I don't really understand when they say "taxable adults"

As in, when you have attained a particular age, you will now start paying taxes into FIRS account even if you barely know where your next meal will come from?

Or, as a civil servant, after VAT has been knocked off your monthly salary, you will still go pay another tax? I'm not really understanding.

Then, I ask, aren't we paying taxes indirectly from buying and some services rendered to us?

To take hair cut, the barber factors in what he pays to govt by whatever name called, calls and data subscriptions are taxed, to mention but a few.

So what exactly do they mean by "taxable adults" not paying tax?

You're one of the people who infested Nairaland with hate bug and it doesn't seem like you're ready to fully change yet, as you're still hiding under new monikers to further your agenda. Too bad.

You mean it is difficult for you to report me?

I don't think I'm interested in these unnecessary sermons oga.

Since you have "busted" me, the most appropriate action is to report me for violating the rule or stfu and duck off my mention.

SLAP44:
Stay on the topic or I throw you out of this thread.

Whichever, just comot from my mention.

Daviddson:
Busted, right? Yeah!

Now that you have "busted" me, can you now leave my mention or simply report to the mods?

Whichever suits you, just try comot from my mention sha.

SLAP44:
That's how lawless your police have as become. But they will alway fail.

Mr, abeg carry your tears comot from my mention.

Crying every time from one thread to another busy writing out of any reasonable logic.

Daviddson:
Why are you quoting yourself? So that we'll not know this is your alternate account abi?

Yes o, I quoted myself so you will not know this is my alternate account. At least you can't be "deceived", hope you are now happy since you are not "deceived".

But next time, use "I", not "we" as all other members have been "deceived" by me.

How true is this?

The main opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has cautioned President Muhammadu Buhari against pursuing a third term agenda in 2023.

The party was reacting to 2023 campaigns for the president in the media, and a statement credited to the Buhari presidency on Tuesday, October 1.

But President Buhari had on Tuesday in a statement obtained by Igbere TV said he will not, under any circumstance, seek a third term in office.

A statement issued by his spokesman, Garba Shehu obtained by Igbere TV said "Buhari will not be a candidate" in the 2023 presidential election upon the completion of his second term.

Reacting in a statement by its national publicity secretary, Kola Ologbondiyban, the PDP, however, described any of such move as “a dangerous underhand politics capable of derailing our democracy and destabilizing our nation.”

He berated the statements by the Presidency “as unhealthy ploy to introduce a repugnant issue into official discourse in a bid to give it a life and achieve its fruition in the political arena.”

“The PDP says it is preposterous for the Presidency cabal and the APC to think that Nigerians cannot see through their shenanigan to import and elevate what they labeled as rumor and internet-based gossip, into official national discourse”, he said.

“Our party notes that Nigerians will not be surprised when, after the statements by the Presidency and APC, new groups surface to orchestrate more forceful agitations in the public space for the alteration of the 1999 Constitution to achieve an ignoble aim”, Ologbondiyban added.

The PDP cautioned the Presidency and the APC to note that “Nigerians are already aware of individuals and political interests in the Presidency cabal in addition to known APC agents who are behind the street demonstrations for a third term for President Buhari.”

“The party invites Nigerians to note how, having been busted, the presidency cabal and the APC are now groping for ways to cover their trails by making frivolous allegations which directly point back to them”, the statement said. 

The party therefore urged President Muhammadu Buhari to personally speak out and immediately call his supporters to order “as Nigerians will never allow anybody, no matter how highly placed, to alter any part of our constitution to serve a selfish interest.”

“The PDP insists that this has become imperative in view of the series of constitutional violations and provocative undermining of our laws by the APC and power mongers in the Buhari Presidency”, the statement added.

The presidency has already debunked this nonsense.

omenka:
Thought some folks here said it was a lie, that Maina wasnt and will never be arrested.

Which story are we to believe now? Or is vanguard up to their usual lies?

You never sabi dem.

Watch how they will soon storm the thread with all manners of self-deceiving comments that one can neither make a tail nor head out of.

