The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) on Wednesday decorated 28 of its newly -promoted officers in Seme Area Command with their new ranks.
Addressing the newly promoted officers at Seme border post, the Acting Customs Area Controller, Mr Chedi Wada, said promotion was associated with additional responsibilities.
The acting controller told the officers that promotion comes with new responsibilities and urged them to show more commitment to the service.
“You have to prove to the management that you are capable of that new rank and let the service know that you merit the rank.
“Though promotion comes from God, when you are uplifted, it means that they want you to show more commitments to the service.
“Put in your best to the service by adding value to human existence.
“When it comes to promotion, I want to categorically say that uplifting of an individual comes from God,” he said.
Wada commended the Comptroller General, Col. Ahmed Alli, (rtd), for his unique reform in promotion exercises of the service.
“You will all agree with me that the new system by the CGS has brought about changes in the mode of our promotion.
“You will also agree with me that promotion before had a lot of issues here and there, but if you look at it now, it is a matter of getting prepared and do your best.
“You know people or you don’t know anybody, so far you have done well in examination, give the rest to God, you will be promoted,” he said.
