idiiot, how much are we supposed to pay before ? A country that has the lowest minimum wage and it's citizens are in darkness (worst mw/h per person) in electricity.

Say it how much is enough for a greedy govt that does nothing for it's citizens.

Even USA is just 16%. China is 11%. Kenya is 7%. But 10% is not enough for a govt raping it's citizens left and right.

One day all you Apc supporter will be shot dead for defending suffering and gas lighting people. I will personally pull the trigger.

Degenerate numbskull like yourself.....10% of what.....how many people are paying taxes....there are businesses registered over 20,30 yrs without paying a dime in tax but are still in business.
Nigeria has one of the lowest tax to GDP figures in the world and here you are yapping whatnot about paying taxes...... nigerians are generally averse to paying taxes with the belief that since we have oil,govt should do everything,tell me which country would grow like that.
There is already emerging data that about 46% of Nigerians earn below 100k monthly....that's already a huge number out of the taxable bracket because they are already tax exempt.

princemaths:
yes 10% before it was zero taxes you claimed. And why will people pay doing their business pay tax? You don't even know how taxes work. And yet you're here spreading stupidity.

You think govt is supposed to knock on peoples door to ask for tax. ? Go read online the difference types of tax and how the govt collects it and stop spreading foolishness here.

An imbecilic whelp like yourself can't decipher not paying enough taxes isn't same as not paying taxes at all, something as basic as this is too difficult for you to comprehend.

princemaths:
Your Brain will be better off with organ harvesters because you can't even use it.

You don't pay tax in Nigeria they deduct it. And they don't give any receipt to you.


So they can hire nicampooops like you to gaslight the public into believing they don't pay tax.

Each time you deposit money In the bank they deduct vat,

make a call they deduct vat,

if you receive salary from the govt or any organisation into the bank they deduct their PAYE

buy any imported goods and you pay extra for custom duties.

Paying tax isnt by choice but by force. It's incorporated into everything and you can't escape it.

What vat is being deducted from your fintech adaptation for your daily transactions.....you lie effortlessly like you can't even breathe without dropping one.

The agro commodities you buy,how much vat is being charged,you may be the real maverick to limited cognitive elements but not on an enlightened forum like this........the tax to GDP ratio of Nigeria is one of the lowest in Africa,so you want to argue that too...... because some few people in 200m pays taxes or few corporates doesn't mean we have a robust tax system.

princemaths:
you're extremely stuppid didn't you claim we don't pay taxes now you've quickly changed mouth and now talking of compliance rate.

Look at the business/cooperative taxes at 20%. That's too much For a country where nothing is subsided. The end customer me and you are paying for those taxes in high cost. Keep fooling yourself.

IAM very sure you are collecting 20k as salary and here defending rubbish.

You inredeemable fool!! If 10 people are paying taxes out of a 100 that should,what does that tell you?

With a country of 200m people,juxtapose our personal income tax receipts with that of Kenya or SA.

The argument is that our tax net isn't broad enough and we need to do that,I believe that's beyond your cognitive ability.

1Alex:
the problem is after generating the money through tax, it goes into the pockets of individuals and nothing can be done about it. Even when they are caught, they serve 4 months jail term and come out to enjoy the money.

The reason it's so is because you aren't paying enough tax and it really doesn't bother you who and how is stealing govt money but if govt forces you to pay tax through your noses....you will be forced to push for better accountability.....the only reason govt doesn't seem to care much about your wellbeing is cause govt isn't dependent on your tax.

You inredeemable fool.....if 10% is paying taxes out of a 100... What does that tell you.

I have seen people do business worth tens of millions without paying a dime to govt.....every body knows we don't pay enough taxes here in Nigeria that's why govt can choose to damn the consequences against your grievances because govt isn't dependent on your tax.

princemaths:
youre still saying we dont pay taxes in Nigeria. Typical APC sympathetic phrase meant to gaslight people.

Seems you want me to curse you.

We pay very similar tax rates with china who have 100x our GDP and pay more for everything than china, and you're here defending it.

Yet the govt provide nothing for the poor people it's taxing. No free feeding, no free health care. Can't even provide security, no social welfare.

Should I also mention the minimum wages?

The joke is on you,you and your myopic ilk....Did you in anyway bother to even read the data you put up there......what's China's population compared to ours,what's the compliance rate compared to ours,did you even bother to compare the VAT rates which has just gotten jacked up to 7.5% as it had always been 5%,the progressive tax at the top is still way higher than ours.

princemaths:
nonsense. you're looking for praises for a useless political student loan that won't last a year

Imagine students being sent 20k for upkeep. And you're here rejoicing whereas Kenya sends $300 for upkeep.

