The VAT rate was raised in Nigeria from five percent to 7.5 percent in 2020.

The Katsina State governor, Aminu Bello Masari, has lampooned his colleagues agitating for collection of Value Added Tax by individual states, describing the move as a joke. Consumers pay VAT when they purchase goods or obtain services. All goods and services are taxable except those specifically exempted by the VAT Act.VAT collection by the Federal Inland Revenue Service on behalf of the Nigerian government has been a subject of controversy.

“First of all, this issue is before the Court of Appeal for determination, so I will not comment directly on it, but I will give you a scenario,” the governor said.“What is Lagos without the rest of Nigeria? The market Lagos is boasting of is dependent on the larger part of the country.

No problem Sir, but however this money is going to be paid back these states should also be left out of it, that's the new agenda we're about to push now, na do me i do u. Any new increase in tax or vat would be shared only amongst the beneficiaries of this new loan, thank you.

Northerners want to be spoon fed, am happy the southern governors are seriously taking their stand on the VAT and Anti-grazing law

If you're collecting VAT from the millions you pay to bandit businessmen, you'll experience an increase in your VAT collection.

Northers are asking for their share of the VAT but destroyed beer and alcoholic beverages that also generates VAT for Rivers and Lagos.

If they are jokers then come and collect it yourself thief your days are numbered just as vat

Boko Haram commander

The southern part of the country attracted your acclaimed ppl migrating from other part of the country due to a better governance in the south preferably to yours, even if its not the best. Then work on yourself instead of all this... Fake hope u are giving yourself.

Aside people calling him a moron and imbecile, looking at his face, you will see that he is suffering from a chronic pile. Omo ale jatijati, u made Lagos what it is but destroying ur own with banditry. No notherner will agree if they are d one generating higher than the south.

It will help to end terrorism in Nigeria because each state will like to protect his or her investors,with maximum security to protect life and properties they will not allow Bandits and other terrorists group to destroy his state investors and others.

Why is Masari choking over this VAT issue that is already before the Supreme Court? Why not start gathering Technocrats on how Katsina & it's broders can generate its own VAT & quit the Lagos or Rivers VAT that has ALCOHOL & PORK SAUSAGES CHARGES IN IT? Masari 👇🏿

If they are joker,he's what?

Because the North is parasite

There's no wahala, we shall see. The entire joke would be on you very soon.

He must learn how to generate revenue from alcohol and respect the consumer's

Mr man why?

See Imagine the irresponsible statement from the poor shallow mind

No one takes this beer palour governor seriously na.

Governor Masari must understand it's done by the books, not sentiments or emotion. The days of communist governance has been replaced by true Federalism. This land must be saved.

E be like they don buy battery for your remote again, suffering and smiling governors.

Mr. Governor Massari, you better put on your God given thinking cap and create wealth for your state. The Southern Governors have woken up to use any money collected from their peoples to provide good roads and other services.Sorry there no more free laugh for the lazy person.

Honestly this people are calling for hummmm. U destroy beer, and u want to collect tax from beer... Pls go and collect tax on cows.. See u northerners no get madness 4 head ooo, don't let ur leaders push, I beg.... Those leaders want to control u people with poor remote control..

🤡 clown 🤣

Can this fool define equity and justice?

I believe sooner or later the eyes of every person in Nigeria will open then they will understand that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB mean well to all.

Those who insist on carrying the lowest cut of marks in all exams and still insist on destructively running EFCC, NNPC, Customs, all public offices available including ruling Nigeria forever are jokers. Same goes for those who destroy beer & hotels but want tax from them. Jokers!

Who's joking is a matter of time. This is 21st century men

Illiterate! Since 2weeks ago, it's now you understood what collection of VAT meant... Shaybi you dey carry your revenue pay bandits, bastard!

Each state should think out of the box on how to reduce their own unemployment stat..stop dependency..

