The Customs Area Controller, Comptroller Mohammed Musa has revealed while delivering a paper on: “General Overview of the Command’’ when he received participants of the Senior Division Course 1/2018
from the Command and Staff College, Gwagwalada in Lagos that the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) generated N76.78 billion revenue in the first quarter of 2018, up from N61.83 billion recorded in the corresponding period of 2017.
According to a statement by the Command’s Public Relations Officer, Mr Uche Ejesieme, in Lagos on Wednesday the delegation was led by the College Commandant, Assistant Comptroller General Charles Edike.
The controller said: “Though the first quarter of each year is usually synonymous with low volume of trade, the migration to Nigeria Integrated Customs Information Systems (NICIS II) platform by the command, also contributed to some hiccups that affected declarations but which we have surmounted.’’
