The Nigeria Customs Service is gearing up to recruit 3,927 new officers to enhance its operations in trade facilitation and border security. This move was greenlit during the 61st quarterly meeting of the NCS Board, chaired by Minister of Finance Olawale Edun, in Abuja. The recruitment comes on the heels of the NCS’s impressive performance, having generated over ₦5 trillion in revenue by November 2024.
This achievement significantly contributes to the government’s revenue target and is expected to play a crucial role in reaching the ₦35 trillion revenue target for 2025. The NCS’s success can be attributed to reforms implemented by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, which have boosted its performance.
Minister Edun praised the NCS for its key role in Nigeria’s economic recovery, highlighting its efforts in suppressing smuggling and fostering trade. The recruitment exercise aims to provide young Nigerians with opportunities to join the NCS and contribute to its mission of supporting economic growth and development. This initiative aligns with the government’s ambitious ₦48 trillion expenditure target for 2025.
