President Bola Tinubu has stated that his administration’s tax reforms have come to stay.
The Nigerian leader stated this on Monday night while speaking during his first presidential media chat in Lagos State.
The tax reform bills, which are before the National Assembly, have generated controversies and met push back especially from the Northern leaders, forcing the lawmakers to initiate consultation.
However, Tinubu stated that the reforms are in favour of the poor and might not be embraced by everybody.
He said, “The tax reforms are 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.”
