The federal government has introduced a new telecommunications tax to provide finance to subsidise the cost of provision of health care services to vulnerable persons in Nigeria.

by President Muhammadu Buhari on May 19.

The law defines the vulnerable group as children under five, pregnant women, the aged, physically and mentally challenged persons, and the indigent “as may be defined from time to time”.It specified that the money from the vulnerable group fund shall be expended to provide subsidy for health insurance coverage of vulnerable persons as determined by the council; and for the payment of health insurance premiums for the indigent.

Robbing Peter to pay Paul...

Make una kuku impose a tax on Air we breath, how did we get to this level for God's sake? Buhari govt are not normal all? Milking citizens dry without citizens benefitting anything from them, Man's inhumanity to Man They should just announce Mas- Burial for D Citizens That all

Nonsense. Brain he no get, school he no go. He should go and consult Segunmimiko how he finance his ' Mother and Child' project and it's successes. Yeye man.

To finance health care or to loot? And I hope this affects only the wailers not the hailers ooo?🤔

If health care was made a prerequisite consideration for any political office, I'm sure this would be given the needed attention. Probably health care form would be sold at 20million per aspirant.

Which health care. Do you have good Hospitals. Another way of milking Nigerians. Why❓❓

After imposing the so called tax on text messages, all online Bank transactions and data. So phone calls are now included

What a strategic picture
