The Comptroller General of Customs (CGC) , retired Col. Hameed Ali, on Tuesday warned that any customs officer caught involved in corrupt practice, would serve the maximum 10-year jail term prescribed by law. Ali gave the warning in Sokoto when he addressed customs officers of Sokoto/Zamfara/ Kebbi Area Command. “The minimum jail term for corrupt officers is five years, but I will make sure that any officer found to be corrupt gets the maximum jail term of 10 years. “This is to serve as a deterrent to any officer who finds himself in the Customs to make money and not to earn money . “I am not saying that there are no good, incorruptible officers in the service, but there are few bad eggs who are giving the service a bad name, ” Ali said.
