A New Year Duʿāʾ.
Alhamdulillāhi Rabbil-ʿĀlamīn.
O Allah, we thank You for carrying us through the past year and allowing us to witness a new one.
Forgive our shortcomings, accept our repentance, and cleanse our hearts.
Grant us Your protection, guidance, and mercy in the year ahead. Bless our efforts, increase us in faith and wisdom, and keep us firm upon the straight path.
Place barakah in our lives, grant us peace and good endings, and allow this new year to bring us closer to You.
Āmīn.

New Year Message To Nigerians.
Fellow Nigerians,
Our nation stands at a defining moment. Nigeria is transitioning from a weak, manual, and wasteful tax system to a modern, data-driven, digital taxation framework. This is not an attack on citizens. It is a necessary step toward national survival and dignity.
Let us be clear: Nigeria is not doing anything unusual. Every serious country in the world uses data, technology, and automated systems to ensure fiscal discipline. Where discrepancies exist between declared income and actual economic activity, explanations are requested. Where obligations are ignored, lawful deductions apply. This is how governments fund development — quietly, fairly, and efficiently.
For too long, Nigeria has borrowed to build roads, fund healthcare, educate children, and provide basic services — while vast wealth generated within our economy escaped proper taxation. This reform closes that gap. It ensures that those who profit the most from Nigeria also contribute fairly to Nigeria.
This system does not target the poor. It focuses on large inconsistencies, high-value transactions, and structured economic activity, particularly in sectors such as oil and gas, banking, solid minerals, telecommunications, and international trade. It protects ordinary Nigerians while enforcing accountability at the top.
We acknowledge that misunderstanding and fear exist — largely because many have never been exposed to how modern taxation works globally. But ignorance must not derail progress. Nations do not develop by avoiding structure; they develop by embracing it.
Data-driven tax digitalisation reduces harassment, removes human intimidation, blocks leakages, strengthens national revenue, and allows Nigeria to fund education, healthcare, social welfare, and infrastructure without sinking deeper into debt.
Patriotism is not resisting reform.
Patriotism is supporting systems that secure our collective future.
Nigeria must move forward.
This reform is necessary.
This reform is normal.
This reform is in the
national interest.
Allow Government to generate tax from multinationals and then enquire about what the funds were used for as is done in any democracy.
