My people, make I gist you wetin don happen for Lagos! E be like say na tax matter dey hot for town as President Bola Tinubu don receive new tax laws wey go change the game from January 1, 2026. No be small thing o!

This gist come from the man wey dey lead the team wey prepare the laws, Taiwo Oyedele. As e reach Tinubu side for his house, him hand over the documents like say na golden trophy. Photo wey dey fly around show say big men like Femi Gbajabiamila and Joseph Tegbe join the party. Na serious matter dem dey handle!

For June 2025, Tinubu don already sign four tax reform bills wey go control how we dey do business and pay tax for Naija. Those bills include the Nigeria Tax Bill and the Joint Revenue Board Bill among others. Na wetin e mean be say dem wan harmonise all this wahala wey dey happen with multiple taxes wey dey scatter everywhere like small pepper for soup.

The way dem dey plan am go sweet, because dem dey promise to reduce tax burden for common people wey dey hustle. Even small businesses go get exemption wey go make sense for dem. Na time for everybody to shine their eye because government wan generate better revenue without dey vex people.

But no be everybody dey happy like dat. Some people don dey broadcast wrong information on top these reforms, dey make people dey fear like say dem wan collect all our money. The Special Adviser to the President on Economic Affairs, Tope Fasua, don gather enough gist dey talk say no be so e go be. E talk say dem dey try to make sure say wetin dem dey do no go touch the poor negatively but rather, e go help everybody.

Fasua even talk about better roads wey go come from this tax reform. E mention the Brass–Nembe Road for South-South wey don dey open small small because of money wey dem don collect as tax. Na good sign o! E no clear if the road go fit carry our motor waka, but one thing we sabi be say e go better.

Ayoyo, Oyedele self don carry mouth talk say these reforms na to ease the burden, no be to add more wahala to anybody. E don tire for all the wrong information wey dey spread everywhere like wildfire. Alhaji Lanre Issa-Onilu wey dey lead NOA even talk say dem go use 16 platforms for every area to spread the correct talk about these tax laws.

So my people, no be all the wahala things wey dem dey talk, try make you follow correct news so you no go dey miss anything wey go concern your pocket. As we dey enter 2026, make we dey alert because these new tax laws fit carry plenty changes for the way we dey run things. E go beta—if dem fit follow am well!
