. UNIPORT d' ALpha Marine of the SUPREME VIKINGS CONFRATANITY (SVC).

UNIPORT is quiet

superstar1:
How is payment of VAT or Payee or land use charges double taxation? They all served different purposes. Our VAT is one of the lowest in the world. Payee is being paid all over world.land use charge is being paid all over the world under different nomenclatures.

I will rather pay more tax, which will reduce my disposable income if i am assured of good roads, electricity, good hospitals, potable water, security and better education.

The cost of providing all that on my own out weighs the tax i should have paid in multiple folds.

Read my post again, I said MULTIPLE TAXES, VAT and co inclusive. And yes I know that they're being paid across the globe. But tell me, do countries tax their citizens for every bank transaction & now for both voice, SMS & bearer (data) services?

superstar1:
It is funny that we pay all the taxes outside the country and protest against them in our country.

Taxes make the citizens more interested in politics and governance. It makes them to hold their governments more accountable, because it is their sweat. People were less concerned in the past because the fund being looted was not from their pockets directly.

Taxation is the path to better governance. I strongly believe.

However, establishing this new set of taxes without the people seeing what you have done with newly introduced ones is insensitive and criminal.

Show us what you have done with Stamp Duty and we can trust you with more. FIRS and Presidency listen to the voice of the people.

And who told you we dont pay multiple taxes in this country, from VAT to PAYE, Land Use and so much more. For small to medium size businesses it is even way worse, yet they're expected to survive. With what? Keep in mind that personal earnings/wages are still stagnant or even slashed in some cases, yet you expect Nigerians to be comfortable with ADDITIONAL TAXES Thats sheer WICKEDNESS.

*facepalm*......I blame GEJ

AntiIPOB:
Must you talk?

Must you spew CRAP?

AntiIPOB:
Your opinion does not count here,ad no one owned you explanation,you can google if you care.

Sure it doesnt....cos you're all LYING! Not a single bullet has been bought, and there complints of delays in allowance payment, yet PMB has the audacity to lie to us. Nonesense..

...but hey, do feel free to soak up all the spewed crap.

PMB administration claims that both hard and softwares were purchased to implement the war against boko haram.......care to list the items purchased?

snailspeed:
Why are you APC zombies sooo dishonest? You all joined the #IStandWithBuhari hashtag, even here on NL

Now that it has fallen apart and Buhari has shamefully deserted it, you are all changing gear again! So much dishonesty and lies from you APC sycophants. Shame

Azzin!!

Did the presidency just ssid it hss recorded ",,successes" in ending the insurgency, revamping the economy (chisos !!) and ending official corruption (what of the budget padding or the billions of taxpayers funds airlifted to influence the Rivers state elections)?

APC, fear God oh.

Don4eva:
I agree you earn millions as salary and I earn house help allowance, that is why GEJ through YOUWIN empowerd me, now I have 3people in my payroll. Keep collecting your millions and don't criticise a programme you know nothing about. Meanwhile, shove your useless sponsorship up your ass.

Ouch!

To all APC + PMB supporters abeg make una dey lie small small na. It's the easter season o. Abeg.

Bobbysworld28:
Gej did not expose subsidy fraud. Sanusi did and was subsequently kicked out. It is u who has selective amnesia

CHOI!!! Blood of God!! Nna una can LIE!!

CORRECTION: Ngozi Okonjo Iweala (Coordinating Minister of the Economy) and Sanusi Lamido Sanusi (CBN) made the case for the subsidy removal ON BEHALF of the FG. It was the FG that gave the deadline to end the fuel subsidy on December, 2011, AND THEY DID!! That led to a hike in prices especially transportation the following January (I should know, I had to pay N14,000+ instead of the usual N7000 for my trip back to Taraba while I left my newly wedded wife back home). But was people like you, the APC (then AC and CPC), and the #OccupyNaija movement that took to the streets CONDEMNING GEJ's move cos ya'll were too damn weak to stand the sacrifice required.


Oh btw, Sanusi was sacked cos of the "missing" N20 billion naira from NNPC allegation, an allegation proven wrong by the PWC independent audit.

