The tax is to be paid by the school authorities from the children's school fees. It is a certain percentage of the school fees but Nigerians being who they are, the school authorities will charge the pupils/students separately for tax and you will come here to blame Fayose.

Don't the schools enjoy the basic amenities/infrastructural facilities provided by the Government?

If private hospitals, businesses, workers pay tax, what makes you think private schools should be exempted? Don't they make profit?

School is free only in public school and public schools don't pay tax.

You people are quick to condemn those you hate. Fayose will finish his tenure whether APC likes it or not.

When you pay N50 for every deposit stamp in bank do you complain?


You people should stop defending this nonsense. Private schools pay company income tax to FIRS and Personal income tax (PAYE) to the state board of internal revenue. Asking pupils to pay tax or asking the school to pay the tax from school fees collected is not only illegal but immoral and illogical. Government does not provide any structure for private schools, they have no reason to ask private school students to pay tax or development levy.

Mention just one other state in Nigeria where private school pupil are mandated to pay tax?

Can you be specific on the type of tax that a private school should pay?

Can you also mention any other state in Nigeria were students of private schools pay tax to the state government?

It is odd hearing students of private schools being asked to pay tax, l think private schools were asked to pay tax as a business entity then they shifted it to pupils given the impression that the State government is taxing those kids for attending a private school. The State government's side of the issue should also be heard to have a balanced view of the situation because a lot of falsehood circulates the social media.

I don't see what you're complaining about. Ofcourse schools should pay taxes. They're a profitable business and any school that doesn't pay tax should be closed.

Besides this school u posted pictures of here looks very substandard and is probably deserving of the seal

Did u read that write-up at all? shocked The students that can't even afford to attend a standard school are been asked to pay a thousand naira each as tax to the govt. Some of them don't even have food to eat yet. angry

State government doesn't have the power to collect corporate tax from a business entity. That's strictly a federal tax collected by FIRS. State can only collect personal income tax and development levy from the staffs of the school and from available information, the schools are complying with that.

Governor Fayose have been collecting Tax from all living things in Ekiti for some months now. I don't need to discuss about other tax which he is collecting. All I want to talk about here is the tax which his government has leveled schools.

Some private school students have failed to go to their various school to receive lecture for some weeks now.
This is because Fayose is now collecting tax from schools which students are made to pay the total some of #1,000 as tax for the government.

For any school that fails to collect this amount from student and pay to the government, the school will be sealed. The problem now is that, what of the school who cannot meet the tax leveled on them with the number of students they are having.

When Government are encouraging Northerners to go to school by giving them free meal, fayose is busy asking Ekiti students to pay tax for them to go to school...

Below is a picture of a school closed by Fayose.......
Op, your post if full of half-truths and misinformation. Governor Fayoose has not sealed any school because of tax. He has only sealed off schools whose proprietors failed to remit the newly introduced education levy of 500 Naira per primary school pupil and 1000 Naira for every secondary school student. The schools were not expected to pay on behalf of their pupils or students, rrather they are to collect and remit same to the coffers of the government. While many schools have collected these monies and in some cases they even collected twice the amount, some have refused to remit the collections to the government.

Secondly, it is untrue that some pupils or students have not gone to school for weeks as a result of the governor's action. The closure of schools just started a few days back. In any case, most of the schools have closed for the term.

You also made it look as if government fixws the amount to be paid arbitrarily hence your reference to some schools not being able to pay the amount levied on them. Nothing can be farther from the truth. Each school is expected to pay according to the number of pupils/students on roll. If a school fails to collect what is due to government from the pupils/students, then it only has itself to blame.

The only truth in your write-up is the last part which questions the rationale behind this levy. I agree with you that it is wrong for ANYBODY in this age and generation to levy Kindergaten, Nursery and Primary school pupils. It is heartless to ask a two-year old in KG 1 to pay to receive education. It is totally unfair and an outright violation of the right of these children to education.

Finally, let me add that one should not weep louder than the bereaved. Ekiti State people are enjoying the myriad of levies. The have not complained. Until they hit the street in mass protest, I for one believe they support the governor on this and other issues. I rest my case.

this schools are paying their annual taxes,the ministry of commerce gets their money each year,thats the plan,the recent one is a new development where students are to pay taxes,forgive ma ignorance but i thought taxes are meant for working adults and not kids who still feeds off their parents tables,their parents are paying taxes,their kids too is!!didnt think that law is in the constitution of the country!! Yes,the school the op displayed is substandard,the approval shouldnt have been given in the first place,but over the weekend i know of two schools that was closed down which are not only conducive but one of d biggest in the state,this issue has no other name than bullsh*t and victimization against the masses.......

