over N1billion is spent monthly on entertainment in Lagos
You know really? aint no party like the Lagos party and when it comes to entertainment Lagos is sure setting the pace by spending over N1bn monthly.
According to the Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Mr. Ademorin Kuye made this known on Friday. He said:
“Over N1billion is spent monthly in Lagos state on entertainment and parties, we have the records to confirm this and these people, how many of them pay tax? The money goes into drinks, wine, food, aso-ebi and all of that and when they spend all of this money; they do not want to pay anything to the government”
"This justified the reason why local Governments demand that anyone organising events in the state must pay the Merriment Tax.”
“There is merriment tax in that constitution, its part of the rate Local Governments can collect. We have not fully utilised the benefit of the entertainment industry in this state”.
Looks like the Lagos state government is trying to introduce merriment/party tax? and the question that comes to my mind is how does this work?please share what you feel about this.........
