• Tin Can Customs Target N47.4bn Monthly Revenue

Tin Can Island Command has announced it is working towards N540 bilion revenue in 2020, putting its monthly revenue target at N47.4 billion.

According to the Command, it exceeded its 2019 official target of N342 billion by N4 billion.

Uche Ejesieme, the Command’s Public Relations Officer, said the Area Command Controller, Musa Abdulahi, has started meeting with stakeholders operating at TCIC to seek their support in meeting the set target.

He said, “We had a target of N342bn in 2019 and were able to make N346bn, with an excess of N4bn.

“Using the same projection, we are envisaging that the command, out of the N2tn target government has given us, will get N540bn for the year 2020.

“This translates to N47.4bn every month. It is actually not going to be very easy but for the strategies that the comptroller has put in place. This is the essence of the conversations, consultations and all the meetings.

“He met with officers in the middle cadre, officer commanding terminals, members and leadership of the various associations, key security agencies and so on.

“In all of these meetings, he highlighted some of the achievements we made last year, thanking them for their support and collaboration and preparing their minds for the challenges ahead.”
