Hammed Shittu in Ilorin
Kwara State Governor, Alhaji Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq, has said that payment of taxes by residents of the state remains a major collective commitment towards the infrastructural and sustainable development of the state.
Towards this end, the governor called for tax education among residents and schools in a bid to strengthen revenue generation,
promote fairness and improve compliance.
AbdulRazaq stated this in Ilorin on Thursday during the 2026 grand finale of the state Internal Revenue Service (KWIRS) tax club quiz competition.
The governor, who was represented at the event by the Commissioner for Education and Human Capital Development, Dr. Lawal Olohungbebe, said that introduction of students to the fundamentals of taxation at an early stage by the KWIRS is a commendable investment in the state.
He also said that the move would help to nurture a generation that appreciates the relationship between tax revenue, public expenditure, accountability, and development.
The governor said that his administration remained committed to building a Kwara State where opportunities for learning, innovation, and personal development are accessible to young people.
“We recognise that education and human capital development are critical pillars of sustainable growth, and we will continue to support initiatives that equip our students with the knowledge, skills and values necessary to succeed in an increasingly competitive world,” he said.
Meanwhile, Government Secondary School, Lafiagi, has again emerged the overall winner for the KWIRS annual tax quiz competition with N2.5 million grand prize.
