The FG should as a matter of urgency scrap NAHCON... Just waste of tax payers money.

allen113:
Iran did not go broke because of building weapons, they went broke because of sanctions imposed by the west

Why did you think they were sanctioned...?

Your answer to this question will tell you why they went broke.

lordm:
Checkout the value of the Iranian rial.
1 dollar = 1,375,000 Rial.
That country is gone

The leaders caused it...

Spending so much on weapons and terrorism instead of development.

But Muslim brotherhood are operating freely in the US and other western countries, yet the US have labelled those ones terrorists.

Even the UAE and Saudi Arabia have been warning the US about giving Muslim brotherhood free hand.

As this protest in Iran is on going. We have seen the islamic regime supporters coming out to say that the US, Israel and co are the one sponsoring the protest and calling for regime change.

But let's take a look at something.

-was it the US or Israel that crested morality police in Iran who are harassing people and denying them their basic human right.

-was it the US and Israel that made Iran to use bulk of the money in building weapons instead of helping it's people.

-was it US and Israel that made Iran to rather spend money on Hezbollahh, Houthis and Hammas instead of focusing on it's people.

-was it the US and Israel that made Iran to deny basic freedom to Iranians. We know how may of Iranians have been killed because of dressing, social media videos and other basic things that everyone does.

When the regime was showing power, Una no talk, now the people are reacting, you all are saying they are been sponsored.

Hypocri everywhere.

See person wey allow his country to be a war is advising others.

When the nation cup started, they were even pray we lose because the squad don't have much of northern players.

This is the effect of quotta system, part of what threw this country into it's present condition.

See the type of people we share country with.

I wanted to post link to the videos but bot no gree me.

Are you guys seeing the videos on tiktok and Facebook where northerners are praying for our national team to lose against Morocco because BUA promised them financial rewards.

They are claiming that BUA should have used the money to better their life.

They left all the politicians in the north whose primary duty is to improve their welfare and went and face a man who is making his money privately.
Shey they are the ones that gave malami a heros welcome after luuting the nation. But have the guts to challenge how an individual is trying to spend his money.

One was even praying that let faya bon down all his assets.

About 3 years ago, bandits attacked a joint tax force based comprising if soldiers and mopols, they inflicted heavy casualties on our security men, lost some good friends in that attack.

I was thinking that Nigerian Army will mobilise more men and go after the bandits...

They just closed than the base. That was when I know that this nation is not serious.

How can you concede defeat to rag tag terrorist. Even if you don't have the man power to go after them, use all your bombs and clear that area.

Till date areas and forest surrounding kaiji is been controlled by bandits.

The security know where they are, they have a visible location. What's stopping you from clearing them.?

Only God knows.

Most of the time, the money just remain in the acct.

Then after a while, acct goes to dormancy.

On a normal, the acct will remain in that state till "someone" remember ls the acct.

17B for just solar.

They poor man will give himself light, security, health, and education.

The leaders will leave a luxury life with the resources of everyone.

Yet they want to poor masses to be paying tax from his nothing to sponsor the life style of those who waste everything.

This one doesn't concern politicians, why do you expect them to act on this.

They asked you to buy hand gloves...

This country is finished.

Just guess game... Nothing spiritual about their speeches.

They are just abusing the word "prophecy".

There are two ways to know someone without sense...

1) the person won't correct you with facts
2) he will resort to insults.

You just proved how sensible you are.

That will in the long run strengthen our democracy because people will stop selling their votes and resist rigging

Not really, it will create room for political, tribal and greed witch hunt.

tiger28:
ONLY Social media illiterates who KNOWINGLY refuse to understand the laws.

Knowledgeable ppl know the truth!

Thank you for this...

WizardOfNG:
@OP.

The long and short of it is that Nigerians don't like to read or broaden their knowledge. They prefer second-hand information i.e 'dem say, dem say' or "my friend tell me sey".

Which means that those with a mission to deliberately misinform others, to achieve ulterior motives and hidden agendas, will always profit massively from Nigeria that is essentially a big sea of proudly and unapologetically ignorant individuals.

That's just the truth... I have been shouting and kicking against the tax act, until this morning I sat down and read about it. It's pro Nigerian. Just that you know, in Nigeria everything is usually abused.

aribisala0:
But the threshold was even lower
until 2 days ago it was 300000

Now it is 800000 with a further allowance of 500000 maximum for rent
Housing relief is not for you to get a house
It is a refund or exemption on paying tax on income further or on top of 800000 if you are paying rent

So if you earn 1300000 and pay rent 800000 your tax is zero

Your statement is uninformed and ignorant

I am still waiting for the day you will say something sensible

I will kill a goat

Note I have not expressed an opinion about the tax laws here just correcting expressed falsehood

With regard to tax laws

There are actually four new laws

FOUR
that is a huge number of laws

If you are to have any sensible thing to say they you need to spend time studying them

If you earn 1.3 and pay rent 800k, your tax is not zero my brother.

Your taxable income is 1.3m - 160k(20% of 800k) = 1.140m.

So you will be taxed on 340k that's 1.140 - 800k.

mrvitalis:
We are angry because the tree hold and relief are so low

Poverty threshold is 1095 dollar yet u want people that earn 550 dollars to pay tax?

