As revenue generating agencies of the Federal Government, the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC) and the Nigeria Revenue Service (NRS) have strengthened collaboration to enhance revenue collection for the Federation.
This commitment was reinforced on Monday, when the Commission Chief Executive, NUPRC, Mrs Oritsemeyiwa Eyesan, visited the Chairman, NRS, Mr. Zacc Adedeji, at the corporate headquarters of the apex tax agency in Abuja.
According to a statement by the Head, Media and Strategic Communication, NUPRC, Eniola Akinkuotu, the CCE’s visit was also part of her wider engagement with relevant stakeholders following her assumption of office last month.
The statement disclosed that based on the new tax laws that came into effect on January 1, 2026, the NRS and the NUPRC are expected to collaborate more closely in the collection of oil and gas revenues.
It said at the meeting, both parties agreed to work more closely in the interest of the country in order to meet the revenue target set by the government.
