Nigeria's U.S. crude export rises by 16 percent
By Laolu Akande and Yakubu Lawal

In a development that seems to lend credence to analysts' view that the United States (U.S.) might be looking beyond the strife-torn Middle-East for its energy needs, the U.S. crude oil import from African sources is on the upswing with Nigeria recording a 16.2 percent rise in its crude export to the U.S. last year.

In fact, according to a new report by the International Trade Administration of the U.S. Department of Commerce, other African oil producers even did better than Nigeria in exporting crude to the U.S.

The report came ahead of the eighth yearly U.S.-sub-Saharan Africa Trade and Economic Co-operation Forum scheduled to hold in Nairobi, Kenya, from August 4 - 6, 2009.

Meanwhile, stakeholders in the Nigerian oil and gas industry were yesterday assured that their concerns as raised in the proposed Petroleum Industry Bill (PIB) currently before the National Assembly would be addressed by the lawmakers, especially for the growth of indigenous companies in the sector.

What is PIT?
PIT is Personal Income Tax. It is a tax that is imposed on individuals who are either in employment or are running their own small businesses under a business name or partnership.

Though collection of PIT is a federal responsibility this tax is generally collected by state governments from those that are resident in their various states, regardless of whether they are federal, state, local government, or private sector workers.


The Federal Inland Revenue Service, however, also collects this tax but only from residents of the Federal Capital Territory as well as what may be described as highly mobile federal workers – staff of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and other Nigerians and foreigners outside the country but earning income in Nigeria (non-residents), expatriate workers resident in Nigeria, Police Officers, and Military Officers. Civilians working in Police and Military formations, however, pay to their respective States of residence.
