Collects N16b Daily Revenue

Comptroller Babajide Jaiyeoba, CAC, Apapa

 

The Comptroller General of the Nigeria Customs Service, NCS, CGC, Bashir Adewale Adeniyi, MFR, certainly knew what to expect when he assigned and deployed Comptroller Babajide Jaiyeoba as the Customs Area Controller (CAC) of the Apapa Area Command.

Talk about hitting the ground running and the Apapa CAC is exemplary.

Since his assumption of duty at the Command, the Apapa Command of Nigeria Customs Service on February 23, 2024, recorded another revenue collection milestone by generating N16,021,660,412.00 (Sixteen billion, twenty-one million, six hundred and sixty thousand, four hundred and twelve naira).

“This unprecedented figure has become the highest daily revenue collection in the history of the command surpassing the N11.3bn collected on November 22, 2023, and N10bn on August 3, 2023” Public Relations Officer of the Command, CSC Abubakar Usman disclosed in a statement he signed for and on behalf of the Command/CAC.

According to Usman,  Comptroller Babajide Jaiyeoba described the feat as one of the expected fallouts of the many strategies he has put in place as he urged officers and men of the command to keep up the tempo of zero tolerance for infractions and non compromise for any violation of the Nigeria Customs Service Act (NCSA) 2023.

“The laudable revenue collection in the face of declined volume of trade was achieved as a result of weekly strategy meetings between the CAC and sectional heads to review and evaluate success and challenges with a view to continually improving on the command’s achievements” the CAC said.

The Command spokesman told Maritime Nigeria that there has been increased stakeholder engagements between the command, sister government agencies, importers, exporters, terminal operators, and all others involved in the cargo clearance and supply chain.

The Command’s PRO further noted that “Under Comptroller Jaiyeoba, there has been a remarkable improvement in the number of containers being scanned to save time and operate in line with the expectations of modern customs administration”.

“While commending the officers of the command for their dedication to duty exemplified through punctuality and integrity, the Area Controller urged importers, licensed customs agents and freight forwarders to embrace scanning the more as the NCS under CGC Bashir Adewale Adeniyi, MFR is committed to maximum deployment of ICT for trade facilitation”

Speaking on the feat achieved at Apapa, Comptroller Jaiyeoba said “Sincere declaration is a mark of integrity that saves time and money, resulting in a win-win situation for everyone. not making sincere declaration is poor business decision capable of causing delays, leading to issuance of demand notices and denying such importers the benefits of enjoying fast track and possible migration to Authorised Economic Operator (AEO) status”.

Expectedly, stakeholders are optimistic that more “miracles” are very likely to emerge from Apapa with CAC Babajide Jaiyeoba in charge.