Once you see you're been defeated you'll start trying to gaslight about taxes. We don't pay taxes blalblah blah...yet our tax income per year is over 20billion.

In essence Nigerians pay more for everything, pay high taxes and get nothing back from the govt except stealing and more gaslighting.

People like you ought to be destroyed with the bad leaders you're defending. Yes you'll deserved to be wiped out. You've turned this country into the worst country on earth. Kia!

You are an irredeemable demented ideologue who sees nothing good in their own.....did Kenya start educational finance today or yesterday.

You are here foaming in the mouth about you paying taxes,how much tax do you pay compared to the average Kenyan..... Nigeria is a largely informal economy and majority still operate outside the tax net....even simple health insurance that should have been fir the benefit of all majority still kicks against it and find ways of avoiding it.

We have been going down the abyss for years and a lot of things we should have put in place long before now weren't done and this govt is making ingenious effort to correct the lacuna,every reasonable person with a brain knows everything can't be done all at once and we only need to start from somewhere but degenerate hate filled looser like yourself don't even have the most basic understanding of governance.

MadPolitician:
This shady and uninspiring puppet

The worst speaker ever in the history of Lagos state . He reeks everything incompetence!!

No,I am not Anu obidient and can never be !!

Kelklein:
They have started sealing the mouths of those that would have made noise online in 2027.. Daniel Bwala, Reno, Lere Olayinka, more to follow.

This country na cruise abeg. Na hustle everybody dey.. most of us wey dey make noise online, no be as we take love the country, na food everybody dey find..

What stops you from making your own noise to gain relevance so you can be recognised?

princemaths:
typical frog eye supporter defending stupidity as usual.

Have you checked how much electric bill is in china ? N18 in china compared to N250 per unit in Nigeria.

And for the new launched student loan. That is a complete joke. what is the amount loan given to students.? Plus it's not even up to 6 months. Lol.

Student loan in the US reach N50 million or $30k per year.

Poor people in Us get free food from govt and monthly $800 free benefits.
Plus many other credit benefits. You can never go hungry there.

In essence all basic things are cheap, if they're not govt pays, subsides it, or loan it

But in Nigeria it's the reverse.

even the middle class can't feed Themselves. And yet they still spend all their salaries on bills and taxes with no govt support.

And don't quote me saying no tax in Nigeria. That's the biggest gaslighting ever!

almost Every country in the world pay taxes including Nigeria.

You people will keep comparing apples and oranges by only picking out the narrative that best soothes your despicable inebriated self debasing ego.

Electricity prices per kWh in china is about 7 cents which brings you to about 119 naira but it would be downright criminal to refuse to mention how much subsidy the govt pays in electricity subsidy and how much tax the Chinese pay to their govts.

You delusional deliquent isn't paying any tax in your own country but expect govt to provide everything free.....

You call a student loan that was just launched barely 6 months ago as useless despite already doing about 100b in funds and their are already testimonies to its effectiveness......you are nothing but a preposterously incorrigible empty head.....did America get where they are today in a year or
2.....can you live in same America and get away with your brazen disregard of your basic civic responsibility of paying taxes.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
You're the one spreading propaganda.
Joe Biden acknowledged the potency and efficiency of the Houthis missile systems. Saying that airstrikes ain't working against the Houthis.
Read news and get informed.

https://www.cnbc.com/2024/01/19/red-sea-attacks-biden-admits-airstrikes-on-houthis-arent-working.html

https://apnews.com/article/red-sea-yemen-houthis-attack-ships-f67d941c260528ac40315ecab4c34ca3

You truly don't know anything!! Ho study on the American military -industrial complex.....they push all the narratives to keep everyone on the edge and justify selling arms to the saudis to keep attacking Yemen.....Iran supports the houthis to checkmate Saudi who are their major arch rivals in the region and all this propaganda is to keep everyone busy about how dangerous Iran is when in actual fact Iran doesn't even have their time.

The houthis cannot blockade the red sea as they would be leveled mins.....a few isolated attacks can be successful,but you should know it's in cahoots with their enablers,the CIA and the Pentagon.

The middle east needs to remain unstable for America to keep smiling to the bank.

WriterNig:
The Houthis, a ragtag militia have also blockaded the Red Sea for a year now and chased the US carrier battle groups and other NATO countries navies from accessing the Red Sea.

The US military is overhyped and overpriced. This is what Trump is trying to fix. To cut down excessive spending.

The US pays $8000 for a single shell, Russia makes the exact same shell for $600. This is why the US military budget is overbloated.

