However, Tinubu stated that the reforms are in favour of the poor and might not be embraced by everybody.
Addressing the matter during the presidential media chat in Lagos State, Tinubu stated: “The tax reform is here to stay. The reform is pro-poor, and it is meant to widen the tax net so we can have more people paying.
“The hallmark of a good leader is the ability to do what you have to do at the time it ought to be done.”