Seriously though, how did you miss ALL THESE? You see why people fail WAEC and JAMB? Or is it selective amnesia on your part (its quite rampant among you PMB supporters)?

Deen77:
You are wrong, Jonathan only around 1,500mw, OBJ increase to around 3,500mw

Yeah GEJ only contributed 1500MW, but OBJ "increased" it to 3500MW.......same OBJ that couldnt even fix the remaining 4 out of 6 turbines at the massive Egbin Thermal Power plant.......yeah go on, keep lying to yourself.

Dimienedonkz:
Oh My God!!!
this man is a disgrace to what should be termed as "president". Rivers deadlier than; Borno, Yobe, Adamawa and Benue? smh

He is right. Deadly to the APC riggers.

DelGardo:
I will sha humour you with a response. Jesus is my Lord and saviour. I am impressed with Buhari, in fact I am happy with his performance and I can list a couple for you.

-Boko Haram is decimated in less than one year, army re-equipped and motivated. Something Jona could not do in six years after spending over $5billion

-local manufacturers and farmers are having the best of times

-power supply peaked under him, even though it crashed suddenly (and we know why)

-subsidy is cancelled and cabal broken

-corruption reduced at the federal level. Recovery of stolen commonwealth.

-new factories are opening up and investors are showing interest

-over N2.8trillion saved via TSA. Billions saved from discovered ghost workers

-states bailed out

-federal govt is liquid and has not borrowed to meet overheads (Jona was looking to borrow a year ago just to pay salaries)

-clean up of Niger Delta commissioned

-N500b earmarked in the budget for the most vulnerable citizens

-a wife that does not infest our national life with crude reasoning and undignified actions

-all achieved without the full budget




What is this rambling? We are not talking about a few mistakes

-Buni-Yadi boys murdered in there sleep, Chibok girls, who he ignored for weeks, denied for weeks and loafed around for the rest of his regime? Mistake?

-billions spent to pray for Boko Haram to fall down and die, mistake?

-unseviceable weapons bought at multiple times the price of new ones that turned out to be instruments of death, was that also a mistake?

-Multibillion Naira contracts to sworn militants to protect strategic national assets was no mistake

-dollar cash withdrawals from the CBN to prosecute elections, a mistake?

Distributing gold plated iphones bought with our money and crested with our coat of arms during his 'daughter's' wedding was an in-your-face insult to me

-wife serving as a permanent secretary from nowhere was an obnoxious behaviour which he condoned. Wife building estates, hotels and acquiring choice property was a sign of mental poverty which cannot be excused.

-billions wasted on oil subsidy, and refineries crippled? Oil deals that made no sense? Billions of dollars stolen? Mistake?

-Met power at about 5kMW, spent billions, sold national assets to some people, gave them unbelievable incentives, dashed them money and left with power generation still less that 5kMW. Was that a mistake?

-Enugu-Onitsha, Enugu-PH, Aba-Ikot Ekpene (abandoned), Ikot Ekpene - Umuahia and hundreds of roads in serious state of disrepair untouched for 6 years, mistake? Remember MC Loph? He died because of a very bad road. And thousands of others.

DONT GET ME STARTED.

5) Corruption reduced at the Federal level.....yet they could pad the budget. Youre aware that PMBs gym alone is gulping over One billion naira, right?

6) What clean up of the Niger Delta? PMB did say he was going to do that.......that was 8 months ago. Till, NOTHING/NADA/ZILCH has been done.

7)Oh one more thing on the power issue...GEJ NEVER EVER met power at 5000MW. Power prior to his administration NEVER EVER exceeded the 1500MW mark. But like I said, GEJ broke that jinx by increasing generated power to almost 5000MW and increased installed capacity.

Since when did the oil subsidy end? And which cabal broken? Same cabal that played their hand about a month or so ago causing one of the WORST fuel scarcity in our history? Hell, fuel marketers I know tried pumping out their dead stock of PMS just to survive.

