Nigeria Custom boss, Hameed Ali remarries two years after losing first wife

The Comptroller General of the Nigeria Customs Service, Colonel Hameed Ali on Saturday got married two years after losing his first wife.

His late wife, Hajiya Hadiza Jummai Ali, died in Abuja on October 29, 2018, leaving four children.

Though, the marriage ceremony which took place in Kano, North West Nigeria was low key, CAPITAL POST observed that the new wife looks much younger than the retired Colonel, who is now the Comptroller General of the Nigeria Customs Service.

Ali’s first wife, Hajiya Hadiza Jummai Ali, died after an undisclosed illness.

An ally of President Muhammadu Buhari, he was appointed as Comptroller General of NCS following the exit of Umaru Dikko.

Ali had previously served as military administrator of Kaduna State from 1996 to 1998.
