Am not surprised, the person saying this is Solomon not a jihadist that want VAT to pay Bandit


Solomon Kumangar the Director-General, Media and Communications, Adamawa State Government, stressed that it will improve the northeastern state’s Internally Generated Revenues (IGR) and reduce
its reliance on federal allocations.

Yes... That's my state director,
We from Adamawa we are all in support of wike's moves. Let every state collect its VAT and remit 0.05% to federal government not the other way round.

The governors will be forced to better the ease of doing business in their States. If you overcharge the businesses without providing good incentives , they'll leave for a state that is better for them to pay their vats

When it comes to population and number of Federal government employees,the north is number one.When it comes to taxes and revenue generation.They are last.When it comes to sharing the taxes and revenue generated from other states they want to be part of it.

Good development.
As long as each states utilize the VAT for the development and progress on their people.
As long as it won't end in the foreign accounts of politicians in the states.

We've talked about ranching many times here.
This is how things are done in saner climes.
Miyetti Allah need to give the good ones among their members all the re-orientation that things can be done the way it is done in civilized nations.

The ONLY constant thing in life is CHANGE.

The bill was not meant to attack anybody, but that it was all-embracing.
Land resources were very important to the state, adding that the relationship between cattle herders and farmers should be symbiotic.

A better Nigeria all around is all we want.
God bless Adamawa State.
God bless Nigeria.

FIRS should be scrapped. FG should as a matter of concern liase with States to directly remit a portion of VAT collected from services rendered in their domain.
Restructuring without war begins
Re: Adamawa Becomes First Northern State To Support VAT Reform by Jackbaur88: 3:55pm On Sep 09, 2021
The truth is most of our states are not viable, if not 95%.
We need true fiscal federalism as Nigeria is a federal republic In theory, but not in practice.
Many of the injustices , insecurity and other key issues we are crying of today will be addressed with true federalism been practiced.

The importance of states collecting VAT will no doubt strengthen their financial buoyancy and promote the tenets of a true "federation"



The present centralized system is an aberration.



In a true federation, states ought to be the ones contributing to the Federal Government based on well worked out percentages from resources gotten from individual states.



But the paradox of the Nigerian system is that the cart is pulling the horse.



States troop to Abuja every month to worship FAAC officials in other to get their allocations.



If states are allowed to tap from the available resources within their domain, Nigeria will witness a tremendous improvement across all spheres of life in no distant time.




States like Gombe and Katsina are advised to sit-up because the VAT train has already left the station!

There's more gain to this if states begin to collect VAT. It'll help in rapid development. And any Gov that refused to develop his state will have no reason to give again.

I heard in the news this afternoon that the 36th States Attorney General have sued Attorney General of the Federation also contesting the right of the States to collect duty post.

Las Las, it's a win-win for the people.

But through, Buhari's action have woken up States mostly the Southern States to determine the right thing be done.

With this Nigeria is at the verge of being liberated.

Thanks to Wike for instituting the suit.

Gov Wike the Hero of the southern States and Tormentor of the northern States.

Northern governors & elites are
basically too lazy...

All they do is to market Sharia to the
illiterate, ignorant, gullible masses.

While the masses are busy celebrating
the Sharia law ( which is only enforced on
the same masses), the elite go on an
embezzlement spree, marrying Arabian
wives, buying countless cars & houses for
their children & additional concubines
& further buying houses in choice
locations of Lagos, Kaduna, Abuja, Dubai & Indonesia.

❌But to show the foolish masses how
religious & godly they are, they use
government resources to finance the
building of more mosques.

❌All they do is to wait for month end to
share in revenue derived from the
Niger Delta, Lagos, SW .




Wike had spoken, no going back⏸️⏹️◀️ ❗️❗️


Idiots building mosques in every ministry or parastatal, then going ahead to building a central mosque again in every 5 kilometres.

Antoeni:
Atiku must have influenced this
In other to get the support of southern Nigeria

Your ignorance on this subject matter is palpable

Do you know d volume of industries in Adamawa state??

Its the most industrialised state in d North East. Meanwhile FG have been collecting VAT from all those companies and taking d money to kano

Anyway, Gov Fintiri ( neither a Muslim or Christian, lol) is about the best Gov Adamawa have had so far and best performing with zulum in NE. Built the first flyover in NE Nigeria, so he's never a push around, even to Atiku, if u know, u know. He became Gov on his merit, period.

Ask urself y is FG silent, simply they r on the wrong foot here. VAT=consumption tax is on the recurrent list and should be controlled by d state.

VAT is even originating from 1997 constitution and not 1999.

And since 2015, there have been more than 3 judgements on this same matter and all of them have been consistent that states should be controlling VAT.

Y this APC govt is fraudulent, is because the likes of Tinubu, Fashola as Gov , criticised and fought with FG on this VAT issue. And promised Nigeria fiscal federalism. Suddenly they are silent in Govt to protect their interest.

This fraud have been going on because, anyone who goes to court is asked ur locus on d matter. But here, wike is showing them pepper, because an Attorney general of a state has every right to push for d case.

Even the fraudulent FIRS secretly wrote a letter to NA to find a way to smuggle VAT into d exclusive list.

But, generally it's only a lazy and unproductive Gov/state that'll oppose this move. That's y d North is calm and humbled. Watch how they'll try and bribe some Southern Govs with money n political position to scuttle d case going to Supreme Court. Even Tanko cannot help them.

Simple put, every state and Gov should think outside d box and create a conducive environment for SMEs and businesses. So they can gen VAT in s long run and reduce unemployment.
