Lawyer demands Tinubu halt tax law rollout, calls for probe first

Some lawyer is telling Tinubu to pump the brakes on those new tax laws. Activist attorney Maduabuchi Idam just demanded that President Bola Tinubu suspend the whole tax reform package before it starts. The laws are supposed to kick in at the beginning of 2026. Idam wants everything stopped until there's a full investigation and the real version of the law gets officially published. He sent a formal letter to the President, citing serious allegations from House rep Abdussamad Dasuki. Dasuki claimed the published law has major changes compared to what lawmakers actually voted on.

Idam called this a fundamental constitutional problem. He argued that the accusation alone has wrecked public confidence in the tax reforms. The doubt over the law's authenticity means it shouldn't be implemented yet. The lawyer insisted that a proper probe must happen first to find the correct text that was passed and signed. He finished his letter by urging Tinubu to listen to wise and impartial advice, free from politics or personal gain. He also sent his seasonal greetings.
