Hmm, if Jonathan decides to run in 2027, it will be a big challenge for Tinubu and APC considering the poor performance of this administration, infact it's going to be a landslide victory for Jonathan


I'm sure they will try to persuade and negotiate with him

Kindly let's see your strategy of how Jonathan will win jagaban. What will be Jonathan selling point when he can't do that as a seating president. He knows Obi will even has more votes than him due to the usual tribalism. These people can win elections on social media but not in the polling booth.

For jagaban, well, I know a lot of Nigerians knows he meant well for Nigeria and he keep doing all what he promised. The fact that all his policies are the right policies but being neglected by previous administrations, coupled with his firmness in doing what is right even if painful is the main reason Nigerians will still vote him. He will soon pump money for development to the LG. Mind u, any new incoming government can never returned subsidy of 1000/ litre for fuel to be selling at 200 Naira or dollar subsidy of 1400/dollar for dollar to go back to 200 Naira.

U pple should think small before opening ur mouth ...everyone pay taxes in this Nigeria directly or indirectly

..millions of pple employed by a company pays PAYE tax, companies pay income tax on revenue, additionals by-force education tax is charged on all big business and those using generator to run big business pay emission tax,, they even pay business premises tax...

you will surely be paying VAT if u are buying any goods in this country....

There is withholding tax if u are collecting interest on ur saving from bank and collecting contracts from any company..

Nobody is escaping stamp duty...even local government tax is charged on small market women and small shops owners...

There is , land use tax for home owners for jutt owning a building weda residential or business that makes money or not...

So what on earth do u mean by someone doesn't want to pay tax...

The question has always been what exactly are our taxes used for..?? for the 3 arms of government to live luxury life style??

Tax payers money is use for free education in Europe, even for international student for free to any level of education in countries like Germany
It is used for free education, free health care, and agricultural subsidy in the UK....

If everyone sees what their money is used for..everyone will be happy to pay even 50% of their income...whats the essence of contributing to purse that is embezzled

All these pple in government studied for free in this country, ......e reach their turn they are strangling masses, and embezzling money

Pple that are actually paying taxes worried where their money is going to ...but pple like you are on zómbie autopilot making pple that want accountability look like they are wrong

Are they paying you pple for this behavior or you are just choose to support poor governance and stvpid leaders...

You just typed what u think but not the reality. Don't be emotional. You talk of all taxes available but you didn't state how many people are paying it in Nigeria. Nigerians don't believed in paying tax, especially from the north, Many companies deducted payee from Thier staff but never remitted it to government. Tax is not popular in Nigeria in terms of payment. So now you are saying we should continue the old way. Tinubu made tax popular when he was Lagos State governor. Just read the bills and learn.

Okortor:
If not for tribalism, I don't see any big deal in nnewi masquerade coming to Lagos so long Yoruba's egungun also parade Lagos.

To come and do what exactly? If you know the meaning of tradition, such a masquerade or any other in any part of Nigeria will only be effective in his ancestors land not foreign land. Imagine women don't see it, meaning women in Lagos that doesn't know the masquerade will not go to work? Not possible. It will not be respected.

Ikpunekenwa:
Like same buhari APC brought that crippled Nigerias hope?

I always believed there must be turning point in life.

prinsam30:
Other country system is working fine can u confidently say that about ur country, technically the answer is NO... Rather they siphon the money to them Selves and life goes on

The narrative will change now. Reason they didn't want the bill to pass is because they want to continue the old system of symphony the economy.

PressMyButton:
I hope noisemakers are watching the moves of Jagaban, the master strategist. He did not withdraw the bill, he directed AGF to work with NASS to address contentious areas in the bill. Senate then set up a committee to meet with the AGF to address the grey areas. Most of the members of the committee are Jagaban's boys. Meanwhile, Jagaban is still in South Africa while his boys in Aso rock are running things, When he comes back, every issues will be case closed. Opposition will have their say and Jagaban will have his way.


After God, na Tinubu 💪 God bless Nigeria.

Guy u too they press button oo, you understand this jagaban strategy well. Most people making noise didn't know the city boy. As he landed now, the bill is passed already. He owns loyalty of more than 50% on the national assembly and 36 states assembly of the country. This guy Na 1st Nigeria president since 1999.

cjudy:
I pay it in a country that uses it not a country that the government officials embezzled it. One of your saint got 753 duplexes in the capital territory. Are you not worried what others are doing with your so called tax?

You are correct but those countries started doing the right things several years back not today. Nigeria is just starting to abolish the tax laws of 1930 and the tax will be utilised well now unlike the much corrupt systems we are used to for years.

stainzvill:
Welcome back pepper dem gang

I love they way the guy they pepper us to think straight. Now that the eagle has landed, with just two meetings, the Tax bill is passed, this man Na solutions provider I beg.

cjudy:
I thought their Oga had his way, the one they classified after God. Why not approve the Reform na. Since he came into power people in that country knows no peace. New Tax every week. Soon they’re going to tax the air they breathe him. Heard you now pay 50naira for every transaction you receive and the money is going to FG account. Tax Tax Tax. Northerners go humble una

You don't want to pay tax in Nigeria but willing and paying every tax outside the country. Nigeria will be gr8

What am sure is that it will be amended and passed. Except no be bills from jagaban burgu. The amendment will not be so pronounced but will be on the % figures just to let the sleeping dog lies.

tutudesz:
Zulum and Atiku can now see that 4 region out of 6 are supporting the bill So they should look for another excuse

Zulum ( gov forum chair) , Atiku and Shettima (NEC chairman) are all from same zone opposing the bill, I think we need to investigate what's going on. Or are they different from other zones?

