do u consider people who have a daily n weekly target to make?

Do u consider people who pay loans n pay weekly n daily?

Don't u think not opening on Monday will affect them?

See things from the business man angle n not the emotional angle,business men will bite their fingers n later on they will revolt against u when the heat is too much to bear

Bros if i have a phone to sell and advertise it daily, does it mean the day i don't advertise the phone, am at lost?
The people at lost are the govt that gets their revenues from the economy.
Have been in the market before, no be everyday u open shop u go sell.

Sunday2021:
why must they close their shops on Monday?

go ask them...

zombieHUNTER:
Useless senators...

Insecurity is raping your constituents..
All round the country.

Yet none of you have the cohones to bring up the topic of impeaching the lifeless president..

U r a joker.... It will be easier for a police corporal to plan a coup and succeed than for National assembly headed by lawan and gbaja to hear any noise about impeachment of buhari.

OLDESTWARRIBOY:
Atiku & GeJ won't still do any difference...can't you see what I have been telling you? We need to treat Everybody Bleep up according and leave tribal sentiments alone. North, South. Corruption is the problem of the country. You can't be say if your people are doing it you are not bothered but if another tribe is doing...you want to let hell loose

Everybody is corrupt, an average nigerian has a price that can be bought.
Thats why we need to build strong institutions not rely on people.
During gej era, person go mess for obete market, we go blame Jonathan. Thief enter house for obalende, dem curse jonathan, fire burn school for zango kataf, na jonathan cause am. Now the table don turn, the same things r happening daily, the same people that blamed jonathan r now pointing fingers at political elites, they kidnap pupils in Niger, them say r there no counsellors there?
We now shift blame from the center to wards and local councils.
Shebi u see how hypocritical we r as a people... So what we need is strong institutions, good constitution, restructuring so that what affects one state catch cold, it won't consume the entire country.

OLDESTWARRIBOY:
Optimistic?? Really? Same way we were optimistic Buhari will fix Nigeria in 2015?? Optimism won't do shit.

U were optimistic about buhari, i wasnt.
I knew his capacity so wasnt carried by their propagandist and vague campaigns.
Am smarter than that.
Voted gej 2015,votes atiku 2019.
I too smart and enlightened to be fooled by few fools

OLDESTWARRIBOY:
you are looking at it from the American perspective....lol fantasy!!

I'm looking at it from this shit hole perspective... Reality. Nothing will happen

Am looking at it from an optimist view.
There is more fraud and corruption in America than in Nigeria, in America institutions tries to curtail it.
Go read about 9/11...
U will see corruption...
Obama single handedly used tax payers money to create Isis just to battle syrian president out of power... Do u know how muxh was voted in and what middle men got..
Govt makes money thru infrastructural devt but makes more money during War.

NigeriaIsGreat:


Same Atiku who lost his polling unit 2019

Atiku can't win an election where Tinubu, buhari and co dey. The earlier you know this the better

I'm sure you know the VP slot you lots are hoping on will be given to ss


You never sabi memememe in naira malis voice

Atiku didnt lose his polling unit, osinbajo lost his polling unit..
Go back and verify.
Unless u be toddler.
And u think am igbo?
So all these was vain thoughts from a sophisticated interloper..
Am from akwaibom, typical south south pikin.
Dont care where or what region they zone it to, just telling u osinbajo can't be president.

Ikpunwanyianamb:
I would have answered you if you lived in the south east, you may not have also asked this if you were in the south east. I can only relate with those who know,kpele

Bobo i dont support ipob, but am asking if u don't open shop on mondays, will d goods and services spoil after that day?
Losing money is different from failing to make money.. U open ur shop sit till night u no make sales, ur goods r still intact than u sell but and instead of gaining u lost, n there r no goods in the shop.. So not making money is different from losing money.
The only people losing is the state govt cos they r now being restricted to getting taxes and revenues for 4working days instead of 5..
Every trader who goes to east to buy goods knows that monday is sit at home, so they travel on tuesdays n do theri shopping.