9) Roads in state of disrepair....tell that to roads like the Ikot-Abasi-Ogoni road, Jalingo-Numan-Yola road, Jalingo-Wukari-Zaki Biam-Gboko road, Enugu-Abakili-Ogoja road, Otukpo. Thanks to GEJ, my last trip from Taraba to Akwa Ibom was slashed from 14 solid hours to SIX (6) HOURS. Btw, didnt super minister Fashola admit that GEJ refurbished FAR MORE ROADS than any other administration?

DONT GET ME STARTED.

Please do tell:

1) which equipment or weapon system did the PMB administration buy for the military in the war against terror? Cos EVERY new system in use (weapons, tactical training, equipment) was purchased by the GEJ administration.

2) How many power stations have PMB built or at least commissioned? Cos last I checked GEJ built and commissioned far more stations than his predecessors combined, along with upgrading and expanding our transmission grid, plus building far more distribution substations across the country and the massive distribution of transformers under Prof Nebo's watch. Did I mention the unbundling of NEPA thus eliminating govt inefficiency and including private sector participation, plus the outsourcing of TCN mgt? Oh btw, GEJ is responsible for breaking the long jinx, increasing generated power from a paltry 1000 plus MW to almost 5000MW. The success has nothing to do with the PMB administration or his body language.

3)Manufacturers having the best time? Yet they're closing up shop and moving to Ghana. Please do tell what this administration has done to cushion the current economic hardships for local SMEs? Any loans, or tax breaks, or at least reducing port tariffs for imported goods needed for manufacturing?.........yeah, I dont think so.
Oh yeah, about agriculture, it was the GEJ administration that was responsible for our improved food security, thanks to the massive produce output till date, elimination of the fertilizer cartel, the e-wallet scheme. The PMB administration is yet to replicate such successes.

4) And the oil subsidy. Last I checked it was GEJ that exposed the fraud there and pushed to end it. Now guess who kicked against it? Thats right, folks like you, the then opposition, and the #OccupyNaija movement (but im sure youve forgotten no thanks to selective amnesia). At least it was still partially withdrawn with proceeds used to fund SURE-P projects from infrastructure to healthcare. But do tell, what has pMB done to eliminate the subsidy, which btw has ballooned under his watch? Here's one funny observations though, under the GEJ administration with high oil prices, there was a MASSIVE fuel glut in the system with fuel everywhere. But under PMB with extremely low oil prices, its fuel scarcity galore.

CLUELESS. INCOMPETENCY. HELPLESS. All wrapped in one Daura bag.


WORST. PRESIDENT. EVER

Henry240:
Isn't up-armouring for this sort of vehicle, a Police LAV, excessive?

Unnecessary? Bros Henry, I wish the police had a couple of these armoured vehicles, along with the good ole Saxon and Streit MK2 APCs, for patrols within Borno, Yobe, and Adamawa when the insurgency raged, and during the Abakiliki communal crisis.

IzonOwei:
nigeria is being run on the same template of failure and still expecting different results..what stops each zone in the nation from autonomously generating power form its energy sources present in the zones


what is stopping us from adopting true federalism and regionalism so that we can grow....

In 2013/2014 the Presidency via NERC authorized states with IPPs to generate and distribute LOCALLY. That in a way decentralized the main transmission grid.

GEJ met a power sector generating power at a paltry 1200+MW. He came up with a solid plan, brought in the best brains, implemented same plan and reformed the sector entirely (new power stations brought online, repair of existing stations, upgrade and expansion of transmission grid, outsourcing of TCN, partial decentralization of grid, privatization of PHCN/NEPA, new distribution stations across the country, massive distribution of step down transformers, etc). Thanks to him, generated power rose to 5,000MW.

PMB comes in and tries to claim GEJ's feat, zombies and w@anking m@stubators basing the useless claim on his "body odour". Generated power has now dropped to about 2,000MW....guess Bubu needs a deodorant.

sweetgala:
Deziani or did you mean to say Kema Chikwe, there is not glorying OBJ here the subject of discussion is the failure or GEJ and his boss Yar'adua

He meant Deziani. I remember same report. New minister of works Dezieni crying about state of same road.

Sunofgod:
You no dey serious......going to the uk to be second class citizen?

