santori: Are Nigerians ready to pay tax to sustain it? You are talking as if giving N5000 to 25 million people will complete the cost of providing it. You are looking at the money that will be recieved by those families and nothing else, that is not the reality of running a welfare system. 1 Like |

santori:to run a welfare system for a start u need an extra vibrant buoyant govt, and basically viable tax paying population. With a small civil service and minimal govt recurrent expenditure etc Also do you know how census figures are derived? A lot of partisan politics is involved. Do u know the rate at which our population increases ? Now let's say buhari curbs corruption, so the next thing to do instead of saving for rainy days ( make no mistake they're coming) we should spend it on feedn the poor masses whom most likely the major benefactors will be the almajiris up north, whom WILL never educate themselves or work. Have u head of ghost workers? God I'm weary at hw ppl go to school bt cnt reason. 3 Likes |

londoner: now you are talking, if government can lead by example by being prudent and accountable, it will be easier for it to convince the people to pay tax, the people will readily oblige because they know the money tax paid will still come back to them in forms of service delivery and provision of basic infrastructures by the government welfare package can never be every body, cos it can't be sustainable that way, the government will have to develop a scientific approach in determining who deserves it or not also who should be expunged,besides there should be a duration for a particular age bracket to benefit from it mind you welfare package is a veritable tool for curbing crime |

EasternLeopard: Nigeria does not earn N5trillion a year pleas. The figure is close to N18 trillion now and potentially N50 trillion if the right things are done. In the Excess Crude Acocount alone, Obasanjo left something like $30bn, unspent funds equalling N5trillion. Jonathan's gov t is lying, very corrupt and dangerous. LNG alone gives Nigeria $2bn a year. Crude theft is actually some powerful people stealing 400,000 barrels a day which is $7.8bn (N1.4 trillion). Tax revenues lost per year is probably (N2 trillion) 1 Like |

santori:is there ny formal sector tht doesn't pay tax today? Were saying instead of spending on unsustainable. welfare invest in more sectors so u get more tax payers, or better still privatise all the sectors. With that govt bcomes a tax collector basically. Please explain how this welfare will be budgeted for hvn in mind census statistics is politically driven and partisan oriented, Plus take it or leave it ,nigeria is a monolithic economy that's on the verge of loosing its livewire and will will take several yrs investing to diversify. Is a welfare what we need right now? That's like a rich man jes realises stocks r down n decides thts da best time to feed his kids more than usual, so they don't know he's getting broke! 1 Like |

Adminisher: Where did you get your figures from? stop spewing gibberish. Whn You talk about GDP, you're tAlking about the monetary value of an economy not the actual amount of that economy that accrues to the government in form of taxes and royalties which implies that that amount is available both to the public and privAte financeers to reinvest in that said economy to generate more returns, the part of that gdp the government can influence the polity with is the part that accrues to it and that part should be mostly gotten as a fraction of the returns of the privately accrued portion of the gdp (taxes) which meAns a strong government will be needing a stronger private sector not a dependant private sectoR.
