For Zacch Adedeji, It’s Time to Work

Great things are on the horizon for Nigeria’s economy. The economy’s levy and taxation arm is expected to pick up pace with the arrival of Zacch Adedeji at the scene. Indeed, given his expertise, the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) could potentially become Nigeria’s number one agency

Having witnessed the methods of his predecessors, Babatunde Fowler and Mohammed Nami, Nigerians believe that Adedeji could surpass them, bringing the mandate of FIRS to fruition.

The rising expectations for Adedeji’s performance are related to two important indices. The first one is the condition of the Nigerian economy. Desperate times validate desperate measures. The second index is Adedeji’s portfolio which portrays him as a potential saviour, able to drive the country’s tax policies for maximum efficiency.

Reports suggest that Adedeji has what it takes to arrive at this level of efficiency. With around two decades of professional experience in the corporate corridor, Adedeji’s familiarity with all things accounting, administration, and consultation is at its peak. Furthermore, given his teamwork spirit, it is almost certain that Adedeji’s appointment to the FIRS Chairman position is the wisest decision by the present administration. Unsurprisingly, Adedeji is already demonstrating his brilliance to assure the public that his appointment to the FIRS chief position is sound. During a retreat for senators in Abuja regarding fiscal policy and tax reforms, Adedeji offered multiple actionable insights for sustainable economic growth.

Adedeji’s primary argument is that Nigeria needs a diversified economy. The lesser the reliance on oil, the better. Clearly, the man has been around and knows exactly what needs to e done to strengthen the country’s prospects.

With such positive matters in mind, Nigerians can rest knowing that a competent person is in charge of FIRS. Nevertheless, the time has come for Adedeji to put into practice all that he has conceptualised for Nigerians.
