The concept of tax-for-service continues to generate debate in Nigeria's fiscal policy space. At its core, the model suggests that taxpayers should receive commensurate public goods and services in return for their tax contributions.
The discussion raises important questions about the social contract between citizens and the state. Proponents argue that visible service delivery strengthens voluntary tax compliance, while sceptics question whether the framework can be operationalised effectively within Nigeria's existing fiscal architecture.
Further perspectives on this topic are expected as the conversation around taxpayer rights and government accountability evolves.
