President Bola Tinubu will not withdraw the four tax reform bills from the parliament, contrary to the advice of the National Economic Council (NEC), a presidential aide said on Friday.
Bayo Onanuga, the president’s spokesperson, said Mr Tinubu would instead allow the lawmaking process to take its course.
“He believes that the legislative process, which has already begun, provides an opportunity for inputs and necessary changes without withdrawing the bills from the National Assembly,” Mr Onanuga wrote.
