Friends, we give praise and glory to God for the success of last Sunday's Back to School Welfare 3.0 in honour and memory of our beloved Deaconess Rosemary Orji who embodied all our Christian Social Responsibility (CSR) aspirations and was a pillar of support to our welfare projects before her call to glory. By the grace of God, till date we have handed out over 1,000 packs of School items to kids drawn from within the church and its environs. Indeed, last Sunday was A NEW EXPERIENCE as it opened our eyes to the fact that many of the beneficiaries cannot resume school with their colleagues because their parents cannot afford their school fees, it's so disheartening that some have even dropped out of School for two years or more, to this effect, by the grace of God, we will have the 2nd phase of this project next Sunday, 19th September, 2021 specifically to address School Fees for kids whose parents cannot afford it. I enjoin us all to partner with us on this 2nd Phase by reaching out to our Head of Christian Social Responsibility (CSR) Bro. Femi Salawu (0806-277-5076) or send in your donations to account details below (Please add remark Back to School ) RCCG Covenant Centre (Welfare) - 4110092154 - Fidelity Bank PLC God bless and reward your labour of love as we put smile on the faces of the children once again!

BABATUNDE FOWLER: THE INDESTRUCTIBLE RECORDS OF A DUTIFUL TAX COLLECTOR

By Godspower Oshodin & Seunmanuel Faleye Notwithstanding recent orchestrated media trials and allegations lacking merit hauled at the administration of Tunde Fowler, the Executive Chairman, Federal Inland Revenue Service, Fowler’s records in revamping the nation’s tax collection system, remains indestructible in the court of public opinion and fact. Recently, on account of the abuse of the Duty Tour Allowance DTA, by some officials of the tax agency and the invitation of such officials by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, some hack writers have voted to stand truth on the head by hauling all manners of lies and unsubstantiated allegations at Fowler. Until his screening and appointment as the substantive chairman of the agency in December 2015, by the Red Chambers under the Muhammadu Buhari government, FIRS since 2012, did not have a substantive head, thereby making tax collection and revenue aggregation in the country simply average. Whatever the tantrums that creeping seditionists could throw at Fowler, in order to soil his public reputation and deface his incredible scorecard in public service is dead on arrival. It is simply laughable, to attempt to enmesh a man of proven competence, character and capacity like Fowler in such sham tales as financial misappropriation, money wiring to proxies and car gift purchase to girlfriend. Frankly, the shame is certainly on rumour mongers. Fowler is noble enough to reckon that investigation by another agency, an independent agency, this time the EFCC, helps the integrity of the entire findings: Staff should not investigate staff, he once noted. Its in fidelity to the ageless dictum: don’t be a judge in your own case. Apart, from the apparent fact that these stories –by day old websites- are premised on lies and fabrications, the public who have kept tabs on Fowler’s antecedents, especially from his days as Chief Executive Officer of Lagos State Internal Revenue Service, LIRS between 2005 to 2015 know better. Despite the prevalent recession ravaging the country in 2015 when he was appointed, the agency under his watch generated N3.3 trillion in 2016. The following year, FIRS witnessed a 20 percent increase in collection margin, to generate N4.03 trillion in 2017. Monday, January 7, 2019, FIRS disclosed that it generated about N5.320 trillion in 2018, the preceding year. This record thumbs Fowler as an history maker, leading the agency to set a new record of highest revenue generation FIRS as against the 2012 record of N5.07 trillion. The agency shows promises of improvement in the years ahead; as the FIRS boss has tipped that his target revenue haul for 2019 has been benchmarked at about 8 trillion naira. All of this with oil doing between $60 and $70 dollars. Oil was between $100 an $120 dollars in the N4/5 trillion collection years of 2012/2013. And Fowler is not just increasing collection. There is some style and definitive character to the growing tax figures: oil collection of the N5.320 trillion is N2,467 trillion (46.38 per cent), while non-oil is N2.852 trillion (53.62) per cent. For all of nation’s tax history, oil collection had always dominated non-oil collection. Moral: Fowler is pointing the way that it is possible that Nigeria is weaned of its dangerous dependence on mono product: oil. For ignorant propagandists who failed to understand the workings of an agency like FIRS, before circulating tales of taxpayers’ money gone missing, their attention must be drawn to a few basic facts. No tax is paid directly to Fowler’s account, or that of FIRS at that. Taxes are paid into the Federation Account through the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN. The agency’s operations