The Delta State Board of Internal Revenue Service, IRS, has encouraged Deltans to pay their taxes as that would help the state government in its drive for accelerated infrastructural development.
Executive Chairman of the board, Hon (Chief) Solomon Ighrakpata made the call when officials of the revenue service appeared before the Delta State House of Assembly Committee on Finance and Appropriation for its budget defence.
Hon Ighrakpata represented by the Executive Director Operation, Dr Sam Nwaogu, explained that the state government in 2024 made effective use of tax payers money for the development of the state.
