Tinubu to Sign Four Tax Bills to Cut Taxes, Help Nigerians and Small Businesses
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu says Nigeria is set for a major economic shift as he prepares to sign four significant tax bills into law. In a post shared on his official X account Thursday, Tinubu explained that the new tax reforms are designed to do more than just tidy up tax laws, they are aimed at providing real relief to ordinary Nigerians.
“In the next few hours, I will be signing four major tax reform bills into law, marking a bold new chapter for our economy,” he stated. He noted that the reforms would introduce the first major tax cuts in years, with benefits focused on low-income earners, small business owners, and families struggling to keep up with daily living costs.
The tax bills include the Nigeria Tax Bill, the Nigeria Tax Administration Bill, the Nigeria Revenue Service (Establishment) Bill, and the Joint Revenue Board (Establishment) Bill. Tinubu explained that these new laws will help bring together Nigeria’s scattered tax system, reduce waste, cut unnecessary processes, boost investor confidence, and ensure better transparency and coordination across all levels of government.
It was reported that former Nigerian president Goodluck Jonathan has allegedly purchased a presidential candidate form for the 2027 elections.
It can be noted that Jonathan served as Nigeria’s president from 2010 to 2015.
This information was revealed by Sani Useni, a special assistant who made the claim. Many reacted to the news, with some expressing interest in seeing Jonathan return to power after staying relatively quiet politically since his administration ended.
However, Jonathan has not yet addressed the public or officially shared any presidential ambition.
The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has reacted to the recent abduction incident in Oyo State.
It can be recalled that schools were attacked by armed men, with some teachers and students reportedly taken. Some people were also killed during the attack.
CAN cried out on behalf of the public, stating “It is intolerable, disgraceful and utterly unacceptable that Nigerian children can no longer sit safely in classrooms without the fear of being kidnapped by armed gangs.”
The organisation also stated that Nigerians are tired of constantly mourning and questioning when something will finally be done to stop the violence.
The Governor of Oyo State, Seyi Makinde, has revealed that seven teachers were abducted following a recent attack on a school in the state.
It was also shared that the number of students taken is still being investigated.
The governor further revealed that some people were killed during the attack and abduction.
He also added “With the pressure on the terrorists and the bandits in the North-West, they will keep moving southward.”
“When you have pressure in one place, we must be prepared on this side to either repel or neutralise any terrorists fleeing the pressure points.”
