Why should anyone be made to pay retroactive duties on a car he innocently bought from a dealer 10 years ago because the dealer connived with some pot-belly custom officers to circumvent the system? Who should pay for the inadequacies of customs? The citizens?
. Ignorance is not an excuse under law. Going by your thinking, why should anyone have to give up a stolen property bought innocently in the market? 1 Like |

Wow, so his disobedience should have been overlooked and cos he is an appointee by your god Buhari ? This is a class of stupidity i'v never seen before.
Did he come in his uniform and the issue on which he was invited for wasn't discussed ? What is the essence of the uniform if it must not be put on ? Tell me please.
You sounded like one who still wish the world mosaic era and not modern civility others are enjoying. You must be from the North or even a Niger man who now claim Northerner in Nigeria. stop being sentimental. if the law mandates him to wear uniform, that would have been another case. he could wear it if he wants to. look, if something is not in the constitution, you can not be forced to do it. you are inadvertently turning the senators into a tin god. 2 Likes |

You bought a family car (e.g Siena) from a dealer who underpaid customs 6 years ago, Ali then ask customs officers to leave the borders ( their primary duty posts) and go out ILLEGALLY on the streets for stop and search, while you are returning from church with your family after being harrased by Police, Road safety, Vio, Latsma, Custom officers asks you to pull over, ask for your custom papers and declare that the dealer whom you bought the car from 6 YEARS AGO didn't pay enough duty.
They order you and your family members out of your car and drive to the custom office while you and your family trek home. Who is doing who?
You really think Custom officers will have the nerve to stop Saraki or Dino's convoy when they are on the move for payment of duty? It is you poverty-infested zombies who throw owambe when you buy your first Golf 2 and 3 that will be their target.

Don't buy a car unless it carries genuine custom duty.
if u dont do this and u get embarrassed along the road then u re at fault.
b4 I paid completely for my car I went with the dealer to custom's offc to verify the duty I was given.
If everybody stops buying car without proper duty smugglers will be out of business and that Will be better for our country.
buy a car without duty at ur own peril.
I work in a place where I cannot be arrested for fake duty, yet I insisted on having genuine duty. And you think that duty paid for your car is sufficient? When you went to customs office with your custom papers, they only told you the duty paid was OK not that complete duty was paid. I've also done that severally for my car's and my brother's cars. That car you are driving, do you know how the duty was generated? Do you know how much customs estimated the car? You people should not support what you know nothing of. The chairman of Grimaldi was complaining about how customs generate duties for vehicles that they don't publicize the actual estimate of vehicles which they use to generate duties to be paid. Senate should not allow that to work because that your car you think you confirmed from customs will be impounded. 3 Likes |

This is the understanding of someone who is myopic or lacks depth of thinking about this policy. There are no quick wins to fixing a country. In the scenario you have painted one would expect that the public discuss would be how to make the policy more effective without bringing unnecessary hardship on the citizens.
The owner of the Sienna could also have taken advantage of the window created by the Customs to ratify his documents. Will you say someone who bought a stolen car should be allowed to keep enjoying the vehicle because he did not take the pain to do what is right.
Please governance is not for kids. We should learn to engage our minds and take a wider and far more reaching look at issues. The policy is the BVN of car importation in Nigeria and like the BVN it will assist in no small measure to curb corruption especially of custom officers.
Is the policy perfect? No.
Is it a good direction to go? Yes .
Can it be improved upon? Yes.
Who will assist in identifying the possible loop-holes ? We citizens.
Why the citizens? They are familiar with all the channels that government officials use to circumvent the system and cheat on citizens daily.

It is not the job of the public to go about verifying the customs clearance for everything imported that we buy including toothpick , shirts, etc They should start doing their jobs from today, fight the corruption in their service that enables cars with fake clearance to land in the streets and fight smugglers.
