Seventeen (17)
Junior officers of the Nigeria Customs Service have been dismissed from the
Service for offences ranging from drug addiction, certificate forgery, theft
and
absence from duty from January to September 2016.
A statement
issued on Sunday, October 16th, by the public Relations Officer, Wale Adeniyi,
said that the appointment of two other officers have been terminated for
absence from duty while one Officer was retired for drug addiction.
''Investigations
into offences committed by the Officers in the senior category are now being
concluded. Officers found guilty are expected to face similar stiff penalties.
These disciplinary measures were taken after series of investigations and
deliberations by the disciplinary committee and recommendations were made to
the Management. This process is a continuation of the reform agenda the
Comptroller-General of Customs, Col. Hameed Ibrahim Ali (Rtd) promised upon his
assumption of office which emphasized discipline, good conduct and
transparency''.
