Tinubu’s tax reform bills: Sani reacts

Sani’s comments were prompted by the heated debates surrounding the tax reform bills. Some senators have publicly expressed their opposition to the bills, with one senator even admitting to not having read the contents of the bill before commenting on it. Sani’s call to action encourages his colleagues to engage with the bill more constructively and informatively.

The tax reform bills have been a topic of discussion in Nigeria, with some groups expressing their support for the reforms. For instance, the Minister of Information has stated that Nigeria’s tax system is long overdue for reform. Similarly, former Governor Babangida Aliyu, Senator Shehu Sani, Sheikh Gumi, and Rev. Hayab have all expressed their support for the tax reform bills.

Despite the support from some quarters, the tax reform bills have also faced opposition from various groups. Some have argued that the bills will burden citizens, while others have expressed concerns about the potential impact on the economy.
