The federal government of Nigeria has said it is set to rename the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) to Nigeria Revenue Service (NRS).
The name change according to FG will depend on whether the proposed amendment to the Finance Act now before the National Assembly sails through.
The Minister of Finance, Budget and National Planning, Zainab Ahmed, said the chief executive would be referred to as “Commissioner-General” as against the title of “Chairman”.
She spoke when she appeared before the Senate Committee on Finance.
Other provisions are the reorganisation of the FIRS Board by separating the executive management.
