her away.

Anywhere there is free money to be made with little or zero labor, strange things happen and some will stop at nothing to get their hands on the free cash.

Illuminatiguy:
I want to join the Illuminati, link me up

They have a website google is your friend. I doubt if it is worth the bad rep people in Nigeria are giving it.

From reading the info on their site, it appear to be University sorority group....but don’t quote me, this is someone looking from outside inward.

BERNIMOORE:
in all her videos with sahara reporters did she ever cry,? No, but the latest omr on 26th she cried and was sobered

O boy na wao for you oh!

So na cry & sober reflection bi your criteria to cipher lies from the truth?

Hope you don’t apply that criteria to your daily dealings with people.

BERNIMOORE:
I am vindicated, when I exposed sahara reporters video i was called names but now nko?

I watched that Sahara report video, where she stated that she is been coerced to confess and that she will not do it.

If what she said in that video is now a lie, there is truly no bases to conclude that her actual confession is the truth.

An objective trial of facts will not take anything this lady said seriously including her prior accusations.

Let’s fold our arms as she mentioned these ‘powerful politicians and pastors” in court. But am not holding my breath, because all these are shams and no name will be mentioned or ‘made’ public....this matter will just die ‘as is’ :sad.

Deicide:
Yeah cause their are fake unicorns real ones must exist to! you are the one thats actually ignorant #UseYourBrain

Unicorns are mythical creatures as such, they don’t exist, so you don’t have to prefix the word ‘fake’ to unicorn to buttress the fact that they are fake. Simply say Unicorn, and everyone in-the-know will understand that, you are referring to the fake, non existing mythical creature.

You saying fake unicorn underscore the fact that, you don’t even know what you are talking about. What else do you want to make up? Maybe ‘Fake’ Santa Claus? To justify your lack of understanding and worthless exercise to show that there are no ‘real’ Santa Claus?

Use your own advice #UseYourBrain.

saraki2019:
IT BEAT TO MY IMAGINATION WHY SOMEONE WILL STILL REMAIN A CHRISTAIN DESPITE THE FAKE AND UNFULFILLED PROPHECISES said by many pastors and prophets who claim that God spoke though them,

i still don't know why someone will still hold to that faith amids of all this

Just delete this post, it shows your depth of ignorance might just be beyond comprehension.

Let me give you some analogies:

Does the existence of fake phones invalidate the fact that, there are genuine ones?

What about fake drugs vi-as-vi genuine drugs?

Or fake investment schemes vi-as-vi genuine ones?

I guess you get the drift, no point making an endless list to show how ignorant your post is.

Greatzeus:
The truth is why would I want to unlock a phone that is mine? Wont I just enter the pin or password?
Most phones that are being unlocked by phone engineers at computer village and other places are stolen or bought from a phone thief.
It would be good if there is a law prohibiting unlocking of phones without receipt.

Have you ever forgotten and had to reset the password to any of your emails, web portal, etc before? The answer to that, will let you know that, there are legitimate reasons, why people will want to unlock their phones.

duduwest:
Nobody above mistake but at least you've learn your lesson. Always make sure what they brought to you is not stolen one.

There is no law that backs that.

Do you take your car receipt to the mechanic for it to be worked upon? What about your fridge, TV, etc...They are just extorting the guy. All he has to prove that, he is a valid technician and he does not have any involvement with the culprits.

millomaniac:
Bros you you are taking this too personal. When you realize that the customs boss is a civil servant then we can talk.

There is no point debating civil services with someone that don't have a clue about basic service organization in Nigeria.

Please look up the definition of civil service...this is a Wikipedia definition:

"The civil service is a sector of government composed mainly of career bureaucrats hired on professional merit rather than appointed or elected, whose institutional tenure typically survives transitions of political leadership"

The highest civil service position in Nigeria are Permanent Secretaries who serve for four years and Directors who serve for eight years, all renewable and none of these are appointed by the President, they are as a result of career progression from within the ranks and they all abide by the Federal Civil Service Commission of Nigeria laws.

