the problem is not paying taxes it is the use of the monies collected. Monies collected only from oil taxes should not be enough to run the WHOLE country of Nigeria. To be honest we can not continue to wait on the government to make changes, I believe that this is something that we have to do ourselves. It seems as if when companies are privatized things seem to improve ( communication-phone). I believe maybe if those overseas can contribute ideas and resources ( not necessarily money) to a group or fund, seriously wanting to improve the conditions of Nigeria it may be of some help. Or a groups of individuals willing to make a change may initiate a proposal which will get things rolling, something may actually happen. I am just looking for a way to alleviate the problem at hand something MUST be done or Nigerians will continue to suffer. |

in response to Jamco45, u may be trying to come up with ideas, but the problem is not the money, it is the character of those in office. no matter how much u pay them they will spend more and steal more, it is an issue of the heart and your desire for the people u serve. all of this we are complaining about will continue until a move of God happens. The problem with Nigeria is greed which leads to the corruption and mayhem which we observe in Nigeria. But really WHAT can we possisbly do. What will it take, we are so busy complaining and compalaining, but we desperately need a solution. It is high time we do SOMETHING! My vision is to find a way to contribute something to the country, if it is small I dont mind as long as i do something, It is time for ACTION. The talking is to much and we have gotten nowhere by simply discussing and getting angry. |

this is interesting, I was thinking about this issue. well it would be great if people were forced to pay taxes ONLY if the job of providing basic amenities are provided. tax is needed to provide a functional economy. I am not too sure how the taxation process actually takes place in Nigeria but I feel like businesses should report their profit and be taxed accordingly. If they fail to report then consequences should ensue. |
