Nigerian Accountants Call for Withdrawal of Tax Laws Over Discrepancies
The Council of Accountants in Nigeria, represented by Hajia Zuwairat Talatu Kishimi Anan, has expressed concerns over inconsistencies in tax laws passed by the National Assembly and later published in official gazettes. The discrepancies threaten the rule of law and fiscal stability, leading to confusion among taxpayers, tax administrators, and professionals.
The Council highlights the need for transparency, accuracy, and legal certainty in the gazetting process to ensure compliance, enforcement, and investor confidence. An independent investigation is urged to address the discrepancies and restore trust in the tax system.