Col. Hameed Ibrahim Ali (Rtd), is not a civil servant, but a Minister who is a political appointee of the President and does not have a tenure and be fired anytime, any day and without cause, reason or explanation. The President chooses whoever he wishes to occupy that position and it is not as a result of any progression from within the ranks and this political appointee heads the civil service ministry. This is how the constitution is organized.

Ali does not answer to the Federal Civil Service Commission of Nigeria, a body that oversees all civil servants in Nigeria.

These are some wiki page references...., sorry this is not personal. I doing this for posterity, someone tomorrow by google this and I do not want your ignorant post be their learning reference...

Chiedu4Trump:
She referred to politicians not god of men

These are Otobo's own words in the 'confession' he made in Suleiman's church in Edo State...that she was sponsored by....“very strong and powerful politicians and pastors”.

she also said....she succumbed to the manipulation of the politicians and pastors because she was told it would help her career.

The tape is online, google it and listen.

Chiedu4Trump:
Sharia Reporters embody what is called "Brown Envelop Journalism".

This video was made July last year.

She came to Suleimans Church this year.

Please these are lies.

Did this Suleiman story not burst when he spoke against the fulani herdsmen?

This gal was paid by Buhari's cabal to lie.

The Moslems are making a mockery of the gospel, with the aid of our Pastorenuers.


If we remember when Yar-Adua was sick, the Moslems called Christian preachers to pray for him.

With Buhari's illness notice that they did not bother.

You know why, they realised that they are all Yahoo Pastors.

And you think Suleiman is more powerful than the Buhari Cabals?

If she was sponsored by the cabals, she will not spend a night behind police cell and the case will not go to court.

We Christians are our own enemies...let’s use common sense and expose these fake men of God.

Suleiman Sheepie will come here and defend him, but did they really stop to think that; by the falsed confession, Suleiman is accusing the government and powerfull Pastors been the ones against him and using Otobo? Why drag other Pastors into the mess he got himself into?

My favorite question that no one can answer is; who are these powerfull men of God in Nigeria she referenced in her forced confession? Now, if this was a different thread, a post about powerfull men of God in Nigeria; you will agree that, names like: Adeboye, Chris, Kumuyi, Oyedepo, Joshua, Ayo, Tunde, etc....which of these was conniving with Otobo?

I think to unravel this; the Polic should arrest Otobo for making a false police report about been kidnapped and given concoction to drink, etc and prosecute her to the fullness. You can’t just cast an apprehension our christdom because you and your Apostle want a soft landing over whatever both of you got yourselves into.

millomaniac:
Bros you got it wrong. Customs is a civil service, they serve the people. Melaye and Co are representatives of the people. The customs boss should have received them well. Dino is right. just that the President's relationship with the former military customs boss is nepotic.

You are twisting this to suite your narrative.

Custom Boss Ali is not a civil servant; he is a political appointee who serves at the pleasure of the President. He answers to the President and can be fired by him anytime and at will.

Yes, Dino represents the people; but he serves at the will of the people and can be fired anytime by the people.

I will not like to go into your citation of ‘nepotic’ that will be a diversion, put if you look at the Nigeria constitution very well, the President have the constitutional right to chose whoever he wants in his carbinet, the only restriction is the geographical and state representation as indicated in the constitution. The office of the Presidency is not hindered by the doctrine of nepotism as other heads of departments are.

The original post I was responding to mentioned Ali been fired by his Boss, if this had happened in the USA and my response was to refute that. You have not been able to refute my arguments. Constitutionally the people cannot fire Ali, not in Nigeria and not even applicable in the USA, the post’s assertions that I was responding to are blatantly false.

obinoral1179:
with this statement this Ali or what is his name should be booted out but our senator are just dog that can't bite.... Tell that to a USA senator and your employer will face the music...... We need to build institutions that will work not humans like Ali and the senator.... Ali just rubbish the whole 109 constituency in this country.

Not true, you are pulling stuff out of your ass.

