Dutse, Oct. 27, 2016 (NAN) The Chairman of Jigawa Revenue Board, Alhaji Ibrahim Sani, on Thursday said that the board was set to increase the state internally generated revenue in view of dwindling federal allocations.
Sani told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Dutse that the state government was looking inward to raise revenue to meet its socio-economic responsibilities to the people.
He said that the board had blocked all channels of revenue leakages.
The chairman said that since his appointment a year ago, there had been significant improvement in revenue collection in the state.
Sani advised people and companies in the state to ensure that they collected original receipts for fees and other levies paid to government. (NAN)
