PDP Rejects Decision To Increase VAT, Urges NASS To Protect Nigerians.
The Peoples Democratic Party has condemned and totally rejected the decision by the Federal Government to increase the Value Added Tax from 5% to excruciating 7.2%, saying Nigerians cannot bear such burden under the prevailing agonizing economic situation.
The PDP insists that the decision to increase VAT on already impoverished citizens is in bad faith and cannot be justified under any guise.“Indeed, only an administration that does not have the mandate of the people can seek to adopt such oppressive stance against its citizens. “Our party charges the Buhari Presidency not to further punish Nigerians by imposing harsh tax regime to make up for its crass incompetence and lack of capacity to effectively harness and manage our resources to create wealth for the benefit of the people” PDP stated.
“It is more painful that the Buhari Presidency cannot give account of the huge resources at its disposal, including the taxes it has been collecting in the last four years, most of which are frittered to service the wasteful lifestyle of the cabal at the Presidency and APC chieftains.
