Public Relations Officer, NCS, Joseph Attah
The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS), yesterday, said it made and remitted N1.004 trillion into Federal Government’s coffers in the first six months of the year.
The Public Relations Officer (PRO), Deputy Controller Joseph Attah, who made the disclosure in the organisation’s half-year report, said the scorecard was significantly higher than the N713.55 billion realised in the corresponding period of 2020.
He admitted that the tripartite agreement struck with Benin and Niger republics immensely checked cross-border crimes.
As proof, Attah said 2,333 seizures were made within the period under review, resulting in Duty Paid Value (DPV) of N4.42 billion.
