Irrational decisions. I hope they compensate them.

Compensate for what exactly

LordBiden:
Good one from the ever rugged,fearless and hardworking Nyesom wike.

At least they have being given enough time to do the needful,so nobody should scream witchunt here.

Government needs money to deliver dividends of democracy in fct.

Nigerians are stubborn minded people,we need up to 10 wikes to make it work.

only a small kick will unceal the cealing

Ikumapkayi:
The elites are the problem of Nigeria. How can you owe ground rents for 34 years. They wouldn't try that if they have properties in UK. This is the reason why we need educated people with ''Abgeroism'' mentality to lead us. We don't need people who will just be doing analysis-paralysm. All they speak is grammar no action.

No blame for the agency that didn't do it's job abi
Wetin Dem dey look for a while 34 years

If there's no consequences for people who didn't do their jobs like this , no change should be expected

Where have you been? I missed your memes

Wike is biting more than he can chew. I can bet with my last dime that he won't end well.

Although I do not Wike, the current istration, or any of the politicians vying for power, the truth must still be told.

This is serious. Banks and other businesses bought lands and have been using these lands for years, but they don't want to pay ground rent or tenement rates to the government for occupying and using these lands.

The business in question has been using this land for 34 years and has not paid a dime.

Our government, especially the previous istrations, needs to be blamed for this.

A whole access bank, thank God, i have not put any money into my access . Access bank despite all its grand acquisition within and outside the country, wouldn't pay land rent.

" Compensate" is a new big word to the fellow.

It is not about the agency.
Agencies are doing their bit. It all boils down. to how serious, fearless and ruthless. the minister in charge is.

You're absolutely right, but putting politics aside, how can a company doing business on a piece of land for 34 years without paying the tenement rate or ground rent?

Please explain this to me.

Another typical Nigerian blame game. Must you be told to the right thing? Moreso they were served to pay but decided to ignore it.

If you buy land in Abuja with a C of O, and after 5 years of ownership, a new minister comes in and and reveals that for 35 years the occupants (past and present) of that land have not been paying ground rent. Only the recent 5 years have been paid. Now you must pay for the 35 years that the previous owner(s) defaulted.

How would you feel?

#5m naira × 35 years= N175 million.

How many of the occupants of those lands can afford such?

You guys just read the news and start throwing comments up and down without knowing the deeper issues. Just because you a certain political interest.

When the same problem face you or your family , you hibernate, change your name and start lamenting on the internet against the same wickedness that you once ed.

Nigerians change your wicked ways.

We have all the laws ... enforcement is the problem. The problem is ability and consequences. In this case the bank shouldn't be the main focus ... it should be the agency responsible for collecting the tax. But we don't see any action taken against the head or their executives. Why are they not investigated and held able? Now that the properties have been confiscated ...what next? Would they be auctioned or used for other purposes? This action is normal in the developed world. Consistent enforcement of laws will make a change that many swear is impossible because "we are too stubborn". Wasn't it the same we were swearing about wrong way driving in Lagos?...what happened to the stubbornness after enforcement?

Hmm

Did wike pay any ground rent in the house he lives. Did APC Secretariat pay any rent on their headquarters.

Awon selective policy makers oshi

badoh:
The country cannot get better when the citizens are not ready to comply with rules and regulations. Most of those flouting government directives here cannot try that rubbish in advanced countries because they know the consequences.

Those who flout orders are friends of the government

They give them bogus loans and to win elections in exchange for favors

ppogba:

I agree. That dude Buhari appointed did almost nothing for 8 years

Everybody go die leave the land one day including the Almighty Minister of Federal Republic

youngrichnigga:
PDP HQ will be sealed up to prevent the NWC meeting planned for tomorrow

That’s the main target of the whole exercise, all the comments here praising the actions are paid hacks, bots and ethnic champions on the main ethnic platform of all times the Nairaland

Blackman7:
Very soon BAT would tax us for the air we breathe

So that is why they rented a land and defaulted ba?

Bia, you are shouting tax, are you even employed or have a business at all talkless of you paying tax?

bigpicture001:


Before I can call any governor "good" or working... They must build good decent and affordable houses for the people to rival the private sector and drive down the cost of rent in their state...

Abeg what is so special about government building houses of like 10 story building in blocks and flat..then rent out at low rat of say 4bedroom for 400k..

I mean built multiple houses plenty of it...road is not the only measure to asses a working government...houses is needed also

I concur.
I being at the reception for an outgoing FCT minister and he said his biggest regret was not building low cost houses for the poor.

They always forget.

Anguldi:
PDP will do meeting under Tree

and comrade WIKE will attend also
