The Association of Nigerian Licensed Customs Agents (ANLCA) has congratulated Comptrollers Babatunde Olomu and Dera Nnadi, heads of the Apapa and Tin Can Island Customs Commands, respectively, on their recent recognition at the Comptroller General of Customs ( CGC) Award Night.
During the event held on November 29th, Comptroller Olomu emerged “Best Controller of the Year” and received two additional awards for outstanding revenue collection and excellence.
Comptroller Nnadi on his part was honored for distinctive performance and excellence in workplace transformation.
Comptrollers Olomu and Nnadi are responsible for overseeing the two largest revenue-generating commands within the NCS.
In a statement issued by ANLCA Secretary General, Olumide Fakanlu, the association described the award as well- deserved just as it commended both officers for their exceptional leadership and the remarkable achievements of their respective commands.
“Comptroller Olomu’s leadership has set a new benchmark for revenue generation at Apapa command. This is a demonstration of exceptional efficiency.
“Under Olomu’s leadership, the Apapa Command achieved a historic milestone by surpassing the N2 trillion revenue mark by November 20th, 2024. This achievement is particularly impressive considering the reduced trade volumes during this period, ” the statement said.
The association also recognized the significant transformation of the Tin Can Island administrative building and the command’s attainment of the N1 trillion revenue mark under Comptroller Nnadi’s guidance.
“Comptroller Nnadi’s transformative leadership has breathed new life into Tin Can Island Port, setting new standards for efficiency and revenue generation. His commitment to combating illicit trade has also resulted in significant seizures of illicit drugs and arms.”
ANLCA expressed gratitude to the Comptroller-General of Customs, Adewale Adewale, for recognizing the hard work and outstanding contributions of the officers.
