It isn't just Bauchi state...it would soon be every other state.

At the end, prices for airtime, beer, and so on would go up, as each and every state collects VAT on each and every product.

Then we would all be begging the FIRS to come and be the only sole collector of VAT.

p.s I don't mind each and every state collecting VAT...but the thing is, it is going to mean higher prices for everyone...and most Nigerians don't like higher prices.
Imagine all states collecting VAT on things like airtime, food, snacks, electricity, etc etc....the companies they collect VAT from would pass on the cost to the end CONSUMER. And we all won't be able to do nowt about it.
Plus that VAT rivers and lagos are collecting..is for their states...it isn't going to most other Southern states.

P.S 2: Most states aren't rich. And as their costs go up...so does their VAT. And that means...higher prices for everyone. Not just in Bauchi...Lagos and Rivers. Oil money is not enough for all of us.


PS3. TO anyone quoting this comment

1.I am a Southerner

2. I think that each and every state collecting VAT is a good idea. Because u;ltimately most states have poor tax to gdp ratios and they all have to go up

3.But I also know that it would lead to higher prices in the long term. And I know most of you cannot afford the high prices if states..not just the North..but all the Southern states, have to collect VAT.

So if you are quoting me to tell me off for supporting the North...sorry, wrong person.

Don’t make me laugh.

If u want to know who contributes more to Nigeria it’s visible to see, when north stopped foodstuffs from coming down south for just few days inflation went up, it could be felt all over the south, but east have been doing back to back seat at home, no single sector of the Nigerian economy had been affected, what does that tell u?

When we reach the river, we will cross it.
For starters, let all states collect and keep their VAT!

Like now, all of we Southerners backing Lagos and Rivers....when they win, they won't share their VAT money with the rest of us.

So what happens? All southern states raise VAT...and that means higher prices for everything.

Keep in mind this is not a North vs South thing as the media and some politicians are playing it.

Yes, it is not fair that the North benefits from VAT paid on things like beer....but if each and every state was left to collect VAT, prices will go up.

Beware of unintended consequences.

"We based our assumptions on the oil production benchmark at 1.9 billion barrels per day. We also assumed that the crude oil price would remain at 57 dollars per barrel."
~ Governor of Bauchi State


Bunch of parasites! All the money they have been looting since 1954, still they can't develop their region. Kudos to Wike!

South South region, South East region and South West should all unite, they all have same enemy, North!

And who told you Biafra is like Lesotho? You're funny. Without Igbos, Nigeria is nothing and the government and all Nigerians know that. When Igbos are finally gone Nigeria is like any other African country, little or no development or outshining as it's presently doing in some quarters.

All of our good heads from around the world would come back to make improvements, and you'll begin to see the morning sun that's actually on the Biafrian flag, which is symbolic.

Then I trust Igbo people, we would build one large wall with barb wires for your type, because where you see development you tend to tirade and come like a wave. So to prevent a masss inequality, we would have to make a wall and fend for the Biafrans on the land. That's the deal. So keep wishing that Igbos would beg you for anything.

Isn't it Yoruba, Ijaws, and some south-south states that beg the federal government for their arrears or for development, or when the government doesn't attend to them they begin to cry-- it's shows you the force and courage of the Igbo people.

But since when Buhari has been acting like this, have you seen any Igbo man coming to beg him for support, except the governments from Igbo land who work for him, so he can continue to pay them.

The food we pay for . Is it given freely? They should please stop it and let us see who will suffer. They are producing food yet they are still the one begging for food here.

I get your point. If it means prices will rise, so be it.
Let Lagos keep its VAT, it needs it to develop the state. Same applies to rivers etc. If the prices for goods and services will go up in states with reduced vat income, good for them, it will be left to the residents of the state to protest to their governors to disregard or reduce vat charges.
You cannot make your state unfriendly for business and then rip from those that are doing well. You can not destroy alcohol and expect to collect VAT from states that produce and consume alcohol etc.
States in the SE, SS and SW are not complaining. They will innovate and be imaginative simply because we down south don't have a culture of being leaches or beggers.
I doubt the Same can be said for the north.

Not denying the fact that North produces more food than the rest of the country. You should know the inflation/high cost of food is here already,with crisis up north denying farmers opportunity to cultivate. How have we been able to manage the high cost? This is a question you should ponder.
Are you aware that Nigerians in diaspora yearly contributes couple of millions dollars short of Nigeria's yearly budget,this is stats from world Bank,Google it. How many of the contributors are from the north? Let customs,firs etc declare their last quarter or end of the year earnings then you will know economy is affected

So Bauchi state is making projections on how to spend the money generated in Rivers and Lagos states?

What if Lagos and Rivers also decide to wait on Bauchi before they make their own budget projections?

When Southerners call Northerner's leeches and parasites, you see them foaming in the mouth.

Let everyone answer their father's name, look inwards, and develop your state because what you are doing is Covetousness.
