Addressing officers during the handover, Comptroller Adebisi expressed deep gratitude to the personnel of the Command for their support throughout his tenure. He described the incoming CAC as a seasoned and results-driven officer, who previously served as Comptroller, Risk Management, in the Department of ICT & Modernization at the Customs Headquarters.
He urged officers to extend the same cooperation to Comptroller Aliboh to ensure continuity in the Command’s progress and to support the mandate of the Comptroller-General of Customs, Bashir Adewale Adeniyi.
In her remarks, Comptroller Aliboh thanked her predecessor for his service and congratulated him on the successful completion of his career. She acknowledged the challenges ahead but expressed confidence that with the support and dedication of the officers, the Command would build on the solid foundation already laid.