The feeding bottle system of Governance that encourages brain dead individuals to come in and LOOT is about to DIE a NATURAL DEATH Sir. So like seriously, jokes apart because this will encourage ONLY the lively and brilliant minds to run for offices in Nigeria base on WORKNCHOP.

iamjaybanks South North Let's dialogue. ✓ X State police. ✓ X Restructure. ✓ X Autonomy. ✓ X Electronic voting ✓ X Still surprised we are stagnated?

It's really paining them

Na small things like this de make us know who love Naija and who no love us ... See now states Wei de produce the money don talk and other states de panick. If u are a state governor why not create means to get ur own funds. Naija open eyes the era of slow acts is over

Says the parrot

This man suppose to be sue for this statement, what is governments doing on this issue

The political leaders in Nigeria need to learn how to respect opinions of others, even when they are different

Empty vessels ranting

CONFROM OGUN KILL YOU

Aboki

The lazy is attacking the diligent for being diligent and aspiring to become even more independent àňd economically viable. Monkey dey work baboon dey chop mentality

Collect on your own state VAT

Lol...what do u expect from lazy fools who sit in one corner and expect to be feed by everyone...

Can a lay man explain to this gov, how can you be earning more than you produce, is it not financial fraud. EFCC alert

Because you receive what you don't deserve you're lazy and needs to go back and work hard and collect your own VAT. KeepitOn

Sir u are mad

See his face like masquerade

Dismantle and jettison the old for their counsel is corrupted

This man wants devolution of power on terms of security among other things but still want to be begging the federal government for funding how then are you independent?

Shameless fools

Work for your state, don't expect other states to work for you

Oya now let them come on, let’s see who will win

Will you control your state and control others too? You are too small for that.

How many businesses have u attract to ur state since u became a governor? The only company u have been able to attract Mr lazy governor is bandits corporation that u pay for 100k monthly. How much are doctors paid in ur state? What have u done to make ur state competitive?

That's their way ole

Stop complaining and start acting

Eiyah...... Sharia governor dey fight for alcohol money........😂😂

No matter how hard Northerners try to deny, disguise, conceal or hide it eventually the blatant over dependency of Northerners on the resources of Southern Nigeria for their economic survival will be exposed. No wonder northerners insist on One Nigeria at whatever cost even blood

mugu

These people have held other regions on their balls That is how bad the country is now A big fraud

Bandits enabler

Parasite

Jokers! Haha, I see ur eyes are now beginning to open. So u actually want to continue cheating other states, thereby collecting VAT generally so u can use it for bandits, heldsmen and bokoharam abi. Nonsense.

Use your numbers and collect tax, politics is a game of number. Ndị uchu

Old Ode oshi

Instead of you to tap into your natural endowed resources, you are looking to profit where you didn't sow. What stops you from taxing sale of cows and agricultural products coming to the south. You can even make more money than the shameful VAT your are fighting to keep.

We shall see

Different powerful people in the North i laughed 🤣 😂 😆 😂 🤣 mad people everywhere

Can't ranches generate VAT?

Quota system brains alwys looking for hand outs. I don't know how some people will just sit back and accept to be treated like brain handicapped citizens in the name of quota system, I DON'T KNOW HOW. Eye go clear one day, shey restructuring don dey happen for our eye small small

Bastard you no go face banditry wey dey your front.

When some people are used to free meals from the imbalance federation of Nigeria, they thinks it must last forever and some of them still think Nigeria as a country belongs to them

Masari have lost touch with reality

They eat free oil money, eat free port money, e don over sweet them to the extent they became so lazy. Why won't they rant.

they are gradually being reduced to nothing.

the way these northerners speak whenever the southerners make their demands or decision make wonder if they see south as conquered territory they forgot that south have right to say they are no longer interested in the union because they feel insecured or marginalize then move on

He is the real joker here, he has forgotten that he can not eat his cake and have it at the same time, ban alcohol and want to be spending money generated from alcohol from other states that did not ban alcohol.

I trust Wike

Imagine

Do u see y Nigeria need total ovahaul
