Very unsserious senate with misplaced priority. Does wearing uniform change the economic challenges?

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.

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.

Billyonaire:
Both sides of the arguments has a point, I think what has happened here is the war of ego. He needs to wear the Customs uniforms as a morale booster the officials of the organization and to show that he is operating as a Custom Officer instead of Buhari's personal attack dog.

The Senate wants him to wear the uniform to show that he is answerable to Nigerians and not Buhari as a person, but I equally think that asking him to wear uniform is to reduce his ego and make him appear more of a servant to Nigerians than a boss of the people.

I think the man himself is not very intelligent in how he approaches issues. No one is above the People. And the Senate represents the People of Nigeria as they were elected to serve the People by the people.

Buhari must warn his team that they must humble themselves before the Senate or should be relieved of their position.

But then, the President does not obey the rule of law, so his nominees are equally learning from the 'above-the-law' President.
