EDSA Fails to Pay Millions in GST Collections – NRA Boss Bangura

The Commissioner General of the National Revenue Authority (NRA), Jeneba Bangura, has publicly called out the Electricity Distribution and Supply Authority (EDSA) for its continued failure to remit Goods and Services Tax (GST) collection.

In an recent media engagement, Commissioner Bangura revealed that despite the GST being a pass-through tax paid by the public on their electricity bills, the funds are not making their way into the government’s coffers.

The NRA chief emphasized that the authority has been in active communication with EDSA leadership to resolve the bottleneck. However, she noted with frustration that these discussions have yet to yield any tangible “fruits.”

“We are in communication with EDSA, but that is not yielding any fruits, currently,” Commissioner Bangura stated.