You did read the part that said he's heading back to the UK for his STUDIES, right? Is it a crime for a Chief/King to expand his knowledge base in one of the world's BEST educational system? Or is your case, and that of the person that "liked" your comment, that of BAD BELLE?

ihatesycophant:
Your eyes will clear when bubbles begin to burst. Do you think all army suuport the fight against Boko Haram but today they're winning the war? Please this noise is too much, mobilise them to come, I pray you should be alive to tell the story. Buhari is not OBJ and Yar'adua. They even tried but OBJ dealt with them and even clean up a whole village Odi because of that. Please I am in haste to hear their ready to fight FG, the story of Odi will be a child's play young boy, I know you're tired of seeing your militants.

This is not about "bubbles" but past experience. Odi happened, Gbaramatu happened. But how did it all end? I suggest you ask members attached with Ops Pulo Shield at the time or officers and soldiers from the Amphibious battalion in Warri or 2nd Brigade Port Harcourt about their experiences. One insurgency is more than enough, Buhari will be stupid to open a 2nd front.

ihatesycophant:
Buhari will not treat any cahrlatan with kid's glove. He'll roast them and at the end they'll be the one at the receiving end. No one tell a child not to become leprous, when he becomes, he''ll be the one to face it. Please mobilise them to fight the gov't. and let see who will feel the heat.

We heard same from Obasanjo who was more of a hardliner and even went as far as leveling Odi. Now tell me, how did OBJ fair during the ND Insurgency? Do note that these militants are like those bow & arrow weilding Maitasine that had to contend with. He cant afford a second insurgency front.

tayebest:
Take note of what exactly?? Nigeria will take no mercy. They will treat them like terrorist!

Tell me, how did the last ND insurgency go for the govt?

searchiing4love:
EVEN THO I DON'T SUPPORT THE SENSELESS KILLINGS OF INNOCENT PEOPLE, THE PEOPLE OF THE SS/SE NEEDS TO UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS A DIFFERENT REGIME FROM GEJ'S WEAK ONE. BUHARI AND BURATAI ARE MILITARY BLOODS AND WON'T BE INTIMIDATED BY CHEAP BLACKMAILS. NO MILITANT OR IPOD GROUPS WILL BE TOLERATED TO DISTRACT THE GOVERMENT. IF THE ARMY CAN WIPE OUT A SHIITE MUSLIM COMMUNITY IN THE NORTH, WHO ARE THE MISCREANTS FROM THE SOUTH TO DARE BUHARI? I HOPE THOSE SUPPORTING TOMPOLO IN GBARAMATU KINGDOM CAN SEE A SAMPLE OF WHAT AWAITS THEM

Sure.....i guess lessons were never learnt from the last ND Insurgency. Quick one though: Obasanjo is equally military blood and a hardliner compared to Buhari or Buratai. Tell me, how did the ND Insurgency work out under his watch? You do know that it took the intervention of two "bloody civilians" (Yaradua and GEJ) to end the insurgency, right?

Damn!! Did the military use artillery and mortar on the area ? thats a whole lot of damage.

sukkot:
GEJ needs to be stripped nekkid and flogged in otuoke village square with horsewhip. 99 strokes of cane

Go and flog him na. Or are your legs and hands broken?

johnmartus:
not far from truth. all the roads we are witness today was constructed by military government

you really believe what you just typed? i guess it was a ghost that built the Ikot Abasi-Ogoni road, or even the Enugu -Abakiliki road, plus the Enugu-Abakilki-Ogoja road. Hey, maybe same ghost fixed the Jalingo-Numan-Yola road, plus the Jalingo-Wukari-Zaki Biam-Gboko road.

Ive always been a fan of the Glo data service. However that changed during the last quarter of last year (2015) as the quality of their service toook a turn for the worst down here in Akwa Ibom. I had to switch to Airtel.

OBAGADAFFI:
He didn't sign any agreement to vote PDP or GEJ, and he is not the only SSner to vote out PDP and GEJ.

So how did he b betrayed his people

By siding with the northerners against his own brother. No matter how Amaechi's viewed up north, he's seen as a Judas amongst his own people.