So only source is for confirmation.. Call anyone from Ekiti. Even butchers are paying #1,000 per cow... If you don't have anyone in Ekiti, please keep quiet
So ekiti pays a tax of 1k while benue pays a tax of 50k but it's ekiti own that gives you orga.sms. Continue, the zombie demon is a very stubborn one to deliver.
cc Prophet TB Joshua.
By the way I'm yet to verify the ekiti story yet, my two friends (civil servants) denied knowledge of a 1k parallel tax. I guess you don't need to verify the benue story. Why don't you go ahead and provide me with a credible source I can contact in ekiti before you go gung-ho on Fayose

talking to some people is like talking to a wall,imagine what that fellow was ranting about,i bet its his own government that provides for the private sectors needs not the one we running in Nigeria,schools as a private body pays taxes each year to the government,which still sounds logical,now to compliment that students who after paying their fees would now pay an additional amount for tax! Dont know the best words to describe this barbaric acts,mind u this is levied to all students in the state,be it private or public,yes u heard right,public school students too pays!!!!!!!

The op was right in his write-up.It is true that minors now pay tax of #1000 in Ekiti State per term.Nobody is saying private schls should not pay taxslevied on them by the govt.But it is tantamount to double standard for the govt to collect taxs from both students and schl owners.The burden of it goes to parents who cannot provide decent meals for their wards due to economic situation in the country.What is happening in ekiti now is self-inflicted injury.I know from day one that fayose's second coming to ekiti is a revenge mission. I pity those civil servants who have not been paid since Novemher .Teachers are the worst hit.

Haha! This what I'm expecting from a nitwit agbero who came from Ibadan to Ekiti.

Before any dunderhead come and quote me I'm from Ekiti State. Moba Local Government to be precise. I stay in the State Capital and I know what's up bout Ek.

I wrote this article on my last post on NL when a page was moved to the front praising Fayose as the best Governor.

Lemme address this that Peter Ayodele Fayose is a Propaganda man. He has nothing to offer

June 2014 when the likes of JKF and MOB where talking bout Manifestoes that will turn Ekiti around.

My brother Fayose was busy putting Poster round Ekiti saying "Meet your Next Governor" he was shouting and barking like a dog threatening to expose JKF.

No manifestoes. No good campaign promises.

A shallow man with a shallow brain, He's only in Ekiti to come and take his own share as a Governor no good plans.

Now back to the tax he's collecting its true. he's collecting 1,000 from every pupils and students of private schools. Where is the money going to?

How many strides has Fayose laid? Is it light up Basiri? or the recent flag off of the Fly over at Fajuyi? or his useless stomach infrastructure?

Ekiti don't know what they are in for.

Just of recent a man working with Government House told me he won't pay full salary for State Workers and in turn state workers rejected it so he's telling them to wait for allocation.

I stand corrected the last time any worker in Ekiti is paid was last year November.

Not only tax from student alone he's also collecting from Butchers 1,000 per 1 cow wink

He's a devourer

He's a scam


I rejoice with Ekiti cause this what they want.

NEVER!! you cannot be from EKiti North (MOBA LGA) and talk this? HAAAAA EYAN!!!! chai!!! people can so mislead? haba! i weep for you dude. how can someone claim to come from Moba and say bad of Fayose. i say may God forgive your mouth. MOBA used to be the worst LGA in Ekiti until this Fayose came and reconstructed the roads leading to MOBA. ever since i was born till Fayose first term, no one can pass tru MOBA road and not take Paracetamol on getting to his/her destination. this man came, constructed this road from Ayetoro-Otun, Oye-Iye-Ilejemeje-Igogo-Otun......to mention but a few. Fayose constructed the dualiasation of Ado-Ekiti road. tell me what other past governors have done. if this man should collect tax from school, its not too much, moreso, the picture here is nothing to write about, so its ok to shut it before they put another thing into the children's head, a school should be conducive for reading. please stop feeding peeps with lies or are you the younger bros to LIAR Mohhamed??

I don't thinking that imposing tax on student is the main solution. There is a lot happening in Ekiti if you don't know. The government is not paying for secondary school student WAEC anymore. And the government have been paying this for at least 6-7years now.

Is he encouraging student to study or what?
Channel ur critic to smth dt will earn u income Ds one wouldn't pay, is d govt taxing students or schls? schls only shifted their burden on students, and instead of talking wit ur fake private schls, u come to nairaland to lodge complain, Ds will not solve it, let d schl owners knw their obligation to d govt and stop shifting their loads on d so called students. for now remain silent until u solve d problem wit ur. don't let me call for ur ban.....
