While ruling, Hon. Ihonbvere directed the NPA delegation to come on Monday, along with the list of properties slated for auctioning, evaluation reports and name of ed Valuers involved in the transactions; including their reports, government approval from the office of Bureau of Public Procurement (BPP), Federal Executive Council; including Certificate of No Objection where necessary, evidence of remittances into the Consolidated Revenue Fund, bidding procedures, newspaper publications, selection and every other documents that will assist the Ad-hoc Committee.

While reacting to the Comptroller General of Nigerian Customs Service, Mr. Adewale Adeniyi’s non-appearance before the Ad-hoc Committee, Hon. Ihonbvere argued that public funds are being spent from its scarce resources in publishing the summons in newspapers; only to get a reply of an apology from the Service for their inability to appear before the committee due to some operations outside Abuja.

While issuing final warning to the newly appointed NCS Comptroller General, the Majority Leader noted that the arrogance of power and indiscipline in the public service can have negative consequences and, hence should be addressed.

They over-declare imports so they can claim more forex from CBN to later resell in black market while they under-declare for exports so they can hide more forex overseas in collusion with their foreign customers.

They will soon be left to handling only papers with the new e-valuation and price verification system introduced by Emefiele before he went completely rogue.

Some of the corrupt customs officers probably sponsored their collaborators among clearing and forwarding agents to stop that CBN policy citing that CBN has no business with price verification and it's infringing on the roles of Customs. Can you imagine that clearing and forwarding agents are fighting for Customs? Smh

The current istration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has fully implemented the e-valuation and price verification policy for all imports and exports since last day of last month, August 31, and they will soon feel the pinch of the policy so they can face their core duties at the ports.
