[attorneysweet]

Sensible and insightful argument. It lends credence to the benefits of the proposed law including ensuring economic impartiality, accountability and growth capacity for every state. Senator Henry Seriake Dickson is, unquestionably, a cerebral, down-to-earth detribalized patriot.

[abuattah]

You may not like him but you can't fault his clarity in self expression.

[charlesdove]

The support of this Bill is gathering momentum across all party lines

[valentineanyim]

This tax bill must be passed, there’s nothing wrong with it, the nothern politicians should stop sponsoring insecurity in their states, so as to create enabling environment for investors and production, enough of this monkey working and bamboo eating, every governor of a state should sit up to their responsibilities

[tundeakinbobola]

The Bills will give ahope to many young Nigerians...

[ovalinnocent]

TINIBU should focus on Production and not taxing the hungry people.

[saiduabdul]

We are going nowhere in this country with states wanting failed system to remain... My people fall my hand.

[GgaskiaAta]

I don't think we should call those asking questions about tax reforms stupid or anything like that. Those for and those against, everyone talking, debating, arguing about the tax reforms, gradually clearing doubts and confusion, winning people over, arriving at a consensus, that is exactly how democracy is supposed to work...

[JohnUwaoma-dr]

That's message to the wise from dorotimi.

[EmmanuelKehinde-nz]

The federal government can add some changes to this bill by creating 5 categories in which each state in the federation must fall into not more than one of it ie state with seaport, state with high numbers of population, state that shares land borders with other African nations, state with large landmark, state with little or non economics activities in performance .also 40%for all states as planned while 15% be added together and shares among each states from this category in which a state like lagos or river state for example can only have a single slot from this categories

[EmmanuelKehinde-nz]

While 35%as planned for the local government and 10 %for the federal government, every state in the territory of NIGERIA must surely fall into one of this categorie with this state with less performance in economic activity will not be left behind thanks

[nnadoo]

SE and SS (Eastern region) lawmakers shouldn't be so quick to support the tax reform... Not when the fed govt under Tinubu has been nepotistic in his appointment..The tax reform maybe a good one but it may also has ulterior motive under this fed govt that's headed by one tribe.

Eastern region lawmakers as a matter of fact should give Tinubu conditions to support his bill such as:
1. Viable seaport in the SS region
2. Viable international airport in the SE region
3. Additional state for SE in this case Anioma state.
If none of these conditions is addressed, forget about that tax reform.
Tinubu just wants to make Lagos/SW as the most prosperous state/region in Nigeria if not Africa.

Our lawmakers should stand with Northern lawmakers until the above conditions are met.

This is not about North against the South or vice versa. When Tinubu was appointing his kinsmen and women he never remembered Eastern region.

[angelicakweku]

That means, states where people congregate a lot, like Lagos will have more money!!!
Mean while people live more in those areas because of infrastructure, which some states like Lagos and Abuja got lion's share of infrastructure with resources from areas that are not as developed and there less people and consump
tion !!!

[TheBronzeSage]

"Lobbying" aka share money to us to agree with you. This reeks of covert corruption.

[Superpius]

This man has been fed all his life by government money. His one of Nigeria's problems. You must lobby... Look at his face after saying that.... Lobby means bride 😂😂😂😂

[peterugwoke-gx]

Reform bill is bad, very bad, Lagos hit job against the rest of Nigeria.
1. Car imported through Lagos, how do you know it will end up kaduna or another state.
2. Kwilikwi produced in kaduna how are you sure it will not be consumed in Lagos.
3. Commercial vehicles imported into Nigeria through Lagos but transporting people btw Lagos and kaduna, who do you assign the VAT.
4. What stop companies from manipulating the point of consumption of their products.
5. This bill can never be justly implemented.

[victorobong]

No body like the face of a tax collector

[dr.otodoransometv]

Tinubu has hever been trust worthy ....i know there are sinister interests in the bill...i really dnt like your guest anyway for how he ruined Bayelsa state...

[darrenjones]

Believe any bill coming from the TINUBU administration is for the benifit of Nigerians at your own risk 😂

[LassygreenFishFarmLTD]

Who dose that taking ur resources and also tax supposed paid to bayasa state are paid to Lagos state, shehu you insult him well bayasa are really kaikai drunkers 😂😂😂
