Reports suggest that the FIRS slammed her with a staggering N75
million tax bill and some of the tax proceeds are reported to be related
to the purchase of her N500 million mansion.
Yesterday, June 22, 2016 popular blogger, Linda Ikeji was accused of evading tax and denying her Banana Island mansion.
The former model was
said to be in trouble with the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) for
evading N75 million tax bill. Reports suggest that the FIRS slammed her
with a staggering N75 million tax bill and some of the tax levies are
reported to be related to the purchase of her N500 million mansion.
Now, Linda exclusively told Pulse those rumours are false as she works as an individual and not a company.
According to her, "Firs go after companies not individuals. And I was operating as an individual," she said.

She wrote, “So
Wizkid and I met with the Commissioner of Police today and when the
Commissioner asked me what I wanted them to do with the case...I told
him that I wanted peace.”
“And
the reason why I insisted on peace and not to drag the matter further
i.e go to court, is because Wizkid and his lawyers have been apologizing
since Friday, up until today!”
Linda Ikeji reported Wizkid to the Lagos State Commissioner of Police following the latter’s outburst on Instagram.
