PoliticsRe: See why markets in Onitsha And Aba Do Not Significantly Impact On State's IGR by rippa(m): 7:04am On Mar 28, 2023
FatherOfJesus:
Anambra and Abia state governments will always have issues raising their IGR as fast as other states because their economy is driving by commerce, it's pure a commerce-based economy that has to do with People having to import products almost always to help fill the production deficit in the country. It's operated by an open market system that is very difficult to regulate and tax.
Unlike the service/production based economy you see in oil producing states and southwest. These economy are easier to regulate hence taxing them will not be a big issue.
Imagine a market like Ariaria and Unilever plant in Sango Otta or shell facility in Warri. It will be much easier to tax those facilities in Warri and Otta than taxing Ariaria market because there's a regulatory challenge for the latter. Because you are dealing with importers who move goods to retailers, you can only rely on tarrifs or taxing them for shop and warehouse spaces. Most of these tarrifs never get to government coffers. Tax leakage is a major problem with an open market commercial based economy.

Those markets actually make a lot of money but these monies remain in the hands of citizens instead of the government because it's hard to properly tax such forms of transactions. Imagine Onitsha market, it's like a major commercial centre for neighboring states like Enugu, Kogi, Benue, Delta, rivers, Akwa Ibom, Ondo and even Edo state and even beyond. It means that people in these states, especially the oil producing states will need to get the funds from oil, take those funds to Aba or onitsha to buy goods from importers to service the needs in their various states but at the end of the day, it becomes a problem for Abia state and Anambra to tax these transactions.
At the end of the day, funds will flow from other parts of the country to these states. Most of the funds will remain with the traders and importers because of the nature of their economy and then government will be left with the little it managed to collect.

In service and production based economy like in southwest and Southsouth, you know all the companies you will tax, they will file their returns and do the needful without stress. All you have to do is keep proper records and prosecute those who evade these taxes. Some of the money that would have been in the hands of individuals will go to the government.

This is why CBN included Abia and anambra alongside Rivers, Lagos and FCT as states with the largest cash flows in the country. The money is available because they are a major commercial hub for neighboring states but their state governments are unable to tax them.

If Bukola Saraki a serving Senate President was made to stand trial before the CCT for not declaring his assets honestly, an ex-governor that underperformed should stand trial.

If Justice Walter Onnoghen, a serving Chief Justice of Nigeria stood trial before the CCT for not declaring his assets diligently, a second runner up should stand trial.

Nobody is above the law. As an Anambra man, I need justice!

The petty thief must return what he looted from Anambra. If he claims it was not looted, then he must inform the CCT why he didn't declare it as a public official. No other way about it.

PoliticsTinubu's Drug Business Was Over 10yrs Ago; He Can Be President Now: Bayo Onanuga by rippa(op): 6:11pm On Mar 26, 2023
Bayo Onanuga, chief spokesman for President-elect Bola Tinubu, on Saturday argued that his principal’s cocaine racket in the United States happened more than 10 years ago and cannot, therefore, be used as a basis to truncate his victory at the polls last month.

The Obi supporters don’t read. They live in a cocoon of falsehood and contrived propaganda,” Mr Onanuga said while responding to a tweet from Ayo Obe, another surrogate of Mr Tinubu’s, who said the new Nigerian leader cannot be sacked by the Supreme Court because his established drug trafficking case in Chicago was already statute-barred.

Mrs Obe cited Section 137 (1)e) of the Constitution that said a Nigerian cannot be elected president within 10 years of a conviction for offences brought by the Code of Conduct Bureau.

“A person shall not be qualified for election to the office of President if within a period of less than ten years before the date of the election to the office of President he has been convicted and sentenced for an offence involving dishonesty or he has been found guilty of the contravention of the Code of Conduct,” the section said.

Mrs Obe, however, left out the preceding section of the Constitution, Section 137 (1)(d), that disqualified anyone who had been fined for any offences in the past from becoming president. That section, which applies to Mr Tinubu’s forfeiture of over $460,000 due to drug crimes in Chicago in 1993, did not give any timeline under which a convict can be released to run for Nigeria’s presidency.

It only said: “A person shall not be qualified for election to the office of President if he is under a sentence of death imposed by any competent court of law or tribunal in Nigeria or a sentence of imprisonment or fine for any offence involving dishonesty or fraud (by whatever name called) or for any other offence, imposed on him by any court or tribunal or substituted by a competent authority for any other sentence imposed on him by such a court or tribunal.”

In 2014, the Supreme Court defined forfeiture as punishment for an offence under Nigerian criminal statutes.

“The word “forfeiture” means – “the divestiture of property without compensation. The loss of a right, privilege, or property because of a crime, breach of obligation, or neglect of duty,” the court ruled on January 17, 2014, in Mohammed Abacha and the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

“A person who has forfeited property on the basis of a crime cannot be entitled to indemnity. Forfeiture is a form of punishment. There is no indemnity in our criminal procedure,” the court further stated in a majority decision delivered by now-Chief Justice Olukayode Ariwoola.

Mr Tinubu’s drug case is among the key grounds for Mr Tinubu’s disqualification in the election petition filed by Labour Party’s presidential candidate Peter Obi against the declaration of Mr Tinubu as president-elect in the February 25 presidential election.

Mr Onanuga’s aggression on Mr Obi’s supporters comes as Nigerian security agencies are warning citizens to tone down confrontation on social media.

All his principal need do is to make just one person a scapegoat, provided he has no skeleton in his cupboard.
