[size=14pt]A stunning revelation has been made by former Green Eagles winger, Adokiye Amiesimaka, who claimed that the Golden Eaglets’ captain, Fortune Chukwudi is about 25 years old[/size].[/




As much as i agree with the lawyer, is this a good timing or could there have been a history between these two.?

Megadeals:
In one breath you upbraid Nigerians for leaving in search of opportunities abroad, in another you commend the efforts of of some Chinese who also left their "booming" country for similar reasons.
Rather than blame people who are trying to leave, why not say something about a system that produces thousands of graduates every year without any prospects of employment.
People will always look for opportunities wherever they think they can find it. If the opportunities are there in Nigeria, I'm very sure most people will stay. If you are almost 30 years old, University graduate, no job  and still living at home with your parents, driving a taxi cab somewhere in America will start to look like a good idea.

The real enemies of Nigeria are the people who will rather keep quiet in the face of blatant rape of a rich country like Nigeria and then blame it on hapless Nigerians who are just trying to get by.

YOU SAID IT ALL
Can the poster and his supporters show me threads on Nairaland or anywhere ,where they have given one busines idea or the other.

$2000 solar business (u wish)

Obviously, they're building a new and different society from scratch and it's not gonna come cheap, somebody got to pay.

Yes somebody got to pay but there are over a million ways of generating revenue

Stopping Luxury cars is discriminatory and crude.

@ adams N

When u compare countries, u need to give instances where such policies had been used in U.K.

Luxury cars are taxed in U.K  through road tax system where a car with a Large engine/emmission
pays more than one with smaller engine/emmissions.(everyone pays road tax)

U.K IS NOT STOPPING ANYBODY TO ASK FOR PROOF OF INCOME COS OF THE CAR YOU DRIVE , which is the argument here

Will you pay tax when u see this sort of rubbish?  http://www.thetimesofnigeria.com/Article.aspx?id=2232 (The outside world would see this and laugh at Nigeria)

Fhemmmy:
^^^^ God bless you with that post and that was what i said earlier as well.
The govt needs to put some few things in place and if no one has told them this, then all the dudes making decision and advising the governor gotta go.
However, pple needs to pay their taxes.

GOD BLESS U TOO AND KOBOJUNKIE AND THOSE WHO ARE AGAINST THIS METHOD/POLICY.

WE KNOW PPLE HAVE TO PAY TAXES BUT LET THE POLITICIANS COME FORWARD AND SHOW US HOW MUCH TAXES THEY'VE PAID
AS THAT WILL BE A GOOD START-POINT.
imagine ordinary counsellors coming to buy houses in London(how much is their salary).Let them come out AND proof their income.

I THINK SOMEONE CAME UP WITH THAT POLICY FOR THEM TO RAISE MONEY AGAINST 2011 ELECTION.

DEM MAMA

Da Mayor:
@ xcapade.
u are just butressing our point. pls dnt get us wrong, were not anti tax, but I want to believe d govt employs d best brains 2 come up with policies. this policy is an "Agbero" policy. imagine im running late 4 a meeting then these touts stop me on the road demanding this&that. do they have a networked computer to check if im a felon? NO. instead they drag me 2 their office admist chaos 2 confirm. imagine the time wasted. I believe there are better ways 2 achievethis.
to your point of going for assessment, lol! imagine wanting me 2 report my self 2 armed robbers. LMAO! I no fit shout. until they build confidence that all public office holders are 100% accountable, Im a retiree aslong as me & Lagos state govt r concerned, I xpect 2 hear a lot of "failed brake" cases in weeks 2 come. lol!

WELL SAID BRO.

I think it does make sense cos there's a lot of inequality in the country. If I pay my taxes, why should other people not pay theirs since we all equally benefit for the infrastructure that is almost not there!
[quote][/quote]VERY GOOD, SO WEALTHY PPLE WHO CHOOSE NOT TO DRIVE LUXURY CARS OUT OF PHOBIA OR BECAUSE HE DOES NOT WANT HIS FAMILY TO ASK FOR HELP WITH THE EDUCATION OF  HIS COUSINS ARE FREE NOT TO PAY TAXES AS THEY WONT BE DETECTED ANYWAY.


NO ONE'S ANSWERED MY QUESTION IN MY PREVIOUS POST YET OOOOOOO 

SOON THE LIR WILL START KNOCKING ON DOORS OF BIG HOUSES TO ASK FOR PROOF OF INCOME
AND AFTER THAT,THEY WILL MOVE ON TO ASKING FOR PROOF OF INCOME FRM PPLE WEARING DESIGNER
JEANS AND SHOES,

SOMEBODY STILL NOT ANSWERED ME YET OOOOOO.

HOW WILL THE LIR TELL IF I CARRY I.D CARD SHOWING THAT I WORK FOR A COMPANY IN LOKOJA
WHILE I GENUINELY WORK/LIVE IN LAGOS, country where no one can even verify identity/genuine documents.

A PLACE WHERE U CAN GET A DRIVERS' LICENCE EVEN IF U NEVER SAT IN THE DRIVING SEAT OF A CAR.

