President Bola Tinubu has unveiled a new Personal Income Tax calculator to help Nigerians estimate their tax obligations under the fiscal reforms recently signed into law by his administration.
Announcing the tool in a post on his official X handle on Friday, the President explained that the calculator allows citizens to compare their current tax payments with the revised rates, giving them a clearer understanding of how the reforms will affect their incomes.
He emphasized that the changes, which take effect in January 2026, are designed to make the tax system fairer and more equitable.
“A fair tax system must never punish poverty or weigh down the most vulnerable,” Tinubu said. “With the new tax laws coming into effect from January 2026, we have lifted this burden and created a path of equity, fairness, and true redistribution in our economy.
“The Personal Income Tax Calculator enables Nigerians to check their estimated tax under the new laws against what they currently pay. It shows clearly how these reforms protect low-income earners, ensure progressivity, and simplify compliance, creating a transparent system that works for everyone.”
Tinubu urged Nigerians to embrace the reforms, noting that they represent a step toward building a fairer and more prosperous economy. “Together, we are renewing hope in the Nigeria of our dreams. Take a bet on our country. Bet on Nigeria to work for you, your family, and your community,” he added.
