Taiwo Oyedele, Chairman of the Presidential Fiscal Policy and Tax Reforms Committee, and Alaje, have differing opinions on Nigeria's tax reforms. Oyedele criticizes the current tax system, stating that it unfairly burdens the poor and low-income earners, while the wealthy are not contributing their fair share. He advocates for reforms that exempt low-income earners from taxes, citing South Africa as an example, where only 1% of the population pays taxes.
On the other hand, Alaje seems to support the existing tax system, suggesting that a significant percentage of state government workers would no longer pay taxes under Oyedele's proposed reforms. This disagreement highlights the ongoing debate on tax reforms in Nigeria, with different stakeholders having varying opinions on how to create a fair and effective tax system.
