The Chairman of the Nigeria Postal Service, Maimuna Abubakar, says the Federal Inland Revenue Service has stolen the mandate of NIPOST.
The NIPOST chairman said the FIRS, which is the agency responsible for assessing, collecting and accounting for tax accruing to the Federal Government, had begun printing stamps.Abubakar tweeted, “I am worried for NIPOST, having sleepless nights because of NIPOST. We need the general public to come to our aid; FIRS stole our mandate. FIRS are now selling stamps instead of buying from us.
The NIPOST chairman said the FIRS tactically removed her agency from the finance bill despite the contributions the postal service made to the bill. Abubakar stated, “FIRS did not only steal our stamps but also our ideas. What NIPOST had worked for since 2016; our documents, patent, everything sneaked into finance bill and they tactically removed the name of NIPOST.
