Edo State Government Targets Six Billion Naira Monthly IGR


The Edo State Government says it will target six billion naira monthly Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) from January 2023 to keep the state afloat.

 

The state Commissioner for Communication and Orientation, Chris Osa Nehikhare, in a statement however, assured that the burden of meeting the target will not be on the people already in the tax net.

 

Rather, he said the government will expand its tax net by leveraging on land transactions to make more money. 

 

He defended the new target, saying that it is achievable because the government has a lot of land for sale and has also created an enabling environment for businesses and investments in the state to thrive.
