President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has restated his commitment to the tax reform bills currently before the National Assembly, stating that the reform is “here to stay.”
The declaration was made during Tinubu’s inaugural presidential media chat on Monday night.
The tax reform bills have been a subject of controversy and opposition, particularly from Northern leaders.
However, President Tinubu has said that the reform is “pro-poor” and essential for the nation’s economic growth.
He said,
“The tax reform is here to stay. The reform is pro-poor, and it is to widen the tax net so we can have more people paying.
“The hallmark of a good leader is the ability to do what you have to do at the time it ought to be done.”
Tinubu, however, said he was open to negotiations on the issue.
“Tax matters are subjects of debates and negotiations. I don’t mind cutting edges. I will,” he added. [CONTINUE READING HERE]>>>>>
