President Bola Tinubu has called on Nigerians to explore a newly launched Personal Income Tax calculator, designed to show how much they will pay under the administration’s sweeping tax reforms set to begin in January 2026.
In a post on his official X handle, the President said the tool allows individuals to compare their current tax rates with those under the new regime, providing clarity on how the changes affect personal income.
According to Tinubu, the reforms aim to create a fair and transparent tax system that protects low-income earners while ensuring equity and redistribution across the economy.

“A fair tax system must never punish poverty or weigh down the most vulnerable,” the President 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.”
He further explained that the calculator demonstrates how the reforms safeguard low-income households, promote progressivity, and simplify compliance.
Reassuring citizens of his administration’s commitment, Tinubu added: “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.”
The Personal Income Tax Calculator is available at fiscalreforms.ng.
