In Nigeria where electricity distribution companies sit down in their offices and cook up estimated bills for every household... I am not surprised if they tax officials too start bringing estimated bills too...
Maybe you have to pay their office a visit

This is totally ludicrous.
How did they come to the figure of N1million?

Make sure your books of account are in order and challenge that assessment.

Personal Income Tax is tax obtained from your profits or income. And if you aren't making any profit then that assessment is trash.

Am just a small business into computer repair and sales .I don't know how dem got to know my income .I will still pay firs tax,I will sent letter to the governor to for him to see d commission is incompetent. Does I even make 250k as profit last year when I no dey manufactured computer.

How gain I make self ,when we run generator 24/7 and goods re expensive cos of the high cost of dollar

My advice for you is to hire a tax advisor, grant him all rights he needs to act and speak on your behalf. Tax advisors are like your attorney. My brother was at the mercy of FIRS until he got a tax advisor, and then everything changed.

Na just business name I register ,I no register company or a limited liability company.

I have a business name just like u. but i have not received such from them though i base in Akwa Ibom state