Stop listening to propaganda and stop displaying your ignorance with such impudence.... Do you know what a blockade of the red sea means for world trade,intact it's the presence of American bases just across the SE in Djibouti that has checked the madness of those houthis......the red sea is a heavily militarised zone with America,UK,france, china,Italy even Qatar and UAE all having military bases there.

That story up there is nothing but propaganda,if the houthis had that much capabilities,they would have been marching on Riyadh by now.

Na wa.

Funny thing is there are women that won't mind being with him despite all these.

Balthasar you will never know peace eh!!!

He needs a sex therapist ASAP!!!

I am shocked they even still allow a woman ride with him in same car.

kasim155:
Hmmmm he just koba himself. He professional reputation is already in the mud. Within this period, the rate of divorce will be high in Equatorial Guinea. Almost 400 homes are already in dismays.

That guy is a living legend!! He demystified the mystery of the female character and has made brotherhood more aware how infantile they all are.

princemaths:
keep quiet, nothing is free or cheap in Nigeria. electricity is cheaper in advanced countries Singapore and china is way higher than in Nigeria.

What you call cheap education is just the entire school cost broken down to give illusion you're paying less. After paying tuition fees you'll still pay hostel, feeding, and buy materials.

Most of you here are very ignorant. No country goes far without subsiding basic necceistiy of life for it's citizens.

As rich as USA it still pays subsidy on fuel, offer long term students loans, and gives many social benefits and credit to it's Citizens.

But you guys want to kill Nigerians with billing without any cushioning effect and have audacity to gaslight them they're not paying enough.

Selective amnesia as usual.....its so obvious how unintelligent you are for saying electricity is cheaper in the advanced countries

hasn't tinubu launched same student loans you are worshipping those advanced countries for.....rather than appreciate him and urge him to do more,you start castigating him.

Are you aware govt is still paying subsidy on the electricity you use.....those countries you are praising for subsidising basic necessities for their citizens,are you aware how much tax they pay.....govt is trying to initiate tax reforms and it's still same you procrastinating and crying blue murder on how tinubu wants to tax you to death when infact you aren't even paying any tax whatsoever.

It's easier to criticise but very difficult for you to think of how to make things better.

Zico5:
Even common electricity, Tinubu has turned it to gold. I remember my days in University then when electric stove is the main standard for all the students. Hardly can u find any student without electric stove but today, nobody can use electric stove because of draconian policy of one drug addict. Nigeria is gone.

Go abroad where electricity is free nah!! You are the reason why many tertiary institutions can't pay their energy bills till date because you were all used to and felt entitled to everything free without wanting to pay that's why everything govt is comatose......if you had been paying what was due and fair,we still wouldn't be complaining about power outages today.

Education is one of the cheapest in Nigeria that's the problem that govt has been having with doctors who train here for almost free and then take their expertise abroad to benefit another society in the name of greener pastures,which ever side you decide to look at it,they both have a point.

You want govt to provide petrol, education,health,jobs,free roads etc but don't ever want to pay tax.

mrvitalis:
Productivity of a state is judged by GDP and GDP per capita... Go to school and stop embarrassing yourself

FAAC +IGR is share of national cake not productivity don't they teach you people Basic economics

It's no more a surprise why APC tanked our economy

You are quite correct,the topic and the data presented are at variance with each other.

Richtaiwo:
What the fvck is this one saying? Is he trying to explain why the entire SE is the most unproductive zone?

North West — ₦1.41 trillion
North Central — ₦1.34 trillion
North East — ₦911.65 billion
South East — ₦823.54 billion

He is quite correct because the topic and the data presented are at variance with each other....I think the data presented should be Faac allocation figures and igr for each region....it's really hard to believe the NE and even the NW generates more revenue than SE....it's really not possible.

Thundafireseun:
Igbo women are still the finest google am

There are beautiful ladies all over Nigeria...Mr Igbo man!!

busterr:
The same CNG cars Tinubu and his APC dummies are trying to force on Nigerians??
True true, Tinubu is out to kill the whole of Nigerians before December
A fucking criminal with zero conscience

Did you read the part the post mentioned that it's majorly cause many of the tanks have reached their end life phase.....the dynamics in Malaysia are different from ours and cost of pms is far higher there than here.

Nigeria commenced wide scale usage of GSM even ahead of the USA and the developed world were very critical we wouldn't succeed without fixed telephony infrastructure but here we still are 24 years later.

