President Muhammadu Buhari, on Thursday, warmly felicitated the Executive Chairman of the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS), Muhammad Mamman Nami on his 55th birthday, praising him for making commendable efforts to raise government revenues, especially at this time of great need.
President Buhari noted that the leadership and guidance of Nami had repositioned operations and staff of the agency, using technological tools to institute far more transparency, accountability, and effectiveness, which has, in turn, translated into the increased capacity to deliver on mandate with results manifestly seen.
The President’s message contained in a statement by his Senior Special Assistant (Media and Publicity), Malam Garba Shehu, also commended the FIRS Executive Chairman for bringing many years of experience in financial services to bear on the foremost tax regulator, with a growing impact on the economy, especially as the government expands and prioritizes infrastructure development.
President Buhari further prayed for the well-being of the FIRS Executive Chairman and his family.
