Nigeria Customs Introduces New Uniform For Officers

The Nigeria Customs has announced the introduction of a new uniform, adding to the former ones they have.

This was disclosed on Tuesday in their Facebook page where they added that the development was to give the officers of the agency variety of options on what to wear depending on the assignment and weather.

“The additional wear which was officially presented to the public by the Ag. Deputy Comptroller General of Customs in charge of Tariff and Trade, Isa Talatu Mairo and the Service Public Relations Officer, DC Joseph Attah, has white atop the usual ash coloured trouser with a tie to match,” the post read on Facebook.

“Officers and men working in offices, airport and especially during hot weather will find it easy and more comfortable to wear on duty.

“For the avoidance of doubt, this is not a change of uniform but an addition to give officers and men variety of official wears.”

In addition, Customs said, “The white top which can either be long or short sleeve is part of the ongoing reforms aimed at giving officers additional outlook that befits a Service operating on high integrity standard.

“While giving his nod for the official use of the new uniform, the comptroller General of Customs, Col, Hameed Ibrahim Ali (Rtd) expressed the hope that the additional wear will help shove up the Service image as well as provide more comfort for operatives at certain time and in appropriate assignment to increase productivity.”
