The Kaduna State government is aiming to significantly boost its internally generated revenue (IGR) by generating N150 billion monthly through improved tax management strategies.
According to the state’s Commissioner for Planning and Budget Commission, Mukhtar Ahmed, the government is committed to automating the tax collection process, strengthening collaboration between relevant agencies, and intensifying public awareness campaigns to achieve this ambitious target.
Speaking at a stakeholders’ engagement organized by the Kaduna State Internal Revenue Service (KADIRS), Ahmed emphasized the importance of tax compliance, noting that the state’s development depends on the contributions of its citizens.
He urged residents to utilize the new PAYKADUNA platform for convenient and efficient tax payments.
The commissioner highlighted the need for stable IGR, as relying solely on federal allocations may not be sustainable in the long term.
He revealed that 13 revenue-generating agencies have already been identified, contributing over N1 billion monthly to the state’s revenue.
Ali Gora, the Executive Director of Standards and Compliance at KADIRS, explained that the stakeholders’ engagement was aimed at educating the public about tax administration and gathering feedback to improve the system.
By fostering a better understanding of tax laws and regulations, the government hopes to increase voluntary compliance and enhance revenue generation.
