grin A whopping 100 billion was made within 6 months, that is why they don't want the man to succeed , half of the money would have gone to individuals pocket.
The best way to silence critics is performance , if he likes he should put on Boxers and Tee shirt to work. Nigeria is blessed with opportunities and resources but corruption is the other of the day. Even with the drop in Volume of importation they could achieve this feat is something to be proud of.
i hope the excess money can be put to good use.

The guy seems to be diehard PDP supporter.

Politics aside, whether they are comparing themselves against themselves, the result is commendable and should encouraged.

Just like someone said up there, we pray and hope the revenue will be used judiciously.

Where are they using the money
What use is the money meant for
??
It's not only to extort the people to generate money for politicians

Nigerians are still going to Cotonou and lome to buy cars because of the rip off by our customs ...

I'm not surprised. I was charged 57k custom duty for a wrist watch and birthday candles I received through USPS, excluding the 100 USD the sender paid already.

They should keep on feeding fat off the masses smh.

Lol. . .broke a record or decided to remit such amount. The formal CG of customs will just be laughing seeing the so called record.

All the same, it is a good thing you increase the remittance. At least more money to the legislative and executive Ogasssss.

Col. Hamid Ali is so stupidly stubborn.

The customs would have made double this profit if only he wore the Customs Uniform.

There is no magic to what led to the increase.

I will explain what occurred.
They were initially assessing FOB using the CBN rate of N200/USD but then changed to the inter bank rate that floats between 305/USD to 315/USD, an increase of over 50%.

In practical terms 385B to 486b, is just a 26% increase. What this means is that there is a huge reduction in cargo incoming due to forex restrictions on some 41 items.

So they have done nothing really for the increase except to increase the assessment rate of Naira/USD of FOB and freight.

Truth is if you look at the two periods in USD term, there would have been a reduction rather that increase they are talking about.
