Comptroller-General (CGC), Hameed Ali
Respite may have come the way of those whose vehicles were
impounded over underpayment of duty as the Nigeria Customs Service
(NCS) yesterday, said it has opened a platform for vehicle
importers, owners and organised vehicle dealers to pay customs duty
on smuggled, undervalued vehicles in the country.
The Customs Area Controller, Federal Operations Unit (FOU), Zone
A, Compt. Muhammed Aliyu, who stated this while briefing media men
stated that about 150 car marts were sealed in Victoria Island,
Ikoyi and Lekki, in Lagos, adding that the unit also seized over
5000 bags of foreign rice smuggled into the country.
He assured Nigerians that vehicles voluntarily brought forward
by their owners for payment of duty won’t be seized.
According to him, the decision to open the platform was to allow
Nigerians who own smuggled or undervalued vehicles to regularise
their customs duty.
