“This is expected to boost the morale of officers and eliminate confusion in the seniority of officers, “Ali said.

According to him, the rank structure of the Nigeria Customs Service has been aligned with the Nigeria Police Force forthwith.

He said that the promotion was a great height in the lives of the newly promoted senior officers, adding that the promotion came with greater responsibility.

“From this moment things have changed therefore; you are now required to take up greater responsibilities.

“All the promoted officers have worked hard to achieve this; in the past, officers were promoted when they are not supposed to.

” Merit is the key to promotion; diligence and hard work is the key to success.

“We have to get `God fatherism’ out of Customs before we leave, ” Ali added.

According to him, by June this year, officers will commence full training at the Customs Command, Gwagwalada, FCT.

He said that the essence of the training was to enhance their skills and make them to be specialists in carrying out their duties.

During the ceremony, nine officers were decorated.

Six of them were Comptrollers; two Deputy Comptrollers and one Assistant Comptroller.