NigeriaIsGreat:
Keep your hope high till then

My own be say no come here con dey rant say they rig and o

U don't rig where u r not popular.
If atiku contest against osinbajo, he will lose like barca babes thrashing athletic bilbao women.
Just dont come here n make silly rants

OLDESTWARRIBOY:
See I'm all for each state controlling their resource and all that but the main issue, it's still won't fix anything. They will still loot the money. The only ones that will benefits are Governors and LGA chairmans

It will fix many things.. What we need is power, power n power.
Once there is stable power, average youth can do what he wants with lean resources.
States will have state police, na indigenes of that state them go employ, human capacity devt will be pursued earnestly, someone won't sit in asorock and wants to install a govr in someone's state.
There will be competition cos states won't wait for abuja to give them money.

I see beyond present crop of leaders, i don't believe all nigerians r evil like the present leaders we have..
When lateed jakande was govr of lagos state, he did so many things... His legacies r still visible till today...
Today most states r lazy cos they know atall atall money must enter their account every month end. With or without working..

NigeriaIsGreat:
Watch as it unfold na.

Una talk pass this one in 2015 and 19 during buhari time

That was buhari....
Cannu equate buhari to osinbajo?
Which southern states will give him bloc votes?
Abeg wake up...
The only avenue for osinbajo to be president is for bubu to die n he is sworn in as substantial president, outside that na opor, opor is a metaphor.

Ikpunwanyianamb:
so I set out from lagos to nnewi, reached headbridge in the evening . But one thing that caught my attention as I progressed from onitsha to nnewi is that most keke and bus drivers were all coming out to ply their trade , shops were opening. But I noticed they all wanted to make money and cover up from the day time loss, you needed to see the pity on their face. The south east have started suffering like the north o.

Please if you have major business as an igbo man relocate to SW or SS for your own good. Igbos in those locations are making their money on those days you stay at home.some people hid to my advice and are happier now

So if they don't sale those goods on monday, the goods will automatically expire and will never be sold again..
Abeg expantiate

NigeriaIsGreat:
Osinbajo is the next president guy

President of old boYs association of iyaadede grammar schools, osun.
All hail the new presido.

OLDESTWARRIBOY:
You just claimed you prefer your kinsmen to loot the money than Buhari/north which is the same difference.
Why not fight so that the money will not be looted at all and be used for what's needed.

That power plant issue is story for another day!!

I should fight that monies won't be looted, like buhari stopped it abi?
There will always be looting...so far loyalty is graded over competency in the nigerian polity..
If buhari that campaign to stop looting is even embroiled in looting, na me wan come stop am.. Will always be advocate of control what u have..
Whether we have thieves who r controlling it doesnt matter. They r just overseeing it but not custodians of the seat. Power is transient.. Tomorrow better leader will come, we don't want him to come start fighting for resource control, 13peecent derivatives, or VAT.

Obamaofusa:
Northerners have always been the greatest betrayers.They have betrayed all Nigerians by holding Nigeria down with their backwardness,They betrayed Ekwueme,they betrayed Abiola,they betrayed Awolowo etc.
They have always betrayed the South where the resources that the Northerners depend on come from.
No Northerner will become President in 2023.Those clowns are just foaming in the mouth.

God bless Yoruba nation.
God bless Igbo nation.
God bless Hausa nation.

There is different between betrayal and outright foolishness.

The north never betrayed the south..
The south foolishly and stupidly betrayed themselves just to spite the igbos or south southerners..
Since 2003 when buhari contested elections, has he lost any core northern states?
Obasanjo lost some states in the south, even in his south west, he lost some states. In 2011,pdp projected musilat akande to be speaker house of reps, the same south west went against her, femi gbaja who was minority leader then stood up and nominated aminu tambuwal from north west.
That is how north central had senate president, north west had both speaker n VP.
Where have u seen a northerner betray his own since the fourth republic?

seunmsg:
Yes, if the trader has not added any value to the goods.

Exactly...
So even if statr control and takes responsibility of VAT, they know where and where not to look for VAT.
Also telecoms VAT, that should not be issue, if am in uyo calling someone in Lagos, they r not charging the one that answered the call, na me in uy they r charging. So the VAT should be recorded to akwaibom.. Short and simple.

OLDESTWARRIBOY:
oya with the 13% derivative...what still happen? Have you been to baylesa recently?? Nothing happened. Who loot the money?? Shebi na Buhari and the north shebi?

