Background of the Study
Decentralized tax collection systems have been adopted in many local government areas (LGAs) to promote greater efficiency, transparency, and citizen participation in tax administration. In Soba LGA, decentralized tax collection systems were introduced to improve tax compliance and increase local revenue. However, the effectiveness of these systems in achieving their goals is not well documented.
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of decentralized tax collection systems in Soba LGA, focusing on their impact on tax compliance, revenue generation, and local governance. By examining the strengths and weaknesses of the decentralized approach, this study will provide insights into its potential for further implementation or modification.
