In a stunning display of revenue generation prowess, the Apapa Port Command of the Nigeria Customs Service has broken its own record with a staggering ₦20.1 billion collection in a single day.
This remarkable feat was achieved on September 9, 2025, just 24 hours after Comptroller Emmanuel Oshoba assumed office as the new Customs Area Controller.
A New Benchmark
The ₦20,156,077,098.56 collection is the highest daily revenue ever recorded by any command in the Nigeria Customs Service using the Unified Customs Management System (B’Odogwu).
This achievement is a testament to the command’s dedication to excellence and Comptroller Oshoba’s leadership.
A Vote of Confidence
Comptroller Oshoba attributed this success to the collective efforts of his team and stakeholders, saying, “It’s not the time to clap yet because clapping means removing your two hands from work to celebrate.”
He emphasized that outstanding results are the real proof of hard work, dedication, and uncompromising disposition to duty.
A Bright Future
With this record-breaking collection, the Apapa Port Command is poised for even greater achievements under Comptroller Oshoba’s leadership.
The command’s use of B’Odogwu is expected to strengthen Nigeria’s position as Africa’s largest economy, facilitating trade and revenue generation.
As Comptroller Oshoba leads the charge, the Nigeria Customs Service is set to surpass targets and make a significant impact on the country’s economy.
The future looks bright for the Apapa Port Command, and stakeholders are eagerly anticipating the next chapter in its success story.
