This tax bill is really bad for the North. Even the South East and South South will also suffer from it. Only the South West will benefit.

Liar!

False propaganda to sway southeast and South South against the government.

Go and preach this to your people in the North.

This is sheer hypocrisy!

South and Middle belt States have been under Shari'a imposed laws for a long time. And this has stigmated the growth of Nigeria's development.

A template where shari'a states enjoys tax monies accruing from alcoholic drinks but object to sale of same alcoholic drinks in their states/domains is pure injustice and hypocrisy. You don't enjoy what you forbid.

This is what one of the reforms the tax bill appears to address.

Therefore,all lovers freedom and justice should support the Bill.

My stand should not be misconstrued. I am not APC nor Tinubu supporter, but supporting what remains a progressive policy that will address injustices mitigating the growth and development of Nigerian nation.

This bill should be supported by all Men of goodwill.

The Arewa Youth Assembly should pipe down and support the Bill.

We expect further bills on quota system of admissions into unity schools and jobs recruitment into public service.

Salewa97:
The Borno State Governor, Babagana Zulum, has clarified his position on the controversial tax reform bills, saying he was not an enemy of President Bola Tinubu’s administration.

Zulum, however, insisted that if the four tax bills currently undergoing review before the Green Chamber are passed into law, only one of the 36 states – Lagos – will be the major beneficiary.

The governor made the clarification when he was featured as a guest on Sunday’s edition of Channels Television’s Politics Today.

He said, “I am a strong member of the APC. If you are to count two governors who have been in support of Tinubu from 2019 to 2023, you can mention Prof Zulum. I was the first governor to come out publicly to say that power must go to the South.

“Unfortunately, the President was told by many that the North is against him. About 60.2 per cent of his votes came from the North. There are a lot of misconceptions about this tax issue. During the NEC, we advised the Federal Government to pause for a moment to have a deeper consultation with stakeholders. That was our own statement.

“But later on, people have turned it upside down. I want you to believe that our consultation is central to democracy, and in a democratic setting, we are begging for the right to be consulted. This is only what has happened.”

In the past few weeks, the controversial bills have pitched the 36 state governors against the Federal Government, with the former calling for the withdrawal of the bills to create room for more consultation.

But Zulum had called on his colleagues and Northern stakeholders to reject the bills, insisting that the bills would damage the region’s economy if implemented.

Similarly, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has called for transparency and fairness in the ongoing review of

They should be ignored!

Tax reforms Bills is the cheering formula we have been expecting.

The North thinks they could be winning all the Time. A typical example of the Bill is the Vat on alcoholic beverages where shari'a states benefits from it but destroys alcoholic drinks in their domain.

helinues:
Zulum don dey misyarn lately. A professor for that matter

Southerners have been heavily taxed for decades while the northerners have been evading it. This time around, no going back. The tax reform bill will be passed.

Infact, there are more reforms coming like quota system. North should be ready for what's about to come

Yes. You are right. Oil dey your head.

Exceed15:
Someone might be behind this inferno.

Yes! Your people and fifth columnists are behind this.

SaLongs1:
I have always preferred to stand and explain myself out of difficult situations rather than run and still be apprehended.

It was odd hour and never knew they were policemen.

But then,is it right to treat them that way?

2cribz:
If u had stopped.highest 3k popo go collect. No be Sars na

stop at that hour? How about if they were kidnappers?

It was an odd hour and risky to stop for searches. The deceased did the right thing.

You have complex phobia as a result of being confined to Lagos Ibadan axis only.

Village man 😆

timilehin007:

Don't worry. Your prayers will soon manifest 🙏

Salute to Nigerian military. They showed gallantry in all the sports. Amassing 90 Gold medals is no mean feat.

With right leadership, Nigeria could compete with best in the world. And this Games has explicitly said it. I am sure with improved facilities and support, they could beat US and Chinese Army.

Kudos to Nigerian Team 🙏💕

SonofLagos:

There will never be another civil war in Nigeria. The war mongers have been reduced to noise makers only. 🤗

Keep Shut!

Signs of civil war is on the air. And it could implode any moment.

Just pray for good governance.

timilehin007:
I sincerely agree with you, it's politically motivated.. it's a deliberate target to the industrious Igbos albeit, I can't prove it as I have no evidence
if I were you, I'd go to the nearest police station to lodge a complaint, seemingly, you have evidence or better still, start a movement for mass exodus of your Igbos brothers back to the East, since the South West doesn't appreciate your efforts in contributing to the states economy... motivate your brethren/kins men to all return ro East and together develop your region

Don't worry. It's a gradual process. Very soon,most of the thriving business enterprises will relocate back to South East.

Where is Warri today? Same mindset like indigenes here. Today, Warri is a ghost town


Lagos is not far going same trajectory like Warri.

Very soon!

SonofLagos:
cry cry baby😆😆😆why not relocate back to your shithole region if you think Yorubas are burning your properties? Abi na until them burn you yourself😆😆😆

Always crying and wailing victimisation and on the other hand you claim to own Lagos😆😆😆shameless pigs, you don’t even value your cursed land but covet other peoples land😆😆😆

If Yorubas were hostile and destructive like you cursed migrants will you find Lagos investment friendly? Pls stop crying like a b!tch and go back home and fix your shithole maybe people can also find you’re potopoto region worth investing 😆😆😆

Are you original Lagos protegy to claim ownership of the city?

You came to appropriate the political heritage of Lagos in the name of Oduduwa. So, you can't be taken seriously.

What's your contribution to Lagos development vis-a-vis investments wise,if not Agbero and other odd jobs?,

No wonder, you always go Gaga anything Igbo.

