Background of the Study
Poverty remains one of the most significant challenges in Nigeria, particularly in local government areas like Pankshin LGA. Tax revenue plays a crucial role in funding social welfare programs and infrastructure projects aimed at alleviating poverty. However, the efficient allocation of tax revenue is often hindered by poor administration, corruption, and ineffective use of funds. In many regions, the full potential of tax revenue to reduce poverty is not realized due to inefficiencies in its allocation.
This study examines the relationship between tax revenue allocation and poverty reduction in Pankshin LGA. It will explore how effectively tax revenues are utilized to fund poverty reduction programs and whether these allocations have a direct impact on improving the living standards of the local population. Understanding this relationship is critical for designing policies that optimize tax revenue to address poverty-related issues in the LGA.
