**Breaking News: Zack Adedeji's NRS Achieves Phenomenal Success in Revenue Collection** A remarkable achievement has been recorded in Nigeria's revenue collection, and it's time to give credit where it's due. The Ohanaeze Ndi Igbo Youth Council has commended the Executive Chairman of the National Revenue Service (NRS), Zack Adedeji, for exceeding the Service's 2025 revenue target. This remarkable feat is a testament to the Chairman's strategic leadership and the ongoing reforms within the Service. According to reports, the NRS collected a total of ₦28.23 trillion in 2025, which is ₦3 trillion above the projected figure of ₦25.2 trillion. This represents a 12 per cent increase over the target and demonstrates the growing diversification of Nigeria's revenue base. Gone are the days of overdependence on oil earnings; the NRS has made significant strides in enhancing non-oil tax revenue. The Ohanaeze Ndi Igbo Youth Council has hailed the achievement as a product of deliberate reforms, innovation, and transparency. They believe that this feat is not a one-off but a result of the Service's efforts to expand the tax net, block revenue leakages, and improve compliance mechanisms. The implications of this achievement are far-reaching. Improved revenue performance is critical to funding infrastructure, security, education, and other key sectors of the economy. The Ohanaeze Ndi Igbo Youth Council has called on Nigerians to support ongoing fiscal reforms aimed at strengthening national revenue generation. They also urged the National Assembly to continue providing the necessary legislative backing to sustain the momentum and ensure that revenue growth translates into tangible development outcomes for all Nigerians. The Council has reaffirmed its confidence in the leadership of Mr. Adedeji and encouraged the NRS to consolidate on the gains recorded in 2025 to achieve even greater milestones in the years ahead. This is a moment to celebrate, and we must continue to support the efforts of the NRS to ensure that Nigeria's revenue collection continues to grow and benefit the nation.
