Nigerian govt reviewing Buhari’s reason for some border closures – New Customs CG, Adeniyi

The acting comptroller-general of the Nigerian Customs Service (NCS), Wale Adeniyi, said some land borders remain shut, but a review is ongoing to determine the purpose of their closure.

Adeniyi stated that currently, only six land borders have been reopened since President Muhammadu Buhari shut all the land borders in August 2019.

He disclosed this on Tuesday after a meeting with President Bola Tinubu at the Aso Villa, adding that the six reopened are strategic borders.
