Tinubu The National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has condoled with the family of Hamman Tukur, former Chairman of Revenue Mobilization Allocation and Fiscal Commission, who died at the weekend. Tinubu in a statement by his Media Officer, Mr Tunde Rahman, on Sunday, described Tukuras a distinguished Nigerian who served the country creditably in different areas of specialisation. The APC National Leader commended the former RMAFC chairman for standing firm and holding to the ideals of professionalism and transparency while in office during the time of President Olusegun Obasanjo. He said, “though he was appointed by President Obasanjo in 1999, Tukur refused to be cowed in the discharge of his duties and implementation of the revenue allocation formula and other issues around revenue allocation. ”He left indelible marks at RMAFC, leading the way in resolving several disputed oil wells among states in the Niger Delta region and monitoring sources of revenue from both oil and non-oil sectors. ”His efforts led to important improvement in accruals to the Federation Account during the period.” The APC National leader further prayed that Almighty Allah would grant the soul of the former RMAFC chairman eternal rest and grant his family the fortitude to bear the loss.
