Ibkhaleel01: Unjust hatred for people will consume you. We see the obvious in the very hilarious VAT battle that is happening. I just dey observe. Many supported Governor Wike's decision to be collecting VAT because they say "the North contributes nothing and they want to be collecting". But if they know their facts they will understand that they are digging a hole for themselves. They will realize it is all of us that will suffer when States collect VAT. First of all, after Lagos, the next place that contributes the highest VAT (20%) is the FCT which is in the North. Yes this is followed by Rivers at 6% but Kano is next with 5% and this is followed by Kaduna. So no, it is not as you have been misinformed. The only special case is Lagos. So your State will suffer. Even Lagos will suffer with much more people migrating there. When resources are shared among Federating Units, it is shallow to always think it is injustice. Give Lagos 100% of it's VAT, Mukaila from Sokoto, Chinedu from Aba and even Lasisi from Osun will all migrate there. So what is the point again? Secondly, in the federal system, companies with less than 25 million were not VATable. You think you are doing Northerners but your company will become VATable once Wike's law is replicated in your State. Why do you think commercially massive States like Abia and Anambra do not top the list of VAT contributors? Because those boys in the market were not exactly VATable, wait until what you are blindly supporting takes effect. VAT will be collected like motor park tickets. Then you will see where hate has led you. Third, people will most likely pay VAT twice across different states with different laws because Wike does not know what is input and output VAT and did not listen to Nojeem Olasubomi Yusuf and others who politely asked him about it. Some have even termed Wike the leader of restructuring in Nigeria. A gullible people in search of heroes. Being used and misled by every opportunist.

Ibkhaleel01: When you see the Southern governors, politicians, elders, elites, traditional rulers, cashivists, freedom fighters fighting for their private pockets & their hate doped retards on social media especially those from the Niger Delta talk about restructuring & resource control, you will think they genuinely love Nigeria & their region. Sure No! What they want is more money, more power & more control over the money without no one querying them. Those governors, politicians, elders, elites, traditional rulers, cashivists & freedom fighters fighting for their private pockets that swallowed the 6 trillion naira in NDDC over the past 18 years meant to develop the Niger Delta in addition to squandering trillions of naira & billions of dollars that accrued to Niger Delta from federal statutory allocations, 13% derivation funds, ecological funds, Ministry of Niger Delta funds, taxes, royalties rents etc with only poverty, deprivation & backwardness to show for it every 4 years are the same governors, politicians, elders, elites, cashivists & freedom fighters fighting for their private pockets that will manage a restructured Niger Delta controlling all the resources there. If they truly want restructuring, they would have welcomed & implemented by now Buhari's executive orders granting financial autonomy to local governments, state houses of assembly & state judiciaries instead of rejecting it & going to court to challenge the orders. Those that are fighting for restructuring don't want independent local governments, state houses of assemby & state judiciaries because these are arms & organs of government, that if truly independent, will effectively check the excesses of the state governors & those embezzling the resources of the states in the region. Those governors, politicians, elders, elites, traditional rulers, cashivists & freedom fighters fighting for their private pockets that want resource control are not ready to invest the billions of naira & dollars they stole from Nigeria & Niger Delta in prospecting for oil & building the massive oil infrastructures required to explore, manage, store & transport crude oil & gas. That's why at the expiration of the oil leases held by some Nigerians & foreign companies, Buhari refused to renew them but rather passed the opportunity to own them to states so that they can control the resources & use the huge profits to better the lot of citizens of their states. Many states in the Niger Delta & their governors, politicians, elites, elders, cashivists, freedom fighters fighting for their private pockets rejected the opportunity because it involves huge investments & rather opted to sell this opportunity of thier states owning these oil blocks to private individuals & firms for immediate cash from 10% commisions, kickbacks & convenient taxes. They don't want the restructuring & resources control that will give the states more responsibilities, that will benefit their people or promote transparency, growth & development in their region. What they want is the restructuring that will give them more powers, more control & more money to squander. That's why they talk about devolution of powers to states that will allow the governors absolute powers to make decisions on a lot more wide range of portfolios presently under the purview of the federal government. That's why they are appropriating to themselves through their zombified state assemblies the powers to collect all taxes in their states including VAT. That's why they are rejecting financial autonomy to local governments, state assemblies & state judiciary so that they can have the additional local government billions of naira to squander, pass any selfish law they want & obtain any court order they want against their opponents while eliminating scrutiny from the same institutions constitutionally empowered to query & sanction them. That's why they are bent on having state police to intimidate, brutalize & put away any opponent or dissenting voice. Sadly, the citizens of these states have their brains & minds so wickedly twisted by the ethno-religious hate opium they are doped daily & can no more comprehend who their enemies are. A pathetic shame indeed!! This lengthly epistle is very irrelevant to the subject matter under discussion. Let each State collect VAT in their State. This will be a win-win for all.

Goldencheese: This culture of monkey dey work baboon dey chop will soon be over. Why would a state like Lagos State generate N41 billion and be given N14 billion from it? How can such a paltry amount meet the development needs of the state? Same for Rivers; they generate N15 billion and end up with N4 billion. It is high time this injustice was thrown into the Atlantic ocean. You don't want people to secede because it is extinction. You don't want to restructure. You don't want to practise fiscal federalism. You don't want to stop open grazing. You ban alcoholic drinks from the south in Kano by your religious police, yet you keep pouting one Nigeria uppandan when there is injustice and lack of accountability everywhere. Buhari is hastening Nigeria's dismemberment and anyone who thinks otherwise is playing with self-delusion.
The south is the resource base of Nigeria but it has remained chained by the North.

It's very wrong to assume that every proposed change in Nigeria is inspired by hatred for the North and the Northerners must resist it in order to maintain the status quo. As we decentralize the collection of VAT, certain problems will crop up and we will learn how to over come them. The assumption that more people will flock to Lagos because of more revenues is actually wrong. On the contrary, the new arrangements will force POSITIVE economic reforms in other presently docile States. For instance, Zamfara and Katsina States with dwindling resources look inwards and start massive investments in their agricultural potentials with the aims of generating revenues through Taxes collected on Cattles, Tomatoes, Rice, Onions, Beans etc Instead of agitating for regular payments for Bandits (codedly put out as ammnesty for Bandits), these young men destroying lives and properties will be economically engaged as revenues collectors, modern farmers, Agricultural extension workers , produce exporters etc. In Osun and Ondo States, there will be more investment in Cocoa,Timber , Kolanuts, cassava and Poultry businesses. Ekiti, Kogi and Ondo have massive rocks that can serve as raw materials for ceramics, glass and cement industries. There's no State that can't survive on it's own if they are force to put on their thinking caps. 12 Likes |

Ibkhaleel01: You know this VAT thing is like a basta*d child confidently demanding for DNA test in protest against sharing the inheritance with another child he or she considers to be undeserving. If every State stands alone, you will realise that your bragging is on thin air. We have clearly seen that Lagos, Abuja, Rivers, Kano lead the pack. If we carry out a simple VAT fertility you will see that your State is VAT impotent....and your much touted beer VAT are blank shots. Na just gum body dey make una think say your state dey fertile. You are right, moreover it will make them begin to think outside the box and industrialize their States 3 Likes |

Take Kano out of reckoning when talking about VAT. What they contribute is pittance compared to what they take in return. Their population is only good for election rigging, not revenue generation. Blank shots or not, if you don't drink beer (publicly), and prohibit sale in your state, is it fair to eat out of revenue so generated? VAT from beer is just a layman example of the anornaly, there are others in thousands. This is a good move from the southern governors. 10 Likes 2 Shares |
