The Kano State Internal Revenue Service (KIRS) has unveiled an ambitious plan to rake in N200 billion in Internally Generated Revenue (IGR), leveraging ongoing tax reforms centered around the National Identification Number (NIN).
The Executive Chairman of KIRS, Dr. Zaid Abubakar, disclosed this during a stakeholder recognition ceremony held to honour individuals and organisations contributing to the agency’s performance despite economic and structural challenges.
According to Dr. Abubakar, the state has recorded significant progress since 2024 in areas such as tax compliance, revenue growth, and service delivery, driven by reforms and strong collaboration with partners.