So u will rather North and buhari loot the money than those from the states that the monies suppose to go to?
I earn 10naira every day, my employer pays me 2naira and share the rest to others who sits at home and play ludo while i was working.
And i protest this anomaly, instead of getting support from my co-workers, they came up with silly and idiotic thoughts.
Brother e better make monies accrued to my state be wastes by people from my state than make aboki wey no sabi nothing dey waste am.
Governance na turn by turn, no govt will be for ever, mostly 8yrs u pack and leave, another person will come in. Someday someday, someone with the fear of God and with patriotic instnct will be at the helm of affairs... I and we will rejoice.
Am from akwaibom, we generate 180mw of electricity, the power plant was built, financed solely by the state govt, but the state doesnt control the power we generate. 80percent of what we generate goes to other states while paltry 20percent is sent back to us.
Is this fair?

seunmsg:
VAT is actually a two ways thing. It rarely stand on one leg except in government agencies that charge vat from contract fees and remit straight to government.

An organization that is vatable is expected to pay net VAT. The net VAT is the difference between the input VAT and output VAT. So, shoprite pays vat at the port (input vat) packaged the goods for sale and then charge vat at the point of sales (output vat). The difference between the output and input vat is what Shoprite will remit to government.

That is why it is called value added tax. At every point value is added to the goods or services, vat is charged.

That's what am saying, VAT can't be attributed to every traders..

OLDESTWARRIBOY:



Na make am wan dey collect VAT for im state so that he fil loot go bank for Europe or worse use am sponsor Tambuwal 2023 presidency.

All these useless youths think say he dey fight for restructure, Dem even go give am award. Ona no know say all these politicians dey fight for their personal pocket/glory and don't give a flying f*ck about nothing!!







I sit down normally na...Dem tell you say I stand??

And wike will be governor for ever abi?
Even permanent secretary dey retire.
When attah fought for 13percent derivatives, na wetin some idiots been dey shout. He is fighting for his pocket, shebbi na victor attah still be govr of akwaibom state abi?
Na why the north will still be politically better than the south, unity of purpose, unity in evil, unity in destroying and unity in looting.
We r here making silly noise, blackmailing ourselves and making mockery of our people.
Since 2003 buhari contested elections, he won every core northern states.
Katsina, kano, kaduna, kebbi, sokoto, bauchi was all pdp states, but buhari won el3ctions in those states as opposition candidate.

seunmsg:
Make no mistake about it, there will be issues among states about VAT administration if the high court judgement is upheld. However, it is no big deal and not something we can work around. Even in the administration of PAYE, there are still interloping issues among states and that is why JTB was set up to handle some of these issue. JTB will still have a role to play in resolving issues relating to VAT administration by states.

As regard the part in bold, a trailer cannot just be transporting goods from Lagos to Aba from the blues. The owner of the goods must have imported it in which case custom VAT must have been paid at the port or he must have bought it from a manufacturer or seller in Lagos and in which case VAT must have been charged at the point of sales.

Even before the VAT controversy, anytime u go to shoprite n buy goods, u must pay VAT.
Some shopping malls too and eateries too, u must pay VAT.
Are u saying these goods sold in these malls though imported, they didnt pay custom VAT?

How much is Rivers debt profile?
Nigeria is using 98percent of its earnings to service debt, yet we r still borrowing to eat and loot.
A govt that borrows to fund projects in a particular region but the debts will be repaid mostly by niger delta money.
How many projects will this new loan finance in niger delta?

Nigeria will not continue if a northerner becomes president after PMB.

Who will stop it?
U or tinubu, who please?
An average southerner that is a betrayer...
We have 70percent of FfK character in the south, know this and know peace.

seunmsg:
Nobody ever said that rotational presidency is constitutional. It is an established political practice for unity, equity and national cohesion. It was on this basis that the north demanded for power shift in 2015 after Jonathan had completed Yaradua’s term and his own full tenure. It was also on this basis that all southern candidates who were far richer and popular nationally stepped down for Yaradua at the PDP convention in 2007.

So, saying it is unconstitutional is just playing the Ostrich. It was never about the constitution. The north has had its fair share of power from 2015-2023. Exactly on May 29, 2023, a southerner will takeover from Buhari. It is what it is and nothing can change it.

On VAT, I agree only with the part of the resolution calling for all parties to stay action till the matter is decided by the Supreme Court. VAT is a consumption tax and should never be a federal tax in the first place. However, we should all wait for the final judgement so as to avoid confusion in the system.

On open grazing, it remained banned in southern Nigeria. Livestock whatever is none of our business. Anybody that wants to go into cattle business should set up a ranch. It is as simple as that.

