The Minority Caucus of the House of Representatives has confirmed a difference in the tax laws approved by the National Assembly and the version gazetted by the government after it was signed by President Bola Tinubu.
According to the lawmakers, some portion of Nigeria’s recently gazetted tax laws were illegally altered.
The disclosure was contained in an interim report of the Minority Caucus Ad-hoc Committee on Tax Laws, set up to investigate allegations of discrepancies between the tax reform Acts passed by the legislature and the versions published in the official gazette.
According to the committee’s preliminary findings, a comparison of the Certified True Copies released by the House with the earlier gazetted versions confirmed that alterations had indeed been made, particularly to the Nigeria Tax Administration Act, 2025.
