The National Association of Government Approved Freight Forwarders (NAGAFF) has formally distanced itself from the Joint Association of Customs Agents and Freight Forwarders (JACOFF), issuing an official disclaimer to clarify that it has no ties to the group. <\/p>\n
In a public notice dated February 13, 2026, and signed by Secretary General Fwdr. Godfrey C. Nwosu, the association stated unequivocally that it is neither a member, affiliate, partner, nor participant in JACOFF \u2014 whether formally or informally. <\/p>\n
The statement stressed that no individual, group, or organization is authorized to represent, speak for, negotiate on behalf of, or act in the name of NAGAFF under the platform or umbrella of JACOFF. <\/p>\n
It further warned that any claims, publications, statements, or activities undertaken by JACOFF should not be interpreted as having the endorsement, approval, participation, or consent of NAGAFF. <\/p>\n
\u201cAny attempt \u2014 deliberate or otherwise \u2014 to associate NAGAFF with JACOFF\u2019s activities constitutes misrepresentation and may attract appropriate legal or administrative action,\u201d the notice read. <\/p>\n
According to NAGAFF, the disclaimer was issued to safeguard its institutional integrity, identity, and independence. The association reiterated its commitment to established governance structures, recognized regulatory engagements, and legitimate channels of industry representation. <\/p>\n
Finally, NAGAFF advised stakeholders, government agencies, private sector partners, and the public to rely solely on official communications released through its accredited officers and authorized platforms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
