There are indications that the protracted crisis currently rocking the Association of Nigerian Licensed Customs Agents (ANLCA) may soon be over. This is because the embattled president of the association; Mr Tony Nwabunike, has reportedly started taking steps towards restoring peace in the association.
In a statement signed by the National Publicity Secretary of the association, Mr. Joe Sanni on Monday in Lagos which was sighted by Shipping Position Daily, he said that the president now realizes that “those egging him on, on the side of sustaining the injustices perpetrated in ANLCA, were only doing so, for pecuniary and selfish reasons”.
Sanni disclosed that the ANLCA president has decided to personally meet with relevant leaders, elders and groups, to reason along with them, in order to “rescue him from the unwarranted situation he has unfortunately found himself”
“While this is highly commendable, even though coming almost 14 months late, it is usually said that it is better to be late, than never. As much as this move by the National President is going to unsettle some few insignificant BOT and NECOM members”, he said in the statement
He also urged all members of the association to encourage the president in his move to bring lasting peace to the association.
“He must be encouraged to move on, undeterred, knowing full well that his over-battered name and with his political future hanging in the balance, shall ultimately be rescued and refurnished.
He should also know that ANLCA and its loyal majority members/chapters, especially in the western zone, will be winners on the long run”
“As Tony Iju Nwabunike embarks on this genuine move towards reconciliation, if he is sincere about it, all hands must be on deck to assist him right all the wrongs, so that ANLCA can once more regain her almost completely lost glory” he concluded.
