The Comptroller General of the Nigerian Customs, Abdullahi Dikko Inde, has turned in his resignation letter to President Muhammad Buhari indicating he wishes to leave the job on August 18, according to sources in the presidency. Mr. Dikko has two years to the expiration of his tenure, and it is unclear why he has decided to go in one week’s time. Our sources however note that several Customs leaders are currently being investigated for corruption and some may be fired or arrested. President Buhari is reportedly looking to fill Dikko’sposition with a Customs officer from the South- South. It is understood that President Buhari had earlier turned down the resignation letter, asking Mr. Dikko to give him time to study the Customs and its operations, but that he has now accepted the resignation. SaharaReporters learnt that the President, whose tenure has seen officials of several government agencies turning in similar resignation letters, has resisted such attempts. Our sources say Buhari prefers to watch and then fire them the way he did with former NSA Sambo Dasuki and military Service chiefs recently. It would be recalled that in 2009, one Olajide Oyewoleaccused Alhaji Inde Dikko of having forged his academic credentials with his help. In a video testimony obtained by SaharaReporters, Oyewole said the Customs boss illegally obtained Certificates No 10912 and 10993) belonging to the Nigerian Institute of Management, and also forged the West African Examinations Council Certificate No. NGSG 37836, documents that enabled him to eventually become Comptroller-General of Customs.

SAGA
Still On The
Immigration
Recruitment
Saga

The saga and
provocative debacles oozing
from the Nigeria Immigration
Service recruitment is becoming
odious and embarrassing to
Nigerians especially the youths
who are at the receiving end.
It is often said that nothing is
hidden under the sun and all
things done in the secret will be
revealed someday. Apparently,
the scandalous and dubious
recruitment which has espoused
by the Nigeria Immigration
Service (NIS) is becoming glaring
by the day to the chagrin of well-
meaning Nigerians.
The face-saving moves and
tactics the service Comptroller
General–David Parradang
employed to exonerate himself
from blames and culpability has
further escalated the shoddy
deals being perpetrated by him
since assumption of office.
Independent investigations have
shown that the act of sabotage
and delay in the recruitment
exercise or in some cases
recruiting people without issuing
them appointment letters are as
a result of the Comptroller
General’s attempt to over step
his operational mandate as
against the recommendations of
the Prisons, Customs,
Immigration and Fire Service
Board and the presidential
committee set up to look into the
ill fated recruitment exercise of
March 15th 2014, which is a clear
interference and contravention
of the Act establishing the Board
and its parent Ministry of
Interior who are unarguably the
employer of the Comptroller
General.
Some of these attempts to
manipulate the process is
believed to be responsible for
the stampede that claimed the
lives of innocent Nigerians and
leaving many injured during the
botched March 15, 2014
recruitment exercise and the
attendant disgrace and shame it
bequeathed to then President
Goodluck Jonathan-led federal
government.
It was reported that incidences
of counter instructions to the
supervising field personnel of
the service in order to carry out
favoritism of sorts resulted to
the poor organisation which led
to the incidents of death.
It is therefore galling to watch
the Nigeria immigration Service–
a one-time noble institution
being brought to disrepute on
account of narrow and parochial
interests.
We also note with concern, the
high handedness and unethical
conducts by the CG to
circumvent the public service
rules and regulations guiding the
recruitment and promotion into
the paramilitary service. Matters
of recruitment and promotion
are a primary responsibility of
the Board which is now being
sidelined by the CG who
ordinarily is an employee of the
Board and is expected to be
subjected to the
recommendations and approvals
of the presidential committee
and the Board on matters
relating to recruitment and
promotion exercises.
While other paramilitary services
are in compliance with their
terms of references and modus
operandi, it is only the NIS that
is in conflict with the process.
This is one factor that has
continued to fraught the exercise
with favoritism, nepotism and
other social brigandage that
nearly brought the service to its
knees.
Only recently in an attempt to
deceive the Nigerian public on
his innocence, an online news
blog was reported to have
indicted the Board’s director and
other officials, calling for their
probe. This in our findings has
shown that they are not only
spurious but diversionary of the
real questions begging for
answers by the Nigerian public.
We implore Nigerians to
carefully examine the acts
establishing the paramilitary
service and their regulatory
Board to ascertain the level of
damage being done to the
service. However, it is
unthinkable and irrational that
an employee should wield so
much power to exercise full
control of its employer. In other
climes, the Comptroller General
ought to have resigned or sacked
for gross misconduct and for
superintending over a
scandalous recruitment exercise
rather than choosing to use the
media to blackmail individuals in
order to cover his inadequacies.
We therefore call on President
Muhammadu Buhari to deploy
all vigor and intentness to
unravel all the malfeasance
bedeviling the Nigeria
Immigration Service and its
recruitment scams.

