A prominent Mogaji of Ibadanland, Chief Abass Oloko, has praised Zacch Adedeji for what he described as a remarkable wave of achievements, headlined by the historic completion of the Nigeria Revenue Service (NRS) headquarters after 22 years of delay.
Oloko said the delivery of the long-abandoned headquarters stands as a powerful symbol of decisive leadership and a clear departure from years of unfulfilled promises.
According to him, for more than two decades, the project remained stalled despite repeated attempts by previous administrations, becoming a lasting sign of institutional setbacks.
“Zacch Adedeji has rewritten that story,” Oloko said.
“By completing the NRS headquarters, he has not only delivered a building but restored confidence in public leadership. It is a legacy achievement that will stand the test of time.”
Chief Oloko stressed that the new headquarters represents far more than a physical structure, it embodies efficiency, coordination, and a renewed sense of purpose within Nigeria’s revenue system.
Beyond the landmark project, Oloko highlighted other notable strides recorded under Adedeji’s leadership.
He pointed to ongoing reforms aimed at modernising tax administration, including the adoption of digital systems to improve revenue collection, enhance transparency, and reduce leakages.
According to him, Adedeji has also strengthened institutional discipline within the NRS, improved stakeholder engagement, and introduced measures that are making the agency more responsive and performance-driven.
“What we are witnessing is a complete transformation,” Oloko added.
“From infrastructure to policy direction and operational efficiency, Adedeji is laying a solid foundation for a stronger and more effective revenue institution.”
He further noted that Adedeji’s leadership has inspired renewed confidence among both public and private sector stakeholders, positioning the NRS to play a more strategic role in Nigeria’s economic development.
“He is improving systems, strengthening capacity, and setting new standards for accountability in public service.”
Oloko concluded by describing Adedeji’s leadership style as impactful and forward-looking, expressing optimism that the reforms being implemented will significantly boost Nigeria’s fiscal stability and long-term growth.
