Mr Bode Abodunrin Bombshell On Igbo Traders. by egbusi1(m): 4:01pm On Oct 23, 2015 |
IGBO TRADERS CONTRIBUTE 80% OF THE 36 STATES IGR - MR. BODE ABODUNRIN. Paffcomm Trade and Commerce Analyst Mr, Bode Abodunrin said yesterday that the Nigeria State govt have two main sources of income. He said, the federal govt budget allocation and Igbo traders are the main source of income sustaining all states of the federation. The Analyst said that apart from the federal allocation the Igbo traders contribute about 80 percent of all states of the federation IGR.He said that with the fall in oil price that states governors have created more taxes to increase their revenue to sustain the state expenditures. Mr. Bode warned that that the increment on taxes by states on the Igbo traders is destroying and killing their businesses. He said that states are creating a lot of burden to the Igbo traders instead of encouraging them. Mr, Bode Abodunrin also warned that over taxing the Igbo traders may result to their relocation to other places which will bring untold hardship to the state they left. According to him, he said no state can replace Igbo traders if they leave the state. He said trading is not what you just wake up in the morning and join. He said the Igbo traders are very skilled in the art of doing business because they undergo business training in a particular area of business which takes them many years to build the skill, structure, Finance, etc. before opening their own business. Therefore, it is not a thing a state govt can replace over night. Mr, Bode Abodunrin also said that Igbo traders has not only sustained the state's economy, but they are also number one in Nigeria for infrastructural development of the 36 states of the federation in terms of private development, e.g. building of private and commercial houses, circulation of money in the state, employment, construction of markets, etc. Mr, Bode Abodunrin said that it is encouraging that northern states are inviting the Igbo traders to come to their state and open up businesses. Some of them are even promising adequate security for the Igbo traders. Mr, Bode Abodunrin particularly warned Lagos state govt to reduce their incessant taxation of the Igbo traders and remove the area boys that go to the Igbo traders to extort money from them in the name taxes and royalty on behalf of the state and local govt. Mr, Bode Abodunrin said no state in Nigeria can sustain their expenditure without Igbo traders IGR impute and advised the states to encourage the traders instead of fighting them. He also cautioned the states indigene to stop antagonizing the Igbo traders and trying to pick a fight with them to loot and destroy their wares because if they go definitely, their business will suffer, but a little. However, the state will suffer, the more because IGR that helps to sustain the economy will reduce while the infrastructural development will also be affected. He also advised the Igbo traders to be law-abiding. 4 Likes |

Ok. We don hear. Will the igbo men also continue to contribute to the IGR of other states when they eventually get their sovereign state of Biafra? If they wanna go now, let dem go. That will make those other states start to develop their skills in business too. I'm not justifying increment in taxes tho. 3 Likes |

The guy is a fraud. He has either been paid some money by a few Igbo traders to write that story, or maybe he has political ambitions and he needs their support in the next election. Until I see the data and numbers, I do not buy his story. He probably wanted to say that they are the highest tax payers in Alaba, Ladipo, Okokomaiko and a few other areas. Even at that, how many traders have documentary evidence to support their tax payment claims? Chukwudi my spare parts seller, does not have anything like that, I'm sure.... 8 Likes |

Igbo people just dey make me laugh I swear The level of desperation and attention seeking is just unreal One Shinedu or Shineye sat down somewhere and named himself Mr Bode Abodunrin The article is baseless, lacks any credibility and just wishful Igbo thinking. No figures for this imaginary contribution apart from the 80% he came up with after drinking onitcha palm wine Igbo and chest beating are like twins 16 Likes 1 Share |

ArodeTsolaye: And what on earth gives you the impression that I don't have a car of my own? I can also give you Chukwudi's phone number in case you want to confirm. Must you use your own carless, 'leggedis-benz' status to judge everybody?? You are the one who lacks a job, in case you don't know. Anyway, I know your first contact with a vehicle, was the Chisco bus that brought you from the village to Lagos. By the way, how old did you say you were again?? 1 Like |

Yoruba will not like this, even when Benue governor lured them to come to their state with incentives, igbo people will leave their place go to China bring it in, send it to kano kaduan kogi etc, thee indigene will come out from their house to buy it. Yoruba will finish school and be carrying files up and down, while his igbo counterpart will be planning to go to China and dubai. A friend of mine in dubai has a yoruba guy with him over there, the igbo guy, sends goods to nigeria the yoruba guy uses his own to buy clothes shoes etc.... Well all these companies in ogun state who distribute their goods? Go to Iyana ipaja where they're selling iron, the companies are in lagos and ogun, but the irons are distributed across nigeria, by these igbo people! You call them tradeer, but if they show you their account you will faint..... 4 Likes |

Yorubas reaping from Igbo drugs and 419 money since 32BC. They keep shouting deportation of biafrans, let me see how they will be able to generate revenue from alaba and the likes. The abokiis in their kiosks don't even know what tax is, talk more of to pay to the yorubas. Biafrans please come join hands to sign our petition. Biafra must be free. http://chn.ge/1kA2V11 2 Likes
