The Customs Area Controller of Katsina Area Command, Comptroller Abba-Aji Idris, has received commendations from the National Drugs Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) and the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) for his proactive efforts in addressing cross-border crimes, particularly smuggling and drug trafficking.


In a press statement signed by the Command’s Acting Public Relations Officer, Assistant Superintendent of Customs Bello Isah, on 31 October 2024, both agencies were reported to have praised Comptroller Idris during recent engagements with the Command, recognising his role in strengthening border security and public awareness.


According to the statement, the newly appointed NDLEA Commander for Katsina, Abubakar Aminu, paid a courtesy visit to Comptroller Idris at the Customs House in Katsina on 30 October 2024. He commended the Customs Command’s extensive efforts to raise public awareness of the dangers of smuggling and drug trafficking.


“The purpose of this visit is to assist the Comptroller in any way possible,” Commander Abubakar stated, emphasising the NDLEA’s alignment with the Customs Command’s objectives to protect the state from illegal cross-border activities.


Comptroller Idris, in his response, expressed appreciation for the NDLEA’s show of support, describing the visit as a timely reinforcement of Katsina Command’s mission. He detailed several strategies he has implemented since taking office, underlining the Command’s ongoing dedication to safeguarding Katsina State’s borders.
