While the thinking of Buhari's men is that it may be dangerous to allow Tinubu's boys to hold cash cow positions, we must not sacrifice merit in place of favouritism where national assets are concerned.

While I am not holding brief for Fowler, I think he is more competent than this guy who does not seem to have a track record in revamping the taxes of any state.

lol ... Buhari na im fit naija.

The majority are a stubborn, tribalistic people, so they deserve a stubborn, tribalistic president. How they looked at his antecedents and still elected him in 2015 is stuff of magic as even the Sahara Reporters' man can now testify.

Maybe future presidents (especially the more or less politically correct ones to come from the south) are taking notes.

Adios Señor Fowler. Guess it was fun while the supposed alliance lasted.
meanwhile his security chiefs are well pass their retirement age and tenure but buhari have kept them ad infinitum at the expense of career progression of other officers but quick to replace other people immediately their terms lapse
That is why I have no respect for any Southerner supporting buhari except beneficiaries of his government

The board is composed of a member representing each of the six geographical zones and statutory representatives from a select number of ministries and government agencies.

Mr Muhammad, a well-trained Tax, Accounting and Management professional with highly rated qualifications and professional practice and licenses from relevant professional bodies, has almost three decades of practical working experience in Auditing, Tax Management and Advisory and Management services to clients in the banking, manufacturing, services and public sectors as well as non- profit organizations.

He is an expert in rendering advisory support services to investors in respect of new business start-ups and management of existing businesses. He has also continuously rendered outsourced services to clients in trading, service and manufacturing sectors of the nation’s economy.

Muhammad Nami attended Bayero University Kano and Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria where he obtained a Bachelor’s Degree in Sociology (1991) and a Masters of Business degree (2004) respectively. He is a fellow of Chartered Institute of Taxation of Nigeria, Institute of Debt Recovery Practitioners of Nigeria and Associate Member of Nigerian Institute of Management (Chartered) and Association of National Accountants of Nigeria.

He started his career with PFK in 1993 and rose to the position of a senior Consultant in charge of Tax management and advisory services. He is currently the managing consultant of Manam Professional Services (Chartered Tax Practitioners and Business Advisers) based in Kaduna, Abuja, Niger State.

Mr Muhammad has served, and is still serving, on many companies’ Board and Statutory Board Audit Committees. He was appointed as a member, Presidential Committee on Audit of Recovered Stolen Assets in November, 2017 by President Buhari.

He is married with children.

For the information of wailing wailers here wailing profusely over this appointment that a northerner and Hausa Fulani has been favoured again, MUHAMMAD M. Nami is not from north.
He is from Nami, a village in Lapai local government, Niger State and he is Nupe tribally and culturally.
Accept if they say Nupe are now Hausa or Fulani and Niger State is now located in the north but not middle belt any more.
I have a friend called Ibrahim Gambo n he is a Christian.

98% of all federal parastatals and agencies including paramilitary, judiciary, nnpc etc all headed by one section of the country and you are telling me my criticisms of this man is invalid. Only CBN is still headed by the South and it's a matter of time before he is booted.

Now you know why Buhari sponsored that his Senator brother to try pass the Hate Speeh Bill.

If that Bill was law, by now all of you posting on this thread, though saying the truth, as long as Buhari does not like it, y'all dead.

He will use the law and his DSS to first lock you up indefinitely in prison, before snuffing the life out of you.

Buhari is a a tyrant, a Dictator and a danger to Nigeria's Unity.

WHY TUNDE FOWLER'S TENURE WAS NOT RENEWED

The former Executive Chairman of the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS), Mr. Babatunde Fowler, is a close staff of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Fowler is a competent tax administrator with about 15years of experience. He was once the Executive Chairman of Lagos State Board of Internal Revenue and Chief Executive Officer of Lagos State Internal Revenue Service under the Tinubu administration as Governor of Lagos State.

Babatunde Fowler was confirmed by the Senate in December 2015 as the Executive Chairman of FIRS, this means that his tenure has ended on December 8, 2019. The FIRS Establishment Act says that “the executive chairman shall be appointed by the President subject to the confirmation of the Senate.”

It further states that “the chairman and other members of the board, other than ex-officio members, shall each hold office for a term of four years, renewable once only.” Although the FIRS Establishment Act empowers the President to reappoint Fowler but he was not reappointed due to these reasons.

(1) His Closeness to the Vice President Yemi Osinbajo

Mr. Babatunde Fowler is a childhood friend and former classmate to the Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo. Since President Buhari and his Vice have been sworn in for their second term in office, the Vice President has been facing some upheavals in the Aso Rock.



The upheavals began after the Vice President sacked the DSS Boss for the illegal invasion of the House of Assembly while the president was out of the country. Many of his aides have been sacked through the office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF).

This is a testament that the Aso Rock cabals are maximizing efforts to cut down Osinbajo’s power. Many of the Vice President’s activities were transferred to other offices such as the TraderMoney. Thus, Fowler would be seen as an ally to Osinbajo and reappointing him would be seen as strengthening Osinbajo again in which the cabals do not want.

(2) 2023 Presidential Tussle

Without being pronounced, the struggle for the 2023 presidential candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC) has already started. Among the cabals in the Aso Rock are ambitious presidential candidates or camps of presidential aspirants.

Thus, since Fowler did not belong to the camp of the majority in the Aso Rock cabals, he did not get the reappointment. Working with Tinubu for eight years, it can be argued that Fowler will be loyal to Tinubu as he is popularly seen as Tunubu’s man.

However, at this juncture, Fowler has lost the struggle between his loyalty to Tinubu and sustaining his job. Many ambitious presidential candidates in the Aso Rock have seen Tinubu as a threat to their Presidential ambitions and reappointing Fowler would have created more problems for them.