This VAT thing is really confusing people..
VAT means value added tax from sales tax.
VAT should only be applicable to firms that add values to an existing products or services.
So the notion of saying states will make VAT more cumbersome....
A trailer transporting goods from lagos to aba shouldnt pay VAT...
If someone buys jeans trouser in a shop in Lagos and takes it to his shop in aba, he can or cannot pay VAT...eateries pay VAT cos value is added to every services and products sales...
Let sensible people not allow few idiots to compound and make this VAT thing look as if it will increase prices of goods and services.
U can't pay VAT when u enter oshodi market and buy foodstuffs, but if u go to shoprite or any shopping mall to buy the same foodstuffs u must pay VAT.

Tinubuadvocate:
The only thing that can send this country to her early grave is when a northern man emerged as president in 2023.

The only thing that will send this country to early grave is when people read this comment of urs and take it serious.
Nigeria will continue even if north wins 2023.
Not u or ur sophisticated fools will do any jack.

Ezehillary:
That is what i expected and you ask why i will not support IPOB , ndi ara

Bros if power wan domiciled in North forever, let it be.
I will only vote a south easterner or south southerner come 2023, anything yoruba... Na die. U can't sabotage thesouth in 2015 and expect to blackmail them to south ur Candidate..
Let the North continue with their sophisticated tactics.

Kobojunkie:
There is more to this story than just that. According to the OP, they are both orphans, so the money she is supposedly hoarding, no be her children go get am eventually?
Op needs to communicate with his wife to really learn what the issue is.

If she is hoardng the money without letting the husband know, then she has hidden agenda.
Na men de dey secretive for marriage not wife.
When a wife becomes so secretive in her finances then there is serious issues.
There r some men that wont want to ask u about ur money cos of their pride, but its the duty of the wife to let her husband know what u earn, it shows maturity and submissiveness.
Anything short of that is error.
That marriage won't work, what they r doing is managing it.
What if the man stop earning money today, what will happen to the family?
If u have 20naira and can't share even when u r being taken care of, is it when there is crisis that u will start sharing...

Kobojunkie:
I just saw that too, and trying to understand what reasons she gave for this to OP.

That's the issue...
We read one story shared by a man fron ghana that said his wife was earning more wages than him, she was even buildng a lovely house for her dad, meanwhile she didnt contribute a dime in the house, he even took loans to buy her a car. We all read that story here...

Its saddening for a wife to be this heartless... For God sake if u r not ready for marriage, stay on ur lane.

Kobojunkie:
1. In marriage, there is no such as something your wife should do. Ask people who are honest and they will tell you the truth.

2. He hasn't said anything about whether she brings money or not for sure.

3. Submission in marriage is s choice not a given since we all do not subscribe to the same cultural or religious ideas

When you have been in a marriage for many years, you no longer meant to look for reasons, red flags, to help you end it, but instead for ways to help you grow, hopefully your marriage along with you.

He mentioned it, he said she is working but doesnt contribute to the house.

Kobojunkie:
Forget the gloss, those who you think are lucky have had to let go of many things to make even their relationships work the way it appears.

Sacrifice whatever you have to, in order to make your marriage work, that seems to be the general rule. I have seen men sacrifice even their ego so they can have a good marriage. A friend of mine does the cooking and cleaning in the house, even parks a lunch box every morning for his kids and wife because he says he is better at it than she is. His family is "tight" for it too.

Marriage is work and there are no roles in marriage at all - forget the meaningless lies folks spew about these things. Anyone who can do it should. Simple!

The issue with the guy isnt about doing the chores, but u r doing something that ur wife should do, but she is working yet u don't see where her money is going.
That is one red flag.
A woman that loves a man and accept a man must be SUBMISSIVE to him, let him know what u earn and all that. Why being secretive in ur finance, u don't contribute a dime in the project.
Marriage is a project that involves 2people and once the kids enters, they too join in making the project work.
I can't marry a lady that will hide her financial details from, not that i will ask u for ur money.

Different strokes for different folks...
Some dey protest against fuel hike, some dey march in favour of fuel hike..
Many protested against sars n its killing, plenty marched in support of sars atrocities...
Some dey protest without knowing what the protest is all about, my brothers this is genuine protesters. Dem no plenty and without uniform.
