Be warned about using the wrong people to clear your goods. There are facts you need to know about importation. Read this:

Between Nigeria’s independence in 1960 and the late 1970s, goods being
imported into Nigeria or exported from the country were subjected to legal
compliance inspections at the nation’s Seaports or airports through which the
goods were imported or exported. The 1970s oil boom accelerated the pace of
development of the Nigerian economy, resulting in a sustained increase in
imports, but without a corresponding rise in exports (except crude oil). The fact of
an import-driven economy made it essential to monitor the quantity and quality of
goods being imported into the country. The Nigeria Customs Services (NCS) and
other Government agencies involved in the importation/exportation process
lacked the resources and technical knowledge to accurately perform this
function.

In order to block this loophole and increase revenue generated from importation
transactions Government decided to appoint external inspection agencies (such
as Bureau Veritas, SGS and Cotecna) who were perceived as capable of
handling this function.

The inspection agents were appointed agents of the Central Bank of Nigeria
(CBN) and contracted to inspect shipments to Nigeria from various parts of the
World. The agents’ findings on importation transactions, including quantity/quality
assessments, pro-forma invoice costing/valuation and import duty/port charges
assessments were regularly reported to the CBN and the Nigerian Ministry of
Finance Incorporated (MoF). Official documents issued by these agents such as
“Clean Report of Findings (CRF)” and Import Duty Reports (IDR), together with
certain other shipment documents, such as Bills of Lading, soon acquired
household usage, as they were absolutely essential to the importation of any
goods into the Federal Republic of Nigeria. In order to preclude a monopoly
situation in which Government could be held to ransom by a single agent, a
number of inspection agents were appointed to monitor imports from different
continents or areas of the World, e.g. North America, South America, Europe,
Asia, etc.
