ABSTRACT
The major sources of the total foreign exchange accruing to out country comes form oil Beanies which everyone is undoubtedly aware has declined considerably. Consequently there has been a fall in the federation account. It then means that a state such as Enugu state with its major recurrent revenue emanating from its share of federation account will invariably intensity its efforts at internal revenue generation.
Except other non-oil revenue sources are vigorously tapped a bleak economic future is imminent revenue generating exercise are difficult in normal times to accomplish because increase in taxes levies as revenue base are sensitive issues. During economic recession the task is doubled the need to evade civil duties become stronger instead of performing the civil responsibilities.
The researcher saw the need to increase and improve on internal revenue generating effort in the state particularly as Enugu state is a case of worry to everybody in this period of economic recessive bondage and austerity.
