The League of Northern Democrats (LND), under the leadership of its Chairman and former Kano State Governor, Senator Ibrahim Shekarau, has outlined conditions for supporting President Bola Tinubu’s Tax Reform Bills currently under review in the National Assembly.

During a public event in Abuja, Shekarau emphasized the importance of addressing concerns raised by a technical committee set up to evaluate the bills.

The committee’s findings highlight socio-cultural and governance issues that, if overlooked, could have severe consequences. Shekarau underscored the LND’s stance on the reforms as a chance to foster economic stability while tackling broader national challenges.

“The LND views the proposed tax reform bills as an opportunity to advance Nigeria’s economic stability while addressing constitutional, socio-cultural, and governance concerns,” Shekarau stated.

“We urge comprehensive amendments to ensure inclusivity, national cohesion, and equitable resource distribution.”

The LND’s recommendations and their potential impact on the tax reform debate will likely draw attention as discussions progress.
