Quakertellicus1: Well, I am not a zombie, or a wailer, but I can see the sense in government charging taxes on calls.
You see....today, oil prices are now $50 per barrel, and not too long ago they were $29 a barrel. In 2013....oil was $112 per barrel.
That means every barrel of oil we sell in Nigeria now....we are earning $62 less than we earned in 2013.
And oil sadly is our main source of revenue (and don't start singing agric. Agric is not the money spinner it once was. Neither is mining).
And if you recall.....we do not control the price of oil (Or for that matter cocoa,palmoil , groundnut or cotton. Or solid minerals).
When the source of your revenue goes down.....you have to look for other sources of revenue. it takes time to diversify.....ie YEARS. Meanwhile,we need the cash now to pay salaries,build things, keep subsidizing education and so on.
So taxes have to go up.....and new ones have to be found.
Or we take a loan from the IMF ......AND use the money to keep on pretending all is well.(We still have to take loans from the IMF).
And here is the cold reality. Oil is not going to rise again , and we cannot diversify into agric or mining because prices there are low too.(Most agric dependent African countries have their budgets written for them by international aid agenices You want that?)
Nigerians.....we are paying the price for years of relying on oil. And the only way out is more austerity measures....so that we can have the cash to fix the lights and transport...so that we can become industrial Not selling raw materials like this APC govt and their PDP predecessors and most of their Army precursors did.
So stop wailing, stop zombeisim. and face the fact. We are not a rich nation. This oil price fall has shown us the truth. And an oil price rise is not the answer to our problems.
Pay your taxes .THERE IS NO NATIONAL CAKE. What do you have to say to the government that has not done any visible project with taxes they have collected so far? Are you this hollow? Who doesnt know the crap you put up there? You are comfirmed and card carrying zombie  |
