Okay, so the whole thing sounds like a messy family feud between government groups. The FCTA (that's like the city government for Abuja) came out and sealed the FIRS office, which is supposed to collect taxes for the whole country, right? They said FIRS didn’t pay ground rent for, like, 25 years! But FIRS shot back saying, “No way, we paid everything up to 2023.” They even called what the FCTA did unprofessional and kinda rude.
So what did Tinubu do? He called everyone in, including Zacch Adedeji, who runs FIRS, and top ministers. I guess he wanted everybody to chill out and sort their issues so it doesn't turn into a bigger embarrassment. I feel like Tinubu has enough drama with people mad about other stuff, so he definitely didn't want this to get any messier. In my opinion, it’s wild that parts of the government can't even agree about basic stuff like rent – makes you wonder how they’re handling bigger problems. But hey, at least they’re talking now, so hopefully someone just writes the check or finds the receipt and ends this whole thing.
