Immediately I saw the news beggers would start paying tax, I knew Federal Government was ready to impose tax on everyone and also made sure it is paid.
With this new ideology, Begging has been categorized as a profession which means the people in this business have to seriously improve their begging skills, probably we would get to see "Begging Schools" that will be about teaching people how to beg and get paid.The theme is If you don't pay tax no begging.
I see beggers forming a coalition and you might get to hear Nigeria Beggers Society or Beggers Association of Nigeria because begging as been branded a profession.
While I believe Federal Government is right about these beggars been mega rich than those that work hard 24/7, what do we have to say of those that are handicap and really have to beg before they can eat, will the Government tax these ones?
I am not promoting begging but if the Government can only tax those who are able bodied and sound in mind but still resort to begging.
With this, I believe our Religious Houses will be next?
