    Tinubu Has Not Extended Customs CG’s Tenure – Spokesman

    The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) has debunked the purported extension of its Comptroller -General, Adewale Adeniyi’s tenure, stressing President Ahmed Tinubu, who has the authority to do so has not communicated it to the organisation.

    National Public Relations Officer, Abdullahi Maiwada stated this in a rejoinder.

    He said: ” ⁠For the avoidance of doubt, appointments and tenure extensions for the position of Comptroller-General of Customs are made solely at the discretion of the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, in line with the provisions of the Nigeria Customs Service Act 2023 and other relevant regulations governing public service appointments.

    “As of this moment, no such directive has been communicated to the NCS by the appropriate authorities.”

    The rebuttal said the attention of the service has been drawn to a fake release allegedly from the State House regarding an extension of the tenure of the Comptroller-General of Customs, Bashir Adewale Adeniyi.

    NCS said that the information is inaccurate and misleading.

    Maiwada added that the NCS leadership remains focused on fulfilling its statutory mandate of trade facilitation, revenue generation, and border security.

    According to the rejoinder, under the guidance of CGC Adeniyi, the Service continues to implement key reforms aimed at modernising customs operations, strengthening inter-agency collaboration, and enhancing national economic growth.
