Hameed Ali

The Comptroller General of the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS), Hammed Alli, has said it's inconsequential if he doesn't wear uniforms as long as he does his job the right way.

In an interview published by the Sun, Hameed said Buhari handed him three clear mandates; to restructure, reform and increase revenue.

"A lot of people have queried that I don’t wear the Customs uniform. The job is not about whether I wear uniform or not, but carrying out the job within the context of the mandate given to me and the laws.

"As far as I’m concerned, it makes no difference whether I wear uniform or not but to deliver. My colleagues here know who the Comptroller General of Customs is.
