Historical development of taxation in Nigeria

The historical development of taxation in Nigeria traces the evolution from pre‑colonial revenue systems through British colonial ordinances to the modern National Integrated Tax System (NITS). Mastering this timeline is essential because exam questions often ask for key dates, legal instruments, and the rationale behind major reforms that shape current tax policy.
