Kaduna Clamps Down: 13 Companies Sealed Over N1.5bn Land Use Charges

Unpaid Land Use Fees: Kaduna Shuts 13 Firms for N1.5 Billion Debt

The Kaduna State government has sealed 13 companies for failing to pay land use charges totaling N1.5 billion.

These actions are part of the state’s ongoing efforts to address its revenue collection system, which has been increasingly automated to ensure more efficient tax and charge collections.

The crackdown on unpaid charges highlights the state’s commitment to enforcing regulations and ensuring businesses comply with land-related fees.

This is in line with Governor Nasir el-Rufai’s broader strategy to boost Kaduna’s internally generated revenue (IGR), which has seen significant growth in recent years.

By streamlining and centralizing tax collection, the state aims to enhance compliance and improve its fiscal health.
