PH Customs Gets New Boss
The Area One Command of the Nigerian Customs Service (NSC) Port Harcourt now has a new area comptroller. He is Alhaji M. Jamose.
Jamose will now take over from the former area comptroller, Mr. Austin Warikoru whom it was gathered has been redeployed to the Tincan Island Port One.
Before his transfer, Comptroller Warikoruhad served the area command for barely six months, which has doubled the period spent by his predecessor in Port Harcourt, Comptroller Dan Ugo, just spent only thee months before he was transferred.
The Tide’s finding shows that the new comptroller, Alhaji Jamose is yet to resume fully in his area of new assignment, as Comptroller Warikoru is yet to hand over to him due to the latter’s on-going training programme.
Commenting on the new development, the Public Relations Officer of the Command, Mr. D. A. Jack said that the current redeployment is in line with the policy of the new leadership of the Nigerian Customs.
According to the P.R.O., the present leadership of customs as a policy have decided to be redeploying area comptrollers within a three months period.
This, he said, will enhance productivity of officers, pointing out that when offices are allowed to remain in a place for a long time, there tends to be diminishing returns in their operational output, and that this is what the present leadership wants to avoid.
