Ugandan Revenue Authority

Tax collection is one of the major ways that governments use to generate its’ revenue. In fact, taxes are the lifeblood of a government as without them, the government is paralyzed. This is based on the fact that it’s through the tax revenue that the government develops the nation accordingly in matters of education, health, infrastructure, and social and economic sectors. It’s through taxation that the resources of the nation are distributed to all the members of the society, whether rich or poor. However, despite the importance of taxation to a country, most citizens detest taxation. As a result, most of them end up lying on their income tax returns as they feel the pain of giving their hard earned money to the government and left behind to live paycheck to paycheck. One of the major reason for the resentment by the citizens is that they feel that their money is not used appropriately, or in some cases, such as Africa, the money benefits only a few individuals who are in authority.
