The NBS released this information in its 2022 IGR at State Level report.
The 2022 IGR primarily drew from two major revenue sources: taxes and revenue generated by Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs). Within the tax category, Pay As You Earn (PAYE) emerged as the most significant contributor, accounting for a substantial 67.6 percent share of the total tax-generated revenues nationwide.
On the other end of the spectrum, capital gains tax had the smallest share in the year under review, contributing a mere 0.24 percent to the total tax revenue.
