After a weekend of violence and fear, U.S. officials warned Sunday that luxury hotels frequented by foreigners and Nigeria’s elite may be bombed by a radical Muslim sect as the death toll from attacks in the country’s northeast rose to more than 100.
The warning by the U.S. Embassy shows how seriously diplomats take the threat posed by the outlawed Islamist group known locally as Boko Haram, which previously bombed the United Nationsheadquarters in the capital, Abuja, killing 24.
The unusually specific warning from the U.S. Embassy identified possible targets in Abuja as the Hilton, Nicon Luxury and Sheraton hotels. With popular restaurants and bars, the hotels draw diplomats, politicians and even reformed oil delta militants.

Lagos – Nigeria’s president says that next week’s gubernatorial elections will go ahead as planned, despite the deadly riots that swept northern Nigeria after the recent vote.
In an address to the nation on Thursday, President Goodluck Jonathan said that calm was being restored in the troubled parts of Africa’s most populous country. Voters are set to cast ballots in gubernatorial elections across Nigeria on Tuesday.
But riots broke out in Nigeria’s mostly Muslim north after the Saturday presidential election. That violence and subsequent reprisal attacks have left at least 100 people dead and forced 40 000 from their homes.

Under current Nigerian law, taxation is enforced by the 3 tiers of Government, i.e. Federal, State, and Local Government with each having its sphere clearly spelt out in the Taxes and Levies (approved list for Collection) Decree, 1998. Of importance at this juncture however are tax regulations pertaining to investors both foreign and Local.
The importance of tax regulations cannot be over-emphasized, as most transactions with any Ministry, department, or government agency cannot be concluded without evidence of tax clearance. i.e. a Tax Clearance Certificate certifying that all taxes due for the three immediately preceding years of assessment have been settled in full. The following are some of the relevant tax regulations in the country.
