There were indications over the weekend, that the Nigeria Customs Service, NCS, will experience mass sack and demotion of officers and men of the service as its comptroller general, Col. Hameed Ali (retd) has vowed to demote all officers promoted unevenly in the service. Ali has also promised to carry out an in house cleansing exercise that may lead to the sack of officers and men of the service found to be corrupt. Speaking at the Customs Training School in Ikeja, Lagos, the Customs boss said he had been informed about irregular promotion, posting and recruitment in the service over the years. Ali said, “In every conversation and meeting with my men, I have told them that I realized that there are so many anomalies as regard to their posting, promotion and recruitment. “We will set up a committee to review the whole thing. Where people have not been promoted out of no fault of theirs we will address it and where people have been promoted based on godfatherism we will review it.” The CG also warned officers who had refused to go on training because they were sitting on lucrative desks stressing that such an era in the service has gone. He noted, “Where people have refused to go to courses because they think they are sitting on a desk where they make some ‘egunje’ we know what to do. There are so many internal things that I don’t need to come out and start reeling them because we have taken note of all this and I and my senior management have resolved to look at this and we will ensure that there is equity and justice in the service.” Meanwhile, the CGC had vowed to embark on house cleansing in order to rid the service of corrupt officers and men. According to him, no organization in Nigeria is corruption free but the few bad eggs in the service had tainted the rest as corrupt.
