He stated that the command’s enforcement and anti-smuggling unit has not been relenting to combat smuggling and all forms of criminality. 


"Customs, the lead agency at the Ports through its enforcement unit, has coordinated several 100% physical examinations under my supervision in collaboration with critical stakeholders to ensure that the command is freed of any form of non-compliance to the international trade cycle," the CAC said. 


The Area Controller acknowledged modest gains and developments at the command since the launch of the Time Release Study (TRS), adding that the findings will be formally released by the Comptroller-General of Customs, Adewale Adeniyi.
