Imported vehicles: Customs’ agents write National Assembly over 15% levy

The Association of Nigerian Licensed Customs Agents will be writing the National Assembly immediately after the  Eid al-Fitr break to express their grievance over the newly introduced 15 per cent National Automotive Council levy introduced by the Nigeria Customs Service on imported vehicles.

The acting National President of ANLCA, Kayode Farinto, in a statement on Monday, noted that the leadership of the association would engage the legislature on the insensitivity of this present administration.

He vowed that the group would ensure that the Ministry of Finance was dragged before the people’s representatives on this issue.

“The 15 per cent National Automotive Council levy  would be pursued vigorously immediately after the Sallah break. I am assuring you that the leadership would engage the National Assembly on the insensitivity of the present government to the plight of the masses to have introduced the levy at this period when the economy is in comatose. We will also ensure that the Federal Ministry of Finance is dragged before the peoples representatives on this matter.”
