A statement by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu said Buhari noted that the leadership and guidance of Nami has repositioned operations and staff of the agency, using technological tools to institute far more transparency, accountability, and effectiveness, which has, in turn, translated into the increased capacity to deliver on mandate with results manifestly seen.

It added that the President commends the Executive Chairman for bringing many years of experience in financial services to bear on the foremost tax regulator, with a growing impact on the economy, especially as the government expands and prioritizes infrastructure development.

President Buhari prayed for the well-being of the Executive Chairman and his family, the statement said.
