Hearing of a spectular hike in #Iswap's taxation of fish on parts of Lake Chad. Used to be 3,000 nairas for a carton with a market value of 90,000. Now 30,000.
And the market war goes on. Recent military ops against a fish market near the Lake. Goods destroyed. Some civilians killed. But of course, the business has resumed. Civilians cant do without.
The taxation of cattle stays the same - 1/30 of the herd every year. Since that rate is an Islamic prescription, perhaps it's difficult to change for a moment that claims to adhere to Islamic principles...
for a *movement. Ugh. I hate doing typos on Twitter.
