We are absolutely furious about the recent false reports flying around on social media and online platforms, claiming that our Lagos and Abuja offices were sealed by the Nigeria Revenue Service (NRS) due to supposed non-compliance with Value Added Tax (VAT) and Company Income Tax under the Nigeria Tax Act 2025! This is outrageous and completely baseless!
Our offices across Nigeria, including Lagos and Abuja, are still open and fully operational, and we will continue to serve our customers, partners, and merchants without any interruptions!As a responsible financial technology company in Nigeria, we are fully compliant with all tax obligations and regulatory requirements. We have been working closely and transparently with government agencies and regulatory authorities to ensure our operations meet all statutory standards—something others should take note of!The notice mentioned in the reports is based on a recent, ridiculous industry-wide directive by the NRS demanding payment platforms to separate certain statutory charges in their applications. This is not just about OPay; it’s an administrative requirement affecting multiple operators across the industry! Suggesting that this notice indicates non-payment of taxes is not only FALSE but also utterly misleading!
It’s infuriating that OPay is being unfairly targeted in a situation that affects the entire industry! This kind of reporting not only twists the truth but seems intentionally designed to damage the reputation of a company that has always shown unwavering compliance, transparency, and cooperation with regulators!
Let me make this absolutely clear: the ridiculous rumors flying around online about OPay shutting down or our offices closing are completely false and should be dismissed immediately! This trash talk doesn’t even begin to reflect reality!OPay is here to stay and is more committed than ever to bolstering Nigeria’s digital economy! We are dedicated to delivering secure, reliable, and inclusive financial services to millions of users across the nation, and we won’t let baseless gossip get in our way!
