The Joint Tax Board has commended the Adamawa State Government for ensuring efficient utilization of taxpayers’ money for the citizens.
Secretary of the Board, Olusegun Adesokan, stated this when he led a delegation to the Government House in Yola, adding that the infrastructure development is a testament to good governance.
Adesokan explained that Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri’s administration is an example of a disciplined government utilising tax payers’ money properly for the benefit of the citizens.
The secretary revealed that the Joint Tax Board is in Adamawa for its regional training on tax business to ensure effective and efficient tax collection.
He highlighted the importance of leveraging technology to improve tax collection, with a focus on progressive taxation, where the poor pay less and the rich and large corporate organisations are taxed more.
He urged the Adamawa State Government, through its Internal Revenue Board, to continue on the trajectory towards better development and economic growth.
