The special adviser to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on policy communication, Daniel Bwala, has, during an interview on Prime Time, an Arise Television program from 1:50, expressed disappointment that some people are generating a notion in the media that the Tax Reform Bills are a move by the South to impoverish the North, as he maintained that he is also from the North and does not align with that opinion.
Bwala noted that the Bills seek to boost the economic performance of states and lift the people out of poverty.
Daniel Bwala had said, “You know, thank you for having me. I am from the North and I am really saddened by the notion generated in the media that it is a North versus the South thing; and not from the media in the sense of media people, but people creating the narrative that the Tax Reform Bills are Bills designed to afflict the North; that is not true.”
