President Bola Tinubu on Monday met with the Executive Chairman of the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS), Dr. Zacch Adedeji at the Presidential Villa in one of his very first official engagements after returning from a two-week vacation during which he visited the United Kingdom and France.
Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga in a Facebook post, announced that Tinubu resumed work at the State House and received a briefing from the FIRS chief executive who doubles as Special Adviser to the President on revenue.
Onanuga said “President Bola Tinubu at his desk this morning, after returning from a two-week vacation. Mr President received a briefing from Zaccheus Adedeji, Chairman of, the Federal Inland Revenue Service. Abuja, Monday, October 21, 2024.”
President Tinubu departed Abuja on Wednesday, October 2, and returned to Nigeria on Saturday 19th October 2024.
Although the FIRS boss did not speak to journalists after his closed-door meeting with the President, NewsQuest gathered that the engagement centered on some of the major reforms embarked upon by the tax agency and other essential interventionist decisions affecting the level of the nation’s revenue inflow.