I LIVE IN U.K AND THINK MOST OF THOSE SUPPORTING THIS CRUDE IDEA HAVENT BEEN TO 9JA IN THE LAST DECADE
AND HAVE NO PLANS OF VISITING AS THEY R NOW SELF-IMPOSED ''CITIZENS''(OVERSTAYERS/ORI OLORI)

This is what the taxes are used for    http://www.thetimesofnigeria.com/Article.aspx?id=2232

Emperoh:
Most People did not read this article well
Lagos State Government is not taxing Luxury Cars rather, what it intends to do is thisl
If you can afford to own a Luxury(whatever they define that as) but cannot produce a tax clearance certificate
This is simply to push you to bring and declare to IRS Officers what your monthly cum annual income is
That way, they will be able to determine how much you earn and tax u accordingly
This is why some of us fall victim to Illiterate Police and Tax Officers whom we should be schooling about Govt laws!!!

Again, this aspect of taxation is not in my own understanding for formal workers or those who work with Coys
COs there is already a formal way of collecting you PIT. . , rather, this is for artisans, traders and businessmen who feel they can't be taxed
But go about living a big life

Kobojunkie
If you drive a Bentley, Roll Royce or whatever big car and an IRS officer stops you(if dem get liver stop that kind car )
What will simply be done is asking you to provide your tax clearance Cert, failing which two thing will happen.
You car will be impounded or you can bail your self out by proving that that car doesn't belong to you or that you do not reside or earn income in Lagos State. . . . . .whereas the later is the case, you go free(in my understanding) but assuming we have the former situation as the case,
The said car will be impounded and hereby forcing you to provide your income and expenditure account, failing whichm
the officer will evaluate you per the car you are driving. . . if you know, that the said car is a gift meaning you can't afford it, no problem,
Show them the documents to prove exactly what you are earning. OK?
I no go talk again!!!

I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE SAYING BUT IF THERE IS NO MEANS THROUGH WHICH THE LIR CAN CONFIRM WHATEVER I TELL THEM HOW CAN THIS POLICY BE EFFECTIVE.

, SIMPLY CARRY AN I.D CARD FOR A COMPANY LOCATED IN LOKOJA AND TELL THEM U DONT LIVE IN LAGOS.

MY POINT IS THAT THE POLICY SHOULD BE FOOL-PROOF TO AN EXTENT AND WOULD HAVE TO BE A FEDERAL POLICY AS PEOPLE CAN CLAIM TO LIVE IN ANOTHER STATE

STOPPING ''LUXURY'' CARS IS DISCRIMINATORY BECAUSE IF 2 SEAPARATE PPLE EARN THE SAME AMOUNT OF INCOME AND 'A' DECIDES TO BUY A LUXURY CAR WHILE 'B' SPENDS HIS WEALTH ON PROPERTIES WHERE HE EARNS ADDITIONAL INCOME(RENT),THEN 'A' WOULD GET STOPPED WHILE 'B' IS FREE.

Fhemmmy:
hahahahahahaha.
I guess there are 2 laws, one for the rich and the other for the poor, so now we all have to align with where we belong.
Useless leaders leading the animals that blvs in them.

ABI,

IMAGINE THE RICHEST BLACKMAN IN THE WORLD(DANGOTE)FIDDLING WITH THE WHOLE NIGERIAN STOCK EXCHANGE.

SO TELL ME HOW FASHOLA WILL COLLECT THE RIGHT TAXES FRM HIM IN LAGOS, He doesnt even pay the right fees to the Nigerian Customs


ONLY THE POOR AND ''UNCONNECTED'' WILL BE SUBJECTED TO THIS USELESS POLICY.

yommyuk:
AND YOU U DECLARE WHAT U WANT DEM TO KNOW.
ALL THOSE BOYS IN B.T(SELF EMPLOYED STAFF), DO U THINK THEY DECLARE REAL INCOME?AND HOW MANY HAVE U SEEN HARRASED ABOUT THEIR INCOME because THERE IS A WAY AROUND IT THROUGH AGENCIES

YOU SEEM NOT TO UNDERSTNAD ABI?
FIND A PERSON THAT WORKS AS SELF EMPLOYED IN B.T(British Telecoms-if that helps)and ask how they pay their taxes.

I LIVE AND WORK IN THE U.K AND IM TELLING YOU THAT YOU ONLY PAY TAX ON WHAT YOU DECLARE(SELF EMPLOYED).

I HAVE SEEN PPLE FIDDLE RECORDS, THE TAXMAN IS NOT THERE TO KNOW WHAT U EARN

,, AND THE U.K DOES NOT CARE WHAT CAR U DRIVE AS LONG AS your ROAD TAX /MOT IS VALID,

honeric01:
Once you can prove that you don't live or work in Lagos, then they will let you go as long as you have facts to back yourself up.

