Kogi State revenue reaches N43.9 billion annually

The Kogi State Internal Revenue Service (KGIRS) has reported that the state’s internally generated revenue (IGR) has increased to N43.9 billion annually in 2025. This represents a significant rise from the N600 million recorded annually a decade ago.

Executive Chairman Dr. Salihu Sule Enehe attributed this growth to improved tax administration, the adoption of modern revenue collection methods, and successful efforts to curb leakages. During the Service’s Customer Service Week, officials recognized taxpayers and staff for their roles in the state's development.

Beyond revenue collection, the KGIRS highlighted its corporate social responsibility efforts, including providing aid to flood victims and distributing educational materials to schools. The organization also noted its commitment to staff development through financial support for professional training and capacity-building programs.
