Dikko Abdullahi, Ex-Comptroller General of Customs

The voluntary retirement of  the Comptroller General of Customs (CGC) Dikko Inde Abdullahi  from the Nigeria Customs Service (NSC), has finally received the approval of the Presidency with effect from Tuesday  18th August 2015.

The President, Alhaji Muhammadu Buhari, in a letter conveying his acceptance of the retirement, expressed the appreciation of government for the service which
the CG has rendered to the Nation in the last six  years.

In a letter written earlier in the month to Mr. President by the CGC indicating his desire to voluntarily retire from service , Dikko expressed  satisfaction for the
massive achievements recorded through dogged  implementation of his six
point agenda which has modernized the  Service.

According to him, These are; capacity building of officers and men, maximization  of the potential of  e-customs through improved Information and Communication Technology (ICT), enhanced welfare for officers and men, productive collaboration with stakeholders and coordinated public relation activities to foster mutual understanding.

In a valedictory meeting held  with officers of the service at the  headquarters, last week, he urged the personnel to remain focused and support the  incoming administration to consolidate on his achievements.
