Zainab Ahmed, minister of finance, says owners of yachts and private jets will begin paying luxury items from 2019.

Addressing a press conference in Abuja on Monday, the minister said excise duties would be introduced in some areas while taxes would be reduced for small and medium enterprises.

“We are exploring the way to increase taxes as well as reduce taxes in some sectors. For Small and Medium Enterprises, what will happen is to reduce taxes. But there are some special taxes that we will be looking at imposing,” she said.

“For example, luxury taxes. If you have a private jet, we will be taxing you specially for that. If you have a yacht, we will be charging you for that and also in terms of excise duties, there are also some new areas where excise duties will be introduced.

“We haven’t got all the approvals but one of the major areas might be that of carbonated drinks produced in the country.”

According to Ahmed, the Whistleblower Unit has recovered over N8.5 billion and $465 million among others from the 1,051 investigations conducted from tips received.

“Based on verification outcome by the Presidential Initiative on Continuous Audit (PICA), we have also paid over 2,000 former workers of our defunct national carrier- Nigeria Airways Limited,” she said.

Patience Oniha, director general of the Debt Management Office; Mary Uduk, acting director general of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Babatunde Fowler, executive chairman of the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) were also present at the briefing to give an account of the activities of their agencies.

Northern Nigeria should quickly support the ongoing call for restructuring of our unitary federal structures.

Nigeria need true federalism, fiscal federalism and resource control. This is to encourage economic growth in the states and prevent a situation where Monkey dey work baboon dey chop.

Sharing Niger delta crude oil money to lazy and unproductive state is totally unacceptable and fraudulent.

Northern Nigeria must change their old belief that it is only southern Nigeria that must continue to bake the national cake being shared to lazy states.

Instead of planning for a massive agriculture revolution northern Nigeria is waiting for rise in crude oil price so that they can continue their oppressive policy against the crude oil producing state.

Northern states have refused to tap into the abundant opportunities offer in the solid mineral sectors. Moreso, northern political leaders have deceitfully encouraged their people to embark on illegal mining keeping the money for northern people.

Kano state want to share in vat money but they progam Hisbah corp to terrorise beer and alcoholic vendors.

If your religion forbid alcoholic drinks why stretch hand to collect federal vat allocation.

The luxury taxes is primarily targeted at the rich southerners who are known to display opulence or wealth as soon as they hit it big.

The north who are refusing to accept restructuring are looking for way to redistribute southern wealth to cover for the shortfall in crude oil price earnings.

If each states is allowed to introduced luxury taxes and the revenue go to the state that is accommodating the rich individual then that is okay.

But not an oppressive unrestructured federal government collecting luxury taxes.

If President Muhammadu Buhari is bold enough to introduce this anti restructuring policy that is directly aim at targeting our rich celebrity such as Femi Otedola, Adenuga, Davido, Tiwa Savage, Whizz Kid, Psquare, southerner nigeria people etc

Then state government like Lagos state, states in the niger delta region should take the federal government to court.

Who federal government help that they want to collect luxury taxes?

Some weeks back a federal minister by name Mr Fashola was telling the media that it was not the responsibility of the federal government to provide electricity that they have given the contracts to the discos.

Lies!

Why is a federal government that is not investing in the states want to collect luxury taxes?

Who federal government help?

Sense you know get ... Do you reckon he maintains a jet from an income of 20m annually?

To subsidize your ignorance, the jet is owned by his firm ... It is not registered as Atiku ABUBAKAR jet ... Therefore the so called luxury tax is even dead on arrival as many of the jets are operated by companies
