Truthissupreme:
we need restructuring where every state control its own VAT and resources

That way there would be no hiding, every state would sit up and stop laziness

Fact of the matter...

TheLequte:
Going by these comments I don’t think CR7 will start that game. Maybe he won’t even feature at all sef.

You see, it looks like Ole is a nincompoop. The number one criteria he looks for when picking his starting XI is fitness and physicality. Other metrics are not half as important.

If you cannot run as fast as James, you’re not getting a sniff.

Ever wondered why James still starts games and Fred keeps getting the nod over more intelligent, more technical midfielders ? They run around a lot more than the others.

It doesn’t matter if they do it without any sense. To him they are the best.

This Ole guy is proving more and more that he doesn’t merit that position he’s in.

If I said this, folks will counter...

If the Executive (FG) and legislative arm of government are not going to entertain the idea of restructuring, the judiciary will help us restructure this goddamn country...

It's about time...

afrodoc2:
Left back.

Joined the Academy from Real Madrid and has been one of the standout players with the Reserves. Very good going forward but defensively suspect and slow. A bit like Alonso at Chelshit.

That means na LWB be him only hope of making it here...

Expert17:
Research sponsored by LiveScores (Ronaldo is a livescores ambassador ) carried out by Dr. Tom (CR7 fan ).

Research in the mud

I want them to bring out the stats since they're always on about stats...

afrodoc2:
Alvaro Fernandez

I don't think I have heard about him. What position does he play?

Trevor012:
I remembered When we wanted to buy Bellingham for cheap, people like Patrickmuf and others was typing nonsense on how Garner and Levitt was better than him . Every top club is gunning for his signature right now while others are here complaining about Fred

Oasis007:
Boys are ready for OP Newcastle must fall.

Who's that running beside Ronaldo?

odizeey:
Gbam!

No be calculations you go use take place shot?

Since you believe in stat, drop the number of goals and assist for Ronaldo and Messi as well as the number of games played let's see what the stats say...

It's Messi fans who should even be talking about stats as he clearly has a better career stat compared to Ronaldo but no, football is a lot more than stats and that's why Messi can still be adjudged the best player in games where he doesn't score or assist directly...

Ibkhaleel01:
you are always fed up with one single face of a story....and you capitalize in it....non-Christians throughout history and throughout the world, including pagans, all combined aren't even close to the Christians when it comes to these evil things!! 

If a single Northerner commits a crime or act it wil be on Nairaland as if the whole north is doing so....when we dont even knw abt it....but if it is you... you'll find excuses nd deny....

Aint you ashame?

This is not about crime as crime isn't restricted to a particular region or ethnic group but rather, this is about economic and social justice.

I can not be charged for each bottle of beer I consume down south and the proceeds of that VAT be shared with the Government of Kano that formed an illegal body tasked with destroying beer and other alcoholic beverages...Is it fair? You know how much the destroyed beer would have generated?

Let me even ask you, will you be comfortable if Southern Governors form a group backed by law and based on the tenets of Christianity and they go about harassing others using the Christian doctrine?

Hisbah is illegal or maybe you guys up North have a constitution that supercedes that of the country in general...

This VAT issue is just a tip of the ice berg, we will restructure this country off the judgements of the Courts...

odizeey:
Are you a professor of mathematics?

What has mathematics got to do with the beautiful game? That professor should focus on mathematics...Football is a lot more than stats.

If you watched the game between Poland vs England yesterday, you'd have seen Kane was trash for majority of the game but if you didn't and you looked at stats, you'd have seen he scored and thought to yourself that he had a good game...

Ibkhaleel01:
Whats wrong with this? So you are telling us that they are wrong by preventing people from been drunk and helping maintaining a saner society?

NL are the most useless media avenue av ever see... anything that Islam stands for or condemn is an issue to them...

Helbound creatures....keep drinking...keep sodomizing and doing sex...it is the teachings of your religion...

You're an illiterate...

Why don't your government decide for adults when they should get married, how many kids they should have (This one should even be a priority for you louts seeing how you illiterates reproduce like lower animals) and all what not...

Is anyone forced to drink? How about smoking weed and all? Aren't you guys renowned for sniffing latrines? Disgusting lot that's what you guys are up North.

Emmexguy123:
I think it's time all the southern governors join Gov.Wike on this VAT issue.

Lagos is in line. I expect Ondo to follow almost immediately...

Southern Governors should go ahead and form their own state police backed by law enacted by their respective HoA and based on the tenets of Christianity or secularism...Let's all be mad abeg, this charlatans up North have taken us for a ride for way too long...

I hope that Gombe Commissioner is seeing what Hisbah or whatever lawless platform they're are doing to people's businesses. Is constitutionally right?

Make I see how una go take collect VAT on top the same alcohol...

