PMB Approves VAIDS extension till June 30, 2018.

The president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria Mohammed Buhari has approved the extension of the Voluntary Asset and Income Declaration Scheme to June 30th.


The President Muhammadu Buhari official twitter handle reads 

@NGRPresident, “For a nation of people who are competitive and driven, it is not a pride that we are the lowest performer in tax to GDP, not just in Africa, but in the world.

Nigeria’s growth needs are such that every Nigerian must carry out his duty to his nation, to his neighbour, and to himself.

“Hiding monies overseas, evading taxes by manipulation, and other unwholesome practices, have never developed a country, and for Nigeria to attain her true potential, these must stop.

However, reporters gathered that the initial postponement of the deadline was due to rounds of plea from private sectors, and other Vips would need to get theirselves together.
