My parents, as lecturers lived in University housing for several years.

Govt did not fix up the houses.

Infact....when the University allocated the house to my parents...they said....na you wey go fix the house...

(Though the University Estate Dept did try to do some thing....kudos to them).

But....in Nigeria...if you live in Government housing.....it is you that will fix the govt housing. And it is going to get worse...with falling oil price.

Infact...when OBJ was monetising houses.....what they were saying back then was....we can no longer look after you anymore.

Maintenance culture in Nigeria, zero!
By the way, I hope they are not expecting government to come and help keep their environment clean

all4naija:

I criticize South Africa based on fact as well as I do to Nigeria. I don't understand what you are talking about. Do you expect me to praise your country when it is not meeting up to expectations? Do you mean I should compliment Zulus for torching African immigrants alive? Jeez! You are one hell of a nationalist. It is not good for any nation that wants to move forward! Too many primitive people living in South Africa though.

RudzSA:
so u do come to your senses in threads made by your people ..lmao

knighttroy:
note the new building is where they were suppose to stay but they are been kept in an old building that looks like a poultry

kestolove95:
Tinz will change...very soon

RudzSA:
but xenophobia is an act done by a few ..u dnt paint the whole nation with the same brush . We are tolerant people considering we might have 10 million foreigners from africa in our country . Whose expectations should it be meeting ? South Africans or yours ? If thers something Nigeria is doing better than us I'd like to know so that we can demand better from our government .but according to you Nigeria does no wrong and S.A is hell on earth . Thers nothing factual in yo fight against South Africa

LeSudAfricaine:
Bingo!!

TonyeBarcanista:
This is SAD...

Ebukaobi:
Jonathan was in office for over 6 years and yet he abandoned Custom officers.

It is shameful that these officers are living in these conditions

Very soon Tonyebarcanista and his bed fellows will tell us it is Buhari's fault
Don't say what u don't kn...was he the CGC...customs are the least paid revenue generating organisation....
I just pray that FG will look into their welfare and not only condemning them....

attention..
Ur signature needs urgent modification as CHANGE is here to stay..
Embrace CHANGE and be good.

SHOCKING LIVING OF CUSTOMS OFFICERS

Officers of the Nigeria Customs Service have been complaining of the dilapidated barracks they call home. Many officers serving in the headquarters, Garki and other units around karu are not happy with their living conditions which some of the officers said it can be compare to abodes for pigs and rats.

I came to know about this when I visited a friend who lives in one of the NCS barracks in Karu site, Abuja. When he told me about all what they are passing through there, I felt so sorry for him. Looking at the environs it’s not meant for humans beings not to talk of law enforcement officers with their families. With such living condition tell me how officers won’t be involve in corrupt and illegal deals in order to leave squalor. Look at how they are surrounded my sucker ways, dustbin and bushes. How can humans be living here? No wonder they refer to the block as block “RC” {Refugee Camp}.

According reports online many housing units have been built for rank and file officers. Looking around I saw some newly built two story building of about thirty rooms per block. When I asked one of the officers he said I should forget about Customs because the state of nepotism in the service is too much. Eager to know what he meant I pressurized him to tell me and he said the new built blocks were supposed to be theirs because in 2012 the house they were living in was demolished by the directives of the former Comptroller General Abdullahi Inde Dikko that a new block be erected. In other for them to have a temporary place to lay their head, they were given a very small room that cannot enter 23incs foam {mattress} but they have to manage it since they were promised by the authorities that it will be for an interim. At the completion of the houses the officers who were living at the house that was demolished since 2012 applied for accommodation in the said house that was promised to them but their countless letters were futile. They regrouped themselves and wrote another letter through the barracks provost of Karu yet the person who was in charge of allocation and accommodation deliberately refused to allocate the houses to them even after coming to see where those officers were staying that it was not good yet he told them to still pack out of that one in two weeks’ time when the officer asked where are they to pack to, he told them that is not his business maybe they don’t know him that he is Mr. Burukunu {Mr. Pepper}. It’s either pack out or he will throw their things out.

Later on the new houses was all allocated to different officers who are his friends, boys, relatives and boys of the Oga at the top at the detriment of those who were occupying it before. In anger one of the officers intruded into our conversation and say nearly all the people that have houses allocated them did have house before but because of they know the Mr. Burukunu so he gave houses again to them while others didn’t have even one to live in with their families.

On my way going out I saw all these building and some rooms are not yet occupied why not just allocate these empty rooms to those who deserve it? Why is it that all this Oga at the top like to see their fellow human suffer like this? Its really uncalled-for. Let us join hands together and fight all these injustice and nepotism in our country please an injustice to one is an injustice to all.

I beg the new leaders of our country and that of the service headed by Col Ali Hameed to do justice to this issue of accommodation in karu barracks.
