President Bola Tinubu has extended the tenure of the Comptroller-General of the Nigeria Customs Service, Bashir Adewale Adeniyi, by additional one year.
Bashir, whose tenure is due for expiration on August 31, 2025, will continue to consolidate the ongoing reforms and complete critical initiatives of Tinubu’s administration, such as: The modernisation of the Nigeria Customs Service; The implementation of the National Single Window Project; and The execution of Nigeria’s obligations under the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) protocol.
This was contained in a statement signed and made available to journalists by the Special Adviser on Information and Strategy to President Tinubu, Bayo Onanuga.
According to him, Tinubu is confident that this extension will further strengthen the Nigeria Customs Service in achieving its strategic mandate of trade facilitation, revenue generation and border security.