Continue burning the market and wares. One day, you will meet your Waterloo!😭

Adjectvibe:

Your phone number not going. Tried severally no way.

santaclaws:
Since you are so sure it's an inside work and you have all the information, kindly go to the nearest police station to give your statement...

If you cannot do the above, face your akpu and ogbono and mechie onu!

Which police. The Police in the pockets of Tinubu?

Hotfreezer:
You are from the East. Any Yoruba you see there, send him or her back.
They are the ones to take your place when we kick you economic parasites out.

Comments from village person who never crossed beyond Lagos -Ibadan axis.

So local that they always localize their comments.

Travel to expose your outlook and understanding of others. Not assumptions and ethnic bigotry only.

santaclaws:
But if na for Anambra, you no go blame government. Some of you people just lack the brain to live in a modern society. Ok LASG is the culprit, go back to your region, una go begin cry say na tribalism!

Most of the buildings used by Igbos to sell spare parts in Idumota are OWNED BY YORUBAS AND RENTED BY IGBOS! SO WHAT'S THE POINT HERE‽ 🧐
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Most Lagos markets are prone to fire hazards. Most of the shops in Alaba for instance (St Peter, shops beside GTBank) are too tightly packed, open wires everywhere but if something happens tomorrow, it's Sanwo Olu's fault... Irresponsible folks!

What argument are you putting up?
You think we're daft,abi?

This 🔥 fire has inside collaboration. It's sponsored.

It's sad people's properties are trivialized at altar of political expediency.😭

It's not the first time or second time this is happening. Arson and 🔥 fire incidents creeped to crescendo when Tinubu was defeated in the epic 2023 presidential elections. The new political configuration didn't go down with APC and Lagos state government.

Since then it has been mayhem and destruction of Igbo markets and wares. An apparent move to silence Igbo dominance in the commerce of Lagos state.

Peterobiisathie:
stick to DSS and Fulani

we know. Simon Ekpa, DSS in cahoots with Fulanis are the ones reining havoc in southeast. Hope Uzodinma has a ✋ hand in the mayhem too with his UGM.

You don't deserve pity.

How much did you spend on your parents and siblings to spend so much on girlfriend.

Deal with it. You are an embarrassment to your family because what you spend on her,mere girlfriend,is mind boggling.

You don't deserve my sympathy!😢

Peterobiisathie:
the chief ipob terrorist Gidgiddy will never believe what you just posted

He must believe because you don't kill same people you are fighting for or to protect.

What's the essence of destroying the livelihood of people you vow to protect?

Admittedly, the Nigerian establishment has been unfair to southeast region. But killing and destroying their means of livelihood can't be an answer to it. A systematic approach, with ideological persuasion to Court international community is the key.

Not mayhem and bloodshed. Except,he is using struggle as a franchise to enrich himself.

Obi is a glorified baggage handler.

Many of you don't read well.

It's 2Baba who carried Peter Obi's bag out of respect. But later, Obi carried the bag back from him. You could see the bags look alike.

So, where did op get his story that Peter Obi carried 2Babas bag?

Bobloco:
We have seen how those who, by your estimation, are fit to be the president of Nigeria have run the country's economy aground in just a couple of months, inflicting great famine, hunger, and starvation on the nation

Don't mind them jaare.

Bunch of pretenders!

Softmirror:
I know 2face very well, him go just dey laugh for him mind. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

See dis busybody mumu man sef. 🤗

I hope Peter Obi is warming up for Ramadan make he go dey join for breaking of fast.

😂😂😂😂😂

You know 2 face for where?

Lies go Kee you dia!

You wan shine,abi?

Lie,lie!!🤥

Kdon2:
Pure hypocrisy. We now know obi better with his manipulative tendencies only that ir won't ever work again. Ibos battle d the wrong fie this time and their doom is here to their face.

There is nothing like hypocrisy.

He is humane and passionate. Humble par excellence.Unlike your Drug czar, mandate Thief and certificate forger who lacks empathy and humility in him.

Enjoy the regime of your mandate Thief gallivanting all over the globe 🤥

Thundafireseun:
This man is not fit to be the president of Nigeria….

Very soon he will carry Ola of Lagos bag or that small boy Peller’s bag …

Abeggi,go sit down!

He is displaying humility. Unlike your Drug czar and certificate forger who who wants to be worshiped at all times.

Obi remains an enigma. Shining example to All!

Peterobiisathie:
Gidgiddy
This one has taken Simon Ekpa to the floor

You can say it again. Simon Ekpa is a criminal, proxying for Nigerian establishment to destabilize southeast region.

He Is wicked and should be stoned to death for causing mayhem and destabilizing the economy of southeast.

So sad 😢

Simon Njoku Ekpa and his cohorts are criminals. They don't represent IPOB or Ndigbo.

He should rot in prisons.

Teenaira:
I believe Tinubu is just trying to help them not to be taking HARAM. Can we get this bill passed like 5 years ago please.

Ok

I'm not a fan of Tinubu but I support the Tax reforms he Is introducing.

We are gradually approaching True fiscal federalism we are clamouring for. A lot of imbalances in the polity.

Shari'a states can't be enjoying money accruing from taxes derived from alcoholic beverages and same time forbiding the sales in their domain/states. They destroy alcohol drinks in their states and hypocritically enjoying taxes accruing from it via vat.

If they don't want alcoholic sales in their domain, it's fair they don't partake in the vat taxes on it. And this type of imbalances is breeding cough, resentment and separatist agitations in the country. The injustices is unacceptable.

Tinubu should ensure the Bill is passed and made it into law.

Nigerian problems are partly caused by shari'a drunk states whose understanding of Islam is like stoning the devil in Medina, Saudi Arabia!
