Governor Chukwuma Soludo of Anambra State has emphasised the importance of generating revenue through the newly inaugurated Anambra State Internal Revenue Service. During the inauguration of the board members at the Governor’s Lodge in Amawbia, Governor Soludo urged the members to increase the internally generated revenue (IGR) of the state, stating that it is the lifeblood of any government. He noted that the state has yet to achieve up to N3 billion per month in IGR and that the 2023 budget depends on a significant turnaround in state revenue, requiring an over 180 percent increase.
