taxes<\/a> has submitted its report to the council.<\/p>\n\u201cAfter receiving the report, we resolved that each adult in the state \u2014 including non-indigenes \u2014 as well as male and female civil servants are to pay N2,000 each as development levy annually,\u201d the commissioner said.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor the cattle levy, \u2018jangali\u2019, every cow owner will pay N500 per cow yearly. We are going to push the matter to the state house of assembly for legislative process.\u201d<\/p>\n
When asked if it would not amount to double taxation for civil servants since tax is being deducted from their salaries, the commissioner said the civil servant tax is different.<\/p>\n
According to him, the one introduced by the state government is \u201cdevelopment levy\u201d, which is for all residents in Katsina.<\/p>\n
He added that married women who are not working would be excluded, while those who are employed would pay the levy.<\/p>\n
The commissioner explained that the development is not new in the state, as it had been in existence but was abolished in 1979.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow, we have brought it back. Before we commence, government will take a biometric data of all adults in the state to know those who will pay and those that will not,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe data will provide us with necessary information, address, business, and other relevant information about the tax payers.\u201d<\/p>\n
Jobe noted that the same thing would be applicable to cattle owners, as the data will provide information on the number of cows and where the owners reside.<\/p>\n
The commissioner, however, said the state government took the decision as part of efforts to check banditry, cattle rustling, stealing, kidnapping and other criminalities across the state.<\/p>\n
