NANS Cancels Nationwide Protest Over Tax Law

The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has cancelled its planned nationwide protest against the newly enacted Tax Reform Law after a series of  engagements with key government bodies. ..


The protest was originally scheduled for January 14, 2026, and was intended to halt the implementation of the law pending public sensitisation and the conclusion of a National Assembly investigation. 

However, following meetings with the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS), the Department of State Services (DSS), the National Assembly, and the Presidential Committee on Fiscal Policy and Tax Reforms, NANS leadership said they were fully briefed on the objectives and provisions of the law.

 NANS President Olushola Oladoja explained in a communiqué issued after the maiden Expanded National Executive Council (ENEC) meeting that tax experts and lawmakers clarified the intent of the reforms, which helped address the concerns that initially motivated the protest. 

 NANS concluded the Tax Reform Laws were a deliberate and well‑intentioned policy aimed at strengthening Nigeria’s economy and revenue framework

  3. Nothing has ever brought to the fore the core tribal mindlessness of Yorubas than this deceit practiicng regime.

    They explore tribal exhortation, such that any union chaired by a Yoruba if the head is Yoruba is made to truncate any plans for protests.

    Were this a Jonathan or any other tribes regime, even Wole Soyinka and Adeboye would have gone to the streets with hate placards.
