Welcoming the ACG, the Customs Area Controller (CAC), Comptroller Joy Edelduok, presented a report on the Command’s achievements in revenue generation and trade facilitation since she assumed leadership.
“Despite the low trade volume at the Command, we were able to generate ₦35.2 billion in the first quarter of 2025. This represents an over 51% increase compared to the same period in 2024.
“This shows that we are working hard to meet the revenue target set for 2025, by the grace of God,” she stated.
