A group of automobile dealers in Lagos State has threatened to drag the Nigerian Customs Service , to court over alleged unlawful sealing of their business premises.
They maintained that all the cars in their business premises were duly cleared and appropriate duties paid to the Federal Government. Part of the letter, which also serves as a pre-action notice, reads: “We must state here with all sense of responsibility and patriotism that the action of Nigeria custom officers in this regard is a demonstration of gross irresponsibility, unprecedented impunity and abuse of power.
“This very act of yours has no protection under the Act, but smacks of impunity, illegality and flagrant abuse of executive power. No law under our law books, including the Customs & Excise Management Act, empowers you to take the steps you have taken in the manner you have taken it.
It's incomplete work that's so rampant in the leadership environment, and their lack of exposure is jeopardizing the whole Nation. Nigerians should rerun APC presidential election to cleared some errors.
