Lagos Govt Shuts Down 34 Companies Over Tax Remittance

Lagos State Government has shut down thirty-four companies operating in the state over alleged failure to remit the personal income tax of their employees and non-remittance of other taxes worth N356.12 million.

The Director of Legal Services at the Lagos State Internal Revenue Service (LIRS), Seyi Alade, confirmed this on Monday while speaking during a state-wide tax law enforcement exercise.

He said the offices shut down include operators within the state’s hospitality sector.

“These companies deduct personal income taxes from their employees’ salaries at the end of each month and charge consumption taxes on goods and services purchased by customers.

“Unfortunately, some unpatriotic firms withhold these payments, illegally converting the funds for their own use,” he said.
