Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde has shed more light on why the 36 state governors are demanding wider consultation on President Bola Tinubu's tax reform bills. According to Makinde, governors intend to ensure that the entire nation is carried along, given the far-reaching implications of the reforms.Makinde, who spoke during a media chat on the Broadcasting Corporation of Oyo State on Saturday, clarified that he is not opposed to the tax reforms.
Many stakeholders are opposing certain sections proposed by the government. The bills include the Nigeria Tax Bill, Nigeria Tax Administration Bill, Nigeria Revenue Service Establishment Bill, and Joint Revenue Board Establishment Bill.Makinde noted that the NEC agreed that the bills should be withdrawn to enable broader consultations with stakeholders. This, he said, could lead to alignment, whether in their original form or with necessary adjustments based on stakeholder feedback.