MightySparrow:
https://guardian.ng/life/t-pain-and-four-other-names-nigerians-call-tinubu-and-the-stories-behind-them/

Jagaban burgu and Asiwaju are chieftaincy titles while The rest are nicknames.

G0Oodharddick:
It's a fight between SW and the North.

I can bet my balls that the north will win as usual and the SW won't do any shit about it. They just love to shout and make empty noise

Am 💯% sure you have not read the key details of the tax bill. Nigerians must do something different to get different results. No government have had it well to reform the tax since 1930 and we are talking of better Nigeria? How?

Anyway, Tinubu will win this tax bill, just follow. You see the difference between Tinubu and the past government is his boldness to stand by what is good. Northern governors and NEC kicked and suggested withdrawal for more consultation but Tinubu said go and debate whatever you think u know at the national assembly. I love that intelligent. It only want to expose how uneducated the north are. Let's see how it will be killed when it actually favours them. Lazy governors. They just want to sit down and collect allocation from Abuja, imagine Zamfara contribute only 8 Billion but collecting 432 Billion from FG. You kicked against Betting, alcohol and others but sharing from the money FG made from that. So, make we they drink and u will just be collecting money? Na lie.

Btruth:
Imagine. Gen. Gowon should be expecting an open letter soon from Ebora Owu. 😁

OBJ thinks he is the only one that can talk at others, Gowon just let him know that as his senior, he made the move to save his life. I believed him because Abacha no send anyone. If Na others, OBJ will be bragging and sending unnecessary letters.
I love that fact that Gowon said it in his presence.

Thewrath:
I came across a post from one lunatic saying that SE so against the tax reform bill..
He didn’t hear it from SE fed and state reps,
He didn’t hear it from SE governors or kings or chiefs,he didn’t hear it from ohanaeze or SE leaders!

Turns out it’s their usual insecure instincts because they can’t squarely face the north and now want other southern region to speak up in support of the bill via reverse psychology!

Since the bill provides for states to keep bulk of generated VAT or TAX,is it not time for us to separate so all states can keep everything?

They should also reform the oil industry bill so all states get to keep bulk of what they generated and let SE go and “suffer” with their highest gas deposits and crude oil reserves,since you guys claim they don’t generate much….unless of course the fed govt has been lieing with figures that it’s been using to cheat the SE.

Let SE go,it’s resources is enough it it!

Sincerely I wish SE can go, but when I saw the 40 states declared by Ekpa guys then I know they are just joking and can't stand alone. Why dragging other regions to joining the 40 states. IPOB Na only 5 states. SS are not part of Biafra Republic.

Anijay1212:

It is not about the gym instructor, it's all about the lack of self control by those women. Any woman that decides to cheat will do so whether it is with her gym instructor, male gynecologist, boss at the office etc.
Women should guide their hearts against any man other than their spouses that shows them excessive kindness, too much listening ears, unsolicited gifts , even some extraordinary patience and understanding etc.
All na format to get into your pants. Please beware.

Women are moved by what they hear, even if they know you are lying. Everything about women is packaging, they are so easy to get nowadays. Except very few that find it difficult to expose Thier body anyhow. Or those that cannot afford to see another person unclothedness.

Frigga13:
See as his fellow Yoruba people on line they worship am on empty belle


Pathetic..

Tribalism is dangerously evil…
It sells not only the conscience but the brain

I pity SE future in leadership. Nsogbu nsogbu no help why no try the correct way.

omowolewa:
The golden chance is gone

Lolz. That is to say, opportunity doesn't come with Lebel.

Bobloco:
Tinubu is a mad man

getting to two years, still pledging

How many Nigerians has planted something or anything for the past two years and harvesting now? Bandits are not everywhere but people just dey wait for Abuja miracles.

RedScorpion:
The Northern Sharia States to be precise ..

Their eyes go clear

Just see how they will tactically withdraw Sharia enforcement when hunger want kill them

Zico5:
We still have a long way to go in this country. Why is Tinubu rushing to pass the bill? There must be something untoward about the tax bill and that's why they want to pass it quickly the way they removed the subsidy and FX rate. Let them explain it thoroughly in layman way and let people see the transparency in the bill. Tinubu will burn this country down the way he is going.

What is rushing??

We delayed every thing to be done by government for the people is the main reason we suffer in Nigeria.

PIA bill took about 10 years and what is the end of it? To construct road takes longer time, to pay minimum wage takes longer time etc

Why should Zamfara or Borno barn alcohol, betting etc in Thier state but collected FG allocation made from alcohol and betting?

