₦airaland Forum

MadPolitician:
There are suggestions that some embedded clauses in the bill somehow forces big companies, especially multi nationals to pay more of their taxes where their headquarters are located.

Ndume and the northerners cried out against this, but tinubu and his gang are trying hard to force down the bill. Remember that the banks and the oil companies and the insurance and telecommunication companies are all headquartered in Lagos. So the tax bill looks like a very crafty South West APC gimmick, to divert more taxe accruals to their region.

Something akin to what buhari did with the petroleum bill where more "derivation payments" were to be paid to the states that host the pipelines. This was done in view of the cross Saharan gas pipelines that will take most of the Eastern gas to North Africa and Europe. And most of the states to host the pipelines are of course northern states.

PulaPower:
This Ebonyi governor no dey smile at all..

Dude is always on para mood..

Chegesnd:
If you want to discuss the event, forget the pictures because the one that showed the governors is an old picture, it has nothing to do with the Ekwunife pix.
Again, from the organiser (Sen.Ekwunife) to the panelists and discussants you can see that it is not all inclusive. It's like an Anambra affair, that showed how disaligned our guvnors are.

immortalcrown:
So, she changed cloth and hair and removed her hair tie to take the picture? So, she had a different outfit during the event and had another outfit for pictures after the event? And none of those governors could appear in the first photo?

ObosiLandlord:
Alright, thank you

On your second point, I think southern states will also benefit from hosting pipelines.

MadPolitician:
Coming from a desert iguana who supports a certified drug lord as the president of the country, that surely is very rich..

simpleseyi:
This is commendable , Yorubas are complaining about some of our prodigal daughters selling their bodies abroad, but your people don’t, instead, your families contribute money to send your daughters abroad to prostitute and send money home. Your families contribute money to send your boys abroad to traffic drugs that is why several of them are in prisons all over the world for drugs trafficking and illegal prostitution.

You and who is doing "Southern States"? Don't get me started..
We talking about South East Gas behemoths like Imo, Anambra and Abia, and you want to wriggle in with Okitipupa, Ogbomosho and Oshogbo? What is wrong with you? Is there anything like Southern States anymore?
Southern States that were killed and buried by the South West APC and Tinubus nepotism?

Alliswell248:
Certified by who....and when?

Wrong use of the word...certified.
Work on your English please.

Can you prove this in a court of law?

Hatred has made some of you guys to talk anyone, and when you are use as a scapegoat...you start pleading.

xrucifix05:
Just imagine a bill the whole northern governors rejected. This one came with her consultants to impose it upon the people of southeast, in this hard economy and perilous time. If citizens don't face these callous politician with reciprocal and radical action, they will never learn.

simpleseyi:
Since the First Republic, we have been teaching you politics, but you never learn because it is only drugs trafficking and fake drugs manufacturing that you can learn and master.

NADECO’s sacrifice in those years is being rewarded with Tinubu’s presidency. You sow and you reap

MadPolitician:
This gbazaaquiine should go and rest. Don't be surprised she is being used by forces outside the region to force down a tax bill that might be anti east. The presence of this kind of upstarts at the top level of igbo politics is the main reason why it is hard to find a dependable character that can project, campaign and defend the Igbo interest in the national level

simpleseyi:
If you like, let all you people in the National Assembly go on and oppose it, we will still pass it even if it is only one person that supports it, I am sure you know that.

You have been advised to form a formidable team of economic experts, not market men and women, so that you can analyse the Tax Bill and propose modifications that will make your region to get more from the Reforms. If you like, no do that, instead, continue your Nzobu Nzobu, we will teach you politics again and share all the money with our Northern frienemies, and you will be able to do nothing

Ebubu8:
South East Governors Forum headed by a former Senator who lost re-election that is not a legitimate exercise.


Moreover, all I see are Anambra names and private business owners in Anambra and they had the temerity to call it South East Governors Forum.

Ebonyi state was not even Represented.

If I be Gov. Nwifuru I go throw their recommendations into dust bin.

It might still backfire on tinibu and his sw later no guarantee those companies headquartered in lagos might not relocate elsewhere later.

Fiscus105:
South East most disunited among the regions called Nigeria. Yet they are dreaming to be in Ask Rock. They also dreaming to have Biafra.
It would definitely remain DREAM till thy kingdom come!

simpleseyi:
Take your drugs, because the psychiatric hospitals are full

Chukwumagordian:
This your mindset is the reason other tribes don't take us serious...

By the way, how do you know that there's no one from Ebonyi State there?

Is the presence of the Governor not enough representation?
