"I am honoured to stand before you today to present these relief materials on behalf of the Comptroller General of Customs (CGC), Adewale Adeniyi, to the Kwara State Ministry of Social Development", the Area Controller stated.


"The items we are donating today are aimed at providing relief, comfort, support, and hope to those affected by specific crisis or challenges", he explained. 


The CAC acknowledged that the ministry is not a revenue-generating ministry and only benefits from monthly allocations from the Kwara State Government, "and that is why we are recognising the tireless efforts of the ministry in serving the less privileged, the vulnerable and the disabled in the society". 


"We are proud to partner with you in this endeavour. Our donation symbolises the Comptroller General of Customs' commitment to caring for those in need. May it bring joy, hope, and relief to those who receive them", Ojeifo emphasised.


Similarly, Comptroller Ojeifo also announced the empowerment of 67 registered members of the Customs Officers Wives Association (COWA) with sewing machines, baking oven, and makeup kits after months of extensive training. 


In his words, "We are proud to have produced certified and quality trainees who are graduating from different fields and not only that, also supporting them with start-up equipment and machines as their training demand." 


He called for a more just and equitable society where women and girls can thrive and reach their full potential while also acknowledging critical stakeholders for their support.
