CGC 100 Days In Office: Reorganizing and Realigning the Service
“Talks about hitting the ground running are untrue”
By Kelvin Kagbare
“Our mission from day one has been rooted in a clear and inspiring vision, one that revolves around the principles of consolidation, collaboration, and innovative solutions. These principles have guided our actions and decisions, propelling us toward a future marked by excellence, efficiency, and effectiveness”– Bashir Adewale Adeniyi, Ag Comptroller General of Customs
The work done
The areas covered
The actions and undertakings
The collaborations sought/entered into
The handshakes and exchanges
The miniscule, if any briefing by officers
The journeys undertaken, the distance covered
The decisions made, depositions and cancellations
The dismantling and erection of new signposts of discipline and orderliness
The new code in arms handling
The reversal of the old order
The postings, deployments and reassignment
The visitations, consultations and assurances given/received
The confidence, trust, thrust, camaraderie, homeliness/familiarity/mastery
The bridges built, the fence mending, the ownership, the reassurances
The refreshing, soothing hope restored
The professionalism and impetus brought in points to a revival
The mission to consolidate positive legacies
The new policy thrust of Consolidation, Collaboration and Innovative Solutions
The introduction of cutting-edge solutions
The optimization and prioritization of officers’ welfare
The integration of data analytics into customs processes
The dexterity, resolve, commitment and purposefulness
The bond and oneness and unity of purpose in service
The milestones achieved
All testify to preparedness meeting with opportunity
Talks about hitting the ground running are untrue
The CGC started running before hitting the ground
Kudos to officers and men of the Service!
The first 100 days have been amazingly dazzling and exhilaratingly thrilling
Indeed “Great men are not born great, they grow great” Mario Puzo, in The Godfather
