Nigeria’s independent revenue crossed the N1 trillion mark in 2021, it was learnt on Wednesday.

Independent revenues are generated by the Federal Government from agencies captured under the Fiscal Responsibility Act.
They include the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), the Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation (NDIC), the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA), among others.
Other revenues in the same year amounted to N2.80 trillion.
