President Muhammadu Buhari today in Abuja directed the federal inland revenue services and related government agencies to plug all revenue leakages by ensuring strict compliance of tax payments by foreign companies operating in Nigeria.

Buhari spoke virtually at the first national tax dialogue held at the conference hall of the state house, through the presidential spokesman, Femi Adesina.

The president in his statement ordered all government agencies to automate operations and ensure more synergy in advancing the interest of the nation in revenue generation.

President Buhari assured citizens that the government will continue to pursue its mandate of improving lives through investments in infrastructural projects like railways, roads, electricity, healthcare and education, in spite of dwindling revenues and the challenge of coronavirus.
