Hardship: I Expect Youths To Storm Streets For Protest - Amaechi

The former governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi said he expected youths to storm different streets and protest against the high cost of living but he has not seen anything that shows that they are serious.

“People should be angry because you cannot see a group of people stealing your money without doing anything. I am really angry with the citizens because they are not doing anything.

“Look at what happened in Edo State, should any politician be campaigning in Edo State? See, some of us cannot afford to buy diesel again because it’s costly,” he said.

Amaechi served as the Minister of Transportation for nearly eight years during the immediate past administration of Muhammadu Buhari.

Corpses litter council offices as violence escalates in Rivers state

Violence has escalated dramatically across Rivers State, with reports of corpses now littering the premises of local government offices in Ikwerre and Ahoada East LGAs.

The unrest, which initially began as protests over the recent local government elections, has taken a deadly turn as armed groups clashed around the council offices.

Videos circulating online show graphic scenes of bodies around the council secretariats, a disturbing development following the rejection of newly sworn-in chairmen by supporters of former Governor Nyesom Wike.

The factions have continued to challenge the legitimacy of the local government elections conducted by the Rivers State Independent Electoral Commission (RSIEC).

Authorities are yet to release an official death toll, but the violence appears to be spreading across other areas, with gunfire reported at multiple locations.

Nigeria introduces bill mandating Tax ID for finance professionals to operate bank accounts According to its provisions, financial professionals must provide a TIN before operating accounts, ensuring they are properly registered for tax purposes. Non-resident individuals who earn only passive income from investments in Nigeria are exempt from this requirement but must submit relevant information to tax authorities. The bill grants tax authorities the power to automatically register individuals who fail to apply for a TIN and notify them of their registration. By automatically issuing TINs to individuals who fail to register, tax authorities aim to close gaps that have historically enabled tax evasion. This automatic registration will simplify the process for both the government and citizens, reducing bureaucratic delays and ensuring that individuals are compliant without needing to take extra steps to register manually. Penalties for non-compliance include a fine of N50,000 for the first month and N25,000 for each subsequent month of failure to register.
