Despite this, Fowler’s tenure wasn’t renewed, however, many Nigerians have started taking digs at Mr. Tunde Fowler, former Executive Chairman, Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) on social media for the tone of his letter for reappointment. here are the tweets as follows

Now that Babatunde Fowler has been removed and replaced by Mohammed Nami, let's revisit his corrupt cases, extravagant weekly spending on concerts and parties in Lagos, Lies and manipulation in the office.

So, that Babatunde Fowler's tenure as Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) expired and his contract wasn't renewed means he's sacked? Can you say because you finished BSc and didn't further with your Masters means you were expelled from your University?

South West is gradually joining the 5% group with the sacking of Muiz Banire & Babatunde Fowler

Do not blame any northerner for this but kindly blame Buhari for this nepotism

I hope in 2023, we will all learn never to trust Tinubu again.

We must control the narrative be then.

Blame Fowler, Not His Traducers!

I don't know why we've chosen to embark on a long road trip blaming whoever instigated and or leaked the letter authored by Mr. Babatunde Fowler. That's a fault of no one but Fowler's. How could you occupy such a sensitive office and not
