What you need to realize is that the fees are not generating revenue for the government. The government has been subsidizing for the provision of these services. The fee is actually meant to cover the actual cost of the service. For instance, the cost of issuing international passport is to be paid by the person needing the passport without the government subsidizing the cost. And it's only the person needing the passport that pays the fees. This is the norm in other civilized countries - USA, UK, Canada, etc.
How much is minimum wage in USA, UK,Canada etc?

If you want no service charge from banks who manage your money for you and make transactions very easy for you even when you are on your bed,don't keep your money with them again.
Go and withdraw your money and hide it inside your pillow or mattress.
Leave your greed and selfishness and grow a conscience. It is very clear you are running out of lies to spread.

That one is big fat lie, govt has never been subsidising any fees. Please just slow down with this nonsense abeg.

See even UK tax systems display accountability and as such the people enjoy govt services. Where is the accountability here? In the UK council tax is paid and you are updated on what it is being used for. Here try and demand accountability for a state where you pay taxes and you will be reminded that you are not from the state.

Late president M.Buhari was right when he said "Nigerians will prefer his government compared to that of Tinubu"

Not lest than 14 pages documents.

Everybody fill this Tinubulation.

Will blind supporters of APC have sense at all?

The government is all about money and politics at the expense of governance. You cannot see the dynamism of qualitative leadership across government.

Even those who can, one half, will be careful of outshining the king. But that is what you get when democracy is not at work.

The leadership has also created a scenario where no one serving in it's courts can be anything now or in the near future except by its wishes. So the other half don't bother to govern well. They will be back.
Re: Service Charge: How FG Squeezes Masses To Fund Bureaucracy, Inefficiency by Godfullsam(m): 3:06pm On Apr 10
Despite all these taxes and tariffs upon subsidy removal, this incompetent, corrupt, greedy and insensitive government is still borrowing money from foreign countries and further piling up our domestic and foreign debts.

A big big shame on APC and it's supporters.

Minimum wages was 30k not 35k as you said.

You wants the FG to bring back subsidy on FX and PMS??
It's better to bring it back to favour the masses than giving himself and governors in order to gain there support for re-election. This administration is really tormenting the masses

growing perception that governance in Nigeria is becoming exclusionary, and in some respects, this concern is valid. Matters are made worse when good governance
Pls its not everything people must nag about. Passports are produced with imported wafers. Is dollar today the same with dollar 2 years agohuh i know there is inefficiency in govt but there is no way the cost of everything goes up while govt services will be kept the same.

BAT and his party cannot deliver. Not now, not ever.

They are many things.

Inept. Profligate. Careless. Hypocritical. Callous. Untruthful. Unethical. And so on.

There's no way a leadership with a moral and ethical deficit this large - can ever lead a people aright.

You cannot give what you do not have. Why are people so surprised at this? undecided

Look here, in the UK where I'm at, no bank has ever deducted 1 pence from my account. Monzo, Halifax, etc.

What you call service charge in that hell-hole is a fraud. Ole ni gbogbo yin. Ole olloorun

When you keep your money in the bank, the bank then lends your money to those in need, and takes interest... You don't OWE them anything.
