The Kaduna State Internal Revenue Service (KADIRS) has disclosed that the State Government has been the lead in the Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) performing subnational amongst the 19 Northern States in the last two years.

KADIRS explained that the excellent performance was due to the incumbent Governor Uba Sani’s tax reforms.

KADIRS, in a statement signed by its Head of Corporate Communication, Malam Zakari Jamilu Muhammad, noted that records of States’ IGR collections were in the public domain for verification.

The revenue service was reacting to the claim that suggested a decline in the State’s IGR under the present administration.

Muhammad said Governor Sani has introduced a series of reforms that have improved tax collection and made tax payment easy, including “an integrated tax administration portal (PAYKADUNA), financial inclusion initiatives, enhanced taxpayers and stakeholders’ engagement.’’

KADIRS also debunked the rumour that the former Executive Chairman of the agency was removed for calling out the Speaker of the State House of Assembly, for refusing to pay his taxes, explaining that former KADIRS boss had served “his entire four-year tenure as provided in the Kaduna State Tax Codification and Consolidation Law, after which a new Executive Chairman was appointed by the Executive Governor.’’

“As a validation of the reforms in the revenue sector of the state under Governor Uba Sani, in 2023 and 2024, Kaduna State collected IGR of ₦62.48 billion and ₦71 billion respectively, consolidating its place as the leading IGR performing state in northern Nigeria in the last two years.

“Furthermore, in the months of January and February 2025, Kaduna State has already collected an IGR of ₦7.46 billion and ₦6.68 billion respectively, bringing the total revenue collected in two months to ₦14.16 billion,’’ the statement disclosed.

According to the statement, KADIRS has also deployed “the first-of-its-kind interactive voice response system for taxpayer complains redressal among several initiatives that have resulted in improved tax administration in the state.’’

KADIRS further commented on the current automation process of tax collection in the State, explaining that “payments are made through the PAYKADUNA portal or via pay direct channels from which they are swept directly into the State’s Treasury Single Accounts.’’
