Senator Mohammed Onawo, representing Nasarawa South Senatorial District, has expressed strong dissatisfaction with President Bola Tinubu’s stance on the controversial tax reform bills before the National Assembly.
During his recent media chat, Tinubu made it clear that there would be no reversal on the bills, citing the need to eliminate colonial-based assumptions in the nation’s tax environment.
