President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Thursday received Dr. John Nwabueze, the pioneer Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian Tax Complaints Commission (Tax Ombudsman), at the State House, Abuja.
The meeting was attended by the Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Mr. Wale Edun, who accompanied Dr. Nwabueze.
Dr. Nwabueze was appointed by President Tinubu on 4 November 2025 under the Joint Revenue Board of Nigeria (Establishment) Act, 2025.
The Tax Ombudsman is tasked with independently resolving complaints and disputes between taxpayers and tax authorities nationwide.
During the audience, President Tinubu charged Dr. Nwabueze to carry out his mandate with diligence and impartiality, stressing the need for fairness in all operations.
He reaffirmed the Federal Government’s commitment to transparency, accountability, and equity in Nigeria’s tax system.
The establishment of the Tax Complaints Commission is expected to strengthen taxpayer protection, improve dispute resolution, and restore public confidence in tax administration.
The engagement reflects the Tinubu administration’s push for fiscal reforms that prioritize justice and a more balanced relationship between revenue agencies and citizens.
