And this guy seems to have something good going for him, the mystery of giving it all up at this point is far fetch. I find it very demonic for people to attempt to take their lives. I mean! How terrific and horrible could that be.

The problem is not about paying tax but seeing what your tax is being used for. What benefits does an average Nigerian get from the govt for paying tax. I dug my borehole myself, contribute money in my community to grade our roads, pay high bills to nepa for light that is not supplied.
What is my benefit for paying tax then?
Your sentiment is also a fact. But for govt running to continue, for the little basic amenities they manage to put in place to continue, tax payment wither direct or indirect is fated for citizens of any country right from inception.

How much do you understand about this prevailing tax system? A lot of lies and deceit has been cooked up to put fear in the minds of Nigerians on this singular issue.

Some are already misinformed, brainwashed to think the tax system would be brought into the system to winch hunt and collapse the economy.

I think this is one of the explanation that can be reckon with for better understanding.

I wish everyone good luck as we move towards another face of economy planning.

NEW TAX IN NIGERIA (STARTING JANUARY 2026)

Simple explanation for everybody no grammar

Let me break it down like small pikin.

WHAT IS TAX?
Tax simply means:Government saying If you make money, small small help us with some.

❌ It is NOT:
Government stealing your money
Government collecting your savings
Government entering your bank to carry money

IF YOU ARE JUST A NORMAL PERSON for example Salary earner, trader, student, hustler.

If you don’t make much money, government will not tax you.
If you earn ₦800,000 or less in one year, YOU PAY ZERO TAX.

Example:
If you sell pure water, pepper, clothes, or you’re a student you are safe.

THEY WILL TAX MY BANK ACCOUNT ❌❌❌

THIS IS A BIG LIE.

Government CANNOT:
Take money from your bank
Tax your savings
Tax money people send you

They only tax income (money you work for).

Bank account is not taxable. Income is.

WHY THEY ARE ASKING FOR TIN

TIN means Tax Identification Number.

TIN is Your name tag, not your ATM pin.

Banks will ask for it so government can:
Know who is earning money
Stop rich people from hiding

TIN does not allow them to take your money.

IF YOU HAVE A SMALL BUSINESS like Business name / shop / online sales

Government looks at profit, not your capital.
Example: You sell goods for ₦500,000
You spend ₦450,000 on goods, rent, fuel, transport.

Your profit is ₦50,000
That small money is what tax looks at

If profit is small: You pay little or nothing.

They don’t tax stress. They tax profit.

IF YOU ARE A BIG BUSINESS / BIG EARNER

Yes — you will pay more tax.
And that is fair.

Reason be that those who have more should help more.

IF YOU COLLECT SALARY (PAYE)

If your company already deducts tax:
✔ nothing new
✔ no extra tax
✔ no double payment

You are already doing the right thing.

ONLINE WORKERS & SIDE HUSTLES

If you make money:
•online
•from abroad
•side hustle

You should declare it.

But know this that small earners are protected. nobody taxes your bank balance

THE TRUTH is, this new tax is not about punishing poor people.
It is about making rich people pay their fair share.

FINAL SIMPLE MESSAGE.
JAN 2026 TAX IN NIGERIA NO PANIC

• Low income earners pay ZERO tax
• Government cannot touch your bank savings
• TIN is for identification, not money collection
• Small businesses are protected
• Only profit and income are taxed

Fear comes from lies. Knowledge brings peace.

Copied.

I believe every health habit we come across online are very important and necessary. But I also believe some of them are odd and may deprive people of living a good and decent life.

For instance, junk food are very prevalent in today's society, most health tips says we should stay entirely away from consuming it.

Yes, too much of everything is bad but shouldn't we consume them responsibly and accordingly?
Health › Which One Do You Do Comfortably? by meedoLock(op): 6:30pm On Dec 13, 2025
HABITS THAT PROTECT YOUR HEART

1. Reduce salt in your food: too much salt raises your blood pressure quietly.

2. Check your blood pressure regularly: early detection saves lives.

3. Walk at least 30 minutes a day: movement keeps your blood vessels flexible

4• Eat more fruits and vegetables: they help clean up excess cholesterol.

