With the resources at their disposal, one just wonders why the Dss cant go after the idiots generating and spreading these fake stories; just imagine the fellow on twitter even with a suit. All the Dss kniws to do is arrest and persecute innocent Nigerians.
So what is the name of the officer

And he 'has been in service since 2011'. Shows you the quality of people running things in the country.. no wonder nothing get head or tail for the kwontiri. Ordinary salute turn to rocket science and drone technology rolled into one
this is beyond the scope of the article. the fact is there are people that are promoting false narratives happening in the country and using social media as their tools. mainwhile gullible Nigerians are believing this narative.

Your fact check is not complete without the video where he was made to salute and he didn't know how to salute. Please look for the video and add it to your write up.
I'm not going to do any such thing. You have hands, you have an internet connection, do it yourself!

Fact-Check or no Fact-Check the Custom officer na still quota system.
They should simply tell us the name of the officer. If his name is Buhari or Daji, then we will need to be worried.

VERDICT

There is no sufficient evidence to back up the claim that customs recruited “a repentant Boko Haram member” as an officer. The claim that the bandit posing with Masari in a picture is the same person as the customs officer in a viral video is false.

This Verdict is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever read. At no point in their rambling, incoherent response were they even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Very unintelligent verdict from brainless ediots.

You are mischievous and ignorant apologist.

What exactly is beyond the scope of investigative journalism? Name and history of the Custom Officer were not mentioned, date of the promotion, venue of the event, not mentioned. Nothing was said in the article than denial for nothing

" “It is therefore very unfortunate that those who are bent on presenting the Country in a bad light could take a simple human error during decoration to ridicule his person and attempting to extend same to the Service and the nation. This is the handwork of unpatriotic elements that should be ignored.
A good look at the pictures will clearly show that the Customs Officer is NOT the pictured bandit."

Simple human error for a Deputy Superintendent of Custom that have been in service for well over 11 years....issorite.

And he is a 3-STAR Officer! shocked
There are Millions of Southerners who did the Custom Recruitment Exam but were not admitted, only for a Fulani bandit to be put in Custom Uniform. Same thing happens in the Police, the Military and the DSS, all their recruitment is by "Fulani Arrangee", as we are still shouting One Nijeria? angry

That sort of person will be posted to the SW and he will start killing Yoruba Youths at will, all in the name of Customs Forward Operating Unit (FOU).
But he wont be posted to man the Nigerian border with Niger Republic that stretches over 1000Km, from Kebbi, to Katsina, to Yobe State, where everything, including Weapons, is being smuggled into Nigeria without any form of worry.


See, as long as the Fulani think and sees Southern Nigeria as their conquered territory, this contraption called Nigeria will eventually collapse.

BTW: What if the death Report of Buhari Daji was "arranged and all fake", just to protect his identity in the Customs Service? undecided undecided
We are not fooled.
Re: Fact Check: Did Customs Recruit Repentant Boko Haram Member As Officer? by blackboy(m): 6:23pm On Oct 21, 2021
With the way this fact check waz carried out or shared it further gives credence to the rumour that the officer in question needs to be further investigated and does not remove doubt about him being a former bandit or boko haram member.

Let the customs further come out with clarification

ipob terrorists is full of propaganda and lies.
These useless terrorists are shameless, foolish and inconsequential.
The painful part is that, some fools that called themselves educated are among the fools in nairaland that always support everything coming from the terrorist organization.
Only a useless brainwashed pig will believe one word coming from ipob.

This people take some gullible Nigerians as a fool by denying what is glaring because they know truly some Nigerian's are fools.If not because one of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu disciple called Simon Ekpa wise people like us will not have known this but trust me some will believe Customes lies because of hate for IPOB members
