From the North to the East, West and South, all black African leaders are no different.

Instead of them to take time to read what’s in an agreement they are about to sign, they rush to sign them and snap pictures to show they’re working.

You are confirming my point about your ignorance on this case. Just because people do it wrongly does not make it the correct thing to do. Plus this isn't a cargo shipment. JSYK.
There is no fixed cost for customs duty only fixed rates e.g 10% etc. You claim to know that what was sent was not from customs. How is that? Do you know the intricacies of computing and finalizing duty assessments till the exit note stage? I guess not. You are talking to someone with years of experience in this field, I own a customs duty software as well.. lol.

Duties are computed based on the cost of the item, insurance and freight and other landing cost. Mind you as an importing country, this is not done using your local currency as base. They use the foreign currency you purchase in, and then convert it to naira. So the higher your exchange rate and cost the higher the duty. See how govt policies can affect all strata of your life?

You should just learn from me, what I am telling you is real and correct. I am not arguing for anything. I know this process like the back of my palm.

Oga you’re only blowing grammar that we all know. Duties are charged by certain % of the value of goods declared by the importer. The op clearly showed the cost of those items in the screenshot. They were bought online. The seller or the store would provide proof of purchase for those items and that’s what is supposed to be used to calculate the duty fees.

1.2M naira divided by current rate of 1600 is $750. The item costs from the screenshots attached is $1433.66 when converted to USD.

Why would the customs charge you $750 for items worth $1433.66? They claimed they used the value of the items now. Those two phones are old phones and not brand new. Check on Apple website and see if you’ll find that particular iPhone 12 still selling there.

The second phone is S23FE it is clearly written in the description as “mint” that means it’s not a new phone.

How did DHL and customs come about the valuation they gave both phones to warrant a duty fee of $750?

Explain the intricacies that warrant the duty cost $750 based on the value they were purchased for and not some made up value by the DHL and customs as they claim.

Lol you speak with a lot of ignorance.

All facilities in the Aiport belongs to the government, it is managed by them even when you take a lease on them.
Customs duty are done per piece and not in bulk. Thats why it is called Single Goods Declaration. Google SGD and don't lead peope astray

Are you also aware that any item that comes into the country is an import and duty must be paid? And for you to export out you must first clear the shipment?


Do you work or have you worked with customs or DHL?

If not don’t tell me what I know very much about. They manufactured that customs duty right their in their NACHO office.

Check customs website and see what they charge for items. What % is charged on phones and come back to see that what DHL presented that guy is not from customs.

How come cargo shippers don’t pay ridiculous amount of duties on phones and other gadgets? We have many shippers from USA, UK to Nigeria that ship phones and resell them here. The question is if this is how customs truly charge, would those people still be doing business after paying so much for just a few phones?

The sender requested they send it back. She was told it’s not with them anymore, d agent said it was handed over to custom. One of their agent even threatened the lady by saying even if she didn't collect the items, she will still pay the fee.

The item is in DHL custody and not with customs. Customs do not individually charge fees on items coming into the country. Tell the sender to go back to their office in UK and report the agent threatening. Do not bulge. Stand your ground.

It’s either they return it or they replace the items if it gets missing.

Tell them to return it. If they refuse, the sender has a right to file a claim over there in the DHL UK office and they’ll pay her. Don’t mind that uncouth Nigerian DHL staff threatening her.

The item is in DHL facility and not with customs. Don’t bend to their wills. They do the valuation and customs fees right in their office. Customs do not charge them per item but as bulk for duties.

The population of Mauritius is 1.263 million as 2022. 86.56% of 1.263 million = 1,093,253 approximately.

Nigeria’s population is unknown but let’s go by 200 million. 67.76% of 200 million = 135,520,000 approximately.

We can agree that Nigeria has population of people with higher IQ than all African countries.

Politics / Re: Nigeria Owes NNPC $4.9 Billion Fuel Debt by Sheuns(m): 7:31am On Aug 20
Organized scam.

Before May 29 2023, fuel price was 185 naira to a liter. We had subsidy, dollar was about 700 naira.

May 29, 2023: President said “Subsidy is gone” in his inaugural speech. Fuel price rose to over 300 per liter.

A few weeks later “We have floated the naira” or “unified the exchange rate”. Dollar traded for about 1000 naira.

June 12: Mr. President said in his democracy day speech, there was no going back on fuel subsidy removal.

July: Dollar rate kept skyrocketing, prompting NNPC to readjust petrol price to “meet current realities”. Petrol sold for at least 568 Naira a liter.

August 2023: Subsidy was reintroduced through the back door even though the federal government kept denying it.

August 2024: The federal government has spent more than any government since 2005 in subsidy payment in 17 months.

President, Senate president, Vice president asked the people to bear with them that the reforms will take time, yet the president bought a new Cadillac, a new Presidential plane, there’s also rumors of a presidential yacht which could have been bought.
VP got a 21b naira residence, SP and his fellow senators got cars valued at over 160M naira each.

Minimum wage given to the people is 70,000 Naira.

Who is deceiving who?

Politics / Re: Why EXACTLY Was The 2nd Niger Bridge Built? I Need A Cogent Answer! by Sheuns(m): 7:16am On Aug 17
This is funny.

You just want to blame the South Eastern people for a project that was carried out and executed by the FG. You said it costs $2bn to construct yet you do not fault the Government(s) that constructed it, but instead you decided to blame the people in the South East Region.

If you have been opportune to travel around Nigeria, you’ll know that the Niger bridge serves more than just the people of the South East.

Vehicles and goods coming from the Northern part of the country to the Southern part make use of this bridge and vice versa.

This hate and bigotry needs to stop. It makes some of you sound and look stupid because you’re blinded by it.

Thanks bro.
I checked Oyingbo over the weekend and was told the tranny is 350k right now.
Tranny was 250k as at March this year.

Any idea on the name of the sensor inside the tranny causing the slippage?
I have scanned the tranny several times without any code.

It can be any of these. Just try save up for a new gear while managing this one. If you decided to go for a fix, they may charge you over 100k and the gear may still pack up after a few weeks.

Also when going to buy the gear, I’ll advise you go with a trusted mechanic to get a decent one. Remember, the gear you’re also buying is used and you can’t be 100% sure how much life it has left in it.

1. He did not loot into his daughter Pandora account mercilessly the way Peter Obi looted mercilessly from Anambra treasury.

2. Ganduje was never caught red handed looting ₦250 million naira from Anambra coffers to his ware house ilat Orile in Lagos the way Peter Obi relentlessly n mercilessly looted Anambra.

. Make we never talk the scandal fro brewery, building malls in Lagos n Abuja while as a governor, the same more he never built a single before n after his guber term

Buy alas the head is rotten because of Ganduje kickback because he is not Igbo while the head is straight holy and of sainthood with all the proven looting by Peter Obi because is he is Igbo

Most of the Lagos LGA chairman are doing perfectly well as some of them are executing projects that governors from other states dare not venture into.

I’m sure aura for aura, a LG chairman in Lagos has more project than Abia state governor.

Do you live in Lagos? How did you come to the conclusion that most of them are doing perfectly well?
