The northern states have been benefiting from revenue generated by Southern states. Let go back to Regional System of Government,so that all the regions can develop their regions
How can the north reject the Vat bill? They are aware that they are the clog in the wheel of our progress in this country. How can a region that brings nothing on the table collect the highest allocation, determine who become president, introduce sharia law, prohibit alcohol sell and consumption says the won't pay tax? Let them make it compulsory that if you are not tax compliant, you will not vote in Nigeria. Paying tax is essential ingredient for being a qualify citizen anywhere in the world. They must pay TAX!!
When Ojukwu said this will happen in the 1960s, it led to civil war. Till this day the Igbos are hated for the same reason. Now, we are seeing it happening like a prophesy coming true. All what some regions do is leech off others sweat.
Irresponsibility at the highest level.. what have be done to empower their people and make the state raise its own wealth (nothing).. reason looting is highest in the north administration, everything is federal concern yet you preach, you love your people
