While declaring open the “One Stop Shop”, the Zonal
Coordinator, Assistant Comptroller General, Dahiru Aminu, commended Abdullahi
for his thoughtfulness, adding that the facility would address incessant
complaints of multiplicity of alerts, which hitherto characterised the
Command.
“As the name connotes, stakeholders are enjoined to take
advantage of this, especially for the facilitation of legitimate trade,” he
said, adding that the centre will house Query and Amendment (Q & A),
Valuation and CIU, for the synchronisation and harmonisation of trade disputes.
He further congratulated the Area
Controller for embarking on projects with considerable significance to the
well-being of the officers.
He particularly eulogised the management and staff of Seven
Up Bottling Company Limited, for donating a synthetic mini pitch as part of its
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), noting that it will serve the sporting
needs of both officers and their esteemed stakeholders.
