A Twitter user identified as Mazi, has taken to his handle to create awareness about a recent occurrence in a hotel located in Abuja.
According to Mazi, Officers of the Nigeria Customs Service invaded Fraser Suites in Abuja and laid siege, preventing foreign diplomats and guests lodged in the hotel from coming in or going out.
They harassed and ordered the staff of the hotel to wake their guests up from sleep to identify their cars and show Customs duty.
In his words;
“Happening Now:Customs Officers just invaded Fraser Suites in Abuja, preventing foreign diplomats & guests lodged in the hotel from coming in or going out.They are harassing & ordering the staff to wake guests up from sleep to identify their cars and show Customs duty.This is bad!”
Following Mazi’s tweet, Nigerians have reacted to the incident, some condemning the action of the Customs service and others sharing their previous experience with these officers.

A team of three grown custom men cane to my farm to in Omi Adio to ask for the custom paper on my vehicle. It wasn’t a 2019 Land Cruiser or Venza or Range Rover. It was a 1984 Subaru that’s been in Nigeria likely before they were born. But the met their match as I had the docs 🤣 pic.twitter.com/tpMf9Ia8qq

The government does not know this type of action has a chain reaction that can affect the economy negatively. To them, they are fighting corruption. How can you close ur shop n start chasing thiefs instead of you to install CCTV or employ security? Nigeria is off the rail!!!
