On road fund surcharge, it stipulates a 0.5 per cent payment on the assessed value of any vehicle imported at any time into Nigeria, adding that the money must go into the designated accounts of the Fund with evidence provided to the Nigeria Customs Service for clearance. It added that the fee shall be deducted from the pump price of petrol and diesel and paid into the fund, pointing out that the minister shall in consultation with the Minister for Petroleum review the amount to be charged as fuel levy periodically.