Ali’s Boss is the President, In Nigeria just like in the USA, the President will not fire any of his heads of department because of an encounter with a Senator or a Senate committee.

Those two arms of government sees themselves as co-equal; Dino was foolishly trying to elevate the Senate above the Executive branch of government and any President will applaud any of his/her head of department who put such arrogant Senator(s) in their place and remands them that, they are co-equal.

-I Fůcking shave 2wice ina week.

-It itches so fůcking bad the first two days making me feels so bloodyfūcking terrible.How do you fůcking deal with the itching?

Stop using cheap razor, Gillette Fusion is among the best, apply after-shave when you are done...

Yes! it’s going to be painful, but the advantages supersedes the momentary pains...after all you are a man and can take the momentary burning sensations.

mammanbawa:
So she should fvck him cos he helped her. Some men are goats

Since she has been bringing other men to the house for rendezvous, it means the lady is a cheerful giver and that.

It is possible that, the reason she did not give the guy his share of the goodies might not be unconnected with the fact that, the guy is harboring her free & as such the guy will not pay for services rendered, they have become too familiar, plus she does not want to appear ‘cheap’ to the guy.

It is good he kicked her out, more importantly for turning his house into a brothel without even paying for rent.

If you comment your reserve, I think I will see and wait.

Lomprico2:
You mean predictions.

When a prophet prophesy, he/she do use words like 'might' or 'may' or 'should', they tell you what is going to happen HOHA!

Like;
Buhari is going to die in 2018!!
Lai mohammed is going to have cancer of the mouth!!
Etc.

Jokes apart, the part where Ibori will be appointed an ambassador is truly a prophecy and even a miracle.

drdeola001:
Daddy freeze is just one dumb ass of a false teacher and end time Antichrist.
All he waits for is any news that makes him condemn men of God and the church of Christ.
For a man who cannot maintain his marriage and is about marrying a divorcee I don't need to be told he has nothing to offer but cheap popularity .
I wish him and his sheepies goodluck.

Can you point to one perfect man or prophet in the Bible?

Is he not He that said, He will use the dumb things of the earth to confound the wise?

Hosea was a serie divorcee, but God used him.

Rehab was a harlot, but God used her.

Balaam donkey was dumb, God spoke through it.

Noah was a drunk who slept in nude, but God used him.

Abraham willingly gave out his wife to be abused and be slept with, God used him.

Rebekah was the first mail order bride and very manipulative, but God used her.

Sarah manipulated her husband to sleep with her maid and hated her thereafter, but God used her.

Rachel has an irresistible urge to steal, but God used her.

Reuben was a pervert, who even slept with his father’s concubines, but God used him.

Moses have a short temper and very easy to get angry, but God used him.

Miriam had jealousy issues and very greedy, but God used her.

David was an adulterer, but God used him.

Solomon was a sex addict, but God used him.

Saul was feeled with anger, depression and was even paranoid, but God used him.

Paul was a murderer, but God used him.

Peter was a liar and Deceptive, but God used him.

Judas was a thief, but God used him.

If you always wait for a well kept, upright and decent man or women before you are receptive, you will always miss the move of God...He even said many many accomplished prophets and teachers who do miracles in His name are not called by Him and he does not know them.

Always cross check the message not the messenger with the Bible, if their message does not have any scriptural backing, the Bible said, they are not speaking of the Lord.

Is there anyone here with an extra life that we can donate to this science student? Cause he obviously ain't got none. Dude reacts to everything.

How many lives have you donated to yourself?

You obviously react to almost all his reactions.

zeko172:
Maybe u guys should go on youtube and watch the video of what actually transpired between the two,the girl actually recorded d incidence,then u will know this guy is just a blatant liar

Do you have the link to the full video? Or are you talking of the highly edited and filtered versions she posted to make herself look good?

If she is saying the truth and have nothing to hide, why edit the videos?

When is the part two of this moving coming out?

