TINUBU UNVEILS PERSONAL INCOME TAX CALCULATOR AHEAD OF 2026 REFORMS
By Aishat Momoh. O.
President Bola Tinubu has urged Nigerians to use a newly launched Personal Income Tax calculator designed to help citizens estimate their tax obligations under the administration’s new reforms.
In a post on his official X account on Friday, the President said the tool enables taxpayers to compare their current tax payments with projections under the new laws, which take effect from January 2026.
Tinubu explained that the reforms are aimed at creating a fairer tax system that protects low-income earners while ensuring equity and transparency.

“A fair tax system must never punish poverty or weigh down the most vulnerable,” Tinubu said. “With the new tax laws I recently signed, taking effect from January 2026, we have lifted this burden and created a path of equity, fairness, and true redistribution in our economy.”
According to him, the calculator—available at [https://fiscalreforms.ng/index.php/pit-calculator/](https://fiscalreforms.ng/index.php/pit-calculator/)—demonstrates how the reforms safeguard low-income earners, promote progressivity, and simplify compliance for individuals.
The President urged citizens to embrace the reforms, describing them as part of his administration’s commitment to renewing hope and building an economy that works for all.
“Together, we are renewing hope in the Nigeria of our dreams. Take a bet on our country. Bet on Nigeria to work for you, your family, and your community,” Tinubu said.