May 22nd, 2015 DISCLAIMER ON PURPORTED CUSTOMS RECRUITMENT Consequent upon inundation of the Comptroller-General of Customs Dikko Inde Abdullahi CRF, and Members of Management of the Service about a purported on-going recruitment exercise in the Service, the NCS wishes to state clearly that no recruitment exercise is being conducted now besides the ones that were conducted in 2009 and 2011. Therefore any purported sale of form, invitation for interview and list of recruited candidates being seen any where is fake and did not emanate from the Service. Recruitment process into the Service starts with advertisement of vacancies in print and electronic media, as well as the Service website www.customs.gov.ng, this is followed by examination/ interview training of successful candidates and deployment. The process recognizes only the Federal Character principle of geographical spread. The Nigeria Customs Service is an equal opportunity employer that recruits candidates irrespective of gender, religion or tribe. Interested candidates are therefore advised to avoid being duped and wait until when the Service put up vacancy advertisement through appropriate media. The general public is strongly advised to be suspicious of any offer of customs related job placement, auction sales and contract award especially through the internet and report such offers to the nearest Customs formation.

The Minister of Interior, Abba Moro, on Monday
explained why he is yet to leave office seven
months after he masterminded a poorly organised
recruitment exercise that killed no fewer than 20
applicants in stampedes at overcrowded venues
across the country.
After the March 15 tragedy, several Nigerians
demanded the resignation or dismissal of Mr.
Moro and the Comptroller-General of Immigration,
David Parradang, as well as their criminal
prosecution for involuntary homicide.
The duo, with Mr. Moro more culpable, had put in
place a sham recruitment process that enabled the
interior ministry to extort at least N520 million in
compulsory levy imposed on applicants.
The minister, who initially blamed impatience and
refusal by applicants to abide by instructions for
the tragedy, has since accepted responsibility for
the incident.
He has however refused to step down.
But speaking on a Channels TV’s breakfast
programme, Sunrise, on Monday, Mr. Moro made
it clear he would not resign, saying he would
rather stay put in office to clear the mess caused
by the incidence.
“The point at which we are now is not about
resignation. That time has gone,” Mr. Morro said
in respond to a question over why he refused to
quit despite widespread calls by Nigerians on him
to do so. “At the time (people were calling for his
resignation), I think emotions were very high. I
was in the eye of a storm.
“At that time, a lot of options were on the table…
The issue is do you resign or do you stay to sort
out the problem that have been created?
“I decided that staying and mopping up the mess
caused by the lack of proper implementation of our
plans is better. That’s point we are now.”
The minister said Nigerians should consider the
tragedy as an accident which he too did not plan
for or envisage.
“I also have families. I didn’t set out on that
journey knowing that accident would occur that
would lead to the death of human beings.
“We took everything into proper perspective. If we
had succeeded, a few Nigerians would have
congratulated us for the job well done.
“But now that accident has happened, we will
learn from what happened,” he said.
Mr. Moro also explained why his ministry was yet
to implement a directive by President Goodluck
Jonathan that three family members of each dead
applicant be given automatic employments.
He said after President Jonathan made the
announcement, the Federal Government also set
up a committee over the recruitment tragedy, and
that his ministry preferred to wait for the panel to
present its report before acting.
“Finally, the report is ready, waiting for
submission and implementation,” the minister
said. “The next level is implementation. What I
can say is that the people affected should exercise
understanding and patience. Nobody will allow
further mistakes.”
Only 4,556 vacancies were advertised by the
immigration service, but 520,000 applicants
registered to write the March 15 recruitment test.
Each applicant was required to pay N1,000
processing fee to be eligible to participate.
A PREMIUM TIMES report estimated that the
NIS made at least N520 million from this
compulsory levy imposed on applicants.
The extortion of the job seekers was done in
flagrant disregard of the directive by the House of
Representatives that government agency should
desist from charging applicants taking part in
recruitment exercises.
However, in his reaction to the tragedy at the time,
Mr. Moro attributed the deaths to the applicants’
“impatience.”
“The applicants lost their lives due to impatience;
they did not follow the laid down procedures spelt
out to them before the exercise,” Mr. Moro had
said.
“Many of them jumped through the fences of
affected centres and did not conduct themselves in
an orderly manner to make the exercise a smooth
one,” Mr. Moro had added.
Mr. Moro’s comment sparked anger across
Nigeria, with many citizens taking to social media
to call for his immediate sack.
The Federal Government and the National
Assembly constituted separate committees to
probe the tragedy at the time. But the reports of the
panels are yet to be made public.
