He commended Sani for automating tax administration and equipping KADIRS with tools to support the digital process.“KADIRS now has a One-Stop-Tax portal called ‘Pay Kaduna Portal,’ which enables citizens to pay their taxes from anywhere, without physically coming to the tax agency’s offices,” the chairman said.
Adams said Sani’s focus on financial inclusion, expanding the tax base, and reorganising KADIRS has led to higher revenue without raising tax rates, by using a “horizontal approach” instead of the previous “vertical approach”. According to Adams, the “tax for service” approach has also increased voluntary tax compliance as people see where their money goes.
