Top 10 Blogs and Bloggers In Nigeria
Since I launch my blog late last year, I have seen copy cats of existing blogs that the only difference is the name. The template is the same. The post are very similar-word for word. The meta tags or blog description inseparable. And yet, they ask ''how come I am not making it in the blog industry. I posted the same thing as this person. The person earned more money and traffic and I didn't. What should I do?'' I tell them it's very simple ''Be Original. Stand out and be Patient''

I have created this amazing list of the top ten bloggers and blogs in Nigeria. Please feel free to nominate any site. The list has been voted for by most Nigerians and people like you. Don't feel bad if your blog is not included. Either, you are number 11 or you are a copycat. I will keep updating this thread every 3 months and some blogs/site listed in the past may be dropped as a result of (Rise/Fall) traffic.

The Lagos State Internal Revenue Service (LIRS) has shut down seven companies for failing to remit about N58.8 million personal income taxes of workers to government.
Mrs Folasade Coker-Afolayan, Head of the Distrain Unit of the LIRS, announced  this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Thursday in Lagos.
Coker-Afolayan, who led the enforcement team, said that the companies were sealed on Wednesday during a state-wide tax enforcement drive.
She said that the affected companies’ tax liabilities covered between one and four years.
According to her, the enforcement will continue until companies and workers imbibed the culture of voluntary tax compliance.
“Tax evasion is a crime and it is a serious crime to evade tax for so many years.
“Tax payment is also a civic responsibility for everyone because that is the only way government can provide the necessary infrastructure for the citizens and also improve their standard of living,” she said.
Coker-Afolayan also urged companies to remit the personal income tax of their workers promptly to avoid closure of their business premises.
She said that LIRS usually followed due process by notifying companies severally before shutting down defaulting ones.
She also said that a notice of intent had been sent to the affected companies in accordance with the Personal Income Tax Act (PITA) amendment 2011.
“As to whether they received the notices or not, that is purely an internal matter of the companies,’’ she said.
Coker-Afolayan advised companies operating in the state to remit their taxes promptly and not to wait until government enforced the tax laws.
