Fowler’s Tenure Ends, Fate Hangs In The Balance by oshozondii: 8:58am On Dec 09, 2019
The tenure of the Executive Chairman of the Federal Inland Revenue Service, Mr Babatunde Fowler, ended on Sunday with no indication that he would get a second term in office.

Fowler, who is a childhood friend and former classmate of Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo, was appointed as the FIRS chairman on August 20, 2015

He was confirmed by the Senate on December 9, 2015 which implies that his tenure ended on December 8, 2019.

The FIRS Establishment Act stipulates that “the executive chairman shall be appointed by the President subject to the confirmation of the Senate.

“The chairman and other members of the board, other than ex-officio members, shall each hold office for a term of four years, renewable once only.”

Findings revealed that as of Sunday, there was no indication that Fowler’s tenure would be renewed for another four years.

Sources at the FIRS confided in our correspondent that since Sunday was the last day of his tenure in office, it was expected that the handover would be done on Monday to the most senior director in the agency.

Findings revealed that Fowler might hand over to the Coordinating Director in charge of Domestic Tax Group, Mr Abiodun Aina.

Aina was also the special adviser to Fowler.

He should handover to the most senior director in the service today. It is left for the president to reappoint him or appoint another person. We should congratulate him for successfully completing his tenure.

How can Fowler's tenure end?

Dude will get a second term.
He is most qualified in terms of shrewdness to help implement the newly passed Finance Bill of 2019 that introduces a new taxation regime.

Besides that, the FIRS under his command raked in massive revenue for the FG.

And for the then Minister of Finance; Kemi Adeosun though his superior to always address him as "egbon" in meetings show that he is firmly rooted.

We believe in our darling Daddy,
President Muhammadu Buhari and his AMIABLE Vice President PROF YEMI OSINBAJO to make the right decision on this particular appointment.

Fowler has done very well this past year.
It is either he his re-appointed or another capable hand continues from where he stopped.

We love them.
We stand with them.

God bless Nigeria.
