Fans React As Lagos State Goverment Ask Big Brother Naija Winner, Laycon To Start Paying His Tax As From 2021
The Lagos State Government, through the Internal Revenue Service, have urged the Big Brother Naija Season 5 winner, Laycon, to start paying his taxes as from next year.
Even the the Big Brother Naija show has ended, there is still more to talk about. On that same note, the Lagos state government has announced that as from next year, 2021, the winner of the show will begin paying his tax.
This was made known in a tweet by the Lagos State Internal Revenue Service on Monday after the show came to an end.

This of course did not go down well with some Icons, (loyal fans of Laycon) who took out the opportunity to vent out their anger for making such demands. See some response to the above tweet below.

Dear LIRS, you’re mad, in short you’re very mad.
When Lekan was broke, did you go and congratulate him. You didn’t call to ask him why he was poor and had no money.
When he makes 85,000,000 because of his hardworn, you remembered him and started congratulating him. Jokes!

You people are mad, did you give him job to pay tax from ? So all you have been doing is waiting for him to come out from bbnaija. Give your citizens the same good job you give to your and we will pay our tax

But do you think Laycon is supposed to be taxed by the Lagos State Government? Tell us your opinion.
