According to our sources, among the four jets
owned by Bishop Oyedepo (Gulfstream V and
G550, Bombardier and Gulfstream G430), he uses
three regularly personally and for his missionary
work. Thus, his luxury tax annually will be an
average of N399 million. Alhaji Aliko Dangote who
has three private jets in his hanger will also pay
an average of N399 million per annum. Dr. Mike
Adenuga, Jnr, whose Falcon 7x and Bombardier
jet are used for personal and business purpose
should pay an average of N266 million. Governor
Rotimi Amaechi and his Akwa Ibom counterpart,
Governor Godswill Akpabio would shell out an
average of N166.4 million annually. Pastor Ayo
Oritsejafor falls into the same category of N166.4
million naira payer.  Meanwhile, Pastor Enoch
Adejare Adeboye, Jide Omokorie and Ifeanyi Ubah
would pay an average of N133 million annually,
while Jimoh Ibrahim falls within the N100 million
category.  Furthermore, the richest woman in
Nigeria, Folorunsho Alakija would spend N66
million on luxury tax.
Findings by Encomium Weekly revealed that the
top 10 private jet owners who would cough
millions annually on the new luxury tax are below.
The clash of the titans between the Federal
Government and private jet owners reached a
crescendo with the imposition of the $4,000 luxury
tax on private jet owners and operators per
departure. A memo was sent to all private jet
operators stating that Nigerian registered private
jets would henceforth pay $3,000 for every
departure, while foreign registered private jets
would pay $4,000.
