Greetings To You All.

The Boom in IGR in Enugu State, Does it Have An Equal Effect On The People?

I marveled and pondered for a while when the news hit my Palm, the sudden rise of Enugu State internal generated revenue. As the figures state; Enugu State gulped up to one hundred and eighty billion, fifty million naira (180.50bn) in 2024 fiscal year.

Is this a sign of relief? I became nervous and began to ask questions, how could Enugu State, my State rank fifth among the thirty-six States of the federation in terms of IGR. My nervousness led me to a couple of friends, as we were sitting, having a bottle or two while watching with excitement as Manchester United cruised past Sunderland FC of England 2:0 without the Opposing team registering even a single goal, is that the first clean sheet of the Season?

On the course of the discussion, I was told a few things that are ongoing in Enugu State, and the new proposed systemic taxation, pending the approval of the State house of Assembly. Although, Popp has not verified it to confirm it. I then asked, is Governor Peter N Mbah's socioeconomic reforms going to be a blessing or a thorn on the fresh of Enugu people?

It's unequivocally clear that the Governor is learning from his master, President Tinubu, but the question that's begging for an answer is, are these reforms and taxation on our people also have the same effect on the dividend of the democratic government we drive?

We all know the United Kingdom and how they tax their Citizens to the extreme, but it's not arguable that the unemployment rate is abysmally low for the UKs, major or the basic needs of live like food, shelter and clothing poses little or no challenge to these people. Infrastructural advancement is top notch, security is off the hook, Hospitals are well equipped and many more that I cannot be counting.

It is not just to tax and press our necks, the governor needs also to leave no stone unturned in making sure that his administration penetrates all the nooks and crannies of Enugu State. I am expecting a federal line, (33.10) to be stepped down in Enugu Urban, Nsukka, Orji River, Ukehe, Udi, Agwu and many more places. Not just to make some of these places "Urban" with the sole aim of pressing our neck in terms of taxation which I don't even know if I will call it extortion.

Here comes my question, since the sudden rise of internal generated revenue of Enugu State is the off spring of our amiable governor's economic reforms, do they also have the same effect on the daily lives of the people of Enugu State?

I calmed my nerves to read the story to see if their is any thing else I would see.

Is it not the Mateta that I watch? He has no skill, I can't sign him to a big Club if I am the Couch.

Truthfully, take a closer look at that man, is he twenty-eight years?

techbro1:
Omoooo this car still exists? That’s crazy. It was so popular in Calabar back in 2008/2009. I’m so surprised to see one in such a good looking conditon

You said it was popular in Calabar as years back as 08/09 while the OP said it was manufactured in 2010.

How, why?

South Sudan.

Benjamin S. to the world.

My Mentor then in Christiandom, Rev Pastor Jideofor died peacefully just like PA Adeboye said, on a Sunday afternoon after returning from Church Service.

He sat in his Sitting room and ate to his satisfaction and told his wife that he is going.

That was just that.

dawnomike:
As nice as it is to see Nigerians excel on the global stage... Losing our identity should never be a bergain.

I don't support anything gay, but in relation with your comment, the identity shouldn't be talked about now since the stage now is global.

Obembet, which one be full back and centre back again?

Rrchrd:
I know the country isn't for the fainted heart but...
1) I'll never kill
2) I'll never date a married woman
3) I'll never steal
4) I'll never smoke
5) I'll never bow for any god.

Me, I can't even imagine any of those things above except smoke, not cigarette smoking ooh! If I must smoke, it must be a medicinal smoke.

Shey you see that number 3. Guy take a chill pill, we all have fallen for it, in one form or the other.

Don't come to social media and start forming spotless. At early stage, meat in the pot, food that is not yours, biscuit, groundnut, those little little things we did as children.

Some people will always smile or pose immediately they see Camera facing them.

In this case, he is smiling to the Correctional Centre.

In his mind; "Una don nab mi today, I know say one day E go be, E don be na, no Lele, make I go serve"

Trump that cannot speak good English is forming for a Liberian President simply because he is an African, a black man.

Do you all know how many times a high School teacher in US ha corrected and picked plenty of blunders in Donald Trump's English grammar.

Giggs played all his professional football without getting even a single red card.

Oliver Giroud won the world Cup with France, he played the number nine role but didn't get a single shot on target through out the competition.
