OGIRS also highlighted its dedication to partnering with industrial stakeholders to boost sustainable economic growth in Ogun State.
Impressed by Dangote Cement, Ibese Plant’s tax credentials, Mrs. Olajube expressed satisfaction with the Company and urged it not to drop its guard, while also seeking timely documentation as well as enhanced collaboration, particularly with the Yewa North Zonal Office of the Service.
She expressed the Agency’s commitment to strengthening alliance with the Ibese Plant in the spirit of transparency, accountability, and mutual benefit and reaffirmed its commitment to fostering stronger partnerships with key stakeholders in the state’s industrial sector.
The Revenue Service boss stated among others, “Dangote Cement Ibese Plant continues to demonstrate excellence in tax compliance, and we are proud to acknowledge their contribution to the economic development of our state.”
