 Ex-Rivers Deputy Speaker Seeks Court Order to Block LG Funds to Sole Administrator Former Rivers Deputy Speaker Marshall Stanley-Uwom has asked the Federal High Court in Abuja to block the release of local government allocations to Rivers State Sole Administrator, Ibok-Ete Ibas. Stanley-Uwom, a former lawmaker under Governor Nyesom Wike, argues that Ibas cannot appoint unelected caretakers to manage local governments and seeks a declaration ending the state of emergency in Rivers. He also wants the court to compel Ibas to vacate his position and allow the democratically elected governor to resume office. The suit, FHC/ABJ/CS/797/2025, names President Bola Tinubu and other government entities as defendants. Stanley-Uwom has raised constitutional questions concerning the legality of Ibas's actions, including the release of funds to unelected officials and the removal of elected members of the Rivers State Independent Electoral Commission.

 Customs Promotes 1,419 Junior Officers for Enhanced Service Delivery


The management of the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) has approved the promotion of 1,419 junior officers to various ranks as part of efforts to enhance service efficiency for the trading public.


This decision was made during the 10th Management meeting, led by the Comptroller General of Customs, Mr. Adewale Adeniyi, held late last month.


The promotion list includes both General Duty and Support Staff who performed well in the 2024 promotion exercise. Specifically, 346 General Duty and 384 Support Staff officers were promoted from Assistant Inspector of Customs (AIC) to Inspector of Customs (IC), while 4 General Duty and 13 Support Staff officers moved from Customs Assistant I (CAI) to Assistant Inspector of Customs (AIC). Additionally, 372 General Duty and 59 Support Staff officers were promoted from Customs Assistant II (CAII) to Customs Assistant I (CAI), and 188 General Duty and 54 Support Staff officers advanced from Customs Assistant III (CAIII) to Customs Assistant II (CAII).


This initiative reflects the NCS management's commitment to fostering career development, under the leadership of CGC Adeniyi, who prioritizes workforce motivation to drive excellence and elevate the organization’s service delivery.


The Comptroller General congratulated the newly promoted officers and encouraged them to intensify their efforts in fulfilling the NCS’s core mandates of revenue generation, smuggling suppression, and trade facilitation.


The promotion list for senior officers is currently under review and awaiting approval by the Nigeria Customs Service Board.
