The Managing Director of Muna Sylver Nigeria Limited, Hon. Princess Chi Ezeh, has congratulated the Area Controller, Tincan Island Port, TCIP Command of the Nigeria Customs Service, NCS, Comptroller Frank Onyeka on his sterling performance which saw him collect an award at the Apapa Command recently.
Comptroller Frank Onyeka was one of the 5 newly promoted Comptrollers from the Apapa Port Command given special recognition awards for their excellent service in 2024 and he was specially recognised for revenue generation exploits.
Princess Chi who gave this commendation in a press statement disseminated on Thursday, challenged the new TCIP Customs boss to replicate his sterling revenue feat at Tincan Island Port.
Her words: “I am specially congratulating Comptroller Onyeka on his recent appointment as Area Controller of Tincan Customs and also for his admirable performance in revenue generation displayed in his former capacity as Deputy Comptroller in-charge of Apapa Port Gate.
“When you look at Comptroller Onyeka’s history in recent years in Customs, you will observe that he has been creating records especially in revenue generation. He set new revenue records at Onne port before moving to Apapa where he was part of the winning team which collected N2.3 trillion in 2024.
“The expectation of industry stakeholders and my expectation is that Onyeka’s emergence as Tincan Customs Area Controller would mean more revenue milestones. However, this is no small feat when you consider the fact that he is replacing a high-performer in ACG Dera Nnadi who hit 1 trillion and remodeled the TCIP command administrative building.”
Princess Chi who is also a Vice President of the National Association of Government Approved Freight Forwarders, NAGAFF, Western Zone, expressed optimism that Onyeka’s performance at TCIP command will lead to more significant attainments in revenue generation and trade facilitation.
Meanwhile, she challenged the new TCIP Customs boss to maintain the high-degree of cleanliness and orderliness established at the command under the guidance of ACG Nnadi.
Noting the poor culture of maintenance especially on public assets in Nigeria, Princess advised Comptroller Onyeka to ensure the state-of-the-art facilities at Tincan Island Port are efficiently utilized to maximise the value of the modern equipment.
Recall that 40 years after the initial construction of the TCIP Customs administrative building, Nnadi carried out a transformational renovation and built a Quarter Guard podium and Police Gate House which was commissioned by the Comptroller General of Nigeria Customs Service, NCS, Comptroller Bashir Adeniyi, recently.
