Dogara Questions Northern Leaders Challenging Tinubu's Tax Reform Bills

[@maduabuchinelson6580]

Wow! Not sure I've listened to a more eloquent speech from a Nigerian leader in recent times, except osibanjo and dimeji bankole. So extemporaneously delivered!

[@Paul-lg4gg]

Dogara ,Dogara, thank you for the lecturing. I learnt something about time today that I must implement now to improve my life.

[@femiolatunji7890]

I would like to congratulate the management of channels tv for this wonderful public engagement. This is why I prefer channels tv to some “Pseudo political tv stations” where biased and negative subjective opinions are celebrated and venerated. Kudos to channels tv. Not liking Tinubu does not make all his policies evil as some media houses will have us erroneously believe

[@akeemogunkoya8920]

Here is someone approaching the issue of tax reform with an open mind, free from bias and political partisanship. Despite his disagreements with the President during the pre-election period, Dogara demonstrates remarkable intelligence. This is my first time listening to him, and I am truly impressed.

[@ezenwagolden]

Thank God, there's still right thinking person in the North. I am impressed by his submissions❤❤❤

[@mikeobasi9177]

Dogara is always a man of wisdom and I always admire his logical contribution to important national issues. How many of these noise makers opposing the tax reform can present logical arguments and statistics to support their opinions like Yakubu dogara has eloquently presented here? Please, discuss logical issues, not emotions and baseless sentiments, period.

[@kunleoshin]

Am so impressed with dogara

[@wcwelcomecentury6082]

I am so elated

Q😊

[@opeyemiajayi851]

WHAT IS IN THE TAX REFORM... 1. Any business with less than N50million turnover are exempted from tax payment. 2. over 90% of workers in public and private sector will no longer pay income tax 3. Over 82% of what low income persons consume will be VAT free. 4. scrapping over 50 nuisance tax suffered by local businesses 5. VAT will no longer be calculated base on where the companies have their headquarters but where their goods are consume 6. the rich to pay more tax while the poor will stop paying taxes.. 7. Consumption tax collected by states will be eliminated completely 8. FG share of VAT to reduce from 15% to 10% as states and LGAs now get 90% 9. Those earning less than N1.7m monthly will now pay less income tax 10. Customs, NUPRC and other govt agencies will no longer collect tax as only one Agency will be responsible for collection of all taxes in NGR 11. Those receiving less than N9million per anum could have their income tax cut by half 12. The bill could lead to abolition of other multiple tax laws like the stamp duty act 13. Over 90% of small business would no longer pay profit tax 14. Gradual increase of VAT from 10% in 2025 to 15% in 2030... With almost every goods consume by low income earners exempted from VAT 15. Many NGR companies pay over 60 types of different tax & levies... The bill seeks to end this factor killing NGR industries.

Tinubu is just too intelligent!. Majority of the Northern Leaders needs to go back to school. Awesome presentation by RT. Hon Dongara, well done sir👍.

[@johnokereke2318]

Paying the tax isn’t the problem, my problem is will this present APC government use the tax gotten for the people or themselves??

[@uogbue]

This your so call tax reform is ambiguous and can be implemented in any which way the enforcer wish. The problem in Nigeria is the law but the institutions applying and enforcing the law. The northerners knows this because they the most experienced politicians in Nigeria. They understand that trust is a very huge commodity in Nigeria politics. They understand that it is better not to create the ambiguity for a crook to institutionalise corruption and perpetuate permanent stealing of the public wealth just it’s happening in some states.

[@GgaskiaAta]

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

[@onyiimale]

This man is a good communicator. I like him .

[@yusufsaleadamu6032]

Dogara have said it all, it is high time we keep the politics of regionalism and ethnicity, if at all we want to move as a nation.

[@jonathanokolie009]

This speech by dogara is unarguably the most sacred, well-refined and patriotic speech given by a northerner that resembles those made by our forefathers in the early days of our sojourn as a nation . It is completely devoid of sectional sentiments. It is truly pure leadership on display! Big kudos to him once again! 💯💯💯❤️❤️❤️

I never knew that this man, Dogara, is as intelligent and full of wisdom like this! In fact, he made my day the way he spoke. I think the northern leaders would have a rethink for speaking against the tax reforms, because it's a laudable initiative in the right direction.

[@sirrainbow1672]

Dogara is a true leaders that has the interest of the people in the north in mind. He is direct and speaks the truth. The north cannot continue think that they deserved to be pitied in certain matter. The leaders and politicians and traditional rulers need to wake and face the reality across the globe. The insecurity in the north is part of the draw back in the north today because the region has come a long way to produce eloquent and highly educated and business giants that they ought to be proud of. It will take the elites to educate the masses on this Tax Reform Bill as Hon Dogara and the Nasarawa governor has demonstrated on this program. Discussions should be done in all the major languages in Nigeria as already affirmed by the chairman of the tax reform committee.

[@Terratiger]

Wow. I am impressed with Yakubu Dogara. He should have been Tinubu's Deputy but....Wow. He definitely gives me hope in the future of Nigeria's political leadership. Impressive!

Yes, indeed. Thank you Mr. Yakubu Dogara. The most endowed part of Nigeria is Northern Nigeria. The vast arabe land and good weather are more than blessing. The do nothing government of PMB was there for 8 calendar Years looking for grazing route. And the corruption lovin Northern ruling elites were busy helping themselves with the treasury of our common patrimony. Sharing oil wells to themselves. You see why we.need complete restructuring. The next is the state or regional policing. Enougj is enough.