Governors will wake up now to think inward and develop Thier state.

IfnobeGod20:
Thankfully you've deviated from your first comment on Yoruba norms.

Bayo Onanugu reply to issues are always void of diplomacy. He uses some vulgar words that is not expected of the office he represents. That's just the bone of contention and that was what Baba Bode George is talking about, that Tinubu would have chosen his words to reply OBJ and not the kind of wordings used by Bayo Onanugu.

Read my first comment well, I said 'official' statement. So what is the deviation?

tundegan:
Sanwo Olu the man!

This guy is a workaholic. I love the fact that he is always around the president.

He was Tinubu PA before so he knows his job well. Lolz

IfnobeGod20:
Please which part of Yoruba land did you come from? In Yoruba land when elders are talking, youth don't have idea. Before you talk, you must first seek permission from the elders and be permitted to talk and when you're talking you must not use foul words, hence, you will be reprimanded immediately. That's the Yoruba culture I grew up to know.

Yes, in the family or community on Yoruba affairs, respect is a must even if the elder is wrong. But

Is Obasanjo and onanuga talking on Yoruba issue or national issues that involves all tribes in Nigeria. Or are u saying their should be no response? Or the content of the response is not correct? Or what exactly!!

Yoruba do make references to the past to remind anyone forgetting his doings or past impact for you to take note. Not necessarily to insult.

When Tinubu reminds Buhari of his contributions, actions and understanding that lead to him becoming the president was that an insult or a reminder?

My own is , don't do whatever you will not like to be reminded of in future.

Nigerians know what OBJ did on elections during his tenure which late Yar'Adua affirmed then and onanuga just reminded him so that he should know in case he forgot. Not an insult it's an international issue because OBJ make the statement outside Nigeria.

MadamVanessa:



But but Yorubas are known to be respectful to their elders and southwest is the most respectful region,. Their respect to their elders is inherently ingrained in their DNA. If Obasanjo with his achievements and pedigree is been insulted like this by bunch of noneñtities, imagine old people there without name and wealth. I pity them, because they have received so much insults and humiliation from their children.

It's not an insult in Yoruba land for someone to officially respond to an official comment. If no response and making it clear as he did, OBJ will do worse. Bode should remember that he made a statement during OBJ tenure that sends him to jail, that's OBJ for u. But OBJ fear Tinubu die because Na madness for madness.

As for Age, elders in Yoruba land always think of the consequences of Thier talks and actions before they made it. OBJ is not the oldest elder statesman in Nigeria but always like to talk this way suggested he is not a proper owu man.

siofra:
Yes, they should keep a separate bag for their boxers. It should be clean and sterile. That's how responsible men behave.

Watch how Nigerian men will justify their dirtiness under this thread🤢🤮

Lolz, ok

So how many times will women change their panties and bra in a day or during office hours? Knowing fully well that naturally women body fluids are acidic in nature.

Lanretoye:
Collect money from people wey Dey play bet even with borrowed money and give award to who no Dey play bet.

Every business or action taken in life is a risk, not advised to play with borrowed money. But people are making it good if you are skilled

Zionmdde:
The common man is still buying fuel over 1k, something tinubu met at 185. Jinx breaker ko, suffering imposer ni

Refinery this refinery that, as long as the common man is not directly feeling the positive effects, it's all rubbish

It's good we are focused. Jagaban is a gr8 man will iron balls to fight his fellow cabals. Face the reality, Many refineries on board will encourage competition making price to come down gradually in future and do not expect 180 Naira miracles. Econet and MTN started this way with difficulties before Glo and Etisalat join and today people didn't remember how we do night browsing because poor people can't avoid data and the phone that browse then.

shortgun:
Everything about Peter Obi is so presidential, you can smell efficiency and productivity in him from another planet. 🫡🫡

It's easier to make comments but has he followed it before now. Was he transparent in Anambra by using state money to finance his family business

NamelessOGBENI:
Interesting times ahead.

My oga, am so happy to see the beginning of advert on petrol for the first time, especially remembering how we used to be harassed by Petro attendants during scarcity in the past.

AntiChristian:


Some will still say Dangote is not selling anything!

Those who believed Buhari was cloned as Jibril El Sudani!

Tinubu is Amoda Ogunlere!

People's eyes dey see things o!

Billionaire Rabiu aka BUA too would join later!
Other refineries too will join!

Then team Nigeria will keep winning!
Team overseas refineries will lose forever!

Amen oooo

cremedelacreme:
See wetin Tinubu has reduced Nigeria to. People are now doing 'barb me this week, I barb you next week' just to save cost

It's funny but, We need to face reality at times, am glad to adjust a lot of things in my doings. I seriously regulates power consumption in my house now and To attend any occasion now, I prefer sending my transport to and fro to the celebrants that deserves it especially outside Lagos. One thing I realised is that those celebrants did not die or get angry but rather appreciate unlike before the I will go with friends to catch fun on a journey not considering risks and expenses.
