Why not tell him to pay his taxes?

Why not concentrate on the issue at hand?

Why not stop all these hasty allegations?
APC should start by arresting the ones in their camp.

Dino "Ferrari" Melaye loves his social media bragging rights so much that he forgot the tax man is watching all that boasting.

Anyway a man who has looted so much money will have no problem at all coming up with $120K USD to setting this small irritant tax bill.

We look forward to the next social media song that Dino Ferrari will drop once he has paid off this minor bill to the tax man.
Exactly. They should just go and collect all his Lambhorgini and Rolls Royce that he posts on IG....

Very easy case for the prosecution. grin

Am I seeing this clearly. N274 Million as tax for a year and N234million the year before.. I will see this as computer error, that means he must be making more than 2 billion yearly for his taxes to be this high..
That's BOJ best of Judgement. Just an estimated amount based on available facts ( bank statement report)

I know Dino personally to a great extent so I understand what he is facing at the moment
As a sitting Senator in 2019, he reportedly declared his TOTAL ANNUAL INCOME as N1,258,334 (N1.2m) and allegedly paid N85,000 as Personal Income Tax.

What do you have to say about this?

It has long been known that Nigerian senators earn the equivalent of $250K USD annually, as base pay to which must be added vehicle allowance, housing allowance, travel allowance, overfeeding allowance, yanga allowance, television watching allowance, poon rental allowance, speech delivery and pontificating allowance, overseas junketing allowance, and so forth, thereby ensuring that each of those dozens of senators earns far more than the President of the USA, in US dollar terms.

When I get out of jail for aggravated bank robbery, disorderly conduct, public drunkenness, arson, reckless driving, misuse of explosives, and grand theft golf-cart, among other rites of passage too illustrious to mention, I nurse a dream of becoming a Nigerian senator with all rights and treasury privileges implied.

See how all these guys steal from the system.
In 2019 he paid only 85k tax, meaning he was claiming that he only had an income of about 1.2 million in the whole of 2019.

He is claiming to have been earning less than 100k per month. All these foks cannot stay in Europe with this kind of not paying tax mindset, they will spend most of their life in prison,

These folks are really thieves; no wonder they are ganging up against Tinubu
So ur tinibu that captured lagos since 1999 is not also part of the thieves?
Re: Dino Melaye Faces Criminal Prosecution For Tax Evasion by 9jatriot(m): 4:45pm On Aug 28, 2025
Let me help you rephrase:

"So your Tinubu who has help ensure that Lagos makes progess since 1999 seems to be doing the same thing in the wdier Nigerian space"

Why would a totally nice person like you want to go down the absolutely heinous path of being a Nigerian senator?

The few people who you might have physically and mentally hurt, going by the list of charges you have been fond guilty of, will pale into comparison when you become a Nigerian senator.

Bikonu don't do it.

Haha you have a point there for sure. It takes a truly heinous, devious and diabolical character to become a Ferrari-driving Nigerian senator.

So, on deeper reflection, I agree that the snake-pit of the Nigerian senate is not the place for upstanding citizens like yours truly. I might just have to fall back on Plan B and become a jet-setting miracle pastor living large off those tithes kindly donated by my obedient flock.

When Our Lady of the Comely Wenches Divine Ministry commences tax-free tithe gathering operations worldwide very soon, the highly regarded Chartered Accountant Aswani is hereby declared eligible to assume duties as Executive Administrator of The Tax-Free Treasury.

Among our church's august congregation will be a star-studded roster of showbiz glitterati, Nigerian senators, retired generals, serving narco-entrepreneurs, and repentant Boko Haram terrorists, all of whom are not only flush with raw cash from their lucrative occupations, but also happen to be generous givers when the collection basket reaches them while the choir sings up a storm.

Sir, you no need legal adviser for the highly lucrative business opportunity?
Please consider me.

I will make sure that every deceitfully gained money from the sheeple WILL NOT BE TAXED and will GO DIRECTLY to your pocket as General Overseer, wherein I only ask a humble ten percent for my robust services.

I further promise to INTIMIDATE anyone who contests our noble mission both spiritually and physically (and particularly through nighmares - in which I will unveil my true form as a snake and wizard of the first order).

Consider me sir, for this position and I ASHUA you that within a couple of years we will be billionaires in dollars.

I am already working on your Private Jet Sir.

Praise the Lord. With this new church whose entire income stream will fly under the radar of the taxman, it is gratifying to know that Barrister Deep Sight is now available to be tenured by our House of the Lord so that he can fend off all lawsuits that might be launched by enemies of frogress who try to break the stride of Men of Dog and Dog-fearing men like yours truly who can ONLY ever pay taxes to Papa God, as the mood dictates.

Meanwhile I would like to place my humble bid on Oga Dino Ferrari's Rolls Royce, in the amount of one million Russian rubles to be paid by installment over 25 years. This car auction is essential so that Dino Ferrari can once again restore his dignity with Nigeria's tax authorities.
