Welcome to the Nigerian Governors Forum IGR Dashboard
The IGR dashboard was launched by the Nigerian Governors forum on February 18, 2017, as one of its flagship programmes to support state governments raise domestic revenues.
The platform is designed to assess the tax/revenue environment of States, track the impact of tax reforms, and facilitate the sharing of commendable practices through peer learning and technical assistance.
How it works
The Dashboard provides real time access to all 36 States’ Internal Revenue Service (SIRS) to regularly maintain and track data on tax administration, tax processing, tax procedures, tax enforcement as well as monthly internally generated revenues.
The NGF Secretariat drives the operation of the programme and supports the implementation and monitoring of recommended actions of the Dashboard, including those agreed at Joint Tax Board (JTB) meetings.
The platform also provides evidence to drive strong political commitment from State Governors in the implementation of needed reforms.
