People don't realize what "connections" mean! People go to the University, finish without making friends with the connections present among them. I started my hustle in "hard mode"
Hmm! After 15 years of hard work and doing yes sir yes ma,( some of my colleagues mistook my yes sir yes sir for foolishness) grin
Smart me,the yes sir,yes ma were strategies to hold onto as connects. Drop the job,ram into businesses and yes those yes sir yes ma are the connects that gave me the helping hand till date.
Baba we go all dey alright.

My brother, it wasn't easy. Fresh out of NYSC (squandered all the allawee), struggling with professional exams, courses on taxation, supply chain management and general program management. Those 6 months roaming around Diplomatic Drive in Abuja weren't fun. No money, struggling to pay my rent in Jahi as my Dad felt I should return home and sit in, while he works his contacts for those type of job placement promises that take 10 years for fulfillment. The people I met around that vicinity shaped my outlook towards life, I realized wealth was not made just transferred - you just need to know where to look!
90% of very wealthy and very very successful people I have come across and was opportune to speak to about how they turned out to be successful in life be it business wise,politically, top post in offices,tend to have a helping hand ( connect). Either by father,mother, family,godther,godmother,boss or a good samaritan. To those few fractions of the very wealthy ones who beat their chest to say they did it on their own,i doff my hat.

Truth is it ain't easy brother.

I understand you perfectly, the Nigerian situation doesn't give you that option. I'm an accountant, and now have the luxury of choosing my jobs. Before 6 years ago, I didn't have the luxury or the necessary connections to leverage upon. Now I do!

By short oil.. How long or how many miles does it take for engine oil to drop to the low mark?

Some times kazeem ride on our ignorance and over meticulousness..

Engine shorting oil is not a death sentence.. How much be the engine oil to be topping self as against buying the "new" engine or ringing.

My car consumes approximately 1 litre between servicing..
Let's do small maths..
Let's assume 1 liter engine oil = 3k,.. I service 4 times a year, total 12k worth extra engine oil..
Now Let's assume my engine cost 200k.. How many years will it take me to consume 200k oil?

If the oil shortage gets worse, I will step down to a cheaper oil & keep topping the oil..
No ringing or changing engine because of small oil burn..
This my oga,sense will no kill you grin
You be mathematcian? grin

Please is there away of knowing the releasing officer name from any of the custom documents. There is one officer name on one of the papers
Yes it is there! My agents advise,reach out to the dubious clearing agent,let him know you are aware of how he short changed you on the duty paid. And you are so taking this up with him unless he is willing to go through (assist in the process) with the package upgrade which you are willing to pay for.

Reason is the releasing officer knew the duty wasn't paid completely before releasing the car to your agent. If will be a tough task for a new agent to walk to the releasing officer to ask for a package upgrade.

If this doesn't work,kindly revert back.

Please can one use another agent in rectifying this?
My major challenge is reliable agent cause most are out to rip buyers off.
Yes you can,but you will still need to know the officer that released your vehicle. ( Releasing officer).

Thanks brother awaiting your feedback
I spoke to my agent this morning!
For the correction to be done,you have to get in touch with the releasing officer of your car at the port for a package upgrade.
The releasing officer will tell you how much to pay as well as how to go about it. (Note ... payment would be made into the same account your duty was paid into) in case he wants to play smart,Na naija we dey people can add more woes on your troubles.

That agent is a thief no caps,at least minimum of 1m is suppose to reflect on your duty.

Good luck.

How can I correct this? Because custom issue is not what one should pray to encounter on interstate journey.

As for the agent I have hand him over to God to judge.
I will speak to my agent tomorrow,let's see what he would advise! There are trust worthy agents on nairaland as well,let's hear what their contributions would be as well.

Agent took 1.4m from me but paper reflect 600k as duty other charges made the payment 800k plus from document with me
At least surface duty of 950k to 1m should reflect from that 1.4m instead of the 600k.
Agent no pure.

now I realise how some of these guys sell at ridiculously low amounts. Sometimes i wondered if they have a different place they buy from. Or I only purchase when auction prices are high. I will hold my head high and never deviate from what is right no matter circumstances.
Preach it bro,preach it!!
Trust me I do feel same way too,like am I buying expensively or are those cheap sellers selling accidented or flooded cars. Truth is some buy good cars but slash duty to recover profit.

I know someone that sells brand new 2019,2020 prados,g wagon's and hilux for 5m to 10m lesser than the market price. How him dey take do am? He smuggles through NIGER( NO DUTY) . He is smart enough to sell to only politicans and big men who move around with police and soldiers.
Which custom go stop governor or senators convoy to ask for duty? None.

how did that car leave the port. Most Abuja dealers like having nothing to do with legitimate custom duty.
They might have devalued it,downgrade the year or so,all clearing agent has to do is bribe the customs agent that would be inspecting the car. I dont know if this wuruwuru scam still works.

wonderful. One goat will come tomorrow and be bragging how he bought 2012 Camry for 3.2m and the "greedy" ones are selling 4m. Na like this o.
Now you get where I am coming from! I was just being diplomatic about the whole scenario earlier.
Dealer is a known person to me,buyer preordered the car for N3.1m. Dealer told him he would deliver the car for that amount,and yes he did by slashing custom duty and not informing buyer.

Yes,awoof dey run belle,buyer would find out someday if the god of cars are against him grin

In my previous advice on these Page, it was said both the agent and the delear/owner has their parts in short payment.

But the works hand to hand for price negotiation on clearing either Higher or Lower.
But what matters most is that am sure they will have do 2 things while taking the vehicle down to Abuja, depending on the route taken

1. Increase the price on the duty by making another document while going and settled little or


2. Face the normal settlement of the taskforce on the road with a wavier after payment.

It's a normal practice, if I can say it that way
Normal practice.
