@EasyWork001 From your language it shows you cripple of an old man raised a mannerless nincom.poop. See? Besides I know you are so pained right now because I highlighted the fact that you have the intelligence of a toddler and I was damn right? Look at you talking incoherently and babbling like a man high on cheap gin. Now,crawl away and make no more noise or else I 'll whip you like the bad stray dog that you are. Am I understood? Mention me again n#t-wit. It is an order from me to you.

The Nigerian government has stated that no one would be left out in the campaign to enlarge the tax revenue.

She said some beggars were earning millions and that “proceeds from begging are taxable. You are supposed to pay taxes even if your means of income is begging”.

Minister of Finance, Mrs. Kemi Adeosun said this in Lagos at a lecture at PWC’s Business School, with the theme: ‘Voluntary Assets and Income Declaration Scheme (VAIDS) Interactive Session for Executives and Business Owners.’

She said to ascertain the income status of the companies/individuals and their lifestyle, investigators would rely on information derived from Bank Verification Number (BVN), records of property ownership, records of foreign exchange allocation, and records of company ownership from the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC), among others.

Adeosun said: “We are using some firms to trace assets internationally.The investigators’ findings will enable us to compare the income and how much tax the company/person is really paying, and that gives us lots of information.

“But we encourage people to come up and pay their taxes willingly. You can register a high-end car. It tells me something about your income.

“So, we look at your tax returns. If you registered Mercedes E-Class and you are paying N100,000 tax, then something is wrong. Those are red flags. We now have the capacity to assess people accurately.

“We are trying to build an economy where we have oil and other things. It is going to be oil plus and wider economy”.

If no one will be left out of the tax net, isn't it better that all the mortuaries in Nigeria are left opened along with the ones in the grave so that the government can tax all.

Captain1Nigeria:

Before you ever think of an inch relaxation of the mind, these most foolish apc members will bumbard you with another yeye meaningless proposal. Why has God allowed such beings in our mids us?

The brightest idea of our wonder kid. The honourable kindergarten minister of finance who seems to reason from outside the brain. Some of us never expected anything better from this dysfunctional dreamer and confused minister. It really seems the final descent has begun. Going,going....

I can't believe people find this funny.

In a sane society, it's the duty of the government to ensure that the most vulnerable group of the society gets the opportunity to lead normal lives - getting them jobs to earn their keep and live with dignity. However, our government not only sees nothing wrong with begging, they see it as an IGR opportunity.

We are shameless and weak. I'm disgusted!

Chai, nawa ooooo. APC government self

SmartMugu:
This is the funniest thing I've heard this year . FG must be the newest set of comedians in town Beggars paying taxes Abeg somebody help me stop laughing . Where dem find these kain yeye leaders from?

Nigeria is the only country in the world where the masses get sense pass the leaders. Shouldn't it be the other way around? E be like say their brain dey upside-down sometimes

Abeg which mumu for Aso rock abi na Senate come up with yeye idea abeg?

You know how many beggars dey Nigeria now? Roughly 37% direct beggars and 63% indirect beggars, total=100%. Over 38% of the entire population is either a direct or indirect beggar. Even the police, custom, immigration etc are glorified beggars. Some graduates with no job are now beggars. Many of our beautiful ladies that chose to become prostitutes are indirect beggars. Is there a database for all of them? How will their income be tracked and tax calculated?

Gentle warning to FG, If all of them start riot at once, Aso rock and Senate go feel am o . Make una just leave them for their corner jeje. Touch them not, na una create them.

abeg make i hold u so that i go fit laugh very well

MadCow1:


Yes Sir.. She said "Beggars are earning Millions". How many beggers do you know earn millions? Shouldnt that be a clue as to the fact that her message isnt literal? She is talking about tax evaders who try to hide their income under untaxable areas like "alms" or even "gifts".


So a Man who owns a house in Lekki and drives a Range Rover tells you he is a beggar (or the house and car are a gift) just to evade taxes.. She was speaking figuratively for Christ sakes. How many time would I need to repeat this to you before you understand it.

Okay, have you ever paid Personal Income Tax? If yes, was it paid directly by you or was it deducted at source by your employer and paid on your behalf? If it's the former, how did you go about it? Do you know how to calculate your taxable income? Do you know what incomes are not taxable?

Tax Issues are not just a matter of policy statements, it is a matter of LAW passed by Congress. You can't tax a person whose income isn't taxable under the Law wether "Policy statement" or not.

Anyways, I give up.. Believe what you will. Better yet heed my advise and go grab a copy of the Tax Laws of Nigeria and also speak to someone at your nearest local tax office to have a clearer understanding of how taxation works, those who are exempted from taxation and the different tax brackets for the different income levels. Then you would understand why she said what she did.

I believe her English was very very simple so all thus grammar is irrelevant.what she is trying 2do is prove that begging is a source if income. once she can do that, then she's within d law then policy thrives. anyway tnx 4 giving up

Lol. Fg can be so funny. Any if that will be a measure to solve beggars from begging, fine! After Nigeria needs money. Also ashawo also should be paying tax also

Divay22:

Lol... Suffering and smiling

Directly or indirectly we all are suffering, we all are feeling the heat emanating from the much talked about change this Apc government promised.

PMB and Osiokolomona are getting ready for next race. Sai baba with 6packs

It appears Nairaland has become the official forum where illiterates and heavily ignorant and unreasonable people come to speak thier mind.
You can imagine the analysis my Caucasian friend gave me about Nigerians just by browsing through Nairaland. I was so ashamed.
Seun should do something about this fast.
