seguno2: Not sure what the requirement for the comptroller of custom is, but I am know he's Vice Chairman of the Nigeria Customs Service Board, which is chaired by the Honorable Minister of Finance. Now we are diverting from the initial issue of the blowout btw customs and senate Lets digress I am unable to find anything on controller general's requirement so can you enlighten us all about it and I won't go with oh Sen Dino said this, is there any provision in the constitution for civil service age exception, who is a civil servant, can a civil servant position be occupied by a political appointee, can a president give an executive order to appoint someone to a civil service position,is the Federal Civil Service Commission of Nigeria (FCSC) in par with Hammed Ali's appointment? |

Pebcak: Don't worry. Our senators are our lawmakers. Dino and his fellow senators most likely know what they are talking about. Expect arrogant Colonel Ali (ret) to run to our courts for protection using the revenue generated by our Customs service despite the recession his brother has brought upon us. Are we not the fools? 1 Like 1 Share |

Firstly, his approval was confirmed by the Senate which invariably means the senators are more or less self centered, ignorant and directionless set of people, infact it's a disgrace to the senators or should I say Dino is just deranged bringing up age as an issue to ask for his resignation. Just as magu seems to be facing confirmation challenges, if it were true that age would have him disqualified from being the CGC, the senators I know wouldn't have confirmed him but melaye is just trying to be relevant. Again, as regards the uniform, it's no issue, if the uniform was a must according to law, the AGF and vice president would have advised him to go in his regalia but because they knew the senators are just trying to be relevant over irrelevant issue, then the reason to take the issue to court. As regards his resignation over age, the senators should get busy with important national issues and when they have something important to discuss with Ali, they would see him in the chamber when invited to discuss the issue. That a retired General wore a FRSC uniform doesn't mean others would follow suit and doesn't make it right, our personalities differ. I for one wouldn't have worn it as long as it breaches not the law. Wearing it would even be a slap on immediate junior officers since he never passed all through their ranks. |

seguno2: I want to talk on facts which I can pull up in regards to these civil service age thing, and as far as revenue generated by custom for court process, Nigeria Custom have a legal team/department that will handle that. why can't Saraki just pay the right fees for his range, if dino is yet to pay right fees for his RR and fleet of exotic cars he should go ahead and do that Lets leave Ali out of his so is it right for a senator who can comfortably afford to pay duty on expensive vehicles not to pay. I have no issues with both of them mine is just there should be no preferential treatment for someone I voted for to be in office. They should stop using their office to intimidate and cut corners. |

[quote author=SalamRushdie post=54835472]Comptroller General of the Customs is an attained rank and comes with a uniform and insignia but pretender CG Ali thinks its a paddy paddy apointment thats comes only with fat pay, plenty perks /goodwill and bullet proof 7 series BMW .. Who is decieving who here please ? i think nobody seem to understand this man, that he is a staunch moslem, it is because of his beard. He can not wear uniform without removing hi beard. |

Re: "Hameed Ali Is Over-Aged & Unfit', Senate Demands Resignation Of Customs Boss by Gaskia: 5:37pm On Mar 22, 2017 |
Minjim: Ali's prayer (through a surrogate litigant) is for the court to determine if the Senate has the power to compel him to wear his uniform anytime he is performing his official duty, and if it is constitutionally demanded so. In contrast to his prayer, Dino is averring that he, Ali does not have the constitutional credential to be appointed a CG of the Nigerian Customs Service, having past the lawful age bracket for the position (following his earlier retirement from active service in the Nigerian Army). He further buttressed his submission so logically by noting that the position of the CG is a service hierarchy, a rank that one must rise to, not a political position meant for external appointees. To reinforce his argument, I believe that a Colonel is a lower rank than deputy CG, (DCG), so why should a retired Colonel (not a General), boss over his superiors. Also, superiority of the military forces to the Police and other paramilitary organisations is only a figment of crude imaginations and conjecture, majorly due to our slow mental evolution from a prolonged military rule. Such superiority has no basis in the constitution. The constitution rather promotes equality, they only differ in functions and duties to the state and citizens. How would the army officials feel if a retired Custom Commissioner is appointed a Chief of Army Staff? Anomaly? What is good for the goose is not bad for the gander! 1 Like |

gypsey: Bros, there is a difference between PUBLIC SERVANT and CIVIL SERVANT. Col Hameed Alli is NOT a CIVIL SERVANT as he is not in the employment of the Federal Civil Service commission. The President is the Commander-In-Chief of the Armed Forces, yet he is not a Civil Servant and he does not have to wear any service uniform. The National Assembly is populated with people of little education. The money they should have used to employ legal aides or paralegals, they are using for runz, otherwise anybody sound person would have told them they are on a looonnng thing.. 1 Like |

ganye1: Thank you, you see in this country many of us are pretenders. When Ali was nominated am sure one of the DCG's and ACG's would have quietly filed a petition but at that time, the senate leadership could not care, what suddenly happened that they are insinuating his appointment is illegal, a statement that indicts them also. Am beginning to believe sahara that something like the car thing happened and saraki decided to dust old petitions. It becomes an issue that is less about Nigerian/s and more about the people involved. |

FFK wants to use one stone to kill several birds at a time. FKK wants retired Col Hameed Ali to kill both bloody civilians Saraki and Dino and thereafter, FFK will inherit their wives. |
