Nigeria's Private Jets
Nigeria has a private jet problem: they cannot keep records to collect duties! Now the Nigerian Customs Service wants the owners to come and regularize.
“Owners of private aircraft for which no presentations were made for verification, and whose status remains uncertain are requested to immediately furnish Customs Service with documents for verification and clearance.
“To this effect, all 57 commercial charter jets or aircraft operators who presented their documents for verification are requested to come to the Nigeria Customs Service Headquarters, Abuja, to collect their clearance certificates.
