garfield1: See how you managed to conflate the residual list. The residual list means matters that are not captured in the exclusive and concurrent list. If VAT is not in both, then it automatically moves to residual list. It's commonsense and your claim is an attempt to construe the residual list to mean matters that are not of grave importance is a fallacy and rubbish to be candid. What parameters exactly do you use to determine matters that are not of grave importance for example? And how do you know the VAT on alcohol is a tiny percentage? I'm sure you do not have that fact!! Again, stop being a house niggar! 1 Like |

Terrence99: Don't mind the house niggar. Where is it written in the constitution that the residual list is for matters that are not serious. Who is to determine matters that are serious and the ones that are not? At what point does a particular matter become serious from being not serious Dude is just an aboki in the realest sense |

Agboriotejoye: There is no oil company in crs currently and there are very few companies in crs which are already suffering from multiple taxation.nothing much will change,ebonyi state governor also cried.it is not just the northerners that are crying.wike's allusion is one sided,he failed to show the part of the data that shows that fct and kaduna like rivers get less than what they generate... Vat is imposed on several goods not just on alcohol.the fixation on alcohol is uncalled for.statistics shows that over 40% of the vat are collected at the ports.nothing much will change,it will lead to chaos and multiple taxation.firs is best equipped to collect VAT. Crs has not recovered from the loss of her oil wells to akwa ibom and state collecting VAT will further impoverish her. |

garfield1:So, if you believe that the previous Constitutions spelt out residual matters to be so similar to functions of the Local Government. Tell me the section and community reading of the Concurrent List that places functions of the Local Government on the laps of the State Governments better than Part II of the Second schedule reproduced below:- 9. A House of Assembly may, subject to such conditions as it may prescribe, make provisions for the collection of any tax, fee or rate or for the administration of the Law providing for such collection by a local government council. 10. Where a Law of a House of Assembly provides for the collection of tax, fee or rate or for the administration of such Law by a local government council in accordance with the provisions hereof it shall regulate the liability of persons to the tax, fee or rate in such manner as to ensure that such tax, fee or rate is not levied on the same person in respect of the same liability by more than one local government council. Nonetheless, I will not be tempted to debate on a Constitution that is non-existent; Anyone who is not satisfied with the 2016 judgement of the Supreme Court can ask for a review. The 'meat' is that the VAT Act does not exist for now, hence the National Assembly cannot claim superintendence of what it has no authority over. JSC eko statement does not specifies what residual items are,he is simply setting the records straight as to the powers of the nass..any judgment of the appeal or fhc is just temporary until the apex court rules...Temporarily, We agree on three things; 1. The TLA is illegal FOR NOW. 2. The VAT Act is illegal FOR NOW. 3. The VAT is neither in the Concurrent nor Exclusive lists. Your statement on alcohol is petty and in bad fate.alcohol and cigar constitute a tiny percentage of vat,such views arw left for ethnic jingoists to advance.you are bigger than that.What is ethnic about specifying that you don't want something yet benefit from same. Ethnic? I remember many years ago....after tobacco adverts.. NTA will attach "The Federal Ministry of Health warns that smokers are liable to die young." They get money from advertising yet teach about the health implications. That is double hypocrisy. There was public backlash over the years. Today, Tobacco advertising is banned from Nigeria domestic TV stations. I did not reference ethnicity in my assertion or is Adamawa State who have supported this VAT law located in the South East? Benue has backed same law, is it also located in the SS? I will take that as a Freudian slip from you. Finally,if you take a good look at several supreme court judgments,they always refer or cite laws beyond 1999 including edicts and decrees and even foreign laws that are relevant to those cases. The FHC and Appeal Court were misguided. The VAT and TLA are clearly in my own view not against the constitutionThe FHC in Lagos had nullified certain sections of the TLA.. The Judge who ruled on the Appeal is at the Supreme Court today. The TLA will not stand. I am doubly sure of that. |

fergie001: A history of the vat formerly called sales tax will show its non residuality.let us wait for the appellate courts.I will be here to gloat as usual.no need over flogging the obvious |

garfield1: Ebonyi state gov is a house niggar. Just like you and the supreme governor of Imo. House niggars everywhere. VAT is a consumption tax. Whatever is consumed in CRS should have the VAT paid to CRS. It's commonsense. CRS has Calabar port. This VAT matter will spur the state to get the FG to make it functional. Even the wharf and landing fees should go to CRS as the host state and not one useless FIRS. The oil wells in dispute can fall back to CRS anytime and then the VAT will be theirs to enjoy. Alchohol consumption is high in CRS. So the VAT therein should be enjoyed by the state don't you think. VAT can't lead to chaos. There;s a very simple way of calculating it and the states will sit up with it to strengthen our federation. Quit being a house niggar 1 Like 1 Share |

Agboriotejoye: Your utopian ideals are not practicable...the data of vat generated in crs is public knowledge, it is nothing to write home about.since crs generate less than what they get,if they start collection,they will earn less so no need.states that lose a particular source of revenue hardly recover from it so bury that thought of states increasing their revenue sources except imposition of strangulating taxes.... The calabar port as you know is under fg jurisdiction so the state cant get much from there except you want to argue that ports are not under the exclusive list... It took the firs Years to come up with a system of calculating vat so it is not simple as you erroneously think. |

Re: Rivers Government Drags FG To Supreme Court Over VAT by Agboriotejoye(m): 9:32pm On Sep 15, 2021 |
garfield1: The vat generated in CRS can be improved upon if the ports start working. Lagos state collects revenue from the ports as well which is dependent on the volume of goods. Secondly, a lot of goods consumed in CRS have their vat paid in Lagos so such will be retained in CRS if states are to collect by themselves. The system of vat collection might have taken years to evolve but with the experience gleaned from those years, the states can replicate easily. It took Lagos state to start LAWMA and LASTMA. Today almost all states have similar agencies with same functionality. Don't be a house niggar. |
