“The last one year at the Federal Inland Revenue Service, FIRS, has been marked by many achievements. I am not surprised at all. I was one of those who told people, especially my colleagues in the National Assembly that this man was going to perform and he has not let the nation down. To say I am proud of this my constituent is an understatement because to serve the country at this difficult time and succeed is no mean feat.

“The country, more than ever, is in need of revenue to put in place infrastructure, revamp education, facelift health system and others. This is because returns from oil that we depended largely hasn’t been like before. I recall how FIRS under Dr Zacch Adedeji has been doing well. From surpassing the target last year to restructuring at the Service, introduction of new tax collection tools as well as workers’ welfare. I have no doubt in my mind that FIRS, under the supervision of my brother, would do better this year and the coming years.
