“Zacch is an innovator who consistently turns his creative ideas into change-making actions. He is a disciple of the ‘think-and-do’ school of changemakers. He will reform Nigeria’s tax system for the benefit of Nigerians. Give him a task, and it will be done and done well,” the President states.

Mogaji Tegbe in a congratulatory message read in parts;
I celebrate my brother, the Executive Chairman of the Federal Inland Revenue Service Dr. Zacchaeus Adelabu Adedeji, FCA on the the occasion of his 46th birthday.
Zach, as he is fondly called, is an enigma who has distinguished himself in the corporate world and in public service by a dint of competence and hard work,. A look at his resume shows the awesomeness of his achievements at a relatively young age, an inspiration to the coming generation.
Despite his sterling academic and professional achievements, he maintains an humble mien and relates well with all strata of society.
Today as always, I pray that the Almighty continues to uplift you as you serve our Nation and humanity in general and May he bless you with long life in good health.
