How about you focus on the message?

Did you read this part "KPMG has pinpointed 31 critical problem areas, from drafting errors to glaring policy contradictions and administrative gaps"?

You supporters of Tinubu must learn that "Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president or any other public official".
pls lecture us on what patriotism means...u hypocrite if its obi that initiates d tax law ur likes will hail him u will even bully any opposition. Like I asked pls lecture us on patriotism and not always embarrassing attacking insulting the govt

Hear Mr preacher talking about patriotism.
How much patriotism has Mt Gbajue fraudster and his obidients syndicate practices since they lost the election ?
They have not relented in demarketing Nigeria both here and in the diaspora meaninglessly and unjustifiably since 2023.
This garrulous nuisance should give his larynx some rest so that we can pretend he doesn't exist. He pollutes the public space too much.

COMRADES, analysts and experts have been advocating for the suspension of this saga but I don't know why Tinubu doesn't want to listen to anybody
Because he knows better than the Wailers who are just making a mountain out of a molehill.

This government is funny. People can hardly feed right now and all the government can think about is to tax the citizens adding fuel to the fire.
Inability to feed well is probably peculiar to you and your co-travellers because foodstuff prices have come down and people are doing better.
The crowd of festive shoppers during Christmas season was unprecedented.

Make Pitobi go sii down somewhere jo. This was the same Pitobi that taxed heaven and earth out of his people when he was the Governor of Anambra. Poor ibo market woman went to protest in front of his Governors office.

The unfortunate thing is that Pitobi sent Police Men to pursue this protesti peasant away with Tear Gas. His administration which was notorious for corruption and maladministration, also couldn't account for the money they took from the people
This Gbajue clown ba ?
He was the only governor in Nigeria caught with 200millon naira in his car claiming he was going to pay a contractor
A governor going to pay a contractor with cash like an errand boy.
The same clown that asked Willie Obiano to dash him 7.5billion naira for allegedly helpings him to win elections.

Everything new initiatives must have critics but where were the KPMG when public hearing and symposium were organised. Anyways it's been passed a law and assigned.The only solution is ammendments from the legislative

It's difficult focusing on the message when the messenger is a failure who pretends to know better.
Is it only Peter Obi saying it, is it really difficult abi 30k dey pay you to defend nunsense online as made you lost cells

What is Peter obi saying that other Nigerians are not saying on this tax punishment..

The last 2yrs as shown Tinubu is over reacted infact he is disgrace to education ... nothing comes out of his office that does not somersault

The loser will play politics with everything. And as a desperado, chronic tax dodger and law breaker, he would not want anything to work
i guess KpMG and other Nigerians criticising a Tax law that look so much like extortion are also playing politics

if Tinubu can play politics with lives of people ... anyone can play politics tew no crime

Whoever is a fan of this agulu man needs to think twice.

He jumps from hearsay and then rushed to the social media to disgrace himself.

KPMG has admitted that they misunderstood some sections of the Acts and have since sought clarifications and this has been settled.

But the agulu man..... I am not surprised 🙀

You want to suspend a law that has been passed just by mere pushing out your opinionhuh

Who ¢∆rsed us with this agulu man. huh

Tinubu till 2031.
And who is a fan of Agbero Tinubu should be weary of defending nunsense all in the name of on your mandate

You are terrible lier, which kpmg accepted they misunderstood, can you imagine Tinubu supporters are cursed walahi

where did KPGM say they made mistake, and why did Taieo Oyedele reply it was intentional errors

what does that even .. cant people work for Tinubu and have there brain intact

Mr Man for your information there is no where in the world were tax laws are perfect, even in The USA, & that is why there are tax dodgers, & there are also strict penalties that if u choose to be stubborn & ignore voluntarily or involuntarily disobeying the law out of disagreement for the law, u should pay a hefty fine or go to prison, or both hefty time & prison.

The hefty fine, or prison sentence is what u Nigerians like Gringory Obi are against, not the law itself.
Oga, I am agasint paying tax and still be providing my self with water, no emergency services, no good roads, still use private hosptials because even your politicians dont use public healthcare, they know they are terrible state. I still need to use private schools. I am against paying tax while politicians loot as lords and will never go to jail. I am against paying tax and still be buying fuel for generator. U hear?
who will buy me generator fuel when Tinubu reduces my purchasing power because of tax? All past governos and ministors in Buhari who loot our public revenue, what has happened to them?
I will glaldy pay tax if the govt uses it to provide amenities that i wont need to spend on those amenities anymore. Go and read this article: https://www.nairaland.com/8597545/rethinking-taxation-resource-management-nigeria
U want me to keep paying money to politicians who import babes from north america and enjoy lavishly? is ur head paining u?

The company I work with is In Lagos, and I am based in Delta. I read somewhere that to avoid future issues with government accreditation with my personal assets or documentation, it's best the company files my tax in Delta state here. When I brought it up, Company rep is saying it doesn't really matter, that at worse I can file personal or individual tax...Wouldn't that be double expenses on me? Company says it doesn't cost anything to have a personal or individual tax.

Nairalanders, this whole tax thing confuses me. From the above explanations, are my fears valid?
