Tunde Fowler, the newly appointed boss of the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) is still basking in the euphoria of his new appointment which landed on his laps last week.
Several of his fans, close associates and family members have not stopped celebrating Fowler’s feat.
Many believe he is the best man for the job because of his shrewdness and the legal means at his disposal which made him make huge success in the collection of revenue on behalf of Lagos State Government.
Fowler came into prominence when he was first appointed chairman of the board when Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu was governor of Lagos State. He was credited with raising the revenue profile of Lagos State from little bit below N1billion to N18billion monthly in 2013 and later increased it last year.
