The spokesperson noted that these initiatives have significantly contributed to the improved revenue performance, “This exceptional performance underscores Comptroller Alkali’s unwavering commitment to national economic growth through effective revenue generation, enforcement of compliance with international trade regulations and facilitating legitimate trade.
“Furthermore, the Customs Area Controller strategically deployed officers to their current beats based on operational needs, ensuring optimal resource allocation and efficiency across the Command. This proactive measure has enhanced the Command’s capacity to meet and exceed its monthly revenue targets.”
Speaking on the feat, Comptroller Alkali expressed gratitude to all the port’s stakeholders, importers, licenced agents, and officers and men of the Command for their patriotism, synergy, and commitment towards the historic achievement.
He encouraged all stakeholders to sustain the momentum and strive for even greater accomplishments in the coming months.
