That must be one of the lowest % in Africa.. Yet Nigerians are not willing to pay
VAT is not an opt-in opt-out Tax, it's collected at source, wether you want to pay or not.

Illiterate. Not willing to pay what? As if vat payment is a voluntary payment. It is automatically charged when you buy vatable goods/services.

People will usually talk when there are increase in tax especially the ones you can't or can decide to pay. Even Americans complain of tax.

They still do not have a choice in the matter or any matter at that. You won't stop buying soda or beer or even meat pie just because VAT.

First Bank of Nigeria commence charging customers for electronic money transfer, this is aside from the normal charges when you effect an interbank transfer. I hope this is not fraud from FBN.
You are probably just waking up in 2021 after decades in comatose.

Electronic money transfer is the new term for Stamp duty. It goes to the Federal government directly.

This government is burdening us with so much charges, taxes etc with little to show.

Stop commenting on national issues please. Your ignorance is disgusting. IGR is different from VAT. What concerns mineral deposit on each state with VAT. VAT is paid by the final consumer of a product or services by incidence hitherto on each stage value is added on the chain of production of that goods and services before the final consumer.

I still ask you this question again, what do you think Wike is doing in Rivers State that enhance his huge VAT that Tambuwal in Sokoto for example cannot do to enhance his?

Every part of this country has her comparative advantages. The north abhor alcoholic beverages but still produced the grain used in the production of the beverages.

Despite the ban, the volume of beer consumed in sabongari alone in Kano state is higher than what is consumed in some Southern states.

Kiss the truth.

In all honest, for there to be a justice as fairness in terms of vat collection, allowing the state collect vat from the people directly is far better.
Imagine destroying beer and at the same time taking a vat on the destroyed goods.
It doesn't follow undecided angry

Who produced the grain used in production of the beer? North. Does agricultural produce from the north has VAT? No.

One litre of milk today is still costlier than one litre of petrol. Even 4 litter pack of onion is higher in cost than same litre of petrol.

The north has her advantage please. No country in the world has her mineral deposit evenly distributed across that nation.

VAT is 20% in most of Europe and developed worlds. But the people make sure it’s used to develop the country, not to collect and share among themselves.

Lovely interview. Prof Sagay made his points clearly known. Though I still want to know how much alcohol contribute to VAT and which commodity and service is the highest contributing factor to VAT.

You think you are smart. How much did Zamfara remit to the federation purse from its gold mining activities?
The Zamfara formula of revenue remittance will soon be used to share resources in other places.
You guys are in problem, you just don know yet.

These altercations and polemics over VAT is but a tip of the iceberg.



The ultimate goal should be a total restructuring of the entire Nigerian architecture if Nigeria must make any significant progress as a nation.



The benefits in the long run would be enormous!



I believe every state has the wherewithal to develop if the abundant human and natural resources that abound in each of them are tapped into and adequately utilized by them.



The central government as it is today strangulates initiatives and development of the states and an anomaly to the concept of true federalism.