Mystic216:
It’s a big lie
Anambra and Enugu no fit suffer if the allocation ends today

All these propaganda to paint the government good, won’t sell
Propaganda never brings positive impact on citizens

This government should be easy on the media propaganda and get to work
Alleviate the citizens from unprovoked hunger and unnecessary hardship

These are the simplest thing every citizen of any nation would ask from their government

Why is Nigeria own so bad

So budgit is a govt agency? Now budgit data is lies because it mentioned Anambra and Enugu in not doing enough in terms of IGR.....but if it was castigating govt you would accept hook,line and sinker and even start foaming in the mouth on how inefficient tinubu is.

We know Una..... hypocrisy at best.

Egalitarian1:
Good one.

Let's keep sanitising the cyber space!

Just hope that my friend the Damn Niggar inventor @Slamonir abi na wetin be that him moniker again wouldn't pick offence.

Those guys are playing a huge role in foreign remittances....those guys sustained a lot of homes during COVID and this hard tinubu times.

Whether you like it or not it's the truth!!

agulion:
As if he died recently, somebody that died about two weeks ago but the useless gvt decided to cover it up,

He was just officially declared dead but they all knew he wouldn't make it.

Why is she wearing jewelry just a day after the husband died while still in mourning?

PrinceOfLagos:
But when tinubu was wrongly declared winner of the presidential election, shares crumbled, economy nose-dived and so many billionaires suddenly became millionaires

You see, it's not about snatching power and running away with it, what matters most is having the power and knowing what to do with it to better the life of the people that you claimed that you loved.

Tinubu has failed , he has failed woefully and disgracefully. He's obviously the worst president on earth and the most wicked after Satan.

The joke is on you ...you see how in sane climes elections are very expensive and needs to be funded by some people and organisations who would have their interests protected if their candidates win....that's why people are against fubara's fight with Wike.....somebody single handedly made you gov with no contribution from even your father,you then get the power and then start spitting pepper in your benefactors eyes and you expect Wike not to fight back or just keep quite......what is wrong is wrong,if fubara feels his principles are being compromised,he could have immediately refused the offer or better still resign after getting into office.

Built2last:
Iran should brace up for what is coming

There will be a regime change in Iran


Netanyahu will be used by Trump to execute that

Iran threatened retaliation on Israel. They will shelve that idea now because Trump has not forgiven sleepy joe for giving Iran 4 billion dollars

Wait, did Netanyahu know Trump will win. Because he fired his chief of defence which had the ears of Biden and Harris.

He had tried sacking the guy a while ago, Biden refused, yesterday he did.

There will be nothing of such ...both would behave themselves now especially that spoilt brat called Israel.....war isn't cheap and Israel can't finance a war against Iran on it's own and trump wouldn't be ready to keep throwing Americans money about also Iran won't be the aggressor because they know the US would come in on the side of Israel .....biden was a really terrible POTuS,he is one of the major reasons for the escalation in the first place and that's one of the reasons they lost.

Nazgul:
Over 500k to $1. Naira isn't doing bad o. Cos if naira should reach that level, omo, the kind of revolution that would happen go loud.

They can feed themselves and are content with what they produce locally,that are far less dependent on imports unlike us,who would complain about our local rice having stones and would cry once govt bans foreign rice or treat garri with scorn and would prefer to eat foreign noodles and pasta.

Righteousness2:
🤣
The Mullahs in Iran know this is Bad nees for them and their Nuclear.
The Mullahs in Iran understand this is bad News for their Fight against.
They Know ISRAEL will unhindered now!

First reaction from Iran at the news Trump is headed for VICTORY!

On Israel being unhindered it's rather the opposite......trump won't give Israel the type of endless piles of money and weapons biden is giving them.....if Israel wants to fight and kill all Arabs on the face of the earth,she should do so with her own money and men but Iran would actually be deterred also from further escalation which would being about a balance in the region..... that's what makes trump different from the Dems!!

IGBOPROMISE1:
Will you keep quiet! ‘Taking a cue from the leaders in the SW’ my black ass! The Enugu governor is putting effort into revenue generation knowing the dearth of funds he faces in provision of projects in his state, and this has nothing to do with the SW! The way you talk, one would think you lot invented the board of internal revenue for states!

Why are you wailing Mr wailer,it's on record that SW states are far ahead of SE states in IGR generation.....what's wrong if they borrow a leaf from each other.....that's the problem many people have a problem with your political ideology.....bloody Igbo supremacists!!

IGBOPROMISE1:
Just hope they find enough funds to complete all these ambitious projects! Just completing the smart green schools for the 260 wards will gulp 260 billion naira! There should be a medium-term development plan for the state….say for the duration of Mbahs’ 1st term, in which they should aim to complete all the proposed projects. There’s no need to rush to complete them all at a go and in just one or two years!

I’m impressed with governance in Enugu state so far!

Those obidients won't like this,it's LP or nothing.

CrossRhodes:
