The Nigerian Customs Services yesterday said the internal Circular it issued on January 19, 2017 on dismissed 59 officers was a reminder should any of the affected officers may still be hanging in the system.

A statement by the Acting Public Relations Officer (PRO), Joseph Attah said: “As a routine practice of keeping officers and men of the Service informed, the Ag. Comptroller (Discipline) compiled the names of all officers affected by the disciplinary action for circulation to all Customs formations across the country.

“The notification to serving officers and men is in keeping with the Service pre-emptive measures to deter any affected officer who may choose to hang around to engage in illegalities,” the statement explained.

Customs said some media reports had quoted the circular signed by the Ag. Comptroller (Discipline) and reported in a way that seemed the dismissal was fresh.

“For the avoidance of doubt, the Service has not dismissed any officer since the one duly reported last year. The story is false and represents a repetition of same story delivered as new,” it said.
