The Nigeria Customs Service, Lagos Industrial Area Command, FESTAC Town, has reaffirmed its commitment to facilitating trade and also ensuring an open-door policy to both officers and stakeholders.
This was contained in a statement over the weekend by the Customs Public Relations Officer in charge of the command, Juliana Tomo.
The statement quoted the new Customs Area Comptroller in charge of the command, Sarah Wadinda, stating this when she assumed office last week as the command’s new CAC after the retirement of her predecessor, Rebecca Chokor.
Wadinda stated that the major focus of the service led by its Comptroller-General, Adewale Adeniyi, is to ensure trade facilitation and revenue collection.
She reiterated that she would work towards achieving enhanced effective cooperation between the LIAC and excise traders on trade facilitation and excise regulation compliance. Wadinda pledged her allegiance to the CGC’s policy thrusts, which are consolidation, collaboration, and innovation.
