The Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) are putting up efforts for the adoption of the National Identification Number database to drive all taxable adults in the country into the tax net.
Muhammad Nami, the FIRS Chairman, on Thursday in Kaduna explained the agency was working with the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) to achieve this.
Nami also disclosed that the FIRS would soon adopt electronic taxation (e-Tax) to help limit tax evasion and leakages.
The FIRS boss said it has become pertinent to significantly improve the fiscal position of state governments amid the current economic challenges
