Background of the Study
Public willingness to pay property tax is a critical determinant of its effectiveness as a revenue-generation tool. In Wamakko LGA, property tax compliance relies heavily on public perceptions of tax fairness, transparency, and the benefits of government spending. Citizens’ willingness to pay is often influenced by their trust in the government and the quality of services delivered in return for taxes.
Despite its importance, many residents in Wamakko LGA express reluctance to pay property taxes, citing issues such as lack of awareness, perceived inequity, and poor service delivery. Understanding the factors influencing public willingness to pay property tax is essential for improving compliance and revenue generation.
