EKO HOT BLOG reports that the lawmakers stated that portions of Nigeria’s recently gazetted tax laws were illegally altered after the legislative process had been concluded.
This disclosure was contained in an interim report of the Minority Caucus Ad hoc Committee on Tax Laws, which was established to investigate allegations of differences 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 issued by the House of Representatives with the earlier gazetted versions confirmed that alterations were made, particularly in the Nigeria Tax Administration Act, 2025.
