The Nigeria Customs Service, Kwara State Command, has recorded a significant revenue generation of N10,027,580,694.63 for the Federal Government from January to May 2024. During this period, the command also made 21 seizures of prohibited items with a total duty paid value of N35.4 million.
The Customs Area Controller, Faith Ojeifo, shared these achievements in a press briefing in Ilorin, the state capital. Additionally, the command donated relief materials to the Ministry of Social Development for distribution to vulnerable members and distributed empowerment items to the Customs Officers’ Wives Association.
Seized items included foreign rice, used tyres, and jerry cans of PMS. Ojeifo highlighted the increase in revenue compared to the same period in 2023, showcasing a 40.41% increment.
The donation of relief materials aligns with the Comptroller-General’s commitment to supporting the needy. The empowerment of Customs Officers’ Wives Association members aims to provide them with skills and tools for self-reliance and productivity, while their spouses are away on duty.
The Service plans to empower 67 wives and widows of Customs officers with sewing machines, baking ovens, and make-up kits, following intensive training in various skills.
