TaxInfo is a Nigerian platform built by engineer Abidemi Adetula to explain tax reforms in plain language and multiple local languages for wider access.
TaxInfo is a platform built to make Nigeria’s tax rules easier to understand. Its founder, Abidemi Adetula, says the idea came from confusion and rumours during online debates about tax reforms. The product focuses on clear explanations and local language access.
TaxInfo was created during a period when Nigeria’s tax reforms became a major topic on social media. Many posts were opinionated or inaccurate, and official explanations often used technical terms that non-specialists struggled to follow.
Adetula says he built TaxInfo to simplify tax information, which means breaking down policies, rates, and obligations into plain English. The platform also supports multiple Nigerian languages, which can help people who are more comfortable reading complex topics in their first language.
In the same profile, Adetula describes how early experiences with basic tech, like sharing files via infrared and later Bluetooth, pushed him toward computer engineering and software development. He later worked in civic technology, which is tech built for public services and everyday governance problems.
Nigeria’s tax compliance gap is partly an information problem. When rules are hard to interpret, people rely on hearsay, and that leads to missed payments, penalties, and mistrust.
Tools like TaxInfo sit in the wider “tax management” space, alongside platforms such as TaxStreem and TaxTim. The key difference is TaxInfo’s focus on education and language accessibility, not just filing or compliance workflows.
For startups and small businesses, clearer tax guidance can reduce admin stress and help founders budget better. For government, better understanding can support voluntary compliance, which is when people pay taxes because the process is clear and the rules feel predictable.
If TaxInfo keeps growing, it could become a front door for tax literacy in Nigeria, especially as reforms continue and more citizens look for simple, trusted explanations.
