No one insults God's own country and people (NIGERIA) and get away with it.

You called a Nation of over 180 million innocent people "Fantastically Corrupt" now Karma has caught up with you.

Buhari, you agreed that Nigeria is "Fantastically Corrupt", you will follow Comeron soon.

The woman no get respect at all. I wonder if it was because she is a president wife.
In igboland, it is not right to be the first to offer ur hand to an elder for a handshake. The offence is worse if u are a woman or if the elder is a titled person

Mr Tax Accountant, what Tax did Buhari's wife pay before she donated 300 million naira? Abi Na Linda you want take practise your IT?
aisha buhari is not in the class of Linda ikeji. There is no basis for comparison. The same laws cannot apply to both of them in our jungle called naija. The buharis are an elite family. They are close to untouchable (although this is very sad).
Linda ikeji on the other hand is an upjumped nobody that feels she will become relevant by bragging About her wealth on social media. She was desperate to become a force to be reckoned with. She was stu.pid, proud, insultive and very vain.
She is gonna pay the price fully

Let's check the authenticity of this so called fine. Linda is not a Legal entity and am sure she did not purchase the house from a Legal entity and so has no business with FIRS but with LIRS
This has also occured to me. There can, However, be exceptions to the rule. Else it might be a typo

how does a blogger pay a tax, what kind of contribution does the govt. Gave to blogging, if not lack of electricity and exobitant data rates, nonsense
are u a lawyer or a tax expert? I doubt it.
well, let me help u out. The PITA 2011 (personal incomes tax act 2011) Defines taxable income as any income earned in, Derived from, received in or brought into Nigeria. (except it could be proved that such income has been taxed in another country, in which case, double taxation principles will be exercised).
so help me answer, is blogging income excluded from this list?

I am Igbo but She should go and pay.

The roads she drive on everyday cost money to build.
If she has as much as she brag everyday, FIRS should increase the tax. 75m is too small.

Self made noise from her everyday.
Even prostitutes work for their money. Nobody sleeps everyday and expects money.

Google owns the blogger platform she uses.
I am sure she can't code a thing with notepad.
You have the right to see this as hating, but I don't care.
....
Federal government can come for 75m any time I bought a house Worth 500m.


You don't buy such house without paying to the government who manages the area. Where does she think the money to build all those bridges on Lagos Island comes from?

We are discussing this rubbish because of our backwardness.
In United States or Europe or even Asia, she must have to pay the tax at the same time she paid for the house. If government found out themselves, the tax would be massively increased or she goes to jail.
I am igbo too. and I fully agree with u.
In a sane society, everybody realises that it is his/her obligation to pay tax. In my educated opinion as an accountant and a tax practitioner, she should be paying way above N75m. I cant readily tell the basis by which they arrived at 75m.
Pls dont mind other Igbos that only see everything as a battle against igbos.

In as much as I don't really like her ( as of recent ) cos of her feminist stuff , I don't think this news is and will ever be true .
The Op sounds like s/he's happy about it .
She's a very successful woman , and one thing that is certain is that she would have people who wouldn't like to see her smile around her .
So Op , stop hating and find something better to do with your time ...
I've spoken .
let us leave all this sentiments and solidarity statements and address the key issue here:
Is she guilty? (I think so).
Did she evade tax? (it is in every Nigerian's blood to try to evade tax)
Is tax evasion wrong? (hell yes!!!)
Could she have avoided this mess?(yes, if only she had been less pompous and have flouted her "wealth" less blatantly in the face of Nigerians)
Is she gonna pay for it? (most definitely. even if she does not pay in full, she will still lose nothing less than N20m in bribes)

[color=#000033]Logical guy with logical brain who knows it's quite difficult to ignore the money and won't like her to later embarrass his ego, will make a drama of it. Because they know she would later rant about the money she gave him. (Tag him broke and hungry guy).

He would act like he don't care about the money, take a video or picture as if he's burning the money, but it is only the card he burnt. Then tell her to go to hell that you don't need the fúcking money.

