The Nigeria Customs Service on Tuesday, decorated 28 newly-promoted personnel with their new ranks in its Enugu/Anambra/Ebonyi Command.
The newly-decorated personnel comprised 15 officers and 13 men of the Service.
Decorating the newly-promoted personnel in Enugu, the Customs Area Controller, Comptroller Comfort Ukpanah, urged the officers and men to always reflect on the mission and vision of the Comptroller-General (C-G) of Customs, Bashir Adeniyi.
Ukpanah noted that all officers and men must follow the visionary leadership of the C-G of Customs as it concerned his robust plans and transformative ideologies aimed at repositioning the Service.
She said, “The C-G of Customs, on assumption of office, had categorically highlighted his commitment at creating an enabling environment for capacity building for career progression, which will ultimately motivate the workforce.
“It is therefore on record that this signaled a new dawn in the leadership style as promotion has become a regular feature in the Nigeria Customs Service, as against what was obtainable before his emergence.”
The comptroller noted that promotion and elevation came with obligations and responsibilities, and urged the newly-promoted to see their new ranks as an opportunity to demonstrate capacity and competence in their service to the nation.
“I urge you to have at the back of your mind that true success is not measured by personal achievements but by the legacy, support and mentorship left behind,”.
Ukpanah also charged them to mentor their subordinates through the new roles that would be assigned to them in line with the mantra of the C-G of Customs and his management.
Responding, one of the newly-decorated and Assistant Controller of Customs, Pascal Igwe, appreciated God as well as the C-G of Customs, Bashir Adewale Adeniyi, and his management team for the promotion and uplift to a new rank.
Igwe assured the comptroller that they would redouble their dedication and commitment to achieve more