500k housing relief? Like are you serious? What house can you get for 500k

These are the issues

Nigeria tax threshold should be minimum 3500 dollars

I fully understand this one... The relief threshold is so low.

aribisala0:
I will tell you why

Nigerians are not thinkers
That is why they are so religious
They allow others to think for them and then they download those ideas


The main fear is from the Northern Muslims

They mistrust Tinubu and realise that this would likely mean less free money from the South
Even though they have read the bill, deep down they feel Tinubu is smarter than they are and when the implementation begins there will be unexpected realities which will not favour them

It is not about impact on citizens but impact on revenue to the North

They have managed to transmit that fear to other ignorant Nigerians


Here is the truth
Whether in one year or ten years Nigerians will wake up
If the ONLY money government spends is tax
If it is true that government can enter your home or your neighbour's home remove your television to sell because you did not pay tax
Then you will not sell your vote . You will start to question what they do with the tax
You will shout when they live like kings and use your tax to buy homes in Dubai
Today we are silent because the money they steal we are not paying directly
When we pay directly we should be more militant and if we are not we deserve what we get

So there are many positive reforms that Tinubu has brought like this, like the local government funds issue

These are a Form of restructuring with one or two more things we will get to a point where you are very interested in your local government chairman. That is who you will have business with and the state government
When that happens no one looks at Abuja

The North fear that won't favour them

It's even surprising that those shouting about this issue aren't even targeted in the tax adjustment.

And if every Nigerian should be truthful, this new tax won't affect inflation.

In the previous years, western nations fought took and nail to ensure that destructive weapons did not fall on the hands of these extremists. Now, western leaders are inviting them and the end game is that they will end up getting Thier hands on those weapons gradually through democracy and by the help of woke, liberals and leftist citizens.

By the time they have access to those weapons, no country is safe, not even the core Muslim countries.

Imagine the type of people ruling Syria and Afghanistan now becoming leaders of America, Canada and western Europe. Imagine what they will do to smaller nations.


Just take a look at what happened during this Christmas and new year. See how these guys with their small population denied a sweet celebration throughout western Europe.

Non of their cities were able to experience the usual Christmas markets. Non of their cities did the usual new year crossover because of security concerns.

Try look for the videos of what happened during the holidays and see how these extremists took over the streets with destruction and looting.

Imagine the havoc they are doing with their small population. Now wait let them become the majority, you all will see the real deal.

If these western countries do not act fast enough, the world could be in danger.

It's only China and Russia that might come to the rescue of mankind, but as usual, those two countries don't dip their hands in affairs that doesn't concern them.

Is it that the leaders of Western Europe and America are deliberately trying to sabotage their nation. Cos the dangers are all there, yet they aren't taking any action to prevent further breakdown of law and order.

What sought of country brings in foreigners and place them on permanent grant making them not to work. I'm other words, you are funding foreigners to specifically come and take over your country.

Unlike previously where migrants come into a nation and strive to survive by seeking for work, which keeps him busy and away from negative thinking.

This one, you just brought in migrants, lodge them in hotels and pay for all their expenses. How on earth will they not have time to plan on causing havoc to you.

Western Europe, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and other woke western countries are putting the rest of the world in danger in the name of freedom of speech and religion and excessive political wokeness.

These freedom the are giving to Islamic extremists will cost the entire world the fragile peace that we are enjoying.

Core Muslim countries have been warning them about the dangers of giving these guys freedom, but they thought that they are the custodian of "mercy and kindness", hence they allow all sought of nonsense go on in their country in the name of freedom.

Look at all the pro Palestine protests going on in the western countries, something they dear not try in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, UAE and co, yet the west allowed it.

Look at Muslim Brotherhood that is banned in core Muslim countries, but in the west they are allowed to run as an organisation openly not even in secret.

Saudi Arabia and the UAE have been the vocal voice warning the west of the consequences, yet they are turning a deaf ear.

Look at in London, they are already creating a no go area for non Muslims, they are doing same thing in Dearborn. As their population grows, they will do same thing all over the country.

In fact, they even say it openly that the are here to take over the West, yet their leaders are not seeing the dangers.

Look at European Union placing a fine on countries like Hungary, Romania and other eastern Europe for not accepting migrants, yet when you look at the two regions, you will see that the streets of eastern Europe are much more safer than their counterparts in the west.

The only issue am seeing is the section that gave tax authority power to arrest and possibly sell off your assets in the even of failure to pay tax.

That is where I have a problem, cause our politicians will definitely use that to witch hunt their opponents.

Why are Nigerians panicking on this tax issue. If you fully understand this new tax act, you will know that it's far far better than what we have previously.

In fact a greater percentage of Nigerians are even exempted from paying tax and those who are eligible to pay have their tax reduced when compared to the previous act.

I have sat down and analysed everything, the new tax is pro Nigerians, even companies tax was reduced. Individual tax is also reduced except for those earning heavily and the difference isn't even much.

All that is need of you is to comply and that is all. Why all the outrage.

As an individual earning less than 800k, you tax is zero.

Those earning between 800k to 15/20m, your tax will reduce.

Those earning above 24m will have their tax liability increase with an amount not so significant.

Company income tax have reduced from 30 to 20 percent.

Small businesses in which a greater percentage of Nigerians fall into will not pay company income tax if their turn over is less than 50m. They won't also pay vat if there time over is less than 100m.

So where is the outrage on this tax coming from.

This is just normal talk... Nothing like prophecy.

Prophecy is always direct and clear. All these are normal motivational talk.

You see a serious country... This is what Nigeria should have done long ago before all these terrorist gained foot hold in our country.

Am sure Gumi cries is about to increase.

Who born Una to arresst Fulani for this country. B like you don't want to win next election.

Sheikh Gumi account should be the first to get blocked.
