The Comptroller-General of Customs, Adewale Adeniyi, has vowed to devise a lasting solution to issues facing clearance processes in ports nationwide.

Adeniyi was quoted by the National Public Relations Officer of NCS, Abdullahi Maiwada as making this comment at the weekend during an interactive session with maritime and excise stakeholders.

According to him, the engagement was part of activities for the just concluded CGCโ€™s Conference, 2023.

CGC clarified that concerns such as multiple alerts, frequent downtime of CPC, numerous checkpoints, and difficulty accessing ports, among others, have been established in previous meetings as the next phase is to set time-bound solutions.

In his words, โ€œIssues have been openly discussed. The main ones facing cargo clearance will be addressed by collaborating with key stakeholders on building a framework for the way forward to these outlined hurdles.โ€

โ€œThere will be a commitment to the creation and implementation of new policies that are in line with decisions that are taken today, and these approaches will be timebound to ensure we achieve the wanted objective soon,โ€ he said.

Consequently, a panel was set up encompassing representatives of stakeholders and the Nigeria Customs Service to address the concerns hindering effective port operations and achieve cumulative recommendations, which will be carried out by 1st quarter of 2024.

Stakeholders lauded the CGC for bringing back the Servicesโ€™ Annual Conference while expressing readiness to always work with Customs.

The President of the National Association of Government Approved Freight Forwarders (NAGAFF), Tochukwu Ezeisi, said, for the first time in years, freight forwarders are happy because โ€œour issues are being discussed and decisions are taken immediately.โ€

โ€œCGC Adewale has shown seriousness in achieving his three-point agenda by bringing back this Conference, which is an avenue to listen to stakeholders, and we are ready to always work with the Service, he said.

Also, Alhaji Kazeem Isa Adua, the Deputy President of the National Council of Managing Directors of Licensed Customs Agents (NCMDLCA), said, โ€œThe CGC has done well in organizing this Conference and with the positive body language seen today. We should expect smooth and optimized clearance process soonโ€.
