geesilver: In Nigeria of today, Yorubas mean what they say and say what they mean. They don't throw tantrums to then have ulterior motives or a hidden agenda like some. Also, Yorubas genuinely love and care for each other beyond politics. Our leaders are corrupt too but what has now forged this unity in us is the suffering visited on innocent Yorubas ,in their own land, by Fulani bandits , that we are aware has been abetted by federal might and an ethno-religious agenda. It sparked a "never again" reality in us we are now acting on. Nobody should treat Yorubas that way. That anger is in all conscientious and aware Yorubas today. We know our worth to understand we put into Nigeria far more than we get out and don't deserve this treatment, causing the destruction of Yoruba lives and property, because of 'one Nigeria'. Forget the center and the Presidency. We still want those but they are secondary because we now understand they are the deserved rewards for a people who are the lifeblood of Nigeria and do the right things all the time, far more than others, to keep the peace and maintain the wellbeing of our nation while others act up always like selfish and destructive toddlers. Our main priority now is to control our own security, developmental direction and socio-economic fate more independently because we are seeing that, for advantages we Yorubas possess and for what we are about, that could be worth far more than controlling the center and the Presidency. With a holistically restructured Nigeria, where everyone can develop at their own pace, who would need the center or the Presidency? The SW would no longer dream because the dream can become reality. For example, electricity could be 24/7 and 365 days a year for the first time in the history of Nigeria post independence for all parts of Yoruba land. Yorubas have simply woken up to the future ahead of all others. Thanks to Fulani myopia and desperation for gluttony, retention of a redundant status quo and feudal wealth/power grab for themselves at the expense of others. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Onepeople: If your leaders in the SE, or even ordinary people, do the mature, right, progressive and adult things all the time, as Yorubas do, then perhaps you would be taken seriously in an ethnically, culturally, sectionally and religiously diverse nation. Northerners hardly do the right things ever but they have to be carried along because of the advantages they gave themselves to always remain relevant to the political direction of this nation i.e fake population figures and greater number of states which translates into more Senators and reps etal. They took advantage of the "majority carries the day " cornerstone of democracy. Igbos don't have that luxury. What would have stood you in good stead in the eyes of the world would have been consistently mature,unifying, bridge-building progressive and peaceful behaviour. Qualities you Igbos have never had but would rather deride as "cowardice" in others. 2 Likes |

AroleOduduwa2:And you are feeling yourself a political analyst with this childish talk? Which of the SE leaders are you more sensible than? Why are you not also wondering why their reps have not moved a motion for the actualization of Biafra? Politics is not only about making noise and giving your opinion on a matter you think you know better. There's is time for everything. When the time matures for an Igbo president, nothing will stop it. Even your morbid fear for an Igbo presidency would not. BTW, must you clone another's moniker? 1 Like |

tysontim: By residency rule, where the workers are is where they pay to. In the case of oil companies, most of the workers at the top management level live in Lagos while those at the lower level are in Bayelsa state. This explains why the large chunk of the PAYE goes to Lagos. |

tysontim:This is an ignorant statement, employees income tax is not paid based on the head quarters of a company or where oil is being extracted. PAYE is paid based on the state the employee is based or where the employee resides. Bayelsa will received income tax for those that live in Bayelsa. |

Yes, it's time for all these mushroom states and Local government Areas in the North to shut down. They have cheated people enough with that. A street of 300 inhabitants is a local government just to milk our common resources while in the other regions, one local government is made up of more than 2 million people.

Yes, Wike started the VAT thing but are the south-south states fronting a common collective struggle in this fight like you've seen in the southwest? Besides, it was even Akeredolu of Ondo state that started this whole eye-opening confrontation with the federal government. 3 Likes |

harjay1986:[b][/b] Let's see it this way sir. You're a producer of chocolate bars and your corporate office is in Lagos due to nearness to the market. However, your production plant is in Ondo state due to proximity to raw material and cheap labour. The scenario painted above is exactly what happens in the case of IOC companies. Let's now ask ourselves if it is right for the company who situated its headquarters in Lagos for strategic reasons should pay tax to Ondo state because their production factory and raw materials comes from there or they should pay tax to the state that houses their corporate presence. In my opinion, Ondo state can only lay claim to tenament rate and the income tax of those workers within her territory while Lagos have every right to collect tax on whatever the company declared as profit because that's where the market is. To buttress this point, companies in Lagos whose staff live in Ibafo, Mowe, Agbara and other Ogun state communities but journey down to Lagos everyday to work, those companies do not pay income tax of those employees to Lagos state government. I know this for a fact. They only pay income tax of those who live in Lagos to the Lagos state government and this has been on for a very long time. This same argument goes for the case of the IOCs. They're only entitle to pay income tax of their staffs who work on the upstream or downstream to their state of residence and nothing else. In as much as their head office continue to remain in Lagos, it is 100% legal for them to pay their taxes to Lagos state government. |
