When the president, Muhammadu Buhari, decided to ignore all the senior officers in Nigeria Customs and gave the prime job to a no-nonsense ex-Military officer, many thought he was just being tribalistic...

Now see the result:

Last year, within a duration, Nigeria Customs generated over N162b under the former Comptroller-General and the service was said to have remitted less than half of that amount to government.

But in the seven months of Buhari's administration, Nigeria Customs is said to have generated N903billion and the new Comptroller-General, Hamid Ali, remitted all the N903billion. No story!

This goes to show that TRULY corruption is one of the MAJOR problems against Nigeria's development.

A MAN PURPORTED NOT TO HAVE O,LEVEL CERTIFICATE GENERATED OVER 900B NAIRA IN LESS THAN A PERIOD WITHIN WHICH A PhD HOLDER COULD NOT GENERATE 170B NAIRA. WHAT A SHAME?
YET SOME PEOPLE SAY JONATHAN IS THEIR ROLE MODEL.
ACCORDING TO THEIR DECLARATION, BABA GOD GRANT THEM THEIR HEART DESIRE.

Nigeria, a rich country of poor people.

God bless this man. Whether Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo, Fulani, urhobo, ijaw, itsekiri, we can all work together to make Nigeria great.

God bless PMB
God bless Nigerians
God bless Nigeria.

This guy is busy wrecking families making people commit suicide only for the apc to still complain nigeria is broke... lie Muhammed might say GEJ embezzled d money dis dude is making

Chicken change..money wey no fit update website....Hahahahahahahaa

My uncle who's an importer laments about the overly increased charges from the Nigerian customs.




To be fair to GEJ, the Nigerian customs charged less fees when he was in power.


Now the charges are enormous, one of the reasons goods are now so expensive, the second being the informal devaluation of Naira.

Where is the money and why is our economy going south?

God helep us from corrupt people in this country...may they never com close again to the seat of power.

and there's this thing we CLEAR#1,200,000 during Jonathan and sell something#1,500,000 but today we CLEAR the same thing#1,700,000 and sell something#2,200,000.making additional#200,000 profit from1 units against the time of Jonathan,so WHO is losing? the society!

This is just the beginning

The clearing charges has tremendously increased, that's the secret of the increase in revenue. No rocket science there. Maybe the govt is doing it to encourage local production but the immediate impact is enormous on imported goods. Prices of imported goods have skyrocketed cos of this and our weak currency.

The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS), one of the major revenue generating arteries of the government raked in about N977.09 billion in 2014. The figure was a slight shortfall of N223 billion from the N1.2 trillion projected for last year. The shortfall may not be unconnected with encumbrances in the clearing process at the ports occasioned by the nation’s poor maritime infrastructure. The NCS’ summary of monthly revenue released in Abuja at the weekend showed that the N977.09 billion came from import and excise duties, levies and other fees. The revenue figure showed an increase of N143.79 billion over the N833.4 billion that the service collected in 2013, representing about 15 per cent increase in collection. The breakdown of the figure showed that N586.91 billion out of the amount collected was remitted to the Federation Account while N390.18 was remitted to non-federation account during the year. A further breakdown showed that N511.55 billion was collected from import (cash); N8.59 billion from import duty (NDCC), while N39.76 was collected as fees. The revenue report showed that N203.37 billion was collected from levies; N186.80 billion from Value Added Tax (VAT) and the Common External Tariff (CET) levy accounted for N24.61 billion. A quarterly breakdown of the collections showed that N197.82 billion was collected in the first quarter; N265.81 billion in second quarter, while N249.29 billion and N264.05 billion were collected in third and fourth quarters respectively. The comparison of the quarterly collection during the year revealed that the second quarter accounted for highest, while the first quarter recorded the lowest collection for the year. The Deputy Comptroller- General, Trade and Tariff, Mr. Adewuyi Akinade, explained that the improvement in the collection was due to the service’s resilience in blocking leakages. He noted further that the system audit put in place by the service had helped in enhancing compliance by traders and blocked the potential areas of revenue hemorrhage. Akinade explained that the NCS invested handsomely in capacity building initiatives for its officers through regular training and retraining programmes. He added that such exposures have helped them understand classification and evaluation of goods to enable them to collect appropriate duty. He assured that such programmes would be continuous as the management was poised to move the service to the next level.

i dnt know what people gain from lying. since u all hav phones, y cant u verify your facts before crucifying someone

If only I can have my way, only the Hausas/Fulanis will continue ruling this Country till eternity. They are loyal to their grave.

Look at Yaradua, now Buhari. Even Abacha wasn't as bad as Jonathan. Little wonder the British left them in charge of governance when they left.

Now, watch as the only assholes that will quote me will be the “wanna-be Jews” from the East of the Niger.

That is what am seeing oh,they are just blindfolded and lying when the truth is just in front of them.

I don't know where they gather all these idiots from;how can anybody with a brain believe that the Nigerian customs generated 164bn for the whole of 2015 and remitted only 2bn to the govt? Are you guys this brainless and utterly stupidd? Why can't you verify information properly before coming to post crap online? You guys suck for real. *spits on thread*
