The Tin Can Island Port Command of the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) has recorded a significant increase in revenue generation, raking in ₦120.4 billion in February 2026, up from ₦103.6 billion recorded in the corresponding period of 2025.
In a statement made available to our correspondent, the Command described the ₦16.8 billion year-on-year increase as a clear indication of its growing strength as a major revenue-generating hub.
An authoritative source attributed the achievement to the Customs Area Controller, Comptroller Frank Onyeka, whose leadership has driven improved performance through strategic revenue measures, trade facilitation, and intensified anti-smuggling operations.
The statement noted that key initiatives under his leadership include the deployment of advanced technology for cargo monitoring, faster clearance processes, and strengthened collaboration with freight forwarders and importers.
“His zero-tolerance stance on violations and hands-on motivation of officers have transformed operations, earning commendation as a model of excellence,” the statement read.
It added that the achievement reflects not just increased trade volumes but also disciplined enforcement and sound fiscal management.
“With this momentum, the Tin Can Island Port Command is poised to remain a dominant force in NCS revenue generation,” the statement added.
“As the NCS continues to pursue its revenue, trade facilitation, and security mandates, the success recorded under Comptroller Onyeka’s leadership serves as a benchmark for effective administration nationwide.”
