Firm optimistic Customs will achieve N6trn revenue target

Guardian Nigeria 2024/10/5

An Information and Communication Technology (ICT) service provider, Webb Fontaine Nigeria Limited, has expressed optimism that the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) will achieve its N6trn revenue target for 2024.

This is just as the firm lauded the NCS for the N4.49trn revenue generated in commemoration of the one year in office of Adewale Adeniyi as the Comptroller-General Customs Service.

The Managing Director, Webb Fontaine Nigeria Limited, Ope Babalola, said the firm’s application system has always been supportive of the NCS, stating that with technology and improved human capacity, achieving the N6trn target was sure.

Babalola said that the company’s trade-enabling ICT platform was being improved to deliver continually in areas of revenue collection, risk management, profiling and upgrading user experience, as part of efforts to support government’s drive for revenue collection using modern technologies.

He stressed that efforts are on to improve port users’ experience with the server of the NCS, stating that the record-breaking N50b daily revenue collection would be improved upon with time.

According to him, the company has always been committed to working for the success of the customs through revenue collection and prevention of losses.

Meanwhile, the Webb Fontaine boss, while delivering a paper on Port Community System (PCS) recently in Lagos, commended President Bola Tinubu’s moves to establish a National Single Window (NSW), saying it was a step that would benefit the country in many areas.

He added that the PCS could run under a single window conveniently targeting port users primarily to achieve better inclusion of all stakeholders in the environment.
