Your Excellency, your leadership shines like a beacon of hope, illuminating our path forward in these challenging times. As you profoundly stated, “A nation is built not merely by the bricks and mortar of its structures but by the resilience and determination of its people.” This truth resonates deeply, reminding us that it is the spirit of our citizens that defines our nation, not just the edifices we construct.
Your Excellency, we commend you on your groundbreaking tax reform initiative. The four tax reform bills—the Joint Revenue Board of Nigeria Bill, 2024; Nigeria Revenue Service Bill, 2024; Nigeria Tax Administration Bill, 2024; and Nigeria Tax Bill, 2024—represent a monumental shift in our fiscal landscape. It is disheartening that those who have not taken the time to understand these bills are the loudest critics.
We commend your steadfast commitment to collaborate, cooperate, and work with the National Assembly to achieve your grand vision for Nigeria. However, let me take this opportunity to stress the importance of the Honourable Ministers and Heads of Extraministerial Departments being prepared to respond promptly to requests for them to come and defend their sectoral allocation in the excercise of our legislative oversight.
