That part of the constitution is confusing

IVORY2009:
The APC might have a case here, they might claim the case never took place under our jusridition and pray the court to strick out the prayers of the Lp

I suspect that too however, the second part says any court. It didn't specify whether it should be a court in Nigeria

Parachoko:
In the USA, if there's enough evidence a person is a drug dealer, Jail term and losing almost everything one is acquired is sure.

One can't just get an easy judgement in a drug related case in the USA

https://www.google.com/amp/s/sunnewsonline.com/letter-exonerating-tinubu-from-drug-cases-in-us-resurfaces/%3famp

Tinubu was never prosecuted for a drug related issue in the USA neither has he been found guilty of commiting any crime in the USA.

Well, take your case to court

Parachoko:
The US embassy have made it clear Asiwaju was never found guilty of any drug related case in the USA.

Asiwaju court case in the US happened more than 25 years ago and is not within the jurisdiction of Nigeria.

The tribunal go throw away this particular case.

yes but he was fined. Read this article again.

Peter Obi will be relying on Section 137 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to disqualify Bola Ahmed Tinubu's and make his votes wasted votes. So let's see what this sections says and how it may affect the tribunals outcome.

(1) A person shall not be qualified for election to the office of President if -

(e) 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; or

the truth is, there no place like home, no matter what. Don't appease strangers at the expense of people at home. Ebeano will be taught that bitter lesson with all the shit he's saying. Yorubas will never treat him better than people from home

weyreypey:
After 24 years. He has tried. Ebeano is our man in the southwest.

Lol, Y'all will soon profile him tribally. Just wait and see

weyreypey:

BREAKING: Chimaroke Nnamani’s Ebeano political group moves to APCPublished on March 21, 2023By Francis Ugwu

The Ebeano political structure founded by the former governor of Enugu State, Senator Dr Chimaroke Nnamani, has joined the All Progressives Congress, APC.

The announcement was made by Chief Emmanuel Okwor, Chairman of Ebeano, on Tuesday in Enugu.

The announcement is coming a day after its leader, Chimaroke, announced his decision to dump the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

The former Enugu governor had been groaning over his loss of the Enugu East senatorial district seat to Kelvin Chukwu of the Labour Party, LP.

”The alliance with APC is to consolidate the partnership with President-Elect Bola Ahmed Tinubu to achieve good governance in the country,” Okwo said.

He further added that members of the ‘Ebeano’ political family across the country had been consulted and in agreement with the alliance in the interest of the people

That's the end of his poltical career as far as Enugu state us concerned

ahiboilandgas:
for mumu and bigot you be you don't know that vat is shared back to the state and LGA in proportion of 40 30 30 the state and LGA take 70 percent. To futher add Lagos is more concern about serious investment with better tax potential like dangote refinery, lekki deep sea port, Eko Atlantic city . Not all the igbo gala and coke business like brothels, shot time hotels,indomie stop ,clearing and forwarding,fake drinks,fake spare spare etc this are dangerous to Lagos society.

Okay, if I supply 5000 shoes to Rasheed, how will I be charged for VAT if I receive the payment into my personal account. You be mumu 😂

If Lagos state likes, they can tax big firms, me no go pay tax. Thanks

ahiboilandgas:
real money come from Vat ( cannot be evaded) cooperate income tax ( mainly public quoted firms) big MNC , ground rents , toll gates etc. How you wan evade that wan .If you buy recharge card vat dey ,if you transfer money levy dey .It you get property ground rent dey , if you pay school fees tax dey. Even the Gala and coke una dey sell up and down Lagos vat dey. Una prostution igbo girl do vat dey ( hotel,uber ) so Lagos is self sustaining .No way out only to commit suicide

at your age, you don't know that state government doesn't collect Vat.

Vat is collected by only Firs 😂

Dey play

Jogs1900:
You don't know that LIRS do staff audits in companies?I know multinationals and other big companies won't dream of this.
Shey you go evade LUC too..
If you like inflate contract fees but you will still pay withholding tax.

staff audit lol 😁😂

You don't know anything okay

Onyiridike:
It is not everything that you bring to public space.
Be wise!

true, let's do it silently. Kindly unquote this

Egoat:
I'm not talking about you. We know selling gala and drinks under bridge doesn't add a penny to Lagos revenue.

