“It is a statement of fact that the collaboration between us and stakeholders has helped in building the capacity of the officers to make us emerge as the command with the highest promotion,” he said.

The Customs Area Controller advised the officers to work hard to justify their elevation.

“Over 67 Comptrollers were promoted; that is unprecedented. It is important that the management decided to compensate them this time around. You are not only lucky; you are privileged, having been found academically competent.

“Those not promoted should work hard. Your rank confers service in you and not power. Whichever office assigned to you should be seen as service and not as power. Our stakeholders deserve to be respected. You must optimize service delivery. Use your new rank to help the command to survive the revenue target to be assigned to the command. The only obligation is to mentor you and what you owe me back is service delivery,” he said.
