jaxxy:
Not to employ his services bt to guide him on what to do. He may even have benefits to claim from government in tax reduction or even bail outs. He can’t read everything there is to get the needed information.

He needs to settle with his landlord and get his shop back open or get another shop even if he has to borrow or seek help from family and friends so he can start earning again.

The system in this country is ridiculous and toxic.

In essence the lawyer will guide him for free?

PROPHETmichael:
All the brother need is 100 people from nairaland to give him 1000 naira each and the problem is solve. Let me know how I can contribute my own

This could be the OP.
No giveaway will happen here,if anybody tries it I will make sure they close this thread.
UDUj seem you were right after all.

jaxxy:
It’s either Lagos state government is mad or ur frnd is just being extorted because he’s seen to be new and naive. What sales did he make that they are taxing even during the lockdown when government is supposed to cushion the effects of the pandemic for atleast the the next 6 months after the lockdown was lifted.

Sadly in the country we have draconian laws set up by a highly irresponsible government and citizens who don’t even know their rights.

He should get a tax lawyer.

Na Chevron em be?
Person say e no dey fit go house again for day time cos e dey owe 3 months rent,you dey suggest tax lawyer like say na NGO.
A lot of you people are out of touch with reality and outright stupid most times.
What he should be doing is educating himself very well on how tax on that his kind of business works to the letter and then bouncing to the tax office armed with so much info to wrestle it out with them and correct his tax books.
Like say na with sand them go use get tax lawyer smh

pascal558:
Do you have any article or stuff we can reference to on this? It will be really helpful.
UDUJ

I don't have any material,was speaking from my years of experience in business.
Maybe UDUj might have something.

UDUJ:
I don't think the op is genuine. If it's really true and it's in Benin city I might be able to tell some of my people based in Benin to assist him at the tax office free of charge, but it looks like a scam to me. Anyway I am waiting for him to reply me.

Okay great,let's see how it goes.
The whole story looked really naive and dumb to me though,
But I didn't want to judge because a lot of people are ignorant to how tax works and usually let tax people open office for their head,so I am still skeptical and don't wanna judge yet.
Eventually sha....

Consumer tax is what is known as VAT,
And businesses with an annual turnover less than 25million is clearly exempted from that rubbish.
Educate yourself very well young man so that people wouldn't cash out on your ignorance.
Any small thing Nigerians don dey beg and acting naive ,
Na wa!

Chummyno a ni:
an elderly man owns the truck, and I am selling on his behalf. I am in lagos while he is in abuja,maraba. I am using the pix he was able to send to me. It is 3ton

Okay,
Its very clean but small for my kind of work.
I love it nonetheless .
Have already got a Mitsubishi canter fuso head for 5.5m toks,just head and chassis,no bodyyet.
Will jump on you if you got better offer.

tauceti23:
Good evening, and may God bless you and yours richly.

You are welcome.

Because we might earn the revenue from the 10mbpd that can pay for the subsidy...and even then it isn't enough.



Dangote will get to 300000bpd by 2030...HE won't reach full production immediately. Plus, our petrol needs are growing.....one dangote refinery might not satisfy everyhting

300000bpd will meet about 3/4 of our needs now...that is if all Dangote's refienry does is produce petrol




Subsidy means there is a price control which means fuel is sold below its cost perproduciton of liter...meaning Dangote won't make enough profit to pay for maintaning his refinery.

NNPC refienreis failed in part because of the above.




Still read the document...it explains why we use generators.

I'm sorry but you are not very bright,
I can't argue with an undynamic dunce...
Find someone to help you grow some sense.

tauceti23:
No matter how much we try, we cannot produce up to 5million barrels of crude a day, talkess of the ten million barrels Saudi produces.




We are not buying crude, neither did I talk about buying crude...the revenue I was talking about was the revenue earned from the crude we produce

We don't produce as much as the Saduis priduce, and even if we did, our populaiton is too high for us to have much left over fr subsides, and refienry repairs and upgrades.

That's my point, and you missed it.





Power supply is a different matter. In brief...since this is out of topic really...power supply in Nigeria is in a bad state because

1.We don't pay as much for power as we should be paying

2.And some people don't pay for power at all.

mEANING THAT power is run at a loss....meaning no money for you guessed it upgrades.

If you have time, read this. Generators were not meant to be permanent.

