According to Senator Shehu Sani: “The revelation made yesterday by the FIRS Chairman before the House of Reps that presently only 4 states corner the 70% of VAT namely Lagos,Rivers,Oyo and FCT is unjust. This is a strong justification for the Tax reform.

“He also cited an example of the MTN paying most of its VAT to Lagos while all the states are paying for its services. I still admonish the critics of the Bill to remove their political lenses and read the document thoroughly.
“The Bill will ensure equity,fairness and allocate more resources to all other states. All the sentiments raised against the Bill is not contained in the Bill. The Bill should be supported to end the prevailing Tax injustice in the country.”
