The house of representatives has implored the Nigeria Customs Service to adhere to the accurately measured 20 kilometres from the Idiroko border at\u00a0Ihunbo community in the Ipokia Local Government Area of Ogun State.<\/p>\n

The House also called on border security agency to \u201callow non-petroleum commodities like biscuits, cement, soft drinks and other consumables to go beyond 20 kilometers from the border so that the people can conduct their legitimate businesses with ease.\u201d<\/p>\n

The House also\u00a0urged the Federal Government to provide palliatives to the border communities in Ogun State and other parts of the country to \u201cameliorate the sufferings caused by the continued closure of the land borders.\u201d<\/p>\n

These resolutions were based on the motion moved by a member of the House, Kolawole Lawal, titled \u2018Need to Relocate Customs Land Border Road Check Point, Idiroko to an Accurate 20 Kilometers Away.\u2019<\/p>\n

Moving the motion, Lawal noted that on November 6, 2019, the Comptroller-General of the NCS, Col. Hameed Ali (retd.), issued a directive banning the discharge of petroleum products in any filling station within 20 kilometres to any land border in Nigeria.<\/p>\n

Lawan also noted that since the directive, all the land borders<\/a> in the country had complied with the directive, including Idiroko land border in Ogun State.<\/p>\n

The lawmaker pointed out that the 20 kilometers from the land border, in the case of Idiroko border, erroneously terminates at the Ajilete community in the Ipokia Local Government Area, stating that the accurate distance of 20 kilometres from Idiroko terminates at Ihunbo community, \u201cthus the checkpoint should be stationed accordingly.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe House is worried that the personnel of the Border Drill Unit, who are charged with the responsibility to enforce the directive in violation of the circular, which is specific about petroleum products, are preventing the residents from transporting other commodities like biscuits, cement, soft drinks and other consumables beyond Ajilete checkpoint.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
