The Edo/Delta Area Command of the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) has declared N30 billion as its revenue for the period January to August.
The command comptroller, Babatunde Olomu, made the disclosure on Tuesday during a media briefing in Warri, Delta State, while giving an account of how it had fared, especially in the area of revenue generation, exports, security of seizures, and infrastructure.
Olomu insisted that the challenges of low trade influx and swings in transaction rates did not deter its resolve in ensuring that revenue is maximised.
He also gave a rundown of export activities, including the volume of crude oil lifted within the period of review.
