The Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) has expressed concern over the proposed merger of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS), and Nigeria Customs Services (NCS) into the Nigerian Revenue Services (NRS) by the Federal Government.
LCCI said that while it understands the Federal Government’s arguments on the proposed merger, which borders on improving efficiency in collecting all direct and indirect taxes and levies, the merger should not impede the ease of doing business.