are funded by an appropriation of the National Assembly through monthly remittances by the Federation Accounts Allocation Committee, FAAC. Fowler initiated the deployment of ICT to enable taxpayers pay taxes from anywhere around the world, even from the comfort of their homes. With the e-payment channels-deployed about two years ago- tax payers can pay taxes, file returns online, pay Stamp Duties, obtain their Withholding Tax Credit Notes, download receipts online. Taxpayers can also e-Register and obtain that all powerful document: Tax Clearance Certificate, TCC online, without going to wait at a tax office as was the case in the past. The FIRS is automating the collection of Value Added Tax (VAT) in key sectors to facilitate reduction in compliance costs in the long term, apart from system to system integration between banks and the Service. This is yielding fruits: in 2018, VAT crossed the N1 trillion mark. Furthermore, before they peddle stories of misappropriation, there is the Government Integrated Financial Management Information System (GIFMIS), which links FIRS to the Office of the Accountant General of the Federation OAGF for real-time exchange of information and data. What this does amongst others is that it gives the FIRS and the Office of the Accountant General of the Federation, bird’s view of taxes paid by all Federal Government Ministries, Department and Agencies, MDAs. It also allows FIRS to ascertain which agency of government is complying on tax payment and which one is not. Plus, it gives MDAs to the minute data about the tax status of companies who are doing business with the Federal Government. This institutes verifiable data, transparency, checks and balances. Since Fowler made it easier to request for and process Tax Clearance Certificate (TCC) through FIRS online portal, from the comforts of the home, about 60,000 tax payers took advantage of this online channel in 2018 alone, up from 9574 Nigerians who collected their TCC online in 2017. Under the tax amnesty program initiated in 2016, over 3000 applications for waiver of interest and penalties were attracted, resulting in payment of over N68 billion, out of about N96.2 billion liability established by the exercise. The Volountary Assets and Income Declaration Scheme, VAIDS, -- which FIRS ran in conjunction with the Federal Ministry of Finance and the State Government-turned in almost a similar amount: N93 billion with about 5122 applications. In Corporate Social Responsibility, CSR the agency under Fowler has innovatively identified with the creative industry providing support to enable them unleash their talents and contribute more to Nigerian economy. There are so many good things to say about Fowler. So many to fill volumes. He hugs public, the Organised Private sector, OPS, the Small and Medium Scale entrepreneurs in a manner no head of the federal tax agency has done. Fowler explains explains and explains. There is huge improvement in Audit circle from 90 to 63 days. FIRS and JTB are trying to do away with multiplicity of audits from state and federal tax authorities audit teams; there is predictability in Transfer Pricing codes, regulations and administration. Taxpayer population countrywide has grown from under 10 million, since Fowler became the Chairman Joint Tax Board, JTB, to over 20 million. Just last week, Fowler, promised that the national tax roll will hit 45 million before the end of the year. There is improvement in Nigeria’s rating in the World Bank global ranking on the Ease of Doing Business. Fowler’s efforts on Ease of paying taxes, Nigeria moved up 14 places in one year alone. From within and without the shores of this continent, Fowler is accumulating landmark plaudits on the international plain: He is the Chairman African Tax Administration Forum, ATAF. So confident about his leadership were heads of tax authorities in Africa were, that they asked him to lead African tax practitioners for a record second term as ATAF Chairman, in October last year. That was in faraway Botswana. Fowler is also the first Vice Chairman of the United Nations International Committee of Tax Experts. There are only 25 of such tax eggheads in the world. And it is not for nothing that the United Nation Secretary General named Fowler as one of such global tax thinkers, who shape tax practice and administration on the planet! Fowler has proven himself one of the best minds in President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration, and has justified his appointment by all standards. He is a dutiful tax collector, who has assisted the federal government in providing the funds through which elected officials could provide predictable revenue to bring dividends of democracy to Nigerians. For those eyeing his seat, or attempting to throw spikes on the way to deter his possible promotion for other appointments within the federal system in the soon to be named cabinet of Mr. President for his second time in office, the joke of their media trial is on them. Babatunde Fowler is a material to be proud of anywhere and at anytime. Read the full article

