In a move to plug leakages and shore up revenue, the federal government has directed the Office of the Accountant General of the Federation (OAGF) to immediately commence the presidential directives on 50 per cent automatic deduction from the internally generated revenue (IGR) of Federal Government
Owned Enterprises (FGOEs).

The CRF is an account in which revenues from taxes, statutory allocations from federation account, and other federally-collected revenues are deposited and disbursed.

According to the circular, all partially-funded federal government agencies / parastatals (receiving capital or overhead allocation from the federal government’s budget) should remit 50 per cent of their gross IGR, while all statutory revenues, like tender fees, contractor’s registration, and sales of government assets, among others, should be remitted 100 per cent to the sub-recurrent account.
