Mumibaby: I know them and how terrible they can be, but I have also seen people who have successfully corrected this. I recently had to pay 1.2m for something I was to pay about 800k for. I paid because the package was urgent for a health purpose, if not I would have dragged it. I already sent a protest letter to the Area Comptroller, my loss anyway. Things don't work as they are supposed to |

Bullfallo:Not correct people pay duties on gifts, except the item was shipped as DTP meaning DUTY AND TAXES PAID by the shipper and this is obviously not. |

fxexperts: Lol. I noticed that Nigerians are easily swayed especially by people who seem to be on their side. We have been so beaten as a people that we can hold on to what seems like a lifeline even if its false hope. We should rather face the government who are in charge of these policies and vent to them. Anyway its a learning curve for you. Its not rubbish I was spewing rather fact. 1 Like |

Sheuns: You have refused to learn and obviously you don't know what you are talking about, but its fine. You just have to be humble and learn. I am tired trying to teach you. As regards this case; 1. I can bet my ass that the shipper didn't declare the amount that was shown on the screenshots. Nigerians like to get around the system by undervaluing. Some even overvalue the cost so the courier company can pay them that incase of loss, but when duty is calculated, they cry. 2. Customs uses the market value of things that they find to be undervalued. So go check the prices of these items online. The price might tally. 3. Lastly if the duty was computed on the invoice value based on the screenshot, the duty to be paid is NGN 526,803. He can get this done if he follows up with them or present this to customs to review. If he can talk to a senior officer, it should be resolved or wait for feedback with the courier company. Below is a breakdown of he is expected to pay using the invoice value 1 Like

Sheuns: You are confirming my point about your ignorance on this case. Just because people do it wrongly does not make it the correct thing to do. Plus this isn't a cargo shipment. JSYK. There is no fixed cost for customs duty only fixed rates e.g 10% etc. You claim to know that what was sent was not from customs. How is that? Do you know the intricacies of computing and finalizing duty assessments till the exit note stage? I guess not. You are talking to someone with years of experience in this field, I own a customs duty software as well.. lol. Duties are computed based on the cost of the item, insurance and freight and other landing cost. Mind you as an importing country, this is not done using your local currency as base. They use the foreign currency you purchase in, and then convert it to naira. So the higher your exchange rate and cost the higher the duty. See how govt policies can affect all strata of your life? You should just learn from me, what I am telling you is real and correct. I am not arguing for anything. I know this process like the back of my palm. 1 Like |

Sheuns: Lol you speak with a lot of ignorance. All facilities in the Aiport belongs to the government, it is managed by them even when you take a lease on them. Customs duty are done per piece and not in bulk. Thats why it is called Single Goods Declaration. Google SGD and don't lead peope astray Are you also aware that any item that comes into the country is an import and duty must be paid? And for you to export out you must first clear the shipment? |

Jefferyzz: If you have your proof of payment you can go there and present the receipt. It will be worked on. The only reason customs revalued it will be because the shipper understated the value. 1 Like |

Evercurious: Whether they are political arm, is left for you, them or anyone who sees it that way. That's a deviation from my argument I am saying that you cannot give a farmer to lead a tech company, even if he has a good interest at heart. Spirituality alone does not make one a good leader. The choice of pastor is the right one, assuming they have also considered spirituality. Stay true to yourself! |

Evercurious: Lol. You must not understand the rudiment of top management. You think because it is a church it should not be given to excellent people. Even the apostles in the bible were people of excellence. If you have not been excellent in your personal space, should I now give you an organisation to manage? Think beyond your sentiments |

Religion the opium of the masses. When people get high on religion they attribute everything to it. Religion is not spirituality/relationship with your God. Imagine what the man would have gone through at a young age. Run away from religion and its deceits, have a relationship with your maker instead. 1 Like |

If these ones have other things going well in their lives, they would have gone to face their businesses. Clownery. Most Nigerian politicians cannot function outside politics, that's why they keep fighting to remain in power. 54 Likes 7 Shares |

The natural cause of earth is for it to be self-sufficient. Self-sufficiency means self-multiplication and preservation. If we have feminine men and masculine women this negates the natural cause of life. Earth will go extinct. Yes, we can have deviants, but it is unnatural for a male to be feminine. What is common is natural and what isnt is not natural. 3 Likes |

The government is powerful, be you innocent, guilty or strong-willed. If determined it can mar you. That's why he who wields it must have the interest of all at heart. Hoping for a resolution to the various uncertainties and turmoil his arrest has brought. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Haha. A government that rode on propaganda and lies to power, will only offer the same. How will a President on a semblance of historic day come out to say what has not been confirmed? Does it not seem weird to both the supporters and non supporters? What did we do to deserve this? Not just the government but its supporters who never see wrong in things like this. 8 Likes |
