The Tincan Island customs service has reportedly N207.838 billion in revenue between January and October 2016.

According to the Area Comptroller Tincan Island Port Apapa, Bashar Yusef, the sum represents a positive trend in prevailing Economic Recession which has incapacitated business activities in the nation.

The comptroller, which assumed office few months ago, restructured the operational and revenue generating capacity of the command by ensuring that all revenue leakages were substantially reduced.

“A major constraint which we have continued to address is the issue of false declaration, deliberate misapplication of harmonized system code on items among other infractions. However, I am confident that with the measures which we have put in place, it will be practically impossible for anybody to manipulate or circumvent the process without being caught,” he said.

On the measures to further enhance the capacity of the command, the controller promise to ensure that all operating units within the command key into the change model of the Federal Government.

He further stated that, “We will continue the strategy of stakeholder engagement, training and re-training of our personnel as well as collaboration and synergy with the critical agencies in line with the vision and mission of the Comptroller General, Col Hamed Ali. (rtd) and his management. We will continue to remain on top of our mandate through strict adherence with the extant laws for maximum Revenue Generation.”

Nice.....


We Only hope such revenues will not be shared by APC Stalwarts or used for frivolous activities. E.g SGF using a whooping 270million to clear grasses.

They should hold it.They should not remit it because l have not seen what PMB has done with the previous ones they remitted.

Good governance, Buhari Nigeria's messiah

Why does pmb want to borrow?

They declare this much, yet the roads leading to TINCAN are going beyond terrible.....

Vio, roadsafety, customs,firs, nnpc and it's subsidiaries, and all revenue generating agencies are making remittance to the APC government yet, there is no money, is all this monies being remitted into private pockets? Advanced 419.

if other sectors can be this productive

Why won't they generate that amount when they issue PAAR and raise assessment on close to 315/USD?
They are the number one problem of importers in Nigeria.

tjpetrr:
if other sectors can be this productive

They are not in anyway productive, they' only increased the amount because they raised the USD/N rate of assessment from 155-310, and over 100% increase.

Money they made by extortion.

To clear a salvaged 2011 Camry now cost above NGN1.5m. Car that we buy for USD3,500 max on auction. When they kill all businesses, lets see who will be importing for customs to make money.

Also, naira now exchange between 300 - 320 for customs clearing. that's about 80% increase from what it was.

Smuggling is the way forward. Just don't get caught

Mk dem borrow Buhari the money. He go return am back . We wan use am build infrastructure

Every day we recover Billions this Billions that still yet recession persists. Abeg I don wailler

Money made to dollar inflated price in the course of the year.... Yet they still want to borrow after high extortion from the masses. Welcone to Chanjii
