Travel › Re: Luggage Above N50,000 Attract Duties - Customs Reminds Passengers by Gucciboy1(m): 10:00am On Oct 28, 2019 |
djdutch: The Nigeria Customs Service has reemphasized that passengers passing through any Nigeria international airports can only be allowed to go through with goods or items with only N50,000 or less current market value. Comptroller-General of Customs, Col. Hamid Ali (retd) This clarification was made by the Public Relations Officer of the Service, DC Joseph Attah on behalf of the Comptroller-General of Customs.
According to Attah, the clarification became necessary following a “misleading narrative on the social media by a woman who claimed that she was ill treated at the Abuja Airport by Customs on the bases of her gender and tribe because she was asked to pay duty on a personal item she brought into the country.
Attah said : “The attention of the Nigeria Customs Service has been drawn to a misleading narrative by a woman(name withheld) whose claim of being ill treated at the airport on the bases of her gender, tribe or where she comes from is going viral on the social media”. “The woman arrived the country aboard BA083 at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja had claimed that she was singled out and slammed with Customs Duty payment for one pair of shoes and “a mini boy bag” that should have been allowed to pass freely as personal effects”. “There is therefore the need to make public what actually transpired to put the record straight, especially as she maliciously introduced gender, tribal and other unnecessary sentiments into what was simply a case of being told to pay duty as what was in her possession was far above the allowable value of N50,000.00 and certainly beyond what normal discretion would allow”. “Upon routine search of this passenger’s luggage, operatives discovered a Loius Vuitton bag and shoe. Obviously knowing the luxury brand (Loius Vuitton), she was asked to produce the receipt which will be the basis for duty calculation or not. She could not produce the receipt of what she claimed she bought at the duty free shop at the point of departure, saying the receipt was with her husband who did not travel with her”. “The officers had to take the long route of ascertaining the current worth of her items through the internet. The luxury items were found to be worth N570,467.40k.
Consequently, appropriate duty assessment of N165, 692.25k was made and given to her to pay into Federal Government coffer. Since she could not immediately pay, a detention notice was given to her showing that the items would remain with the Nigeria Customs Service until she pays and brings evidence of payment before they will be released to her”. “Instead of paying the assessed duty and pick up her items or request to see any superior officer should she have any reservation on the assessed value, she took to use of the social media drawing all sorts of conjectures, gender (even when the officer, Ms Essien who attended to her is a lady), tribe etc and even inciting the public against the Service…”. “For the avoidance of doubt, we are aware that many Nigerians complain about the allowable amount of N50,000.00, but until the law is changed, Nigeria Customs Service will continue to enforce the extant law that says personal effects shall not exceed the value of N50,000.00. Anything more than the approved value is considered Merchandise in Baggage and therefore liable for duty payment. We therefore call on members of the public to disregard these conjectures and give assurances of our resolve to treat all Nigerians with deserved courtesy and respect in the discharge of our statutory functions,” he added

Phones › Re: Can Two Phones Have The Same IMEI Nunber? by Gucciboy1(m): 10:42am On Oct 27, 2019 |
oloyedayo: My brother bought an infinix hot 7 at slot in VI Lagos sometimes in July this year. He traveled to his village, Igboho in Oyo state where he was picked up by police undercover agents (SIB) for phone theft. His offence was that the phone he bought from slot in Lagos was stolen at a church in Jos. We have to request that some one bring the phone box and receipt from Lagos to igboho, after which the SIB release him to us that they have seen evidence that he bought the phone. My fear now is that they can pick him up again if they track same IMEI again. What should we do.
I contacted slot and they said he should visit the store where the phone was purchased. But can two phones have same IMEI? 2 phones can't have the Same IMEI number, but you can change yours. |

adonis89: this wat its saying. I don't understand the better credit record they meant. It means you haven't been crediting your account with enough money. And to them, it means that you don't have a source of income to pay back the loan at the stipulated time. The major reasons why loans don't get approved is because of low credit score. Access bank have an app for loans, download that and try it too, if you have an Access bank account Or consult your bank customer service to know if you're eligible for a loan, they might need collateral. |

GistGoViral: John Dumelo has been called out by Twitter users after he was pictured holding the waist of a student of the University of Ghana.
The popular actor, who was recently elected NDC parliamentary candidate for Ayawaso West Wuogon, shared photos of himself and some students from University of Ghana during their matriculation last Saturday on his Twitter handle.
He captioned the photos: "I interacted and took over 2000 pictures with freshers of the University of Ghana during their matriculation yesterday. Even though the time was limited I thank you all for showing up."
But Twitter users felt one of the photos was inappropriate because he place his hands around the waist of a female student and they slammed him for being "gross and predatory".

Gratitude to Alh Gambo Ladan,the Vice Chairman PPRC who played a pivotal role to ensure that the victim is brought to book so that it will serve as a deterrent to others.