5. Drink enough water: dehydration thickens the blood and stresses the heart

Open comment for 10 more habits

6. Cut down on fried foods: they increase bad cholesterol

7. Manage stress intentionally: stress hormones make your BP spike

8. Sleep 7–8 hours daily: your heart rests and repairs at night

9. Avoid smoking and second-hand smoke: it stiffens and damages blood vessels

10. Limit alcohol: too much weakens the heart muscles

11. Maintain a healthy weight: reduces workload on the heart

12. Choose whole grains: they help lower cholesterol

13. Do regular medical checkups: BP, cholesterol, sugar and more

14. Take your medications consistently (if prescribed): skipping doses is dangerous

15. Stay hydrated and stay active: this is a simple but powerful combo

Which one do you do comfortably

nairalanda1:
LOL...what resources.

When you people were clapping for Obasanjo when he removed tolls on the road, not knowing you were kpaing the road system in this country by extension.?

South Africa has a good road system, and they have tolls. It's not like everyone is rich there, there are even broke ass white people there.
And you have said nothing but the truth, but if you remove corruption, mismanagement, embezzlement among the rest of what we are known for in public offices, we know we shouldn't be where we are.

Health › Re: Oral Habits That Need To Be Studied by meedoLock(op): 8:24pm On Dec 07, 2025
EFFECTS OF OPEN BITE
1. Poor biting efficiency : You can't bite foods like noodles, suya, spaghetti, apples, or meat properly.

2.Speech problems – especially lisping and unclear “s,” “t,” “d,” “z” sounds.

6. Facial changes showing long-face appearance, weak lip seal, and sometimes a narrow upper jaw.

4. Difficulty swallowing properly – leading to abnormal swallowing patterns.

5. Orthodontic challenge – open bites are harder to correct if the patient relapses back to the habit.

6.Tongue thrust aggravation – the tongue slips into the space, making the problem worse.

7. Mouth Breathing: They often breathe through their mouth, exposing the body to higher microbial load.

Stop that child today from sucking his/her fingers.

What is an OPEN BITE:
An open bite means that the upper and lower teeth do not touch themselves when the mouth is closed. It can be seen when the child has primary tooth, and if he/she does not stop before the first permanent teeth come out, It will be seen for life .

Sports › Re: Happy South Africans Mock Nigeria Over Failure To Qualify For WC by meedoLock(m): 3:05pm On Nov 17, 2025
DiamondsAreFore:
The controversial South African Sports Minister, Gayton Mackenzie who was a former gang member and organised criminal when he was a young man, has taken to his X account to mock Nigerians for failing to qualify for the WC and other South Africans have joined him.

The minister commented on last night's game:

They were busy digging a grave for @BafanaBafana instead of preparing adequately 🕺🏽🙏

Mr Mackenzie had earlier caused controversy when he said that he did not want Nigeria to qualify for next year's World Cup because of the role that Nigeria had played in the deduction of 3 points from South Africa in the group stages for fielding an ineligible player in their game against Lesotho in March this year.

https://x.com/GaytonMcK/status/1990289757243609471?t=j9m7S3K9YUqNKO8ZppBIJg&s=19[/quote]I see all these as an obsession. Is the minister sure their national team could navigate his way out of group stage when the event kick-off? Should Nigeria come for them when they are thrown out of the competition?

Africa should feel sober and reflective when it comes to world cup tournament. Imagine no African team has made his way into the final of any world cup ever played talkless of winning a thing, yet we are here celebrating disqualification into a world cup tournament.

Something serious must be going on in our polity and preparation every round of the competition.

Congrats to Congo though 👍

So, what is your take?
What is that privilege you believe others take for granted?
Having freedom is germain. Ex convict would tell you what it takes to be a free man after a period behind bar.

Good health should also be given a thought. It takes more than money for some people to inhale, eat, urinate and at times defecate on their own.

If all these could be put into effect, we would have have an unprecedented kind of steady growth we are suppose to be reckon with.

Restructuring would have been done in components and not necessarily in a whole.

This is the kind of conversation I love contributing to on this platform. The usual gbasgbos is extremely unnecessary. My believe is that know ones get to choose the tribe, gender or religion they are born into. With all these in mind, We will all leave happily and proud of our Nation.

LOL pray they don't experience the wrath of Ibadan boys. Which sabo? How many are they? 😂

I really pity the innocent Kano Pillars players and I pray it doesn't happen in Ibadan cos it won't be funny. When it comes to violence I fear Ibadan and Ife boys. But that won't happen IJN, cos violence is never the solution.

The sanctions are the perfect solution, in order to prevent retaliation.
You actually took those words from my mouth, I've been looking for a way to reply him.

How would someone who is privy make an assumption that the Hausa dominated part of sabo at Mokola will precede the Ibadan people at anywhere in Ibadan.
