The Federal Government has mandated the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) to generate N25.2 trillion in tax revenue for the 2025 fiscal year.
This ambitious target follows the agency’s historic achievement in 2024 where it collected N21.6 trillion, surpassing its N19.4 trillion goal.
Executive Chairman of the FIRS, Dr. Zacch Adedeji, described the 2024 performance as a landmark moment in Nigeria’s tax administration history.
Adedeji stressed the need for sustained momentum, strategic reforms, and institutional consolidation.
He noted that the Service is committed to achieving long-term resilience and operational excellence with a focus on three key pillars: capacity building and training, infrastructure and facility enhancement, and technological advancement.
