‘North Won’t Oppose Tinubu In 2027 Because Of Tax Reform Bill’
In other news, the Director-General of the Tinubu-Shettima Ambassadors, a campaign group that advocated for President Bola Tinubu in the 2023 elections, Oladele Oyelude, has downplayed attempts to use opposition to the tax reforms bill to create discord between the North and President Tinubu ahead of the 2027 election.
Oyelude, an All Progressives Congress (APC) leader in Osun State, emphasized that those opposed to the bill should work with their National Assembly representatives to address any concerns rather than stirring up regional tensions.
Speaking to journalists in Osogbo on Saturday, he noted that the bill would prompt governors to focus on revenue generation, which would ultimately aid national development.
