A letter currently circulating online which cannot be independently verified by NewsWireNGR reveals that five of the six Deputy Comptroller-Generals of Customs, shockingly resigned from service on Thursday evening.

According to them, having attained the pinnacle of their career, it was time to leave.

In the letter signed by four out out of the five comptroller generals, they thanked President Muhammadu Buhari for the opportunity to serve the nation.

On assumption of office, Col. Hameed Ali (retd) pictured had vowed to carry out an in house cleansing exercise that may lead to the sack of officers and men of the service found to be corrupt.

He had said, “We will set up a committee to review the whole thing. Where people have not been promoted out of no fault of theirs we will address it and where people have been promoted based on godfatherism we will review it.”

It is however not clear if the said senior ranking CG’s left because of corrupt practises but sources say the new comptroller general, has a hand in their eventual resignation..
