President Bola Tinubu has congratulated Dr Adewale Bashir Adeniyi, Comptroller-General of the Nigerian Customs Service (NCS), on his 60th birthday on January 19.
In a statement by his spokesman, Bayo Onanuga, the President rejoiced with the Comptroller-General on the milestone, marked by years of dedicated service to the nation, hard work, and a commitment to excellence.
As the Customs boss, Adeniyi has instituted landmark reforms that have repositioned the NCS for efficient service delivery. He has also improved community relations, increased revenue, and enhanced trade with other countries.
President Tinubu noted Adeniyi’s efforts in transforming the NCS into a globally competitive institution, culminating in his election as Chairman of the World Customs Organisation (WCO) in June 2025.
The President commended the Comptroller-General for positively projecting Nigeria and Africa by providing inclusive, practical and charismatic leadership at the WCO.
As the Customs boss turns 60, the President prayed that God Almighty will grant him renewed strength, good health and wisdom to keep serving the nation.
