COMPT. ONYEKA'S STRONG LEADERSHIP ENGENDERS REVENUE DRIVE AS TINCAN COMMAND HAULS IN ₦120.5 BILLION IN FEBRUARY ‎

The strategic leadership and operational discipline of the Customs Area Controller (CAC) of TinCan Island Port Command of the Nigeria Customs Service, Comptroller Frank Okechukwu Onyeka, has continued to engender strong revenue drive, the command in the last month February, 2026, recorded a remarkable revenue performance by generating a whopping sum of N120,462,054,345.72.

‎
‎This figure represents a significant increase from the ₦103,612,383,381.39 recorded in February 2025. This reflects a robust year-on-year growth of over ₦16.8 billion, further cementing the Command’s status as a major revenue hub within the NCS.

‎

‎Industry stakeholders have attributed this impressive performance largely to the exemplary leadership of Comptroller Onyeka, whose proactive approach to revenue generation, trade facilitation, and anti-smuggling operations has yielded tangible results. Since assuming office, he has demonstrated a firm commitment to blocking revenue leakages, enhancing compliance, and fostering synergy with port users.

‎

‎Under his watch, the Command has intensified the use of technology, strengthened monitoring mechanisms, and improved cargo clearance efficiency, measures that have collectively boosted both transparency and productivity. His engagement with stakeholders, including freight forwarders and importers has also helped build trust and encourage voluntary compliance.

‎

‎Observers describe Comptroller Onyeka’s efforts as a yeoman’s job, noting that his hands-on leadership style and zero-tolerance stance on infractions have significantly repositioned the Command. His ability to motivate officers and men of the Command has equally played a vital role in achieving these milestones.

‎

‎The February 2026 revenue figure is not just a testament of improved trade volumes but also a reflection of disciplined administration and effective enforcement of fiscal policies. With this trajectory, the Tin Can Island Port Command is poised to exceed expectations in subsequent months.

‎

‎As the Nigeria Customs Service continues to pursue its mandate of revenue generation, trade facilitation, Anti-Smuggling and National security, the achievements recorded at Tin Can Island Port under Comptroller Onyeka stand as a model of excellence and a beacon of what strong leadership can accomplish.
