RE: Low Socioeconomic Status in Nigeria, Health and Fitness

in StemSocial10 months ago

I can't even open my mouth to start talking about this country called Nigeria because it's just as if one day everything will just vanish and nothing can change. It really sad to see all this suffering and the worst is the leader's are not helping

Sort:  

Nigeria is a very scary place. The scariest of all is the fact that a lot of us don't realise we pay taxes. We think that it is an American or UK thing. In fact, for a long time, we have celebrated that we don't have to deal with it.

Even before subsidy removal, we had been paying taxes for every product we use. The companies that produce these things need to import parts of it and whenever they do, they get taxed. When they pay tax to the government they impose it on the people.

Now they are making things worse by increasing taxes that people have to pay as they've taken away fuel subsidy.

I mean it's really terrible but we will still survive no matter what. I will continue to pray for my country
