Get Guardian on GoogleThe Chartered Institute of Taxation of Nigeria (CITN) has entered into a strategic agreement with Corvendra Ltd to deploy an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered tax compliance platform, TaxiPadi, across the country.
The agreement, signed on Wednesday in Abuja, represents a significant step toward integrating technological innovation with professional oversight.
It underscores CITN’s commitment to modernising Nigeria’s tax ecosystem and strengthening compliance through digital solutions.
The CITN delegation was led by its President, Innocent Chinyere Ohagwa, and included Simon Nwanmaghyi Kato (Vice President); Dr Titilayo Eni-Itan Fowokan (Deputy Vice President) and Afolake Oso (Registrar/Chief Executive).
The Corvendra team was led by its Chief Executive Officer, Dr Fisayo Caleb Olugboye, alongside Samuel Adeyemi, Managing Partner (Consulting) and Gabriel Abba, Chief Operating Officer.
At the core of the partnership is TaxiPadi, an AI-driven platform designed to streamline tax computation, filing and advisory services while ensuring full compliance with Nigeria’s tax regulations.
The initiative directly addresses longstanding challenges in the tax system, including reliance on manual processes, fragmented compliance frameworks and limited digital adoption – particularly among small and medium-sized enterprises.
Olugboye described the collaboration as a strategic intervention aimed at building a more efficient and intelligent tax system, noting that it would enhance accuracy, speed and transparency in tax practice.
Ohagwa reaffirmed the institute’s commitment to innovation and professional excellence. He emphasised that the partnership aligned with CITN’s statutory mandate to advance tax practice and uphold the highest standards in the profession.
