Yero seeks improved IGR

Kaduna State governor, Muhktar Yero, has expressed disappointment with the current level of the Internally Generated Revenue (IGR).

He vowed government will hence reinforce the revenue drive of the state.

Speaking, while playing host to partners of C2G Consulting and SAP Africa led by Onyekachi Uzukane, the governor said that the state will partner with all stakeholders to improve its revenue.

The Director General, Media and Publicity to the governor, Ahmed Maiyaki, quoted the governor as saying that instead of the state IGR improving annually, it has been on the decline though the state has all the potential to raise the IGR.

Yero, who said he would like to know the cause of the decline and the challenges, stated government is going to fully concentrate on revenue generation through prompt and regular payment of tax as well as other revenues due to the state.