AND HOW CAN THEY PROVE THAT THE PAPERS I HAVE STATING THAT I LIVE/WORK IN KUTUWENJI ARE NOT THE RIGHT PAPERS
WHEN THE HEAD OF CUSTOMS HAD FAKE CREDENTIALS

THE NUMBER 3 MAN IN 9JA(HEAD OF SENATE 1999) HAD FAKE PAPERS AND WERE NOT DETECTED UNTIL PRESS PILED-ON THE PRESSURE

, WE STILL HAVENT FORGOTTEN THAT THIS SAME STATE WAS RUN ON TORONTO PAPERS FOR 8YEARS OOOOOOOOOO

yommyuk:
In the U.K your taxes are deducted by the Inland Revenue and
u do not need to be lured.

correction - if you are in paid employment it is deducted by your employer on behalf of the Inland revenue (deducted at source)
If you own a buiness or self employed - it is the individual who is obligated to voluntarily declare his/her income to the Inland revenue.
Failure to do that and if found out - Various penalities apply

AND YOU U DECLARE WHAT U WANT DEM TO KNOW.
ALL THOSE BOYS IN B.T(SELF EMPLOYED STAFF), DO U THINK THEY DECLARE REAL INCOME?AND HOW MANY HAVE U SEEN HARRASED ABOUT THEIR INCOME because THERE IS A WAY AROUND IT THROUGH AGENCIES.
IT IS WHAT U DECLARE AS INCOME(SELF EMPLOYED) THAT U PAY TAX ON. JUST BE SURE YOU WILL NOT BE GOING BACK TO CLAIM BENEFIT.

NIGERIA IS JUST TOO CORRUPT AND DISORGANISED FOR THIS POLICY TO WORK .

yommyuk:
It's funny how everyone agreeing with this mess is outside the country {UK to be precise}.

You are absolutely right man.  

In nigeria people actually get away with murder when it comes to paying tax.
Most of these Luxury Car Owners are tax invaders. I am also sure that 90% of them are not insured.(if not more)
These are the people that always complain about bad roads, Armed robbery to name a few.
I have no problem with the concept. It's the usuage that is my concern.
If such funds can be used for inproving our roads, Tax derived from Insurance companies via client premiums used in improving the police force
Then Kudos to FASHOLA - EKO KONI BAJE

We nigerians that are resident in the UK know the huge benefits derived from paying tax. Or do u think all the good roads, electricity and water supply, security came from Crude Oil in the Soil.
Typical Nigerians. When Fashola was clearing Oshodi, u said kudos because it did not effect u personally. Now Fashola is after you for Car tax
You are gnashing your teeth.

AND WHERE IN THE HISTORY OF THE U.K HAVE PEOPLE BEEN LURED TO DECLARE INCOME.

Fhemmmy:
If that hasn't been paid, then, tell Fashola to deal with his people and not punish the woman for what has nothing to do with her.

I think the Govt firstly need to invest in having proper
machinery in place and the taxes and revenue will come
in naturally cos i dont see the point in LURING pple to come
and declare their income.It is the Govt's responsibilty to be
able to determine the citizen's income.

In the U.K your taxes are deducted by the Inland Revenue and
u do not need to be lured.

Though i dont live in the U.S,i have friends who claim to fiddle their tax declaration
at the end of the year.

Therefore,Nigeria as a country is too disorganised to determine pple's income not to talk of Lagos state.

At the end of the day,the intended revenue would only end up in the pockets of the LIRS officials who would be collecting fees to fiddle records.
(The Nigerian Customs is a very good example)

SO CAN A TAX EXPERT THEN TELL ME WHAT HAPPENS TO SOMEONE
WHO LIVES AND WORKS ABROAD AND ONLY CAME HOME FOR 4WEEKS
OR SOMEONE WHO LIVES AND WORKS IN IBADAN WHO ONLY DROVE TO
LAGOS FOR A FUNCTION.

MY OPINION IS THAT THIS SORT OF POLICY SHOULD BE A FEDERAL ONE AND NOT FOR
THE STATE AS HOW DO U THEN DETERMINE WHO LIVES IN LAGOS IF PEOPLE THAT
LIVE IN LAGOS START REGISTERING CARS IN OYO OR OGUN STATE.

THE BEST THEY CAN DO IS COME UP WITH ROAD TAX SYSTEM,WITH HIGH EMMISSION/LARGE ENGINE
VEHICLES PAYING MORE.

EXTRA REVENUE WILL BE GENERATED FROM DEFAULTERS BY CLAMPING OR IMPOUNDING VEHICLES WITH EXPIRED ROAD TAX

THE NUMBER OF CARS ON THE ROAD WILL ALSO BE REDUCED.

, THE ROAD TAX SYSTEM IN ITSELF SHOULD BE A FEDERAL POLICY TO MAKE IT FOOL-PROOF.

Lagos should look at other ways of raising revenue.
Generating it's own power would be a very good idea.

De Splash:
Good topic.

I think it's wrong, including all those "Awilo dance" I see
in churches these days.

Guy please, christian dance?
The next we're gonna hear is christian food and xtian cars.
Anyway, i think God looks through the heart as u praise and worship him,
and acknowledges your moves as u dance to him.

What do u think God will make of this dance moves.(Or pretend to be a god and rate this moves rendered in praise to u)
