Tax planning isn’t just about filing your returns. It’s a core part of business strategy that can either weigh down or lift up your bottom line. For many small and medium-sized enterprises in Nigeria, navigating tax obligations remains one of the most complex and misunderstood aspects of running a business. That’s why BusinessDay’s digital department is convening the July edition of its SME Clinic, with the theme “Tax Planning for SMEs: How to Minimise Your Tax Liabilities.”
The virtual webinar is scheduled for Thursday, July 31st, 2025, and will be streamed live on BDTV via YouTube, giving entrepreneurs, accountants, and business owners direct access to tax professionals and finance experts, all from the comfort of their own space.
Speaking on the importance of this edition, Linda Ochugbua, Digital Sales Manager at BusinessDay, said:
“Understanding tax responsibilities and knowing how to optimise them can save businesses millions. This clinic will help SMEs get practical answers to the questions they often struggle with, like how to legally reduce tax burden, when and how to file, and what deductions they might be missing.”
The panel includes a rich lineup of finance and tax professionals:
– Oladejo Adeyemi, Associate Director, Commercial Practice, Lagos
– Ubong Ita, Finance Expert and Software Development Consultant
– Ebosetale Okhueliegbe, Tax Auditor and Gender Analyst
– Olajide Banjo, Accounting and Finance Professional
– Taiwo Oladipupo, Group Tax Manager at Dufil Prima Foods Ltd.
Moderated by Ethel Adonu, a social media specialist, the webinar will cover key areas including tax-efficient strategies for small businesses, common compliance pitfalls, the role of bookkeeping in tax reduction, and how technology is shaping modern tax practices.
The SME Clinic continues to serve as a vital platform for business owners and aspiring entrepreneurs seeking growth and compliance insights in an evolving economy.
