Briefing journalists, the board Chairman, Mr. Emeka Odo, appreciated tax payers, agents, institutions and other stakeholders in the tax industry for their support to the state government in discharging their tax obligations in 2017.<\/p>\n<p>Odo noted that the state\u2019s IGR improved &#8220;tremendously&#8221; in 2016 and 2017 having generated about N14 billion and over 20 billion, respectively, from various taxes and non-tax revenues. The chairman attributed the significant increase in the IGR to the far reaching reforms initiated by the Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi\u2019s administration, which he said were &#8220;carefully and systematically&#8221; implemented by the state\u2019s Internal Revenue Service through blockage of revenue leakages and deployment of an Integrated Tax Management System for efficient and easy tax payment, among others.<\/p><div data-ad-id=\"32665\" style=\"text-align:center; margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px;float:none;\" class=\"afw afw_ad_image afw_ad afwadid-32665  \">\r\n                                                            <div style=\"font-size:10px;text-align:center;color:#cccccc;\">Advertisement<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.accessbankplc.com\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" height=\"auto\" max-width=\"100%\" src=\"https:\/\/nationalwire.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Banner-1.jpg\"><\/a>\r\n                                                                        \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b><strong><em>Photo Caption:\u00a0Governor of Enugu State Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi\u2019s<\/em><\/strong><\/b><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Enugu State Internal Revenue Service has appealed to individuals, institutions and other corporate tax payers in the state to continue to be patriotic and cooperate with the board in its renewed efforts to actualise the Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) target of N30 billion.
