A Nigerian youth advocacy group has called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to implement a carefully considered and lawful strategy for the upcoming retirement of senior officials within the Nigeria Customs Service. The Arewa Youths Advocate for Good Governance (AYAGG) stressed the importance of a smooth and legally sound transition to prevent disruption.

The group's statement, delivered by Segun Awofadeji in Bauchi, highlights concerns about safeguarding the ongoing modernization efforts within the customs service. AYAGG believes that a haphazard approach to the retirement of experienced personnel could jeopardize these advancements.

By urging a "strategic and lawful approach," AYAGG seeks to ensure that the retirement process is managed transparently and efficiently. This, they argue, is crucial for maintaining the integrity and operational effectiveness of the Nigeria Customs Service as it continues to evolve and adapt to new challenges.
