The Comptroller-General of Customs (CGC), Adewale Adeniyi, has described the Trade Modernisation Project (TMP) as a worthy and dependable partner in the modernisation drive.
Adeniyi gave the commendation at the weekend after receiving a power generating set and a bus on behalf of the service from TMP in Abuja.
Appreciating the TMP for the equipment, the Customs boss said the tools, training and equipment would help to drive the customs’ modernisation programmes.
“On behalf of all officers and men, I appreciate this gesture of the TMP to present the 250KVA generator and the 13-seater 2024 Toyota Hiace Bus to the service.
“We know that computers alone will not work by themselves.
“They will not affect the desired modernisation that we need. It will require human input and the working environment.
“So, we appreciate these efforts you put in place to help us enhance the working environment and also improve the welfare of the officers,” Adeniyi said.