For that less than 2 minute call, gej still has the respect of Nigerians, Buhari inclusive.

Pls after supreme court, which other higher court can one go in case you disagree with the ruling of the supreme court?

Cos I don't want this cuming to end few months from now.

SarkinYarki:
What is star boy waiting for ? Is this not his mate that has resigned so?

He should resign because of one imaginary rift between him and the president, right?

The rift exists only in the minds of pdp and their urchins.

Lol.

The starboy himself.

I rejoice with ganduje too and the good people of kano state.

Ganduje has out performed any gov in Nigeria today in terms of infrastructure.

If you talk about video of him stuffing hard currency into his baban riga, well, that is very bad.

However, how many govs were ever caught on camera doing same or similarly related? But we all know how stupendously rich they are when they leave office.

Well, I don't want to believe this report.

However, if it is true, both father and son are in for a very long thing.

Mehn, this is just a disaster waiting to happen.

Just hope attention of relevant authorities is quickly drawn to this before it is too late.

That doesn't mean we shouldn't blame bubu for a poor job done even though he wasn't the president when the bridge was constructed. Besides, this a state project.

Abi o.

This Gov Umahi of Ebonyi state seems the best gov any South Eastern state has ever had since 1999.

God bless Gov David Nweze Umahi of Ebonyi state.

Quite modest and simple imo though.

Though, looting of unimaginable magnitude went under gej, it appears he himself is actually innocent and this seems to account for why he never contested the outcome of the 2015 presidential election as he had no skeleton to hide.

Gej is truly a perfect gentleman.

Zeemam:
PMB and PYO are beautiful duo, may Almighty give them the wisdom to take Nigeria to the peak. God bless Federal Republic of Nigeria

Amen o.

May God bless you and your family with abundance, wealth and any of your good desires.

In this case, democracy is under threat.

SarkinYarki:
By 2022 you will carry this your same hands to type rubbish about Osinbanjo ..Mark my words

Salamrushdie, I'm not marking any of your words.

On several occasions, you have asked people to mark your words that Buhari will not be the president for the second time. As it stands now, next week Buhari will be submitting his first budget in his second term to the NASS.

So now, how do you expect me to keep marking lame and inconsequential words?

The starboy keeps wining the hearts of human beings resident in Nigeria.

The harder they try to pitch them against themselves, the more cordial their relationship gets and someone will say the living God is not a miracle working One?

We are told that one of the ways Lucifer works against mankind (and by extension The Most High) is setting asunder people having very good relationship. Now, tell me, are pdp and their willing urchins not the earthly representatives of Lucifer?

God bless pmb
God bless vp osinbajo
God bless Nigeria and Nigerians.

God bless BAT.

Nigeria has better days ahead.

Hope you have started preparing your inaugural/taking over speech comes 29 May 2023 sha?

Because no going back to the hands of hawks.

Nigeria shall be great.

PapaBaby:
What is your problem? Can you compare Lagos to any real mega city? Na for mouth dem dey say mega city. Try and travel out, it will help you to see the real world.

Pls where in your zone compares favourably with 100000000th of Lagos?

Racoon:
And they're far more richer and responsible than the agberoes/touts permanently stationed @ the bus parks always asking for "owo da"

Far more richer? I think you are right.

After all, Evans the kidnapper is a billionaire.

Someone wanted to know the commonly spoken language in the brothels in Lagos, pls do you have an idea?

PapaBaby:
And your landlord is probably Igbo.
I laff in Oba of Lagos.

And the igbo decides to own his only house in a "mega slum" instead his dubai standard city?

Racoon:
The Lagos I know in 1983 is far better than today because of population expansion and more localization of industries.

You are right.

The lagos of today has been populated by some gala and fanyogo-hawking miscreants.

PapaBaby:
Mega city or Mega slum?

Yet, some miscreants prefer hawking gala and fan yogo on the streets of this "mega slum" to staying back in their Dubai standard cities.

Good
