Stop been hypocritical, you can, if he makes a decision & it doesn’t augur well, he has the prerogative to change it.

Things like yourself, no matter what President Tinubu does for good, or for bad, you will always have a reason in bad belle to form criticism .

Not as if anyone really cares about your humbug’s opinion.
This shows that they didn't think it through. Policies are not things one wakes up in the morning with towel around his waist and just puts up. That's what they are doing. Taxing expats changes nothing if they don't stand against the oppression of Nigerian staff in these companies. Especially Asian firms. The govt need to first look into the welfare of Nigerians there. When these Nigerians are paid we'll, they will pay tax to the govt. Many of these companies are not even in any pension scheme. They give the workers direct cash and not even through any bank. Reason I don't rate NLC, TUC and other stewpid agencies masquerading here and there. Govt know where to attack. They actually attacked the wrong place. Local content has been in existence.

Nigerians must rise up against these foreigners now before it's too late..

Local content, technology & skill transfer are very vital for FDIs entering into any country.. Some greedy Nigerians in top positions won't mind sabotaging national interest to keep their pay and inflow of fat income.

There is nothing special a white man needs to do that a Nigerian can't do with the right skills set and training. These foreigners don't want to train our people, reason they are shipping themselves into the country at alarming rate.

Nigerians must wake up and support the Minister of Interior on this expatriate levy.. else in the next 8 - 10 yrs, only foreigners will be in working class in Nigeria.
Why flood Nigeria with Chinese people when we have Engineers graduating from our tertiary institutions?. Ori mi o pe rara ni ilu yi.
Speak for yourself
Tinubu who employed the minister will not support him it is Nigerians that should support him.
I thought Tinubu is the man to take hard decisions and stand by it come what may.

This government is truly the Policy summersault expert angry angry
When this came up, I asked what was the reason the NCDMB has been monitoring the expatriate / Nigerian quota as well as the payments already in place; if there was anything to be done on this, it was just to fine-tune and ensure the leakages in the policy is blocked and revenue consolidated undecided undecided undecided undecided undecided

Good idea, bad delivery.

The government should have issued them a special working visa.

Then charge them for the Visa, Thats how its done all over the world.

They renew the visa every 2 years.



The government already charges a $2,000 annual residence permit fee for expats.
That this policy shuffled through from ideation to a fan-fare launch is proof that this administration is filled with dolts.

This continual back and forth movement on policies by the government is worrisome.

When you go cap in hand begging for fdi, you have lost the authority to dictate to them. You either dance to their tune or you forget about their Benjamin. It's as simple as that.

Expatriates is not your problem. Offer same level of skills, integrity, managerial capabilities and competence and no organisation will be looking for expatriates.

Expatriates are the problem..

They do not want to transfer knowledge and skills to Nigerians.

They want Nigerians to remain unskilled and be their cleaners, gatemen and drivers and not their engineers, computer programmers and managing directors.

What do you mean it doesn't augur well?

Some decisions are good when they were taken but events later spoilt things.

That does not equate with a hastily made decision that is clearly and obviously going to backfire on you.

That you cannot tell the difference btw the two shows you are inept yourself.

The poster you are attacking is correct.

If you are begging foreigners to come and invest in your country-why will you make it more expensive for them to set up than before?

The same govt that you worship has made a u turn but you are condemning someone for calling out the initial bad decision.

Are you a zmbiee?

I thought I was the only one wondering what this has got to do with Qatar trip?

Qatar is are not coming there to set up businesses and factories so they don't care whether you tax expatriates to death

The main reason why I dislike this administration is that they act without reasoning. Why don't you reason first before taking action? Why removing subsidy without providing cushioning tools. Now the economy is in shambles. Thank God you reverse this current decision you took, it would have been a terrible disaster.

Well, maybe you are talking because of your level of exposure.

At the top, there's a dearth of skillet. It is at the bottom people are dragging positions and competition is tough.

At the high level, there's vacancy but difficult to fill those roles due to lack of capable hands.

Even when there are capable Naija people, their level of integrity is usually below par. This is not to say in all cases but very common.

Anyone who says "their level of integrity is usually below par" has never held a top position in a company..

There's no dearth of skillet anywhere... Nigerians have enough skill set and qualifications to hold any top position..

Your own level of integrity is the one that's below par.
