This was contained in a press release issued on behalf of the Comptroller General of Customs, Bashir Adewale Adeniyi MFR by the Public Relations Officer of the Service, Chief Superintendent of Customs CSC Abdullahi Maiwada.
The release reads in full, "The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) wishes to inform the general public, particularly operators of privately-owned aircraft, that the verification exercise for the recovery of import duties on illegally imported private aircraft has been extended by one month, from Monday, 14th October 2024, to Thursday, 14th November 2024.".
"This extension is to further engage operators who have expressed willingness to regularize their import duties, providing them with an additional window to comply with the necessary regulations.
