Tinubu commissions new Nigeria Revenue Service Headquarters in Abuja

President Bola Tinubu on Tuesday officially commissioned the new Corporate Headquarters of the Nigeria Revenue Service (NRS) in Abuja, marking the formal transition from the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) to the newly restructured agency.

The ceremony, captured in a video shared by the President’s Special Assistant on Social Media, Dada Olusegun, showed Tinubu hailing the performance of the agency before formally declaring the building open.

Another video from the event showed the President cutting the ribbon and unveiling the facility, alongside top government officials including the Chairman of the Nigeria Revenue Service, Zacch Adedeji; Senate President Godswill Akpabio; Speaker of the House of Representatives, Abbas Tajudeen; and the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike.

During the unveiling, Tinubu read from the commemorative plaque, stating: “The corporate headquarters of the Nigeria Revenue Service was commissioned on the 14th day of April 2026 by His Excellency, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. This edifice stands as a lasting symbol of integrity.”

According to Olusegun, the new headquarters comprises 16 floors and three towers, with capacity to accommodate about 3,000 staff members.

The development is part of the administration’s broader tax reform agenda aimed at restructuring Nigeria’s revenue system and improving efficiency in collection and administration.
