Reps probe tax law tweaks, PDP demands suspension

Reps

The House of Representatives on Thursday constituted an ad hoc committee to probe the alleged discrepancies in the tax reforms passed by the parliament and the official gazetted copy currently in circulation across government agencies.

This was as the Peoples Democratic Party demanded that the Federal Government further shift forward by six months the January 1, 2026 take-off of the new tax law.

The opposition party said the shift became important following an alleged illegal alteration made to the law passed by the National Assembly.

The PDP added that the six-month shift would allow for “sufficient enlightenment campaigns on the new Act.” Punch