Book honoring Filipino heroes to be launched on Nat’l Heroes Day

#PHnews: Book honoring Filipino heroes to be launched on Nat’l Heroes Day

MANILA – After several postponements due to the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, noted author Melandrew T. Velasco will finally launch his 35th book “Twilight Glory: Honoring Heroes and Veterans” via Zoom and Facebook live.

“What is special of the book launching is that it coincides with the celebration of the National Heroes Day,” Velasco said.

The book is in honor of Filipino heroes, who did outstanding feat for the country beyond their call of duty.

Velasco, author and publisher of the book, said “the Philippines has many heroes —living and dead, recognized and unsung — who helped shape the country’s destiny and honoring them is the least the nation can do for them.”

This is the essence what Velasco wanted to underscore when he wrote the book with Philippine Veterans Affairs Office (PVAO) Administrator Ernesto G. Carolina and former Congressional Committee on Veterans Affairs and Benefits chairman now Lingayen Mayor Leopoldo N. Bataoil as co-authors.

The book is co-published by the Ramos Peace and Development Foundation (RPDEV), PVAO and Media Touchstone Ventures, Inc. (MTVi).

The 320-page coffee table book tells the story of over 500 years of the Filipinos’ struggle for a free, independent, and sovereign nation.

From the pockets of revolts in the early Spanish regime to the years of the Philippine Revolution in 1896; from the Philippine-American War to the attainment of Philippine independence from the US in 1946 with World War II in between; from the post-World War II reconstruction and rehabilitation and to the Philippine participation in the Korean and Vietnam wars to ensure regional peace and security; and from the martial law era and to the rebuilding of the nation in post-EDSA People Power Revolution.

As a tribute book to heroes and veterans, it has a chapter on the national shrines, memorials and the government entity mandated to ensure the welfare of veterans — the Philippine Veterans Affairs Office.

The book also includes a chapter on the veterans’ fight for benefits and recognition here and in the US and another chapter on current challenges of the country: peace and order, foreign relations, natural calamities and the Covid 19-pandemic.

Twilight Glory was initially intended for book launch presentation on March 22, 2020 at the Fairmont Hotel to be part of the 92nd birthday celebration of former President Fidel V. Ramos.

The 92-year old Ramos, popularly known of his initials — FVR, is among of the country’s living heroes.

He has witnessed the horrors of war such as the Korean and Vietnam Wars; fought as a soldier; and has served the country in another battlefield, as President of the Philippines.

Velasco said FVR’s presidency ushered in a new era in the country’s history as he led the country to become among the fastest growing economies in the region during his time.

He is a hero both in times of war and peace and deserves to be honored in his twilight years.

Velasco said all was set for the launching of his new book but “because of the quarantine imposed in mid-March by the government to contain the spread of Covid-19, the launch was moved to April 9, 2020 to coincide with the commemoration of Araw ng Kagitingan.

Unfortunately, the quarantine still stands until today, and the launch has been moved indefinitely.”

The Covid-19 pandemic, along with natural calamities in the past has given rise to new heroes and they are not limited to the uniformed men and women of the Armed Forces of the Philippines and the Philippine National Police.

“We have modern day heroes who sacrificed their lives to save others in times of calamity and national emergency like those doctors, nurses and other front-liners to minister to the sick and keep our communities safe,” wrote Velasco.

Ramos once said: “Today our country calls us, not to die but to live for it. The patriotism borne of revolution and war must give way to citizenship for peace and development, which means personal commitment, social obligation, and civic responsibility.”

As in the past, the business community has heeded this call. San Miguel Corporation president and CEO Ramon S. Ang, one of the sponsors of the landmark Twilight Glory book project, has launched a number of initiatives to assist those affected by the pandemic and, as of July 1, has spent more than PHP13 billion for their relief efforts.

Aside from San Miguel Corporation, other corporate sponsors of Twilight Glory are PVAO; Manila Water Company, Inc.; Maynilad Water Services, Inc.; Mr. Oscar and Anthony Jude (AJ) Violago; International Container Services, Inc.; Philippine Gaming Corporation, CEZA, and, Philippine Veterans Bank. These entities have also activated their respective CSR arms to help government efforts against Covid-19.

Velasco is the family biographer of Ramos and has co-published more than 15 books with RPDEV. He is President and CEO of MTVi and has authored 35 books. (PNA)

Fidelity Bank donates three security vans to Lagos traders to boost security

Fidelity Bank Plc on Monday donated three security vans worth millions of naira to traders in Lagos to boost security in line with its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). The vans were donated to the traders under the umbrella of Auto Spare Parts and Machinery Dealers Association (ASPAMDA), Association of Progressive Traders (APT) and Balogun Business Association (BBA). Speaking at the official handover ceremony in Lagos, Mr Nnamdi Okonkwo, the bank’s Managing Director, said that the donation was in fulfillment of its promise to the traders three months ago. Okonkwo said that the bank during an engagement with the traders three months ago realised that their major challenge centered around security. He noted that the bank decided to facilitate security arrangements by presenting the three security patrol vans to them. “We went over to ASPAMDA, BBA to see how we could serve them better and in that process a lot of issues came up which included issues about security in that area as well as infrastructure. “We realised that security was a challenge when we made that visit and that also included the fact that the market does not have security patrol vehicles. “We did made a promise that we will support them with that and that is why today we are presenting these vehicles to facilitate their security arrangements in the various markets”, Okonkwo said. He also said that the bank had opened a portal for children and wards of their customers in the market that were unemployed to apply for jobs in the bank. “As an institution, we do not take deposits and give loans alone, we realised from interaction that most of these customers have wards, children who have gone through university and are not still employed. “So, we used the opportunity to create a portal for eligible candidates to apply and those that pass the recruitment exercise will be employed by the bank,” Okonkwo added. Also speaking, Mrs Nneka Onyeali-Ikpe, the bank’s Executive Director, Lagos and South West, said that the gesture was a way of rewarding the traders for their loyalty over the years. Onyeali-Ikpe said that the bank would continue to deliver to all its customers and stakeholders. Responding on behalf of the traders, Chief Daniel Oforkansi, ASPAMDA President, commended the bank for its kind gesture of giving back to the immediate community. “We are happy and it is a big challenge to other competitors in the financial industry as Fidelity Bank has done exceptionally well. “What they exhibited today shows that they are ready to promote our businesses”, Oforkansi said.
