Ondo State Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu, has said there is a need to develop strategies that would enhance the Internally Generated Revenue of the country following the current decline of revenues from the oil sector of the economy.
Akeredolu stated this in his keynotes address at the ninth Chartered Institute of Taxation of Nigeria Zonal Conference, held in Akure, the state capital.
He said the way out of the present economic challenges is to look inward and generate revenue aside from the one coming from the oil sector.
The Governor maintained that this will break the syndrome of over-dependence on petro-naira that has subjected our fortune as a country to the vagaries of oil prices in the oil markets.