Ben Ayade and Cross River HoA, make una better get sense...

TrebleChamp:
Is it settled now?

Lol that man's formula is wack. See where Maradona is placed...His formula was stats based which is a very inaccurate way to judge footballers...

Even if we want to look at stats, Messi has a better scoring ratio than Ronaldo, he is more creative and is better on the ball...

GloryIsaac:
Is this sincere or a sincere jab?

Fred aka eph is my man...

Doc just like wahala.

Eph12, don't mind them...

Fred will shame them all...

afrodoc2:
Who will create for who? It is not by loading strikers who will be stepping on one another's toes in the box. There should be at least one creative person in the front 3.

With Sancho unfit i would prefer Pogba at LWF, CR7 at CF, Greenwood at RWF with Cavani, Martial and probably Sancho on the bench.

Bruno at no 10, Matic/McTom and VDB at CM with Hannibal, Lingard, Mata on the bench.

Exactly what I thought, they're all finishers.

Ray07:
nope . . . because the PSG machine get injury. Na bench martial go the chop

At least he is next in line in any case of substitution of a forward player...

This Zamfara illegal gold exploitation is painful as a Southerner...

Oil from the Niger Delta is exported and the proceeds shared amongst the 36 states and FG but Gold in Zamfara belongs to Zamfara.

If militants and all this Niger Delta leaders were serious about their agitation for resource control, then they'd have stopped all the activities of IOCs in the region...

Amotolongbo:
You are the perfect poster face for the collapse education structure in the country if you don’t know that this question is a practical question meant for the students of that department.

This is simply a very good case study question to test the students comparative mental skill and knowledge. And as a faculty of arts students. They are expected to be aware of public activities and figures. Only if they don’t want to practice in the field

This is the department of English and Literature, faculty of Art for goodness sake. Obviously there is a novel which has a Cubana-like character which is part of the books recommended to them for the course.

Omo! See how your humble the guy.

Extend it to the local government...

Ibkhaleel:
Anti-Muslim demagoguery relies on the demonization of the Prophet Muhammad (sallallaahu alaihi wasallam), who is characterized by Islam-hating liars as being especially violent and warlike. This propaganda has certainly gained currency in the “Judeo-Zionist-Freemasonic-Christian West”. When it is pointed out that the Biblical prophets–including Moses, Joshua, Samson , Saul , David , among many others–were far more violent and warlike (and even engaged in religiously sanctioned genocide ), anti-Muslim pro-Christian ideologues will respond by disregarding or downplaying the Old Testament and will instead focus on the personality of Jesus (‘Eesa alaihissalaam) in the New Testament.

Didn’t Jesus preach nonviolence and “loving one’s enemies”? The anti-Muslim ideologues use this idea to assault the religion of Islam with. For example, the Catholic apologist shaitaan Robert Spencer compares Islam to Christianity by juxtaposing carefully selected quotes from Jesus to Islamic texts. In his book The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (and the Crusades) , Spencer includes a “Muhammad vs Jesus” section. He cites the following sayings of Jesus in the Bible:

“Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you”

“If anyone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also”

“Blessed are the peacemakers”

“Blessed are the merciful for they shall obtain mercy”

“But love your enemies, and do good”

These so-called “peaceful” verses of the Bible are compared to select battle revealed-Quranic verses. The violent verses of the Bible “don’t count” and are craftily excluded from the comparison (“that’s just the Old Testament!”). To tighten the noose, peaceful verses of the Glorious Qur’an are also excluded from the heavily biased analysis, the shaitaan  gives his evil reason for that: these “don’t count” since they are supposedly from when Muhammad was still in Mecca.

To understand the last point, one needs to have a basic understanding of the Prophet Muhammad’s (sallallaahu alaihi wasallam) biography: he first declared his prophethood in the city of Makkah. Only a very small segment of society accepted him (mostly the weak and poor), whereas the masses–especially the powerful leaders of the city–not only rejected him but actively persecuted him. The chapters of the Qur’an that were revealed during this period are known as the Makkan chapters. Eventually, Prophet Muhammad (sallallaahu alaihi wasallam) was commanded by God to fled to the city of Madinah, whose people accepted him as their ruler. He went from persecuted prophet to ruler and commander-in-chief of a fledgling city-state.

The anti-Muslim ideologues claim that the peaceful and tolerant verses of the Qur’an come from when Prophet Muhammad (sallallaahu alaihi wasallam) was weak and persecuted in Mekkah. According to this islamophobe Baboon, These verses are “cancelled”, they argue, by the violent-sounding verses in the Medinan chapters.
Robert Spencer writes in his book:

Islamic theology divides the Qur’an into “Meccan” and “Medinan” suras [chapters]. The Meccan ones come from the first segment of Muhammad’s career as a prophet, when he simply called the Meccans to Islam. Later, after he fled to Medina, his positions hardened. The Medinan suras [are]…filled with matters of law and ritual–and exhortations to jihad warfare against unbelievers. The relatively tolerant verses quoted above and others like them generally date from the Meccan period, while those with a more violent and intolerant edge are mostly from Medina.

