Ikorodu Customs Warehouse Not Congested, Says Aremu
The Nigeria Customs Service Zonal Coordinator in charge of Zone ‘A’ ACG Modupe Aremu has disclosed that the Ikorodu Customs Warehouse is not congested adding that the facility can comfortably accommodate about 9000 containers and other general goods.
Aremu disclosed this while on a working visit to Ikorodu Customs Warehouse for an on-the-spot assessment of the general conditions of the warehouse.
Zonal Public Relations Officer, Zone ‘A’ Headquarters, CSC Uche Ejesieme, in a statement said the visit is coming on the heels of some insinuations in the media space which erroneously indicated that the facility is filled to the brim, and therefore can no longer be readily available for deposition of overtime/seized goods.
In the course of the visit, the ACG took time to inspect all the goods domiciled in the facility, had engagement with the critical stakeholders, including the security and regulatory agencies on ways to ensure sanity and security of the facility.
The ACG was received by officer in charge, A.C. William Akpabio, who led other officers and stakeholders on the working tour.
Feeling quite elated at the conduct of the officer/men, the ACG charged them to ensure transparency and professionalism in discharge of their duties, to enable the service accomplish its mission and vision.
