 Kaduna Targets ₦120bn IGR In 2026 — KADIRS Chairman

 

Kaduna State has set an Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) target of ₦120 billion for the 2026 fiscal year, with the Kaduna State Internal Revenue Service (KADIRS) expected to play a central role in achieving the target.


The Executive Chairman of KADIRS, Jerry Adams, FCTI, FNIM, FCE, CNA, disclosed this during the Service’s Annual Performance Review, Work Plan, and Strategic Retreat. 


He explained that although the state government approved ₦74 billion as KADIRS’ official revenue target, the Service raised its internal benchmark to ₦80.09 billion to motivate staff to exceed expectations.


He further stated that the proposed 2026 budget by the Kaduna State Planning and Budget Commission stands at ₦117.28 billion, with KADIRS expected to generate ₦74.28 billion, while Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) are projected to generate ₦43.24 billion.


According to Adams, the retreat was convened to strengthen implementation strategies and prepare the Service for the new tax regime. 


He noted that the Nigerian Tax Act represents a defining phase in tax administration and will significantly reshape revenue streams, operational processes, and taxpayer engagement. 


He urged staff to fully understand the Act’s provisions, uphold excellence in policy interpretation and service delivery, and avoid errors that could negatively impact the state’s development and service delivery.


The Executive Chairman also expressed appreciation to Governor Uba Sani (CON) for his unwavering commitment and consistent support for KADIRS, noting that the Governor’s leadership has been instrumental in strengthening the Service and driving its revenue growth initiatives.


At the retreat, the Commissioner for Planning and Budget, Hon. Mukhtar Ahmad, and the Economic Adviser to the Governor, Mr. Ahmad Shehu Haruna, encouraged KADIRS to collaborate closely with other revenue-generating MDAs, emphasizing that inter-agency cooperation would be critical to achieving the ₦120 billion revenue target.


Similarly, the Commissioner for Finance, Ibrahim Tanko, represented by the Permanent Secretary, Alhaji Lawal Habeeb, stressed the importance of continuous learning and capacity building in effective revenue administration. He added that the retreat underscored KADIRS’ commitment to institutional improvement and alignment with government fiscal priorities, while also calling for increased public awareness and stakeholder engagement to address taxpayer misconceptions.
