The Joint Tax Board (JTB), the apex body for tax authorities in Nigeria, has said that it is ready for the offtake of the digitisation of Nigeria’s tax system to ensure efficiency and transparency.
Speaking on Wednesday at a staff retreat in Abuja, JTB’s Secretary, Mr Olusegun Adesokan, emphasised the significance of getting staff members ready for the current and evolving tax environment.
Adesokan said the organisation was set to submit some of its reports to the presidency soon, and that one of its major advocacies was for a total digitisation of tax administration for effectiveness.

He noted that, “The secretariat, which serves as a hub for major federal and sub-national revenue authorities, needs to be prepared for the task ahead. One of the things the committee is also doing is to reposition and strengthen the trained tax board. We do not have to wait till the reforms have been implemented before we prepare ourselves for the emerging trends.”
