NIGERIA CUSTOMS SERVICE, NPA COLLABORATE TO BOOST PORT EFFICIENCY.

The Comptroller-General of Customs Adewale Adeniyi, has emphasised the importance of collaboration between the Nigeria Customs Service  and the Nigerian Ports Authority  in enhancing the efficiency and competitiveness of Nigerian ports.
During a courtesy visit to the NPA ,  the CGC noted that the success of the NCS is closely tied to the effectiveness of the ports.
“If we get it right in our ports, we will get it right in the Service,” he said.
He further stated: “We have a number of initiatives that we are pursuing, and we need the critical buy-in of a stakeholder like the NPA for those initiatives to succeed.”
The CGC commended the existing collaboration between the NCS and the NPA, highlighting the success achieved at the Export Processing Terminal. He expressed optimism about implementing similar initiatives in the eastern ports to boost export activities.
“The Nigeria Customs Service is ready to work with our ports authority on initiatives that will ensure the competitiveness of our ports,” he added.
