According to a story by Encomium magazine,
Bishop David Oyedepo, Alhaji Aliko Dangote
and Dr. Mike Adenuga are among the top 10
Nigerian billionaires who will pay hundreds of
millions of naira annually as luxury tax due to
the imposition of a whooping $4,000 luxury tax
by Aviation Ministry on private jet owners and

$4, 000 tax. Continue...
From Encomium magazine
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.

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.