I'm talking about the real ones who will beg and do anything to stay in Lagos.
You have nothing to lose na.

At least I will still not pay the tax 🤣

ahiboilandgas:
mumu it better to move out to Abia state and the same business there and pay tax to you kinsmen to develop the dead state! Your company must be a mushroom firm . Company need good cash flow in cooperate accounts for growth,profitability and loans . The vulacnlizer business or gala selling your run don't add any thing tangible to Lagos.

Don't you think that making money in Lagos, evading Lagos state taxes and then taking your profit to Abia also works 🤣

Egoat:
Well charity begins at home.
You should take the tax to Ablia.

I want to reside in Lagos and evade tax in Lagos state

Egoat:
Shinedus don dey pay tax untop gala and bra?

Yes o

ChiefJusticeFuc:
This is why we call you parasites .

You don't pay tax to Lagos but have the effrontery to claim you developed it and now want to determine who will be the governor .

Osu

Lol, Shebi you be first class citizen. Go and be paying the tax nau. 🤣🤣🤣

Shebi the tax don give you electricity and portable water, werey

....

ChiefJusticeFuc:
And that's how you shall remain as a third class citizen .

there's nothing like 3rd class citizen in Nigeria. Do you have electricity?
ODE wey no get potable water dey call another person 3rd class citizen 😂

I no even dey pay una useless Lagos state taxes

Larryton:
It's nobody's problem, then we will keep taxing you .

no problem as long as I keep making money in Lagos.
To think of it, my kind of business, I evade most Lagos state tax because receive a lot of money into my personal account instead of business account 😜

Lagos state can only tax me on whatever comes in from business account. Dey play

sal1974:
The last time Lagos senator demands special status for Lagos,senators from other region stood against it,so you wishing Kano gets more allocation than Lagos is not a new thing.

no be by force make them count me o. No be fight

9jatriot:
This is what people of Lagos get for voting Peter Obi over a Yoruba man in Lagos.

I can tell you for free that if you follow this part, Ijaw who I believe are the next homogenous high population will become the third highest number of people in the country. That will now simply make them one of the 3 major tribes in the country.

I hope no one will cry marginalization when that self-inflicted incident happens.

In this life, everything is not by gra gra

alright then. I still won't get counted. Thanks

ChiefJusticeFuc:
Then take your OSU ass to the yeast to be counted there so your corrupt Okija shrine mafiya governors can get more federal handouts to loot...


Simple.

nop, I will be in Lagos because it's one Nigeria

Femmyfamous4u:
Inasmuch it okay to protest in this form but it is not the right thing to do. Instead, it is better to go to your state of origin to increase the population there so that they can get more allocation.

Yes, if I can't then I won't be counted

Larryton:
Go back to your land if you don't want to be counted

nope, I will be in Lagos and I won't be counted 😂

bcomputer101:
Chest beaters.
You said more than this before the Governorship election here in Lagos.
I swear, you guys are just creating more crises and enemies for yourselves in Lagos.
By the time we are done with you people, everyone of you will need to come and be marking register in Governors office everyday, if only you still want to stay in Lagos till another day.


Bring it on...
Shéy lé stupid ni

no be fight, I won't be counted in Lagos 😂

I don't think you can force people to be counted bro, take it easy

kingthreat:
If you will not be counted in Lagos, then you don't deserve to be in Lagos. By the way, the National Population Council is a FG agency. If you don't want to be under the will of the FG, it is better you join your brothers in the bush wearing blue beret shouting Biafra or death.

nope sir, I decided whether to be counted or not.

ChiefJusticeFuc:
Then why not just leave Lagos and go back home ?

There is no pharaoh holding you down and if you all remained in heebo land there won't be any attacks on you .

Why not just go do a 6 months practice dry run in your future Biafra ?

Nope I won't
