esmarcq:
probably because they arr not as much as the general duty staff, ratio of GD to SS is probably 10:1

According to this, there should be a lot of vacancies to be filled out at the level 8 entrance level... How do they then get level 8 GD officers...
If the last recruitment was ten years ago and it takes five years for promotion how did they close the gap of level 8 GD to start recruiting only SS
Confusion plenty... But i sha was really looking forward to GD privileges. Hopefully I can switch

So I found this way back post

https://independent.ng/customs-screens-out-applicants-over-qualifications/?utm_source=&utm_medium=facebook

Where they said “Such people in those kind of disciplines are usually recruited and sent to Customs College for training,” probably referring to GD..
Does that mean that support staff doesn't do serious training..
So many complications...

holyentgold:
support staff are professional in their various field they are also fully Custom Officer
But when it comes to operation General Duty will always take over I mean lead the operation even if the GD is the lowest rank among them

Thanks for the answer
OK but is it possible to convert to GD...
And how do they get GD senior officers if all they are recruiting is support staffs...
Only level 6 and below had GD options

Idbaba01:
Well! From my own understanding I think Support Staff are professional in their field of study and they will be posted to their various fields. Eg doctor,nurse,IT.
While general duty are posted to different operation unit. They do the main customs operations.

Thanks for the answer
But isn't general duty where all the work is...
It's quite confusing as all levels 8 are support staff from the initial recruitment advert...
I hope to head a command someday, so I'm wondering if they'll push some of us to GD

Support staff seems so limiting

NCS Gets 4 DCGs, 11 ACGs, Promotes other 2,722 Customs Officers

The full statistics of the board approval is as follows: DCGs 4, ACGs: 11, DC-CC=35, AC-DC=64, CSC-AC=118, SC-CSC=244, DSC-SC=339, ASC I-DSC=995, ASC II-ASCI=655 and IC-ASC II=257. Of the 2,707 senior officers promoted 204 are support staff.

Guys I've got an important question... What is support staff and are we going to be supporting staff or full staff... I'm a bit concerned about the whole recruitment and confused

Does anyone have any new info ??

From the last recruitment on their website, level 8 training was definitely at Ikeja, Lagos

It might be the same this time around or maybe it would be split into Ikeja and Abuja... But from my understanding Abuja is for senior staffs

Also, I was talking about posting after camp back then

Besides, these days no one asks you to pay any fee for government job... Be guided people.

My humble suggestion is for us to stop criticizing and dragging people who post the little information they have, because the information they share might just be legit and who knows maybe it was changed due to new issues that arise.

All in all, if you hear anything from a source you believe is authentic, please share with us.

Karfcruiz:

When is final list dropping?

Lol... I only heard that camp is in November, so hopefully before then

I'm here info hunting too

To be honest, I'm a bit scared of being posted to the north with bandit trouble and also the southeast with UGM/ESN Ipob them

All the same, beggars cannot be choosers...

Too ease the tension, let me shift the topic small....

NCS vs NPA which one pays more¿¿¿

Also NCS vs FIRS too... ¿¿

some of us did not sleep well last night waiting for list to drop
#HBP

nniero11:

Just pray baaba. things get as e be. The board meeting never finish yet. them go continue tomorow

Una go dey alright Las Las

Any latest information for us ¿¿

SERDEEEQ:


Don't worry they'll call us, as i heard today, the reason behind this another delay is minister of finance have been traveling with president to New work City, but them back home today, so if she review the promotion list tomorrow maybe they'll release our list on Friday if she didn't review it tomorrow then perhaps we'll expect the final list on second week of October or 25 October,

Note: please I'm not saying surely they'll release it this month or 25 October I don't want people to start attacking me with harsh word's, i know some people will even insult me.

So let's just keep on praying.

Your posts are like a roller coaster of hope.. Ups and downs, but it gives of a feeling of relief and information as we are in the dark

Keep it up

More information would be appreciated

Jetochii:
It has dropped.

How far, come and explain why you wrote this...

Has it been released in NCS headquarters and awaiting posting ¿¿
Or you just wanted to unfairly pull our legs ¿¿

People in the house, I got the info that camp is in November... I don't know if it would change with all this minister wahala, but let's stay hopeful
