Subject: National Commendation for the Landmark Tax Reform and a Call for Collective Support to Drive Impact and Public Engagement

On behalf of the Initiative for Good Governance and the Economic & Financial Experts Professional Groups of the Great Nigerian Assembly (GNA), we write to extend our profound commendation to the Federal Government of Nigeria, the Senate, and the House of Representatives for initiating and accelerating the passage of the landmark Tax Reform Initiative.

This reform represents a courageous, forward-thinking, and transformative milestone in Nigeria’s journey toward fiscal responsibility, equity, and sustainable development.

A Reform Anchored on Fairness, Growth & National Prosperity

For far too long, Nigeria’s tax system has faced significant challenges—narrow tax coverage, inefficiencies, loopholes, and a disconnect between taxation and visible democratic dividends.

This bold reform addresses these weaknesses and ushers in a new era of:

• Simplified and inclusive tax processes
• Wider tax net without overburdening honest taxpayers
• Increased non-oil revenue generation for infrastructure and development
• Improved investor confidence and business environment
• Enhanced public trust through transparency and fairness

By linking taxation to developmental outcomes, this initiative lays a firm foundation for improved governance and strengthened public accountability.

A Salute to the National Assembly’s Leadership

We deeply commend the Senate and the House of Representatives for their collaborative, non-partisan approach in fast-tracking this reform. Their legislative foresight and commitment to national interest demonstrate that the legislature remains a vital pillar of economic renewal and institutional reform.

This is leadership in action—and Nigeria salutes your service.

A National Call to Action: Let’s Embrace and Support the Reform

We urge all Nigerians—citizens, professionals, business owners, civic groups, and development partners—to rally behind this reform by:

✅ Complying with the restructured tax system as responsible citizens
✅ Educating others on the benefits and requirements of the reform
✅ Monitoring implementation and demanding transparency in the use of tax revenues
✅ Working with government agencies to ensure inclusive enforcement and protection of low-income earners

This reform is for the people, and by supporting it, we are securing a stronger economic future for all.

Support the Campaign: Sponsor, Donate, and Spread Awareness

To ensure that this commendation reaches all corners of Nigeria and translates into real results, we call on:

• Private organizations
• Development partners
• Township associations
• Concerned individuals and professionals

…to sponsor and donate to this commendation campaign.

Your support will help:

✅ Launch nationwide awareness and education campaigns on the reform
✅ Facilitate liaison and strategic engagement with tax authorities and policy agencies
✅ Fund media broadcasts, town hall meetings, and digital outreach to amplify public understanding
✅ Monitor the implementation process for accountability and citizen feedback

Donors and sponsors will be acknowledged based on tiered categories (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond) and recognized in our “Hallmark of Impact” as champions of governance reform.

Conclusion: A New Dawn for Nigeria’s Fiscal Future

This is more than a policy. It is a renewed commitment to national development, equity, and the social contract between citizens and the state.

We celebrate this giant stride and reaffirm our resolve to support, monitor, and contribute to its success.

Nigeria is rising. Let us rise with her.
