President Bola Tinubu says the tax reforms initiated by his administration have come to stay.
Tinubu stated this on Monday during the first presidential media chat in Lagos.
The president addressed mixed reactions regarding the tax reform bills before the National Assembly, stating that the benefits of the reforms far outweigh the concerns raised.
“Tax reform is here to stay. Why do you want to know that today? Tax matters are subject to debates, reviews and negotiations until you reach concessions. That is what I am going to say about that. I don’t mind cutting edges.
“We cannot continue to do what we previously did in today’s economy.
“We cannot retool this economy with the same broken boat and I believe that I have that capacity that is why I went into the race. I am focused on what Nigeria needs and what I must do for Nigerians.
“It is not yet eldorado for everybody but the new dawn is here. I am convinced,” Tinubu said.
