The ultimate
role model, the of all master, Jesus Christ-the king of kings’- mental
intelligence was once tested by the loquacious Pharisees and his views on
paying tax was put to test
They wanted
to know if it is right for men to pay tax or not, they knew the right answer,
but wanted to hear a confirmation or a place in a zigzag parallel line
Not one to
call a spade by marines name, Jesus Christ was emphatic in his revert, He
pointed to them: “PAY WHAT BELONG TO CAESAR, AND PAY WHAT BELONGS TO CHRIST TO
CHRIST “,
that was Christ conclusion
The summary
of this point is that the art of paying of tax is part of being total and
decent in the fragile life we live, and this point was what rising singing
sensation, Juliet Obieh aka African Booboosha have just collaborated, when
asked her advice for the future leaders
or champions of tomorrow
While highlighting
over ten key point, in a soon to be published project work on her by
communications unit, her stand on paying tax by youths’ must be taking seriously,
the younger generation must think of tax tax tax, paying of tax is biblical
·
And to that she
has this to say “Always know that
you will pay your tax either you are a student or not, so you must have the habit of working Part time job, and
ready to give a part of your earnings to
the government, for abroad is not Africa
where we dodge tax indiscriminately, to pay tax is to help Government develop
your city, help fund your education among other benefits “
This is no doubt
big deal business, paying tax is a lifestyle and
booboosha must be commended
for such motivation arising from benefit of tax paying
The Lagos inland
Revenue service (LIRS) the doyen of tax business in Nigerian and currently led
by Executive Chairman, Folarin Ogunsanwo, who must be commended for the efficiency
and dynamism in running a tax body, must find a way to get global young
Nigerians in Diaspora like Booboosha, used to lifestyle of paying tax in
foreign land to come back home and preach the need for all Nigerians youths to
learn art of paying tax
·
Big ups Booboosha

·
Big ups also to
