Bauchi State Governor, Bala Mohammed, has urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to reconsider any proposed tax reform laws that might deepen regional divisions in Nigeria.
Speaking at the opening of the State Executive Council meeting held at the Government House, governor Mohammed stressed on the need for policies that reflect fairness and unity.
He raised concerns about the ongoing discussions around the national tax reform law, which, he feels, may overlook the interests of the northern region.
The governor further expressed confidence in the North’s ability to foster economic growth through agriculture and mineral resources, encouraging regional self-reliance.
