In his maiden meeting with the officers and men at the Customs Headquarters in Abuja, the Comptroller-General of Customs, Col. Hammed Ibrahim (Rtd), reaffirmed the Service commitment to arrest and prosecute anyone caught in the act of smuggling. He stated that all revenue leakages will be appropriately blocked.
The CGC said every act of economic sabotage including false declarations, deliberate misapplication of the tariff, undervaluation  and concealment shall be dealt with decisively.
Ali called on all stakeholders to support the Service in order to achieve its mandate towards the Federal Government’s resolve to secure the nation, boost the economy and create job opportunities for the 
youths.
