Federal Commissioner Imo Akpan has called for the domestication of the Revenue Mobilization Allocation and Fiscal Commission’s core mandates in Akwa Ibom State.
Akpan highlighted the commission’s mandates, including monitoring revenue accruals and disbursement, reviewing revenue allocation formulae, and advising governments on fiscal efficiency.
The commissioner also emphasized the importance of teamwork in achieving the commission’s goals and promised to ensure the state office runs in synchrony with the headquarters.
Akpan assured the commission’s workforce of adequate welfare and open communication channels to address their concerns.
“We want the Commission’s core mandate to be vigorously pursued and domesticated in Akwa Ibom State during my tenure.
“We stand to achieve great heights if we work as a team. We must be pacesetters in the comity of RMAFC state offices,” he stated.
The Deputy Director and State Coordinator of RMAFC, Mrs. Margaret Archibong, commended Akpan for being realistic about addressing operational issues in Akwa Ibom State.
The Head of Operations, Mr. Tamana KpooBavi, expressed hope that Akpan’s presence would help address challenges and move the RMAFC Akwa Ibom State forward.
