Nigeria's Private Jets
Quote from Ndubuisi Ekekwe on October 15, 2021, 1:37 PMNigeria has a private jet problem: they cannot keep records to collect duties! Now the Nigerian Customs Service wants the owners to come and regularize.
“Owners of private aircraft for which no presentations were made for verification, and whose status remains uncertain are requested to immediately furnish Customs Service with documents for verification and clearance.
“To this effect, all 57 commercial charter jets or aircraft operators who presented their documents for verification are requested to come to the Nigeria Customs Service Headquarters, Abuja, to collect their clearance certificates.
“All 29 private jets/aircraft owners and or their representatives who have been issued with demand notices have 14 days from Oct. 11 to collect and make payments to the designated Federal Government accounts. They will be issued with Aircraft Clearance Certificates after payment.’’
