The PTML Command of the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) has decorated 54 newly promoted officers, and also recorded N31 billion in revenue as at 24th January, 2024.
Comptroller Tenny Mankini Daniyan disclosed this at the the decoration ceremony held at the command on 24th January, 2025.
According to Daniyan, the decoration ceremony was aimed at recognising their hard work and excellence and was held on the heels of a similar mandate issued in Abuja by the Comptroller General of Customs, Bashir Adewale Adeniyi which is sought to encourage the promoted officers and inspire others to strive for greatness.
He emphasised that the promotions were a testament to the command’s commitment to rewarding hard work and dedication while expressing his pride and admiration for the newly promoted officers, urging them to uphold the integrity and excellence that the command is known for.
On performance of the command thus far, the controller took the opportunity to brief on the command’s performance, revealing that they have collected over N31 billion in revenue so for this year. This achievement, he noted, is a promising start to the year and a reflection of the command’s efforts to expand trade and improve efficiency.
“With the command’s sights set on a brighter future, we are confident in the command’s ability to continue delivering excellent results. As the pilot command for B’Odogwu, PTML is poised to lead the way in innovation and excellence.
“The silver lining behind the clouds is now showing and have achieved so much. Today we have over N31 billion in total revenue collected so far which is encouraging considering that this is the beginning of the year, but I can assure you as the days go by, month to month, we are going to keep improving. So the forecast is very clear and encouraging, because trade is going to be expanded in the command.
” PTML is going to be one of those commands that people talk about and with B’Odogwu , it has been perfected gradually. The ceremony should serve as a morale booster for the promoted officers, who were encouraged to continue embodying the values of integrity, professionalism, and excellence that the NCS upholds”
