Note that you must pay for custom duties on every phones gotten from overseas this period. I was told that they have been given a target to meet this period and that isn't too good for us buying things abroad. It's so disheartening. My advise for you is to shun singular phones and other expensive items abroad this period to avoid custom craze. I'm so sad as I type this. I got hammered today when I went to pick up my item only to be asked to pay custom charges. What's the charges all about? When has mobile phones become contraband in Nigeria? Do we manufacture phones here? May God help us
