During the event, the CG received a distinguished award as a key collaborator, following the successful signing of the MOU between NAQS and NEPZA.
In his remarks, the Vice President, Sen. Kashim Ibrahim Shettima, reaffirmed his office’s commitment to driving economic reforms and encouraged MDAs to continue ensuring that import and export processes remain seamless and efficient.
The CG noted that this recognition should serve as a motivation for all NAQS officers to strengthen collaboration and synergy with other agencies across ports, stations, and borders to make operations easier, faster, and more seamless for the good of the nation. If Nigeria succeeds, we all succeed.
