Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Comptroller-General of Nigeria Customs Service Bashir Adeniyi has announced plans to increase workers\u2019 salaries.<\/p>\n

Adeniyi disclosed this on Tuesday during an Arise Television interview.<\/p>\n

According to him, staff welfare remains a top priority for the service.<\/p>\n

\u201cSeveral massive capacity-building programmes have been organised locally and internationally for our officers in 2023, particularly in the second half,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had over 60,000 Customs officers that went for different capacity programmes at home and abroad. The promotion exercise, which we used to roll over into the fourth or fifth month, we ensured that we started it in Q3 2023.\u201d<\/p>\n

On the salary review, Adeniyi said: \u201cThe last salary review we had was five years ago. I think we are due for another review. We will look at some of the allowances the officers have been collecting to do their jobs.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe welfare of the officers is one of the things I felt I should do when I became the Comptroller-General, particularly attending to the welfare issues of our officers.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd when you talk about that, you talk about what their take-home pay will be, ensuring the allowances are paid at the right time and making provision for issuance in case they come in contact with agonies during their duties,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n
