Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, on Wednesday criticized Nigerians over non-payment of taxes.
Wike said Nigerians don’t like to pay tax but want to enjoy good infrastructure.
He spoke while inspecting some road projects in the FCT on Wednesday.
“I’m not trying to defend AMAC when it comes to the issue of tax, Nigerians don’t like to pay tax but they can call you all sorts of names when it has to do with taxes.
“However, nobody has given us such a report, if we have such a report we will call AMAC to order because there must be a civilized way to collect taxes.
“But knowing what we experienced too about payment of taxes, it would be difficult for me to say that they are right.
“Nigerians want good infrastructure but don’t want to pay tax. They want everything free in this country.”
