The House of Representatives Committee on Finance has directed the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) to provide a detailed account of the nearly ₦34 trillion in import duty waivers granted in 2025.
as lawmakers intensified scrutiny of government revenue and fiscal accountability.
The committee issued the directive on Wednesday during an oversight session with NCS management as part of the National Assembly’s ongoing review of revenue-generating agencies.
Chairman of the committee, James Faleke, said lawmakers were not opposed to the federal government’s policy of granting import duty waivers but insisted that the process must be transparent and beneficial to the country’s economy.
He directed Customs to submit a comprehensive report identifying all beneficiaries of the waivers, the legal authority under which the concessions were granted and the objectives they were meant to achieve.
