Aregbesola said for Nigeria to solve the problem of poverty, the rich must be taxed mercilessly.
Aregbesola stated this while speaking at the 60th birthday of the former governor of Oyo state, Abiola Ajimobi, on Monday, December 16, 2019. The minister said that if the rich failed to address the problem of poverty in Nigeria, their comfort would be taken away by the poor.
Mr. Aregbesola, who was one of the discussants, said one of the best ways to addressing the challenges confronting the country is to tax the privileged rich Nigerians and use the money to create wealth to help the poor. .

“We must mercilessly tax the rich, if we are to cure the problem of poverty. We have two contending forces, the poor and the privileged rich. The rich have no problem, they are comfortable. .
The problem is the poor and they are in the majority. And the point is if the rich failed to address this problem, the comfort of the rich will be taken away, so they must release much of their money to help the poor,”
