The Tin Can Island Port Command of the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) has generated N346,508,836,486.54 as revenue in 2019. With this figure, the Command exceeded its 2019 revenue target with an excess of N4,202,755,990.15, representing 101.21 per cent.
According to a statement signed recently by the Command’s public relations officer, Uche Ejesieme, the feat was attained through the repositioning of its operational efficiency, coming on the heels of the implementation of series of transformational ideas and Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) developed to facilitate trade without compromising the extant provisions.
Looking into the 2019 activities, Ejesieme noted that the Command in its desire to boost export embarked on the sensitisation of stakeholders and would be exporters on the need to take advantage of the potentials inherent in export. This, he explained, culminated in an increase in the quantity of export recorded in 2019.
He insisted that the command facilitated the export of items with a total tonnage of 269, 819.5 tons with a total Free On Board (FOB) value of N130, 186, 894, 481 in the said period as against the total tonnage of 254, 762.77 with a total FOB value of N145, 322, 990, 296.00 exported in 2018.
Ejesieme further explained that for optimum productivity for growth to enhance Trade Facilitation at the Tin Can Island port, the Command developed a more cordial working relationship with the critical stakeholder by constant engagements. This, he said led to a re-invigorated Dispute Resolution Committee which was constituted to deal expeditiously with disputes arising from Valuation, Classification, PAAR and Rules of Origin.
