“PANDEF ought to play a key advocacy role in supporting the South-South Governors Forum. It was a divine arrangement that your meeting in Bayelsa coincided with the just concluded governors meeting.
As South-South Governors, we support Mr. President’s Tax Reform Bill. However, we also urged him to extend the proposed VAT sharing percentages to other areas of derivation, such as oil and gas.
This significant meeting highlights the strengthening ties between Nigeria and EFTA member countries.
As we embark on this transformative journey, I urge all Bayelsans to rally together in support of our administration’s efforts. Your engagement, feedback, and collaboration are crucial in ensuring that these projects serve the general interest of our communities.
