THE state government has vowed to deal with anyone, apart from members of the State’s Signage and Advertisement Agency (OYSAA), collecting mobile advert’s tax from motorists.
It noted that local government authorities have stopped collecting the rate since the establishment of OYSAA.
The Director General of Oyo State Signage and Advertisement Agency (OYSAA) ,Temilola Segun Adibi, said this at Ibadan while harping on the need for commercial vehicle operators in the state and concerned people to remit their Mobile Advertisement Tax Into Agency’s coffers in due course.
Adibi, who disclosed this while speaking with Journalists, stressed that the mobile Advert Tax collection has been withdrawn from Local Government Authority since the establishment of Oyo State Signage and Advertisement Agency (OYSAA).
He said, “The authority to collect Mobile Advert Tax has long been withdrawn from the Local Government Authority since the establishment of Oyo State Signage and Advertisement Agency (OYSAA) and legal action will be taken against any Local Government Official or unauthorized individual who interrupt the activities of the Agency by mounting illegal tax collection point anywhere in the State.
“The established Law of the State Signage Agency (OYSAA) gave the agency the power to regulate, control and administer everything that has to do with Advertisement all over the State, so those parading themselves as agents of local government and collecting illegal monies should desist or face the wrath of the law,”According to him, when an organization buys a mobile sticker in state for its vehicle, the vehicle is entitled to use the sticker across the country, which is why it is called a national programme.
He maintained that advertisement agencies all over the world were expected to pay fees for displaying their advertisement boards to the coffers of the state government, hence the need for all the companies concerned to fulfil their obligations to the government.
He said all vehicles, whether cars, trucks, buses or pick-up vans that have any form of advertisement on them are to have the mobile stickers from accredited agent of the State Agency.
According to him, OYSAA Sticker is a form of tax payment to the government that will also boost the Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) of the State.
