President Bola Tinubu on Monday met with the Chairman of the Federal Inland Income Service (FIRS), Zacch Adedeji on the State Home in Abuja amid an ongoing controversy surrounding the sealing of a FIRS workplace by the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA).

The closure has sparked criticism from the tax company, which described the transfer as “malicious” and “unprofessional,” arguing that the property in query was underneath the administration of the Workplace of the Head of Civil Service of the Federation.
Additionally on the Villa on Monday had been the Minister of Stable Minerals Growth, Dr. Dele Alake; Minister of Funds and Nationwide Planning, Senator Abubakar Atiku Bagudu; and the Governor of Borno State, Prof. Babagana Zulum, who held separate closed-door conferences with the President.
Tinubu additionally acquired the Managing Director of the South East Growth Fee (SEDC), Mark Okoye II, who had earlier introduced the fee’s ambition to drive the area’s economic system to $200 billion by 2035 consistent with the President’s $1 trillion GDP goal.
