The companies are involved in the under-remittance of taxes which necessitated a critical review of the tax-compliance level of the company,\u201d a statement by Abdullahi Ahmad, FIRS director of communications and liaison department, quoted Nami to have said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The statement added that the group\u2019s performance does not reflect in its tax obligations and compliance level in Nigeria.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u201cThe level of non-compliance by Multi-Choice Africa (MCA), the parent Company of Multi-Choice Nigeria (MCN) is very alarming. The parent company, which provides services to MCN has never paid Value Added Tax (VAT) since its inception.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The FIRS chairman said that Nigeria contributes 34 percent of total revenue for the Multi-Choice group, adding that the next to Nigeria from intelligence gathering is Kenya with 11 percent and Zambia in third place with 10 percent.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">According to him, the rest of African countries where they have presence, accounts for 45 percent of the group\u2019s total revenue.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u201cInformation currently at the disposal of FIRS has revealed a tax liability for relevant years of assessment for N1.82 trillion and $342.5 million,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u201cUnder FIRS powers in Section 49 of the Companies Income Tax Act Cap C21 LFN 2004 as amended, Section 41 of the Value Added Tax Act Cap V1 LFN 2004 as amended and Section 31 of the FIRS (Establishment) Act No. 13 of 2007, all bankers to MCA &amp; MCN in Nigeria were therefore appointed as Collecting Agents for the full recovery of the aforesaid tax debt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u201cIn this regard, the affected banks are required to sweep balances in each of the above-mentioned entities\u2019 accounts and pay the same in full or part settlement of the companies\u2019 respective tax debts until FULL recovery. This should be done before the execution of any transaction involving the companies or any of their subsidiaries. It is further requested that the Federal Inland Revenue Service be informed of any transactions before EXECUTION on the account, especially transfers of funds to any of their subsidiaries.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Nami noted that it was important that Nigeria puts a stop to all tax frauds that have been going on for too long.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">He added that all companies must be held accountable and made to pay their fair share of relevant taxes including back duty
