Senator Adeola To Hameed Ali - Appear Before Senate In Customs Uniform Or Resign by 360frolic(m): 9:20am On Mar 13, 2017
Senator Solomon Adeola has called on Hammed Ali, Comptroller-General of Customs, to resign if he won't wear uniforms while appearing before the Nigerian Senate.



In a statement by his Media Adviser, Chief Kayode Odunaro, Senator Adeola said that the Senate resolution summoning Ali to appear in Custom Service uniform and rank was aimed at protecting the organization’s integrity.

The statement reads, “We have had a Major General, Haladu Hanniya as head of FRSC wearing the agency’s uniform as well as a Major Danjuma Maigari wearing even the KAI uniform in Lagos State, all in a bid to promote agencies they lead.

“This is not the Abacha military era when a Sole Administrator was appointed to head the Nigerian Customs.”

“Except in covert operations, an officer in these organizations operating without uniform could be taken to be performing illegal duty or worse, be taken as not representing the institution at all.

“And as stated on the floor of the Senate in plenary, the Comptroller General is a rank that can only be worm on uniform and not on mufti.”

''There is concern among officers and men of the Customs Service on the appointment of 'outsider' to head the agency as it is a morale killer, career progression inhibitor as well as damaging to the organizational growth of the service stressing that there may be need to amend the Nigerian Customs Act to restrict appointment of CG to career officers as it is done in the Nigerian Police Force, the Nigerian Immigrations and the Nigerian Prisons Service.

"The APC-led Government of President Muhammadu Buhari was elected on the promise of change, adherence to rule of law and renunciation of impunity in any forms. The story we hear daily is the arrogance and high-handedness of the CG and name dropping of the President. We had it on good authority of his reluctance to be answerable to the Minister of Finance as stipulated in laws of the land. We that were elected cannot look the other way while the people we represent are subjected to avoidable hardship orchestrated by an unelected appointee in a bid to cure the inefficiencies of the agency he leads. We are in a democracy," the Senator added.

Why is the senate chasing shadows over uniform or not? The last custom DG that wore uniform all his career even while asleep stole so much that over 17 luxury cars each worth over N12mil was found in his personal warehouse. Did the uniform prevent the man from stealing like poverty reigns supreme in his generation?

They should concentrate on why the custom DG wants vehicles already plying the roads to go for vehicle verification after making it through the borders; and why the custom has decided to be ransacking warehouses at the dead of night to cart away bags of rice belonging to peasant traders after the said rice has successfully passed thru the borders.

All these uniform and non-uniform is just cherry-picking and an empty d1ck measuring contest!

I wonder how an outsider will be heading custom while the officers are there for that appointment .it really goes a long way to explain the change mantra of APC lead government as fake on its own. it is demoralizing to the men of custom .impunity at its peak if i may say .Anyways i support the senate for this step they are taking blc there is no way all of them could be corrupt for another person to head them.

Those people saying uniform doesn't matter should realize something.... People are not happy that an outsider came from nowhere to head that agency simply because his brother is the president.

We all know how army look down on other agencies as second to them hence the man is seeing it as belittling for him to put on the uniform. The truth of the matter is that if you can't take the heat, the get out of the kitchen.

If he can't put it on to boost the morale of his people in the agency to show them a little sense of belonging then he should resign... He's not bigger than Nigeria and Nigeria is not his own.

If he can't be proud of being seen in the uniform, then he should take his pride home.

Let him resign.
