Anambra State Joint Enforcement Team has swung into action to stop incessant revenue losses to the State Government.
According to report,on Friday, September 30, 2022 the enforcement team moved into the three Senatorial districts of the state, Anambra South, Anambra North and Anambra Central to affirm the directives against touting, illegal revenue collection and related offences.
The report also stated that enforcement of compliance to revenue payments in the state is paramount. ANJET apprended illegal collectors , otherwise known as Ndi Agbero, that have continued to extort money illegally from the Keke riders, commercial motorists, allegedly stealing revenues accruable to the state from eligible taxpayers. They were apprehended at Bridge Head, Upper Iweka, Onitsha-Owerri road, Ochanja Relief Market and parts of Okpoko where some of these persons were nabbed.
This situation was the same at Igbariam Junction, Awkuzu Junction and Aroma Junction Awka where a notorious tout (Agbero) with some of his colleagues were also nabbed.
Again, the story was not different in Anambra South, precisely at Nnewi where some touts were again picked.
