President Bola Tinubu extends Customs boss Bashir Adeniyi's tenure
The Presidency Thursday announced that the tenure of the Comptroller-General of the Nigeria Customs Service, Mr Bashir Adewale Adeniyi, which is due to expire on August 31, 2025, has been extended by one year.
The extension, approved by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, will enable Mr Adeniyi to consolidate ongoing reforms and complete critical initiatives of this administration, including the modernisation of the Nigeria Customs Service; the implementation of the National Single Window Project; and the execution of Nigeria's obligations under the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) protocol.

The President said he is confident that this extension will further strengthen the Nigeria Customs Service in achieving its strategic mandate of trade facilitation, revenue generation and border security.
