The Nigerian Presidency has strongly condemned Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed’s recent statements regarding the Tax Reform Bill, which he described as “anti-northern” and threatened to oppose through unspecified means.
The Presidency deemed the Governor’s statement, “We’ll show Tinubu our true color,” as inflammatory and counterproductive to constructive dialogue with the Federal Government.
The Presidency emphasized the importance of collaborative governance and urged Governor Mohammed to retract his remarks and engage in constructive dialogue on the proposed reforms.
The Presidency also highlighted the significant increase in federal allocations to Bauchi State and emphasized that the tax reforms aim to improve revenue collection efficiency and create a more conducive environment for economic growth and development.
These rewrites aim to provide more context and detail while maintaining conciseness and clarity.
