SHOCKING LIVING OF CUSTOMS OFFICERS

Officers of the Nigeria Customs Service have been complaining of the dilapidated barracks they call home. Many officers serving in the headquarters, Garki and other units around karu are not happy with their living conditions which some of the officers said it can be compare to abodes for pigs and rats.

I came to know about this when I visited a friend who lives in one of the NCS barracks in Karu site, Abuja. When he told me about all what they are passing through there, I felt so sorry for him. Looking at the environs it’s not meant for humans beings not to talk of law enforcement officers with their families. With such living condition tell me how officers won’t be involve in corrupt and illegal deals in order to leave squalor. Look at how they are surrounded my sucker ways, dustbin and bushes. How can humans be living here? No wonder they refer to the block as block “RC” {Refugee Camp}.

According reports online many housing units have been built for rank and file officers. Looking around I saw some newly built two story building of about thirty rooms per block. When I asked one of the officers he said I should forget about Customs because the state of nepotism in the service is too much. Eager to know what he meant I pressurized him to tell me and he said the new built blocks were supposed to be theirs because in 2012 the house they were living in was demolished by the directives of the former Comptroller General Abdullahi Inde Dikko that a new block be erected. In other for them to have a temporary place to lay their head, they were given a very small room that cannot enter 23incs foam {mattress} but they have to manage it since they were promised by the authorities that it will be for an interim. At the completion of the houses the officers who were living at the house that was demolished since 2012 applied for accommodation in the said house that was promised to them but their countless letters were futile. They regrouped themselves and wrote another letter through the barracks provost of Karu yet the person who was in charge of allocation and accommodation deliberately refused to allocate the houses to them even after coming to see where those officers were staying that it was not good yet he told them to still pack out of that one in two weeks’ time when the officer asked where are they to pack to, he told them that is not his business maybe they don’t know him that he is Mr. Burukunu {Mr. Pepper}. It’s either pack out or he will throw their things out.

Later on the new houses was all allocated to different officers who are his friends, boys, relatives and boys of the Oga at the top at the detriment of those who were occupying it before. In anger one of the officers intruded into our conversation and say nearly all the people that have houses allocated them did have house before but because of they know the Mr. Burukunu so he gave houses again to them while others didn’t have even one to live in with their families.

On my way going out I saw all these building and some rooms are not yet occupied why not just allocate these empty rooms to those who deserve it? Why is it that all this Oga at the top like to see their fellow human suffer like this? Its really uncalled-for. Let us join hands together and fight all these injustice and nepotism in our country please an injustice to one is an injustice to all.

I beg the new leaders of our country and that of the service headed by Col Ali Hameed to do justice to this issue of accommodation in karu barracks.

my brother thank you very much for this article, and do u know what makes it even more worse with customs? Nig Customs earns the worst salary package within all the military and paramilitary organisations in nigeria not to even talk of revenue generating agencies....... Customs generate revenue more than FIRS but llook at how FIRS workers are taken care of, this is my 5th year in customs as a graduate but my salary is still 80k, is it with this kind of money that I'll pay house rent feed my family? Pay school fees and pay medical bills? In this Abuja?... In FIRS 80k is the salary of the least level staff..... I wrote something about customs its in my nairaland page, but they didn't take it to the front page, may be you can help us write something anbout customs salaries, for allowance its actually zero no nothing at all....... There is no way officers will not be corrupt without addressing this matter...... Including promotion too, for the last 5years as a graduate I've been wearing 1 star.. Thank you and God bless you

Alright, it's like you need to pray for your Jerusalem, bro.

what is the jerusalem? I don't understand Ūя̲̅ language, I Need clarification pls

jimohibrahim:
So now to you their corruption is okay...

I m on only calling on their new Controller General to look in to it, this org have almost 100billion naira as their budget and the number of customs officers in the whole of Nigeria is not up to 20,000 officers, but their big men steal the majority leaving the officers with poor salaries

ifeoluwasegun:
Are you a customs officer?

Or just feeling their pathetic situation?

I m not an officer but I'm directly effected being a clearing agent

jimohibrahim:
See mentality ...
So you would choose to be corrupt just because of your field of work is different from others

I m not a customs officer, I m a clearing agent.... I feel their frustration, and I think its their frustration that makes them to be exploiting us (clearing agents)

Nigeria Customs Service, is the 2nd revenue generating service in Nigeria and also a para-miltary Agency is the worst revenue generating agency and paramilitary agency in terms of salaries, allowances and also promotion packages, you may not believe me but all the uniform workers of the federal govt customs pays the worst salary, Customs is not even suppose to be categorised with other paramilitary agencies in salaries and allowances but with FIRS, so that officers won't be corrupt... Most officers won't collect bribe if govt were. Paying them well as a revenue earner.... Example if you are offered job with customs as level 8 officer ASCII you will be placed on annual pay of Consol 1,090,890. To include taxes pensions housing and all deductions @ the end of the day you will be left with 81,000 monthly... With 3000 added to it as step For example officers that join the service since 2011 are still earning less than 100k.. And they are not yet promoted to date wearing 1 star while their colleagues in that are are recruited in police, immigration, military civil defence are are now wearing 2 stars and are earning fat salaries. How do you expext them not to be corrupt with all this frustration.




