Senate Leader Opeyemi Bamidele (APC, Ekiti Central) led the debate on the bills after lawmakers returned from an initial executive session. The four proposed tax bills include the Nigeria Tax Bill 2024, which seeks to overhaul the country’s fiscal taxation framework, and the Tax Administration Bill, designed to streamline tax processes and reduce legal disputes. Additionally, the Nigeria Revenue Service Establishment Bill proposes the establishment of a new body to replace the Federal Inland Revenue Service, while the Joint Revenue Board Establishment Bill aims to create a tax tribunal and ombudsman.