Send it to her through WhatsApp or any other messaging apps. She will respect you forever without knowing you kept the cash.[/color]

My problem with Nigerians is that we make unworthy people popular.

This guy had a GPA not a CGPA of 4.0, which implies that it is only for one semester.

A GPA of 4.0 not 4.00, will imply that he offered very few courses, may be 3 or 4 in that semester, or may be he only offered his Final Year Project in the semester. grin

NB: I am not jealous in anyway of his progress, I graduated with a first class in engineering at 21 in a reputable federal university.

Just the first set of people to come to Westeros, First Men> Andals> Rhoynar. I wouldn't say extinct, but as their blood still flows in the present era. Some houses are purely First Men, and some purely Andal, no house is purely Rhoynar.
I agree. it appears most of the north are firstmen and andals. Remember the dothraki always called Jorah mormont "Jorah the andal"

Make up, maybe. Made up ? Na. Martell, Tyrell, Tully, Greyjoy, were unjumped. Heck even the Targaryens and Baratheons. Only Stark, Lannister and Arryn forged their own Kingdoms, the North, the Westerlands, and the Vale respectively.
What I can't say is who are the Rhoynar, the Andals and the Firstmen. Abi are they all extinct?

There are 9 Free Cities on Essos, and only Braavos is among the ones you mentioned. The Summer Isles aren't even on Essos. Yunkai, Astapor, Meereen make up Slaver's Bay off the Coast to the South of Essos. Qarth is to the far East, not a Slaver City nor a Free City. Daenerys is only in control of Meereen and the Dothraki you mentioned, those don't make up a quarter of Essos. Valyria is a Free Hold (not a City), which founded some of the Free Cities.
Dragonstone and the region surrounding it aren't a Kingdom but a Region, Lannisport is a City not a Kingdom, Winterfell is a Castle not a Region or Kingdom,The Iron Islands are a Region not a Kingdom, Highgarden is a Castle not a Region or Kingdom. Seven Kingdoms, Nine Regions.
see history.

I may concede to some of ur points on the free cities issue (not the word "may"wink because am still trying to understand the geography of the story.
But when u talk of westeros, I am 100% sure that I gave u the seven great houses that made up the seven kingdoms.

Trust me!

Her hostile takeover of dothraki horde was just baffling. Are we to believe that an entire society would just up sticks and follow her, simply because she roasted their leaders?

Are there really no ambitious dothraki left to try and exploit the power vacuum?

Are there no loyal dothraki left to try and and avenge the death of their leaders, brothers and fathers?

Plus what is she even offering the dothraki sef?
This is a society of nomadix killers, with no established cities, no agriculture, and virtually no economy.

Judging from the conversation with Yara, I'm guessing that raping slaving and pillaging are no longer viable options for the dothraki- so how does Danaerys sustain this vast number of people whose entire lifestyle is centred around those very 'principles'?

Fvck Danaerys mehn...and Fvck that Taylor Swift squad down in Dorne
the dothraki follow strength only.
They don't Give a damn w/o the khal is as far as he is strong.

She's now possibly the most powerful person in Westeros
.
At the bolded, na wa for u oooo
How can u be talking of westeros made up of just d seven kingdoms fa?
The cities across the narrow sea are not part of westeros. They are the free cities. (Bravos, yunkai, meereen, astapor, the summer isles, quarth, the ruins of valleria, and some other cities which I have forgotten dia names) and Daenerys controls all of them include the savage dothraki.
Daenerys stormborn is the most powerful woman in that universe.

By the way, just for show offs, look at the kingdoms (or great houses) that made up westeros:
Dragonstone (the taegarynes), lannisport (the lannisters), winterfell (the starks), the iron islands (the greyjoys), the vale (the Arryns), Dorne (the martells), highgarden (the Tyrells)

Y'all hating on Sansa, please chill...

Truth be told, there was nothing Jon or Sansa could have done to save Rickon and she did well to not mention the Knights of the Vale. Truth is Jon should have been a little patient.

