Nigerian Newspapers Daily Front Pages Review | Friday 1st November, 2024

Naija News looks at the top happenings making headlines on the front pages of Nigeria’s national newspapers today Friday, 1st November 2024.

The PUNCH: The 36 state governors of the federation have unilaterally demanded the immediate withdrawal of the National Tax Reforms Bill, delivering a significant strategic blow to the comprehensive efforts undertaken by the Taiwo Oyedele-led Presidential Fiscal Policy and Tax Reforms committee. The governors, speaking during the National Economic Council – Nigeria’s highest economic advisory body – meeting on Thursday, asked President Bola Tinubu to withdraw the Reforms Bill from the National Assembly for more comprehensive consultations.

Vanguard: Governors, under the aegis of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum, NGF, have admitted the fact that there is hunger in the country. Rising from a meeting in Abuja that lasted from Wednesday night to the early hours of yesterday, the governors said they were aware Nigerians were hungry but expressed appreciation of what they described as reforms of President Bola Tinubu

Daily Trust: Barring any last minute changes, the Bola Tinubu Presidency will withdraw the Tax Reform Bills sent to the National Assembly barely two months ago by the president.  This is owing to the controversy generated by the four bills, which were sent to the parliament by President Tinubu on the 3rd of September, 2024

Thank you for reading, that is all for today, see you again tomorrow for a review of Nigerian newspapers.
