If the bills favours them would they complainhuh In many states/ provinces all over the world only a few states/provinces is usually viable by the way. This should be an avenue to sit up and generate more. Una go cry tire
To me it is a very good bill that's why senators are crying aggressively. Also useless people killing others to become governors will now understand that there's a lot to do for them to start sending their useless olosho to Europe on vacation

I don't know what is wrong with the north..seems they're afraid of not generating much under the new tax billing!

We welcome anything that will reduce tax and bring investors to Nigeria!
northerners have many sources of income, but na only them want to be living on it. Gold in Zamfara as case study...

I don't really get their point. Is it because people who earn below 1m annually will be exempted from income tax, which the states are in charge? I don't really know the North's problems with the tax bills.
Their major problem is with tax administration. The North prohibits lots of things which the South embraces with reckless abandon but the North gets biggest shares from those things they prohibited than the South that embraced those things.

So, that aspect of the bill will now favour the South that embraces those things against the north that partially prohibited them.

It's more like the south is taking poison on behalf of the North while the north feeds fat at the detriment of the south

Yeah, they will be doomed just like Ekpa and NMK.

They should have left the North out of it.
Then the parasitic North should acquiesce to a National referendum where all regions can be split into Independent Federating units. Enough of all this stupidity!

Re: Tax Reform Bills: Tinubu Under Fire In Northern Nigeria by phineas:
The allocation aspect of bill is good for northern Nigeria and the country,

It's simple they have to request every business sorts out their VAT collected and pay to them,they would need to have local offices in their states,that's more employment for their people.The north does not know that the biggest business earners in Nigeria actually have significant northern presence.

But they have no or few moribound physical offices in the north. This will bring jobs for northerners....

I'm summary the northern masses are fighting the wrong battle, back this up and watch your governors drag those businesses and their management back to the north.

Mr Ibrahim also alleged that Lagos stands to benefit more from the tax reform bills. “He is not fair and just to other Nigerian states who voted for him, especially the north, and we are still aware that Lagos was won by the Labour Party, not APC. Despite this, the president is giving them preferential treatment”, the cleric said.

“We are calling on you to fear God and suspend the tax reform bills as suggested by the National Economic Council”, he added.

“We must salute our Senator Ali Ndume for his firm opposition to the tax reform bill. We are also calling on other lawmakers supporting it to refrain from it because they are not representing the will of their people.

The president have already taken his stand on the tax reform and the bill have scaled at the up chamber as we speak. So there's almost nothing anyone can do about it

Even in USA, there are states that are less viable like North Carolina, in Nigeria you'd say North.

It is everywhere in every country of the world. It's a norm. It doesn't mean the states should be scrapped either. They should just be more very prudent and minimalistic in spending.

They know the failure T-pain is not to be trusted. He has proven overtime to be a clueless hasty decision maker and a total failure and disaster as far as governance is concerned. He is making an almost irreparable mess.

Just imagine the level of rot He has plundered the Country into in a very short period of time.

The press aren't doing enough reporting on this tax issue and that's why some people are taking advantage of it and make it look anti common man.

By now, it would've been ripped apart for all to understand properly.
But all am seeing is same reporting without detailing what the reform bills actually entails.

We need to do more.
But it shall be well.

I hope he gets removed from office
The selfishness is glaring

To think anyone could be more incompetent than Buhari and terribly corrupt
What "selfishness"? PBAT wishes to remodel Nigeria to be more efficient with States and region being more self-sufficient.

Use what you have to get what you want and stop leeching on others who have to share the fruits of their labour and productivity with you. How can any decent, progressive and fair-minded person be against that approach that, 100%, is the only salvation of Nigeria?
