Seyi Alade, the Director of Legal Services at the Lagos State Internal Revenue Service (LIRS) has disclosed that the state government has shut down 34 companies over failure to remit personal income tax of their employees and non-remittance of other taxes worth N356.12 million.
Seyi, who made this known on Monday while addressing a state-wide tax law enforcement exercise, said the offices shut down include operators within the state’s hospitality sector.
According to him: “These companies deduct personal income taxes from their employees’ salaries at the end of each month and charge consumption taxes on goods and services purchased by customers.

“Unfortunately, some unpatriotic firms withhold these payments, illegally converting the funds for their own use,” he said.
