Nawa o! Nigerians should get ready for VAT increase- Fowler



Federal Inland Revenue Services (FIRS) has on Tuesday added to the suffering of  Nigerians by increasing Value Added Tax (VAT).

Presently, Value Added Tax (VAT) is 5 percent.

From the statement made the chairman of FIRS, Mr Babatunde Fowler, Nigeria taxing will spring from between 6.2 to 7.2%.

I wonder how Nigerians could cope with this, in this present economic inballance.

Well, most Nigerians will tell you that this present government do not care about the hardship they are passing through.

If you look at the statement made by Mr Fowler, "FIRS is trying to meet it's 2019 revenue generation target of N8 trillion, there is an aorta of truth in what Nigerians are assuming.

Though the agency is looking at the N30,000 minimum wage approval by the senate to Federal and states Nigerian workers, with this present economic status, this is not obtainable.

Lies! This man died since 2012- LEDAP

News circulated last week about one Mr Olatunji Olaide, who was imprisoned for 24 years, for a crime he never committed, by the leader of the Joint Legal action Aids(JLAA), Kinsley Ughe. Well an NGO, Legal Defence And Assistance Project (LEDAP), has refuted the claim, revealing that Mr Olaide died in 2012, shortly after he was released, and that no one should make any cash donation on his behalf. They have these to say; Our attention has been drawn to the fraudulent reports circulating on social media platforms requesting for cash donations from the members of the public to assist Olatunji Olaide who spent twenty four years in prison for an offence he never committed. We were also notified that one Mr. Kingsley Ughe, the Chief Lawyer of Joint Legal Action Aid claimed to have represented Mr. Olatunji Olaide at the Court of Appeal on his conviction for murder. This information is a gross misrepresentation of facts. Late Olatunji Olaide was convicted by Honourable Justice A. O.

Foreign based Nigerian big boy, Dharmie Richie threatened to expose that Hushpuppi is living a fake life. According to Dharmie Richie, the Dubai based self acclaimed Gucci king, lives a fake life, and is always borrowing money to buy common recharge cards. Though Hushpuppy dished out claims that he is not rich, after his former friends, Mompha and Cubana Chief priest, claimed that Bentley Bentayga and Rolls Royce, bought by Hushpuppy were all rented cars, Dharmie Richie, threatening to expose Hushpuppy over his fake lifestyle, will likely make people conclude that yes, Hushpuppy is a fake guy.
