President Bola Tinubu has commended the Nigeria Governors’ Forum over its unanimous endorsement of the four Tax Reform Bills currently under consideration by the National Assembly.
This is as he urged the National Assembly to expedite legislative action on the bills so that the country can swiftly reap the benefits of the reforms.
According to President Tinubu, “Thursday’s productive consultation between the Nigeria Governors’ Forum and the Presidential Committee on Tax and Fiscal Policy is a commendable example of cooperation between the Federal and State governments”.
The president particularly extended special commendations to the Chairman of the Governors’ Forum, Kwara State Governor Abdulrahman AbdulRazaq, for galvanising support among his peers for these transformative tax bills to rejuvenate the national economy and enhance Nigeria’s investment climate.
President Tinubu also lauded the governors for their bold leadership and commitment to fostering unity among leaders nationwide, transcending regional, ethnic, and political barriers to advance Nigeria’s development.
He noted that the dialogue between the NGF and the Presidential Committee on Tax and Fiscal Policy Reform highlights the power of constructive conversation in resolving differences.