My best moments where the first 10 minutes of the episode. Danerys and her dragons? Squad goals!!! Dracarys cool

Then Greyworm 2 for 1 move grin grin grin

Lady Mormont's stare kiss kiss kiss

Great episode... Deserves the 10/10 it got on IMDB

Na you wan kill the dragons abi?
Which men? Even if there are any, they are long dead and buried. Why didn't they kill Aegon's dragons when he first attacked.
3 dragons, the full dothraki herd, the second sons, and the unsullied. Tell me who could stop that force. From every corner you are attacked and you still want to kill dragons? Every kingdom she attacks will quickly bend the knee when they see the dragons, just like Brandon did. There is presently nobody that can stop Dany.

P.S the dragons have still not attained full maturity
the Mother of dragons is now UNBEATABLE. Anybody disputing this fact is better off watching Tom and jerry. She has:-

- the finest soldiers ever made (The unsullied)

- the men loyal to her and ready to do the dirty job (The second sons)

- A very cunning political Strategist (Tyrion Lannister and The eunuch varys)

The vast numbers of swift and agile horsemen (the ENTIRE dothraki horde) Remember that Khal Drogo alone has 100,000 men in his khalasar. and all dothraki are on horse back.

- a vast Navy (The iron fleet of yara and Theon greyjoy and the seized ships from the defeated masters of astapor and Yunkai)

It will require the whitewalkers, the Red God, The Seven and all other supernatural forces working together to bring down such a sheer military might

Oh...........and I forgot to add

3 powerful dragons!!

U were wrong. Sansa was only being realistic. She learnt her lessons tha hard way. She knew Ramsay and knew Rickon was done for no matter what.
She tried to get Jon to agree to wait for more men and not to let emotions rule in for Ramsay's benefit. That was wise of her.

All of you lot saying Ramsay is a tactical genius got it all wrong. Ramsay is a sadistic creature. How the hell can you sacrifice your own men. Ramsay basically killed of his whole army, that's just sadistic and not tactical genius, a real tactician would never have left winterfell. His dad told him as much. When he asked him do you feel like a victor after mowing down tired and outnumbered cold barratheon army. The lords of the north umber and karstack are just plain stupid for following ramsay.
u are right. I watched in shock as Ramsay kept back the Bolton with their flayed man banners and asked them to shoot arrows continually at the karstarks and umbers together with Jon snows army which he sent them to attack.
That was very callous of him. He practically destroyed his army.

I know her storyline is 80% boring and 20% awesome, but the 20% is SO awesome that it's worth it!

just her title dey trip me die.
Whenever she says those magic words "dhacrahys" my hairs stand on end.

DedeNkem:
Using Boko Haram to seek asylum is a big mistake because BH problem affects only a small part of Nigeria. And the West knows this.

I guess they refused him because they thought he could have easly fled to other safer areas in Nigeria and still be safe.

During the time he moved to Europe, Nigeria had already setup refugee camps, so they'll surely take this into account.

Even at that, they would have considered him because of his wounds if his story had no discrepancy. Western governments hate being lied to, especially, when you're seeking asylum from them! If you must lie to them, make sure you can defend it at all levels. They ask tricky questions.

If the guy was smart enough, he could have married a local in Sweden or Iceland! Marraige gives automatic legal residence in any Western country!

I wish him good luck.

I have never been so happy to see Littlefinger. Had the Knights of Vale not come through, Jon and his men were goners. There is no Ifs, Ands or Buts about it. Now, Littlefinger saving the day will come with a price. He keeps playing Captain Save-A-Stark. Remember that anytime one villain dies, another rises. Littlefinger is next.

I suppose it's been asked before, but.... Where in seven hells was Ghost?!?!

Best. Divorce. Ever.

I refuse to let anyone try and tell me that Game Of Thrones z 6 episode 9 wasn't the best TV episode of all time.

My problem now is little finger. He has no free gift. All his gestures have a selfish motive. I wonder what he will do next.
