, this
essay will examine the importance of paying taxes and other civic obligation that is
equally important.
Taxation plays an important role in the development
of the society
. It has made it possible for the government
to realise their social and economic goals. For example
, over eighty percent of the government
internally generated revenue comes from the personal income tax, and the larger proportion of this
revenue generated are used to provide infrastructural facilities such
as free health services, construction of roads and schools. In my opinion, there is no doubt that failure on the part of the people to fulfil their duties of paying tax would impede the development
of the society
.

is one of the civic responsibilities of the citizens .
