Tax Reform Bills aim to benefit all Nigerians, Presidency assures

The Presidency has dismissed claims that the proposed Tax Reform Bills will disproportionately benefit states like Lagos and Rivers while impoverishing northern regions.

In a statement released on Monday by the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, the Presidency described such assertions as misleading and reckless, emphasizing that the bills aim to improve the quality of life for all Nigerians, especially the disadvantaged.

“Instead, they aim to enhance the quality of life for Nigerians, especially the disadvantaged, who are trying to make a living,” the statement read.
