Illegal taxation: Tourism industry in Imo risks shutdown as hoteliers give govt 14-day ultimatum

He argued that as the second highest employers of labour after the government in the state, the unabated activities of the illegal revenue collectors had continued to deal a devastating blow to the industry. “More often than not, we have suffered a setback through the activities of some criminal elements who subject the members of our Association to extortion and seal up our hotels on trumped up charges with impunity.

“All our Hotels have complied with the Federal Government directive and the government has visited our hotels and has given us a clean bill of health.
