Agbaje’s Response To Fashola’s Tax Indictment by nigerianvenom(m): 6:26am On Jan 29, 2015
Mr. Jimi Agbaje expresses surprise at this rather personal and unprovoked attack against his person by Governor Raji Fashola.

Just in January, the Commissioner for Finance sent a personal letter to Mr. Agbaje, commending him for his faithfulness in payment of taxes relating to his residence.

It is a curious contradiction that several days later, the Governor himself would express sentiments clearly in contradiction to the spirit and letter of that voluntary and unsolicited commendation from the state.

Are they feeling the heat of Agbaje and PDP’s impending victory in the state, or how does one explain this recourse to personal attacks recently embarked upon by chieftains of APC?

Although he founded JayKay Pharmaceuticals, Mr. Agbaje left the directorship of the company in 2006, and this is on record with the state. He is no longer involved in the running of the company. And today, he is not even an Executive Director.

We have a letter signed by Ayo Gbeleyi, Honourable Commissioner for Finance in Lagos State, where Agbaje received commendations for fulfilling his tax obligations. The letter from the Ministry says: “A review of our payment records from 2011 shows that you have been consistent with the payment of Land Use Charge on the above property (Agbaje’s residence in Apapa).

“The Lagos State Government wishes to express its appreciation to you on your consistent fulfilment of your civil responsibility and your singular contribution towards the development of the state.

“We look forward to your continued cooperation in this regard.”

It will be recalled that the Governor only about two weeks ago said that Agbaje was too old to be Governor, although the PDP Candidate is only 57.

This fresh outburst amounts to another futile attempt at mudslinging by a desperado group that is up against a formidable opponent, and it has only succeeded in staining the source.

Lagosians should be wary of APC and its bag of tricks.

This letter is for his private residence and not his company Jay Kay pharmacy. You people should not attempt to lie.

If this is for the company, it will be addressed to the company and their address will be there. They should bring the one for the company out.

We will never cast our vote for a tax evader in Lagos because that is the main source of LASG source of revenue and when the Governor himself is a tax defaulter it will be difficult for him to implement the tax law and punish the defaulters like him.

Can i now ask fashola to forget about the issue of ''agbaje evading tax'' and focus on delivering the devidend of decmocracy to lagosians, just like the president was asked by apc to focus on his work as a president and forget about buhari's waec certificate? Fashola should focuse on liberating lagos state from tinubu's hand and stop crying over minor issues.
Hypocrites.

Governments don't send feedbacks about a company to the house of the owners. They address and send it to the company directly.

This is for his private residence. Mr. Agbaje should not try to lie

Fashola was talking about unremmitted taxes by Jimi Agbaje's business firm (Jaykay pharmacy) and not of his residence. The Governor clearly mentioned Jaykay Pharmacy and not his residential building.

was too old to be Governor, although the PDP Candidate is only 57.

Too old at 57 to govern one state but ready to foist a 73yr old to govern 36 states.

Obviously, Fashola with his utterances these few months has shown that he is not in any way an intelligent man.

Jimi has now provided not only evidence of tax payment but an appreciation letter singling him for his prompt payments.


That aside, a delay in tax payments is not the same thing as tax evasion.

Fashola is very irresponsible

For 8 years he did not know Agbaje was evading tax until the eve of election

He is clearly more concerned about Tinubu's interest than the public interest!

That is evidence for his house not the pharmacy. Governments don't send company related matters to private homes. He should provide one for his own house.

And please why is the date 30, January 2015? The letter was written tomorrow?

Did your brain miss the part where he said he has left the company since 2006 and the government has record of this?

Although he founded JayKay

directorship of the company in 2006, and
this is on record with the state. He is no
longer involved in the running of the
company. And today, he is not even an
Executive Director.


So any issue of evading tax would be for his personal residence and that has been squashed also
