The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has criticized Nigerians over what he described as widespread reluctance to pay taxes.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

Wike said many Nigerians expect quality infrastructure while avoiding their tax responsibilities.

He made the remarks on Wednesday during an inspection of ongoing road projects in the FCT.

According to him, some citizens are quick to criticize tax authorities but are unwilling to contribute through tax payments.

“I’m not trying to defend AMAC when it comes to the issue of tax. Nigerians don’t like to pay tax, but they can call you all sorts of names when it has to do with taxes.

“However, nobody has given us such a report. If we have such a report, we will call AMAC to order because there must be a civilized way to collect taxes.

“But knowing what we have experienced with tax payments, it would be difficult for me to say they are right.

“Nigerians want good infrastructure but don’t want to pay tax. They want everything free in this country,” he said.
