Modo Ante has announced plans to host a National Revenue Growth Summit (NRGS) that would provide solutions on how the federal government could increase its revenue without adding to the tax burdens of the citizens.  

Modo Ante, which is a governance, public sector and political consulting firm, described the summit whose theme is “Unlocking New Streams of Revenues for Government,” as a critical intervention aimed at assisting government in solving the current problem of low funding to finance its “Renewed Hope” agenda to citizens.

The two-day summit that billed to hold in the first-quarter of 2024, according to Modo Ante, would “bring together senior government officials, public officers, other critical stakeholders and experts, with a focus on identifying and exploring some innovative strategies to improve on existing revenue streams of government and create new streams of revenue that erstwhile did not exist, to fund sustainable economic growth.

“The summit would enable good understanding of the current state of Nigeria’s revenue landscape, identify key challenges and opportunities, provoke an out-of-the-box thinking approach that embraces innovative approaches to creating ‘new money’ opportunities for government, especially through creation of value-added services that would enhance government’s productivity and bring about new streams of revenue.”
