Hundreds Of Nigerian Graduates Quit Kano Internal Revenue Service Job Over N35,000 Salary
Kano, (An24)- Barely three months after their employment, not less than 300 of the 765 graduates engaged as revenue collectors, with the Kano Internal Revenue Services were believed to have dumped their job, due mainly to a paltry salary of N35 per month, which they described as not only poor but contrary to what was earlier promised.
According to one of the newly engaged graduates, who dumped the employment, who declined to identify himself, confided in the newsmen that the Service failed to fulfil some of the promises, made to them.
Referring to the service salary scale, he disclosed that majority of them were influenced to abandon their earlier engagement and embrace the tax generation job but only to be remunerated, with N35, 000 monthly.
Also, our source revealed that following the autonomy attained by the KIRS, the Service offered them a better salary package than what they were earning in their former firms of engagement but sadly ended up being paid N35,000 as graduates.
Contacted for reaction to the development, the KIRS Public Relations Officer, explained that the Service Executive Chairman, Sani Abubakar Dambo is out of the state for Lesser Hajj, pointing out that no one can make comments on his behalf.
Meanwhile, another source at the KIRS, also confirmed that a substantial number of those recently engaged have dumped the job, without notification.
