Do you know the cost of acquiring a land and building house in nigeria ? Your idea of paying "heavy property tax" or whatever to the government is total rubbish. |

Taxation is good talk if the government will put the money to good use instead of diversion to personal use. It will also reduce people acquiring landed properties they don't intend to use in years as this in its own way slows down development these I agree on but i totally disagree with the logic of people Buring their dead on their property. The example you gave about the young man does not suggest how his late mom being buried on their property is hindering development. You only taked about it hindering the intended resell of the property. No one knows if after the said property is sold it will be developed or just keeps being resold for financial gain while not being developed. I have never being to South Africa or Asai so I can't say for both countries but I have lived in the US and Europe and people who can afford it bury their dead on their properties. The wealthy(elites) as the world likes to put it in these countries too bury their dead on their property. I would love to agree with you on laws to forbid people from buring their loved one on their property but you haven't given a good logic as to why. Also, every part of the world has a culture and your culture is your identity. In the US, people celebrate their cultural days, even their marriages is based on their tradition (US and Eu) and I don't mean just black people and Asians . Even the pure whites(caucasians) have traditional dishes. People don't pick this observations when coping the white folks. Also we are still 3rd world as sad as that is so when we talk about development which we all seek, I personally don't like dead folks being buried at home but in my opinion it is below %1 the reason for our slow real estate or structural development as a country.

hammermcc: That people did not reply you shows you are not making any sense. 1 .People don't like paying tax any govt that try to do that will clash with the masses. 2. All the tax that have been paid in one form or the other how many social benefit are the people getting. Security is zero, Electricity is zero Universities are on strike Road is zero Rather these politicians will vote security votes running to billions for themselves. Please if you have too much money go and donate it to motherless home instead of suggesting we paid property tax 2 Likes |

You want to copy everything in the developed worlds.. Ok ,in the UAE they don't pay tax because the money from the oil revenue is used to develop the country. Let Nigeria copy that. Nigerian politicians/ law makers are the highest paid in the whole world. Imagine those illiterates who use the house of reps to boast about how many wives and kids they've got and cant even write a sentence. 1 Like 1 Share |

Re: Nigeria Should Ban Interment Of The Dead In Their Compound. by Tradegood: 1:04pm On Apr 28, 2022 |
hammermcc Kindly address this please. Are you saying the yearly tenement rate paid by LANDLORDS is not enough or something or that it is not TAX enough? And minimum wage is N30 000? You and I know that Landlords will simply transfer the new tax burden to rent. The Landlords will not feel the pinch. A single room that ought to be N10,000 is going for N150,000 because of the high cost of living. Who is the Government? Government is the people, and the people have all said no to your suggestion. 1 Like 1 Share |

That's not a barrier, all he needs is family resolution to move the corpse to another place for better interment. Procurement of another parcel of land for the arrangement that's all. |

hammermcc:regrettably the world would have ended then. Funny how you guyz will argue the irrelevant instead of the relevant. How will burying a corpse at the cemetery improve the security of the nation or reduce the prices of goods and services. Mind you we do not have to be like others to get it right. If they are not burying their corpses on the road, then I don’t see how it is affecting development. |

hammermcc: Sir, what makes you think property taxation is right? There are countries doing well without taxation (except for the normal PAYE). UAE is one example. Even in the Western world, people are getting tired of the excessive taxes. Imagine working all month only for you to hand over almost two thirds of your wages to the taxman. It's a great disincentive. It's why wealthy people find legal ways to avoid doing such. What we should be doing here to raise revenue for go ernment is setting up businesses in conjunction with the private sector (What Obasanjo tried to do with Transcorp and what happens in South Korea), or invest in fast growing businesses in foreign countries. Excessive taxation is killing Europe and North America. |

hammermcc: I have been saying this, land fragmentation is one of major problems confronting real estate development in Nigeria. All lands should be owned by the government and planned for both industrial and residential uses. For instance, how can some few rich people confiscate large expanse of lands in the highbrow areas like Ikoyi, Asokoro, Maitama, etc, for their own personal and family uses without paying property tax ![]() |

hammermcc:What property are talking about? Instead of you to channel your energy at Land grabbing, real estate fraudsters and other property scams you are busy talking about burrying the dead in the house or away. You can't buy Land now in Lagos without re-buying the same land twice or three times. It's guaranteed! And nothing is being done about it. We leave real issues and start wasting energy on less important ones. How many people bury their dead in their houses these days? It was majorly in the past and phasing out gradually. |