The Islamophobe deceivers portray Prophet Muhammad (sallallaahu alaihi wasallam) as opportunistic:

when he was weak and under the rule of the pagans, he called for peace. Without being in a position of authority, Muhammad was hardly in a position to do otherwise. As soon as he came to power, however, he waged “jihad warfare” (what a strange phrase!) against them. This is why, they argue, the peaceful verses of the Quran simply “don’t count”.

For now, however, we will demonstrate that, using such logic, it is equally possible to invalidate the “peaceful” sayings of Jesus. While he was a persecuted prophet, Jesus advocated nonviolence and peaceful resistance. He was hardly in a position to do otherwise, right? Once in power, however, this changes dramatically and violent warfare becomes the new
modus operandi .

God has allowed for just wars throughout the history of His people. From Abraham to Deborah to David, God’s people have fought as instruments of judgment from a righteous and holy God. Romans 13:1-4 tells us to submit ourselves to government authorities and that nations have the right to bear the sword against evildoers, both foreign and domestic.

Violence occurs, but we must recognize the difference between holy judgment on sin and our own personal vendettas against those we dislike, which is the inevitable outcome of pride

Jesus sayings...

Luke 19:27 But these enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and kill them in my presence.

Death and destruction will be the fate of whoever does not accept Jesus’ reign as Warrior King.
This was hardly an innocuous story. It reminds us of a scene in the movie Gladiator when the evil Roman emperor Commodus tells his nephew a story about an “emperor” who was betrayed by his sister (“his own blood”) and how he “struck down” her son as revenge. (Watch it here.) The story was a thinly veiled threat, as was Jesus’ parable.

One can only hardly imagine how Islamophobes like Robert Spencer would react had it been the Prophet Muhammad who had used such a violent parable, threatening to return to earth in order to “slay” anyone who “did not want me to reign over them”! This would certainly “count” since all violence in the Quran “counts” whereas whatever is peaceful in the Quran “doesn’t count”, and whatever is violent in the Bible “doesn’t count” and whatever is peaceful in the Bible “counts”. Heads I win, tails you lose.

Are you in any form trying to justify the actions of the Taliban or your religion in general wherein women are treated like second class humans?

Let's even assume Christianity is equally violent, does it then give credence to what is happening in most Muslim dominated
countries?

In no time, the west will arm those against the Taliban to strengthen their resistance beyond protest on the streets and to drive up weapon sales and then they'll likely be a decade or more long civil war...

Martial should make more runs and not always expect the ball played to his feet.

He is getting sharper.

GloryIsaac:
As earlier stated, it’s down to confidence, and it’ll be really sad to have him leave or downgrade after all the praises heaped on him ahead of arrival to this club.

Olé just has to find a way to utilize that guy, because after all the talk about him, I refuse to believe he’s a below-average player.

He is a top player...

Any news on Pogba and his contract saga? If he is leaving for free, Ole should better start playing VDB...

elrony:
I swear this life no balance at all... Ewww chim

Baba I love the way you responded to Ola because not everyone will be so calm.

Jones is a Manchester United players so, expect people to have opinion of his play. You don't have to reach the level of Buhari to criticize him...

GloryIsaac:
YouTube clips have time and again proven not to be trustworthy, but judging by the level of analysis done on VDB here over two years before he joined the club, best say his confidence is quite low at the moment.

Fear of making a mistake when called upon.

At least we saw him in the UCL and he didn't look bad against the best of the best...VDB is only below Pogba in terms of technical ability...I'd even say he is our most intelligent midfielder but somehow, it doesn't seem to be working out for him here...

amc:
Meanwhile Rivers State VAT contribution is just over 10% of what Lagos state contributes yet he is the one making the most noise.

https://www.thecable.ng/adeosun-half-nigerias-vat-comes-lagos

So, what is your point?

Even if Rivers contribute 0.1% it is well within the right of the state to collect it...Lagos state is evening in support of the judgment so quit trying to whip up ethnic division...

This is one of the best news yet...

Let each state government put on their thinking cap. The era of the FG collecting taxes and sharing it disproportionately across the states is gone.

Kudos to the Rivers state government and to the government of Lagos state for supporting this move.

They simply have been under reporting their earnings. The over 7bn didn't fall from the sky...

Most government agencies under report their earnings.

Ceenachi:
You destroy bottles of alcoholic beverages, and beat up people that sells cigarette in the North, but want to eat VAT collected from the sales of these items. Is that not witchcraft?

This is it...
