So, the tale about lower taxes as the reason to enjoy Nigeria compared to the abroad is null and void.

On Electronic transfers

Stamp duty of is borne by the receiver of such transfers from 10k and above

Transfer fees is borne by the sender by virtue of the banded NIP charges between 10.75 and 53.75 depending on the amount

Now, cybersecurity charge of 0.5% (No cap indicated so far. Meaning if u transfer 1m, 5k Cybersecurity charge Wil be due to you) to be borne(by sender since it is at the point of origination) on electronic transfers?

Wawu

That is not true. Organise an election today and Tinubu would win fair and square. You need to understand Nigeria for what it is, rather than what you think it should be.

0.5% is too high. This is a tax pure and simple.

The amount should be reduced to 0.1% at most.

Today, we are increasing interest rate to encourage savings, tomorrow we are imposing deductions and all kinds of levies that are indicators of inflation. It baffles me how we take one step forward and 5 steps backward.

This is in bad taste and not thoroughly thought-out.
You can't be encouraging cashless transactions and at the same time increasing levies on electronic transactions.
Do these people even know what they're doing?

Burdening the people with your aggressive revenue policies is strangling the very life off the common man.
Making more money available to the government to languish on their luxurious living.
All the taxes hasn't translated into better life for Nigerians.

I understand that the government is desperate to raise IGR.

However, why using underhand and bogus names to fleece the already suffering and dying citizens?!!

A times I wonder how can a man be so hard hearted. There is no iota of empathy in him. Despite the hardship & sufferings Nigerians are going through, this man still have the mind to continue heaping taxes on Nigerians. This was the reason they started attacking digital banks recently, because these kind of illegal charges are easier with commercial banks.
The problem is Tinubu thinks he handle Nigeria like he did lagos,

He wants to focus his efforts on IGR,Nigeria problems won't be solved that way not in this difficult times,times are too hard.

He wants to leave a legacy of how much he met and how much he saved,

It would get a point Nigerians would be pushed to the wall.

Yorubas use IGR to measure economic development. This is the after effect.

If fairness existed in Nigerian politics, as well as honesty, Atiku and Tinubu would never have won their party primaries.

If you understood that basic fact, you wouldn't have made that laughable statement above. grin

You keep burdening people who are already over taxed, underpaid, underfed and barely surviving undecided
very insensitive, particularly at a time when banks are declaring record profits and people are being squeezed with high inflation....GTB declared ₦609.3billion, Access N619.32bn. FBN almost N400 billion. If funds are required for cybersecurity, the banks definitely can make some room to cover these costs
