The Nigeria Customs Service, Adamawa/Taraba Area Command, generated more than N156.49 million in revenue within three months under the leadership of Comptroller Mohammed Tako, who assumed office in December 2025.
Documents made available to The PUNCH on Monday showed that the command also intensified anti-smuggling operations, resulting in the seizure of petroleum products, second-hand clothing, raw donkey skin, dried donkey meat and unregistered pharmaceutical products.
Tako warned smugglers and their collaborators to desist from illegal activities, saying the command had strengthened intelligence-driven operations across border communities and major smuggling routes in the two states.
“The Nigeria Customs Service will continue to safeguard the nation’s economic interests and ensure strict compliance with extant laws,” he said.
“Anyone found engaging in smuggling or aiding such activities will face the full weight of the law.”
