Senate goes hard on Customs, summons DG, to appear in uniform

The Senate has directed the Comptroller General of the Nigerian Customs Service, Col. Hameed Ali (retd),  to appear “in plenary in uniform” on Wednesday “unfailingly.”

Members of the Senate are reputedly pushing for drastic action against the NCS and its DG over the refusal to suspend action on the proposed clamp down on vehicles without duty payment, as ordered by the legislature.

The senators expressed their anger during the plenary on Thursday.

Part of the actions proposed by the senator is to summon Ali to appear before all the lawmakers in the chamber in Customs uniform, which the NSC boss had refused to wear and his removal if he failed to comply with directives from the Senate.