And you keep missing a simple point I don't know why.
Who told you Nigeria has to produce 10mbpd to keep fuel prices at below 200naira a litre without subsidy?
Dangote's refinery that is said to satisfy local consumption and have some to export has just a capacity of 600,000bpd.
Doesn't that tell you that all Nigeria needed to have done is beef up production with an extra 450,000bpd which will go to its local refinery and still it will export it's 2mbpd and still earn fx from there?
You keep talking about losses and subsidy and I ask you,
Why would you need the subsidy when clearly this solves it?
The refinery will be maintained very well from its sales proceeds and the operators of these new wells that will produce this extra 450,000bpd can be paid with oil as usual which will come from this same field,so I wonder what you are talking about.
How are bunkerers managing their own facilities too when they too sell way below N150/l?
Nothing will happen to Nigeria's income and the fuel problem would have been solved.

As for power,that is something else as I wasn't talking about it.

tauceti23:
Saudi

1.produces five times as much crude as we do..if not more

2.For a population of 33 million people, compared to our 200 million people.

Comapring us with Saudi is like compariong a two families ...one of the familes has ten children and three dependents and a montly income of N150000, the other has two children and no dependents AND a monthly income of N800000. The family with two kids will live better than the family with ten kids and LESSER income.

Saudi can do that because they can afford that. Nigeria can't...unless we produce 20 times more crude than we produce,. and get more revenue subsequently.

P.S I don't own a refinery, and my thots on subsidy started around the 1990's when I supported subsidy remaining till 2012 when I changed my mind after reading and thinking

PS2...Nigeria has to diversify our economy and widen the tax base for us to afford subsidies. Or oil goes up above our breakeven price of $133 per barrel.

The bolder is not necessary in this context as Nigeria does not have to buy crude,
We can produce as much as we want to feed local refineries for local consumption and still export this same volume we do now and nothing will happen to our petrol income.
So I wonder what we will be needing the revenue that you keep talking about to buy
When you don't purchase crude ,then know that prices of petroleum will be very cheap,
That's how bunkerers have been able to sell cheaper than refineries upon their poor economies of scale.


You want to diversify the economy yet you want to increase prices of petrol which produces power for the same buusinessss you want to bring about diversification.

Funny.

tauceti23:
How do you propose we fund the refineries continued maintenance and upgrade by selling petrol from the refienreis at a 'subsidsied' price below the cost of production and paying a subsidy that covers the difference, not letting the refienreis make a profit?

You see the problem...and that's how our NNPC refienreis failed.

As hard as it sounds...one has to let the market control the price of fuel....so that the grredy people can make enough of a profit not just to maintain refineres, but pay salaries, taxes, raise salaries, raise pensions, etc etc.

It is one thing to build refinereis, but if they are not profitably run, they will crash and burn.

How do you know selling petroleum at N200/l is below cost price?
Are you a refinery owner?
How come Saudi has been doing it since and no complaints?
Even the US upon their strong currency?

tauceti23:
How do you propse we fund subsides, with low revenues from oil, and with a poor tax to gdp ratio?

(And don't mention corruption or cutting cost of governance...because the revenues from that can only pay for a certain time till it runs out.)

By owning our own refineries and employing indians only to run it since as Nigerians are all thieves and not serious with work.
I mean even the gateman will be indian cos they ste cheap and effective.
Then let me see how we will not have fuel at N200 or close with zero subsidy.

tauceti23:
At some point the government is going to have to face reality and remove subsidy.

Nigeria cannot afford it.

Are you in Nigeria's pockets?

I love what I am seeing here,but I'll have to remove that tank to fit a container on it.
Can you show me more of the rear axle and also the tonnage of this truck?

Justkatty:

pocohantas:
There is nothing I agreed to. Definitely not any comment of yours, definitely not his. That was just me explaining what could have possibly played out, if at all his narration is anything to go with.



You would be amazed at the kind of humans in our midst.

Stick yo the point,whether you agree to any of my points or not means nothing to me.

pocohantas:
It is possible, but under duress. He was definitely armed, maybe a knife or gun. The victim tells him to calm down, we would have the sex, but you have to use protection. Maybe he decided to go grab the protection and she makes for the door. He overpowers her and takes it from there till he kills her.

That is a more plausible scenario.

Finally you don agree,
All that una Oga at the top nonsense was BS and I'm glad I told you people from the start.
They even went as far as saying he supplies body parts to Akpabio
Nigerians and their slow brain!

This una so called "update" keep getting stupid by the day.
Just see how stupid,off and ugly this car looks,
Spits!

Because as dollar became scarce in Nigeria,
Currency smugglers now go to those countries to buy dollar to come and sell in Nigeria,chasing the cfa with a lot of naira hence,making the naira valueless.

Working class isnt enough these days ooo,even 18k/month too na working class.
Better state your income bracket and include your physical and mental attributes so you can attract your kind.

Experienced something similar some days back.
Very intolerant,vindictive, rude set of humans.
Well,I've grown to just ignore and carry on,
No more long talks or trying to persuade anybody over their bad behaviour.