Next time, please make it a little believable;

Health care privacy laws prohibits Doctors and medical professionals from disclosing health records and test results to third parties without the written consent of the individual.

kenevision:
OP, here lies your answer.

Any baby born on a flight assumes the citizenship of the country that owns the flight, as the flight is considered an extension of the country's territory.

So in this scenario, the child is a French citizen, haven been born inside Air France, irrespective of the geographical definition of the flight at the said time.

Not true, UK does not have derivative citizenship.

Children given birth to within UK, can only acquire citizenship if the parents are citizens or if they have indefinite leave to remain.

The citizenship of such a child is determined by a number of factors e.g.

The country the airline is registered, the country whose airspace the airline was flying through when the birth occurred, country to which the parents are citizens, the laws of each of these countries.

Many times, such a child is eligible for citizenship in multiple countries. The place of birth shown on the birth certificate will be “In The Air”, many people carry this type of birth certificate today.

If it occurs over an international airspace; the factors to be considered is the country of registration of that Airline, the laws of that country and the country of citizenship of the parents.

When it come down it, unless you guys signed a prenup, it does not matter whose name are on the documents.

If the properties were acquired during the marriage, it is subject to equitable redistribution upon divorce, just get a good lawyer.

Practically, the choice depends on, what you want to protect and exposure of each individual. Some couples transfer the property to the other, if one is too exposed to liabilities; this way if the chickens come home to rouse, the properties are out of reach.

Some do it to reduce or eliminate estate taxes or to increase the leverage of one party.

Bottomline, is if you aim is to keep the other away in the case of divorce, sign a prenup and don’t do statutory marriage; otherwise it does not matter whose name is on the documents.

nextstep:
So... how do you tell a lady you want to marry her?

The alternative is you just setup the wedding, tell your people, tell her people to keep it secret, and drag her to it unwittingly? I don't get...

I don’t thing that is the case here.

From the writup, the lady is aware of the up coming wedding and they both are preparing towards it.

He must have pop the question about wanting to marry her informly and casually and the lady must have agreed, given the fact that she is preparing for the marriage.

Her beef seem to be that, there was no formal marriage and most likely, no ring.

When did Nairaland become supreme court or abi court of appeal?

Ok, i see you have passed the verdict, so can we now go over to the next topic.

Buhari

That in itself is why her story is unbelievable.

She was the one who first brought the matter to the court of public opinion instead of the court of justice.

The guy have every right to response to her in her chosen forum and the public, who were sleeping jeje still analyzing the fallout of OBJ letter to PMB have the right to judge the matter brought before them, more so since both parties have presented their case.

Though indication have it that, after the submission of his case; the lady sensing that her previously submitted case and ‘evidence’ are falling apart appear to be supplementing the records with new updates; but public jury have become suspicious of her tactics because her video are fully edited, filtered and audio cut off in certain portion and only portions she deem necessary are been released by her.

here to observe comments...

FlirtyKaren:
in the video, i noticed the driver's door was still open as he left the car with his boxers showing, when she was complaining he had locked her side of the car.

and again, when a door is on child lock, shebi you know it can be opened from outside but not from inside?

i'm not saying the driver is guilty as accused but i just want all the parties involved and their stories to be well understood.

I have a problem with why he touched her against her will.

she told him clearly - do not touch me, if you touch me. but he still went ahead and grabbed her and that caused her to scream.

it's in the video.

According to the driver and her story, she seized his keys and was holding on to them.

If you truly don’t want people to touch you, maybe a good advice is not to hold their property.

She must have refused to come out of the vehicle wanting instead to remain inside, while she wait for the cab she called and the guy is having none of it, hence he started driving home since he live in the same estate...don’t know if it was a wise decision to drive home.

We should all know that, Uber or Taxify drivers are under no obligation to drive us; they are independent contractors and chooses whether to or not to and can cancel the trip anywhere or time..you don’t get to pay them and might be able to sue them, their decision to abandon you endangers you or leads to any harm; but if they say, to get out of their vehicle and you see they mean business, please compile, get out so you can stay alive to fight another day.
