Being a lawyer brings me fulfillment – Samuel Agbeluyi, president CITN
How would you describe your experience as the Vice President of Chartered Institute of Taxation of Nigeria and what were your achievements in this position?
What were the lessons you learnt in that position that you would be adopting as the president of CITN? If I must access the whole team as led by the immediate past president, I think we rose to the occasion. We had a sizeable number of our staff working from home. We reduced the working hour and the good thing was that we never owed anyone a dime. It was challenging to the leaders but we were able to surmount that area.
We as an institute under my leadership will be focusing on that. The situation is not hopeless. We have to ensure that the challenge is overcome significantly. We will do that through a lot of training. One cannot give what one does not have. We are not like the politicians, with all due respect to them. Politicians talk about what they would do without giving details of how it would be achieved. There is always a process leading to any accomplishment.
I went to a polytechnic because I did not see the possibility of going to the university because of the finance involved in it. I knew I could go to the polytechnic for two years, do attachment for one year, and refuel in terms of money, and sponsor myself for a Higher National Diploma. So, because of that challenge then, I had to go to Yaba College of Technology, Lagos, to study Accountancy. When I was to go to Yabatech, I had the opportunity to go to the Nigerian Defence Academy.
