They should decrease the salary of our useless leaders and use the deficit to maintain the minimum wage.

i tut so....they will not let go of their crazy salaries and allowances....

greedy morafvckers....

FlintGuevara:


Some fine propositions by you, but most of the proposals herein are utopian and impracticable. I will respond to just paragraph a of proposal number 3.
First, you can't privatise all gov't parastatals. Let's take the Corporate Affairs Commission for example, who steps in to fill the vacuum created by a privatisation of the CAC? A private firm? How then do we balance the conflict of interest that's bound to arise in the event that your proposed privatisation is carried out? Again, who carries out the duties of parastatals like NERC, NAFDAC and other sector based regulators? How do you tackle the risk of conflict of interest associated with leaving such agencies at the hands of private corporate entities? A cursory look at my submissions would show that your argument on privatisation caves in upon itself at the slightest critical assessment.
Oh... on a lighter note and for the sake of a little banter, shey na your Baba be President and your party dey majority for legislature, make you reach out to them see whether them go try implement your point on emoluments.

Don't mind that one...i can bet a million he cant prove his proposition with facts and figures

Blah blah ...tell me which serious country has VAT of 5‰ thats a joke ...it should be 15% minimum

Those rogues in government should reduce the jumbo. salary which they unjustly earn for doing almost next to nothing and boom we will have more than enough extra cash to pay the workers without any additional burden to the poor masses. Rubbish people.

post=76805455:

You have a good point here also bro.
When we say 'all' we meant most of the parastatals, not all as in 100%.
And the rest are very practicable, if we get the 'will' as a nation to do that.
Concerning our Baba, we will be going to see him at Aso Rock prior the swearing-in ceremony in a couple of months from now, on special request.
So we will definitely hint Daddy then,
May God keep us all alive till then.
Cheers!

Oga u lack understanding of how a government is run bro

The first question u need to ask is what is Nigerian average revenue per month ...as it stands now what is the wage bill , debt servicing bill, then what is left

you cant practice real democracy with greedy people....

this greedy morafvckers will find a way to put the increase on the poor people....today na vat,tommorow its something else....

too greedy to even be voted into goverment....

GOD BLESS NIGERIA

You're proposal's dont mean anything. You been posting this same thing but never mention hard numbers. No math was done and no mention avout how much any of these programs and staff actually cost. Its like any Facebook political meme

1.
I do agree security vote is corrupt and should be abolished. It should be channeled toward paying wages but security agencies. Unless you plan to forget about security threats all ovet the nation this isnt an option. FG spends N241on security vote wouldn't be enough for 45k minimum wage. The FG need 300b for 30k minimum wage according to vanguard.

2. I agree constituency projects are stupid. Thats work for Local government to handle. You still fail to mention how much is buget each year. The rest sound good but wont happen. Even Buhari wont stop going overseas for check up. The rest dont have clear numbers so to tell me how much any of this cost nigeria.

3.
If you had slim public sector with robust private sector Nigeria wouldnt be talking about this. Lol the FG abd states arent slimming down public workers.

Will you Buhari reduce his own security vote

Precious4real:
Na Wa ooo!! This is robbing Peter to pay Paul! ☹️☹️☹️

That’s what they have reduced our dear country too .. ☹️

Optional09:
No idea dummy’s they want to increase VAT who is going to suffer the brunt

Sowore never said he will increase tax he said he will block the leackages and make sure that we collect taxes from tax invaders.

What happened to free education at all level, now that’s it’s obvious you’re trying to do what Sowore said he will do. Do it right let’s nigerians enjoy good life

Even if they steal sowore idea, they can't execute it, they are so dumb and clueless... #TeamSowore

AZeD1:
I am not surprised. A lot of reasonable people said the new minimum wage is unrealistic but Nigerians being emotional rather than logical would not listen.

If VAT is increased, the workers would be poorer than they currently are even though they earn more.

To increase the standard of living , we need to reduce costs(cost of food, housing, et al) which would increase the purchasing power of
the common man without increasing the wage bill and we need to be more productive. Anything outside this two is going in circles.

I said it too ooo now the 30,000 naira will be valueless inflation go kill Labour foolish and gready Nigerians Labour instead of them to fight for fuel price reduction they are devaluing the naira Nigeria is full of foools useless countries market people are worming up Nigeria Af scattered after the VAT is increased bag of rice is=30,000 transportation fare jump up food the 30,000 became useless naira valuless cfa will be stronger than naira

Tomide007:

Of course not all trade.....there is a way we'll go Arnd this.... Coporate account only when necessary.....company to company will be kept coporate...i do business to business and business to individuals.....hope am not talking to a firs official

Lol. I'm also a business man as well and so i also know these things. For even corporate account, the fact remains that even some FIRS guys would advise using the account for general transactions which also covers for purchases whether shopping in stores or anything. When filing, one can get away with so many things.

It's only when one transact with some companies that have collected WHT and also have filed that it will be difficult to completely manipulate. And FIRS are improving day by day. Once their system captures a transaction, na wahala

if these idiots in power really want to pay 30k, they should reduce the emoluments of political office holders by 50 percent., reduce cost of governance by another 50 percent.

the fact that they re borrowing to pay salaries tells you 30k is a joke.

RealityShot:
they didn't give me chewing gum talk more of money...


It is time for Nigerians to say NO
to this mindless Senate of ours!


AND MAKE their TENURES limited!

Is it only the legislature? What about the executive too ?

i tut it was a bad idea too,to try it with greedy nigerians....

look how much this nasty politicians earn....??...thats beyond crazy....how can you be earning like western nations and your nation doesnt generate revenues like western nations...??...you see how wicked they are now....??

anyways....lets wait and see how things will turn out....

none of them had the idea to reduce their salaries....none....

Now innocent nigerians would be responsible for paying greedy civil servants, the increment in the salaries they want - it's time we start to stone all of them O!

This is a wicked idea and it shouldn't be allowed to prevail...We must protest against it

This is a wicked and selfish government !
A government that takes from the poor to give to the poor .

crazygod:
#Rat race.
After a while when the price of commodities have increased, labour will seek amother increase in minimum wage. Running round in circles.

this country is just useless and full of dump people very soon you will buying one peak milk for 1,000 naira

i tell you....soooo whats the difference now than before....??

anyways,labour tried shah....

Because of FG laziness and vision-less policies. not even power

Why not just organise the country and take income tax? VAT is already 5percent. If no one is able to evade income tax, then oil will no longer account for more than 10 percent of revenue.

dont blame labour on this....what you want to do when you are surrounded by greedy people in their millions....??

atleast they tried....

And we are back to square one


Useless country, even the 7k minimum wage of the past is much more valuable than the current 30k minimum wage

ariketalks:
They are crazy. Let them slash those salaries of the pot-bellied men in government. That will do, and if it doesn't, allowances should be slashed as well. Their salaries amd allowances are highly irrational. Many of the things they budget for are utterly ridiculous as well. Charity, they say, begins at home.
P.S; I know i'll probably get banned for this but the truth must be said.

Why will you be banned for saying the truth ??

From a government that have zero percent economy value and no vision.

lawani:

you think its easy to pay tax....??...and if you tax the rich too much,they would just pack and leave....

Meritocracy:
Instead of increasing VAT, introduce property tax to curb excessive/unnecessary property acquisition like having fifty unused cars in garage and having like fifty houses. Dino and Onoghen comes to mind

God bless you with your entire family