Lalasti.. Front page pls your suggestions and criticism are wellcome

First class, either way, isn't easy. With even better hardwork, they can do it. Being a school of standard, isn't about making grades impossible for students to attain.

That's why over here, even though we take small amount of courses, an outsider may think there's no stress involved. But that isn't the case, you work for every single grade, multi-tasked, and even to attain an A+ is like 85 above.

I know making 1st class isn't an easy thing, but the level @ which southern universities most especially private universities offer it is outrageous.... And I m sure most 2.1 graduates in univ like ABU zaria, Unijos unimaid etc will have a 1st class in all those private universities in the south... Its an embarassment for a law graduate with 2.1 to have a 3rd class in law school, and its what is happening now with all this rampant universities giving good grades any how.. While their graduates hardly pass ICAN, I m not disputing 1st class in any way but I assure u that is what most nothern universities give as 2.1... I wish u good luck in Ūя̲̅ 1st class

Eureka123:
Joining them soon!! News like this pushes one's motivation level up.

all this southern universities that gives 1st class any how... Those 1st class graduates will hardly make a 2.1 in most Nothern universities... Make them go ABU or Uni Jos and have a 2.1 make I see

pasqal09:
Yet you can't understand a mere dream if you're so spiritually powerful?

spiritually every 1 has his own spiritual gift, interpretation of dreams is an entirely different gift also.. Even prophets of God consult those that have that gift... See this link www.dreamedictionary.com/?s=gives%20birth%20multiple%20babies

Huh

doublewisdom:
Your spirit wife has birthed triplets for you.

I m spiritually too powerful to have a spirit wife..... It doesn't happen to real bible practising christinas.... Take note.. Not hypocrites o.. I m a christian I know myself

I had a dream that I saw 3 new born babies, its not very clear but I think the 3 new born babies are mine that came 1 after the other, it looks as if they are from my wife, bt still is still not clear, coz my sister is also in the picture...... I m not really sure bt all I m sure is that I saw 3 new babies that came 1 after the other and I m so much related to them 80% probably my children... Bt 20% my sisters..... Pls I need an idea what it means.. Thanks

Ask ursef who made him house of reps member and ask ursef again, who picked him as a running mate to Audu. TINUBU EVERYWHERE

the biggest looser in nigeria democracy is tinibu... He thought nigeria is lagos state, where he's a local champ, yes he succeeded in putting a vp bt that vp is not more than a comisioner PMB is not a fool that he'll give him little chance coz he's tinibu's eyes there..... His only function is to represent PMB in bomb last sceens, IDP camps, and alikes he has no power to take any decision no matter how small...... I really love the way tinibu is dealt with by Sen president Saraki and Speaker Dogara..... He hnas been silenced by them... He's not even seen the worst yet.. Until Buhari's Ministers are named....... Let me assure u tinibu is only influential within lagos.. In Abuja he's zero he can't influence any 1, as far as power is concerned in PMB's govt the most powerful are Buhari, Saraki, Dogara, Ekweremadu and Lasun..... Take it or leave it osinbaja is not more than a lagos comisioner

No knowledge is useless, we have a nigerian catholic bishop that teaches islamic studies in the UK university......... Infact u have an upper hand above all Ūя̲̅ course mates....... As it is now I have a B.sc and M.sc Economics... I want to apply Direct entry in the university to read Islamic laws

Huh

Rotimi47:
Kogi & kwara have lots of Yoruba people that are indigenous people of those states; as for Lagos, Yoruba don't discriminate so far you're born/grew up there. They even recognize you if you have lived there for along time and contributed to the development of the area you're resident.

In Lagos we have igbos, Hausas etc occupying political positions & that's why Lagos is developing at a faster rate, this model is what is obtainable in America, Europe and every civilized world as it quickens growth/development..

I don't think this is the reason for development in lagos..... The only reason is all those seaports, Lagos is the 1st place to have busy seaports not only in nigeria, but almost all the countries around nigeria that are land locked, with no seaports, or do u think the development is because of anything apart from this? Hope u don't think lagos is more developed than abuja! Coz its not just...... And for people from all parts of Nigeria holding politcal offices in lagos is because they are more powerfull than the real lagotians money is power u know...

Huh
