But wait o, upon all the numerous and multi billion dollar industries in Anambra as claimed, why is the state always down in terms of VAT?

SyrusdeHansome:
See what your states contributed to the VAT pool and what they received in January 2025.
My South Southern states really tried sha.

https://x.com/thecableindex/status/1897301666023502249?t=4pFox37MiOvX01SFcAMsvw&s=19[/quote]Oyo is really trying since Makinde became governor and reinvigorated the state economy with employment of civil servants who are paid well and on time.

Unlike the ẹlẹjọ wẹwẹ́ constipated authority who failed to recruit workers and failed to pay those who were working already.

MasterJayJay:
Another fake stats.

Minjim:
Do your own independent research now . At least you'll believe your own findings

Oga the way VATs in Nigeria is computed is wrong.
VATs should be paid at the final point of consumption and not just at companies headquarters in lagos.

A considerable amount of VATs paid in lagos is generated by businesses conducted in the east.

Abia state number 35 out of 36 yet the state governor is not doing anything to improve the the state

THEGALADIMA:
It's not fake stat.
It's verifiable.
There's no way they can conjure numbers.
If they produce fantasy numbers, the beneficiaries ( States, Ministries, etc) will voice out. And that'll be very embarrassing.
So that's the stats of the money shared across board.

Smartcitizen:
Igbos are too smart for Nigeria, you want us to contribute again after sending your Police and Army to extort our people on the road?

If they are not happy with our contribution, let them go to hell and report it to the Devil.

We go dey collect back all una dey take from us with this style.



🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I think Lagos is under remitting the vat it collects
All these banks collecting vat on every transaction from your account are based in Lagos.

I know how much vat they remove from my account every month

Vat on commission
Vat on SMS
Vat on fixed charge
Vat on Account maintenance
Vat on card maintenance
Vat on transfer charges

Lagos will keep shining teeth as if the vat they are collecting are from people resident in Lagos. They use all these statistics to mock other states while in the real sense, people from these states are the ones contributing to their large statistics

Nigeria NEEDS reform.

MasterJayJay:
I don't think you get the true picture.

I said the stats are fake because they are wrongly classified.

Note that VAT is paid by final consumer.

Example: If I buy MTN recharge card in Abia, the VAT should be deducted under Abia. But that's not the case. What we have in Nigeria is deduction by headquarters, which is wrong. Someone buys recharge card in Aba and VAT is deducted under Lagos because the telecom has headquarters in Lagos


The only true data of VAT collection is the one that actually states the collection at point of sales.

owobokiri:
We want an independent assessment and verification of these numbers being bandied around by APCs Internet hirelings and agbadorian dingbats alike. Once they start parroting one propoganda line this way, be rest assured that the "talking point" was handed down to them by their tribal handlers at Abuja. It is starting to look as suspicious as the quantity of oil outputs they ascribe to South Eastern states. They will tell you the south-east produces no oil and contributes zilch to VAT, but once the same South east asks to be allowed to go, Abuja starts having a fit of fear laced with all sorts of public meltdowns. Let's have an independent assessment and verification.

VAT is collected and calculated where the good or services is consumed all over the civilised world. Nigeria is not yet civilised, that's why consumptions made in the north and south are calculated as Lagos paid VAT simply because the headquarters of the multinationals are in Lagos.

This madness of VAT paid by state has to stop until they start calculating it like other civilised countries. All the Dangote cement bought in the east is calculated as Lagos VAT because the head office is in Lagos.

Cash from crude oil and gas deposits in the Southsouth and Southeast sustains Nigeria, but the Agbadorians led by Bayo Onanuga want to tell Nigerians that tax from Lagos ports largely sustain Nigeria.

First of all no body is stopping you from going anywhere if azikwe had allowed secession to be included in the Constitution things would not be like this ,the problem you have have is bloated ego and a false sense of self Worth I served in the east abia state in particular and the level of poverty I saw was unbelievable ,with the way you consume fake drinks ,fake drugs and fake products how do you think your VAT will measure up to those that consume goods that are properly accounted for

DmonSlayer10:
And it didn't occur to you that those states with the Largest VAT pools...like Lagos....has Igbos and other non-ingigenes as the major factors for such a large VAT pool??

I'm sure you're not an illiterate

What concerns developers and this topic, check your signature and what you commented,you are just demented and schizophrenic,foolish idiotic animal

kedeojo:
You always reason like a fool. Ordinary tax your region can't generate. Feeding bottle republic. No wonder south east and north are not agreeing to tax reforms. I trust Tinubu and Lagos government cos they will soon increases tax in Lagos state if the tax reform bill continues to delay. Unproductive region.

bmaster2000:
How would Abia State develop? The State that is full of ritualists and cannibalism. ..Isi Alaguwa , Nkwa , in Abia State is still a dreaded and notorious place for cannibalism and skill mining till date. ...FYI

Developers crew who refuse to develop their region to be economically viable. ...no be juju be that?

mrvitalis:
So let Tinubu restructure the country then so each state can control their resources n collect their VAT......

Till then keep taxing your People and sharing the money for us

Soludo must be sick in the head sha... What exactly is he thinking Taxing Anambra people of 3.5 billion in a month!!! All for what?
