NAPS Leadership Caution Presidential Committee on Fiscal Policy and Tax Reforms.

Solidarity Greetings From National Association of Polytechnic Students ( NAPS) Southwest Zone, Comrade Oyewumi Festus the NAPS PRO Southwest Zone frown on the hardship in the Country and lack of good ideas by President Committee on Fiscal Policy and Tax Reforms.

 

NAPS Leadership Caution Presidential Committee on Fiscal Policy and Tax Reforms.

It’s in the news on the Proposed Move by the Presidential Committee on Fiscal Policy and Tax Reforms to increase Vat to 10%, this move is lack of sensitivity from the hardship that is currently destroying the land and the Citizens, we are made to understand that Tax Reforms Committee was set up by the President to undertaken the improvement and Efficiency of Tax administration and to Maximize the Economic and Social benefits that can be achieved through the tax System,
the key objectives of the Committee’s work include:

Harmonization of multiple taxes and levies at all levels of government to a few that are broad based and easy to administer

Unification of revenue collection functions into single agency per level of government as much as possible

Modernisation and simplification of the tax system including the use of technology for revenue administration

Leveraging on data for intelligence to curb evasion and aggressive tax avoidance

Remove tax provisions which serve as impediments to business and economic growth

Devise structures and
framework to institutionalise reforms for effective policy coordination and collaboration among government agencies and tiers of government
Improve efficiency of revenue collection and transparent reporting

Ensure effective utilisation of tax and other revenues for social good to boost citizens’ tax morale, promote tax culture and drive voluntary compliance

Transform revenue generation for sustainable development to achieve at least 18% Tax to GDP ratio within the next 3 years, that is, by 2026, instead of going in this direction to bring succor to the Citizens of the Country and bring Comfort to the People by proper Administration of Tax, the Tax Reforms has decided to be insensitive to the hardship in the Land.

The Purported Increament of the Vat to 10% shouldn’t be consider for any reason, we are calling on President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu to dissolve this Committee and Re appoint another Set of Experts if they lack ideas on the Mandate given to them by the President.

We are of Opinion that if the Tax Reforms Committee go ahead to increase the Vat,NAPS Leadership will not hesitate to lockdown the whole Taxation System ranging from Headquarters of Federal Inland Revenue Services,(FIRS) and other bodies.

The NNPC has gone Mad again by increasing the Fuel Price to 850 and Tax Reforms Committee is also trying to inflicting pains on Nigeria Citizens, we say no to all this Policies and Increament…

President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, should do something now on the issue of NNPC and Tax Reforms Committee before Nigerian Polytechnic Students will match to the street in Millions across the Country.

Enough of this Punishment from the Federal Government, we say no to wickedness.

Until Nigerians are Comfortable…Aluta Continua.

Comrade Oyewumi Festus

Dr. Chris Okafor invokes divine retribution upon individuals blackmailing the Grace Nation church

Dr. Chris Okafor invokes divine retribution upon individuals blackmailing the Grace Nation church

… Affirming God’s omnipotence to unveil malicious schemes.

To be frank, the ability of Doris Ogala and her associates to withstand the arduous challenges set by Senior Pastor Dr. Chris Okafor of Grace Nation Global at the culmination of the Harvest of Babies 2026 conference, the church’s flagship event, continues to elude me.

It’s advisable not to offend a powerful spiritual leader like Prophet Chris Okafor to avoid potential consequences, as seen in the situation with Doris Ogala, who was rebuked by the prophet; can she rectify the situation through confession?

Insiders close to the man of God claim that despite relentless online bullying and blackmailing, the Generational Prophet remains resolute, stating that God’s power has been evident throughout the commission’s existence. The reason for this wonderful statement is found in the scriptures, “Upon this rock I shall build my Church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail.” The more falsehoods are spread about the church and its leader, the more God elevates the church and propels him to greater heights, he asserted. He emphasized that blessings and fruitfulness are antidotes to curses, noting that God continues to bestow blessings upon the church, including miracles and the gift of children, which is one reason for the grand finale of the annual family liberation program, The Harvest of Babies.

However, the man of God issued a curse on each person speaking ill of the church, blackmailing, and uttering all sorts of falsehoods against the church, declaring that if they refused to repent within a few days, the earth would swallow them and their family members, stating that they would be of no use to themselves, their families, or society at large.

The spiritual leader cautions his followers to beware of such individuals including Doris Ogala who may taint their faith, and urges them to treat these persons as emissaries of the devil, avoiding them altogether.

Recall that the 2026 harvest of babies concluded with a remarkable birth of a miracle baby boy to a woman on the third day of the conference, accompanied by the dedication of several other miracle babies, all to the glory of God.
