The new comptroller general of Customs Hameed Ali
has approved the retirement of 34 officers on Friday,
October 30.


The Spokesperson for the Nigerian Customs Wale
Adeniyi said the retirement of the officers is a part of an
ongoing reorganization of the customs service.
Adeniyi said: “The re-organization of the Service is one of
the core mandates of the Comptroller-General of Customs,
Col. Hameed Ali.” He added that the retirement of the officers is with immediate effect.


Those affected in the retirement are five deputy
comptrollers-general of customs – John Atte, Ibrahim
Mera, Musa Tahir, Austin Nwosu and Akinade Adewuyi
– who had earlier given notification to the Comptroller-
General for voluntary disengagement from service.
Others are three assistant comptroller-general of
customs – Madu Mohammed, secretary to the Nigeria
Customs Board; Victor Gbemudu, zonal coordinator
zone ‘A’ and Bello Liman, assistant comptroller-general
(headquarters) and other officers of the rank of
Comptrollers serving in customs headquarters, zonal
offices and various area commands across Nigeria.


“The Comptroller-General of Customs stated that the
retirements were part of measures to kick-start the re-
positioning of the service for improved performance,”
Adeniyi said.


The new comptroller general of customs is among the
many head of agencies and departments appointed by
the President Muhammadu Buhari to help sanitize the
country through his fight against corruption by public
officers in Nigeria.

I guess we'll find out later.

Lies. Five deputy comptroller generals actually retired on their own accord, due to the incompetence, rigidness and lack of goals by the Comptroller general, Hammed Ali. They realised that Col. Hammed is leading the customs service to absurdity and decadence, so saw it best to wash their hands off the inevitable explosion.

When is he employing/getting replacements?

Why are you always in pain?

我讨厌布哈里，我讨厌APC。
أنا أكره بوهاري،أنا أكره APC.
