Taxation

Taxation should be something we view as a necessary civic duty, as part of living in a country in which if someone gets sick they can go to a hospital, if someone's homeless we can find them basic accommodation, if some child's parents can't or won't send them to a decent school we'll make sure they have the opportunity of a good education. So am I obliged to pay my taxes as a Nigerian? The local government officials are of the opinion that people should only have a right to demand responsibility from their council, if they pay their taxes. What do you think?
