The President of the Abuja Chamber of Commerce and Industry – ACCI, Chief Emeka Obegolu, has called on entrepreneurs and corporate leaders to align with the Federal Government’s new tax reforms.

In an Easter message released in Abuja, Obegolu emphasized that adhering to the updated tax framework is essential for eliminating the long-standing burden of multiple taxation. By fostering a more harmonized and transparent fiscal environment, these reforms are expected to improve the ease of doing business and provide a much-needed boost to Nigeria’s economic development.

While acknowledging the significant hurdles currently facing the private sector—including infrastructural deficits, regulatory pressures, and general economic uncertainty—the ACCI President framed the Easter season as a symbol of resilience and renewal.

He stressed that the success of Nigeria’s economic transformation depends heavily on sustained collaboration between the government and the private sector. Obegolu urged business leaders to remain innovative and united, advocating for inclusive policies that can withstand contemporary adversity.

To ensure a seamless transition to the new tax regime, the ACCI highlighted the critical need for capacity building and awareness initiatives, particularly tailored for Small and Medium Enterprises – SMEs. As the leading voice for the organized private sector in the Federal Capital Territory, the Chamber reaffirmed its commitment to promoting policies that drive sustainable growth.

The message concluded with a call for renewed national commitment, wishing the business community a prosperous celebration while reinforcing the importance of effective communication in achieving reform goals.
