At no time did the Service issue any such announcement regarding a CBT slated to take place in July 2025.
ABDULLAHI MAIWADA Assistant Comptroller of Customs National Public Relations Officer for Comptroller-General of Customs, a Computer-Based Test (CBT) scheduled to take place in July, 2025 as part of the ongoing NCS recruitment exercise, currently circulating on social media and other messaging platforms, is fake .
In a statement on Sunday, MAIWADA categorically stated that the said press release is fraudulent, misleading, and did not emanate from the Nigeria Customs Service.
The statement reads:
At no time did the Service issue any such announcement regarding a CBT slated to take place in July 2025.
Upon close scrutiny, it is clear that the fake statement contains several discrepancies, particularly in its formatting.
The e-signature format differs from our official standard and the recruitment timeline mentioned shows a faulty structure that is not connected to any legitimate process.
The Nigeria Customs Service understands the interest of many Nigerians in its ongoing recruitment process and urges the public not to engage with, share, or act upon such unverified content.
Authentic information about NCS activities, including its ongoing recruitment exercises, will be published only on our official website, verified social media platforms, and recognised national newspapers.
The Service is taking steps to trace the origin of this false information and will take appropriate action to hold those responsible accountable.
When the Service is set to begin the next phase of the recruitment process, the public will be duly notified through appropriate channels.
The NCS deeply appreciates the vigilance of concerned Nigerians. We reaffirm our commitment to protecting the public from misinformation, ensuring all our processes uphold the highest standards of transparency and integrity.”
President Bola Tinubu has approved a one-year extension for the Comptroller-General of the Nigeria Customs Service, Bashir Adewale Adeniyi. Originally set to end in August 2025, his tenure will now continue until August 2026.
According to a statement signed by Special Adviser Bayo Onanuga, the extension aims to give Mr. Adeniyi the opportunity to consolidate key reforms and oversee the completion of major initiatives, including the modernisation of Customs operations, the National Single Window Project, and Nigeria’s obligations under the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA).
President Tinubu commended Adeniyi’s leadership and expressed confidence that the extension would bolster trade facilitation, boost revenue generation, and enhance border security.
Appointed Comptroller-General in October 2023, Adeniyi recently achieved international recognition when he was elected Chairperson of the Council of the World Customs Organization, the highest decision-making body in global customs affairs.
