As Executive Chairman of the Delta State Internal Revenue Service (DSIRS), Hon. Solomon Ighrakpata has marked three remarkable years of purposeful leadership, innovation, and outstanding service in transforming the Delta state's revenue administration.

 

Since assuming office, Ighrakpata has spearheaded far-reaching reforms that have modernized tax administration, strengthened compliance, expanded the tax net, and leveraged technology to improve efficiency and transparency. These initiatives have significantly boosted the state's Internally Generated Revenue (IGR), positioning Delta as one of Nigeria's leading states in revenue performance.

 

Working in alignment with the M.O.R.E Agenda of Governor Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, the DSIRS has introduced digital tax solutions, enhanced taxpayer education, improved stakeholder engagement, and simplified tax payment processes, making compliance easier for individuals and businesses alike.


The Service's impressive revenue growth has provided the Delta State Government with greater financial capacity to invest in critical sectors, including road infrastructure, healthcare, education, security, and human capital development. This has reinforced the administration's commitment to delivering sustainable development and improving the quality of life of Deltans.


Reflecting on the milestone, Ighrakpata expressed gratitude to Governor Sheriff Oborevwori for his unwavering support and visionary leadership, as well as to the management, staff of DSIRS, taxpayers, and development partners whose collaboration has contributed to the agency's success.


He reaffirmed the Service's commitment to consolidating on its achievements through continuous innovation, improved service delivery, and policies that promote voluntary tax compliance while supporting economic growth across Delta State.


As DSIRS celebrates three years of record-breaking achievements, the agency remains focused on building a more efficient, transparent, and resilient revenue system that will continue to drive Delta State's development for years to come.
