Again, Tinubu extends Customs CG’s tenure by six months
President Bola Tinubu has extended the tenure of Adewale Adeniyi, comptroller-general (CG) of the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS), by six months.
Bayo Onanuga, special adviser on information and strategy to the president, said in a statement on Friday that Adeniyi’s first tenure extension granted in July 2025 ought to have expired on August 1, 2026.
Onanuga said the six-month extension, which will expire in February 2027, is to enable him to consolidate the implementation of the national single window and ensure an orderly succession in the service.
“During the transition period, Adeniyi, working with the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) Board, will ensure the promotion of eligible officers to the rank of Comptroller of Customs and the compulsory retirement of officers who have attained 60 years of age or have served 35 years,” the statement reads.
“Adeniyi joined the Customs Service after graduating from Obafemi Awolowo University in the late 80s.
“He rose through the ranks, becoming deputy comptroller in 2012, comptroller in 2017, assistant comptroller general in 2020, acting deputy comptroller-general in January 2023, before his appointment by President Tinubu in June 2023 as the Comptroller General.”
On October 19, 2023, President Tinubu confirmed Adeniyi as the substantive CG of customs.
He had previously served in acting capacity after taking over from his predecessor, Hameed Ali, in June 2023.
His initial tenure was to end on August 31, 2025, after he completed 35 years of service.
However, the president extended his tenure by one year, which would lapse in August 2026.
The Nigeria Customs Service Act 2023 empowers the president to appoint a career officer not below the rank of assistant comptroller-general as CG, but it does not prescribe a fixed statutory term of office.
The tenure is governed by the extant provisions of the public service rules (PSR), under which civil servants retire at 60 years of age or after 35 years of pensionable service, whichever comes first.
