The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) wrapped up its transformative Reputation Management Campaign in Zone ‘D’, Bauchi, marking the completion of a nationwide initiative aimed at bolstering integrity, public trust, and service delivery.
The campaign, held at Zone ‘D’ Headquarters, brought together officers from area commands to reinforce the NCS’s commitment to institutional reforms.
Acting Zonal Coordinator Comptroller Musa Binga, represented by Comptroller Matawalle Ibrahim of the Bauchi/Gombe Command, delivered the keynote address, praising officers for their engagement and urging them to integrate the campaign’s lessons into daily operations.
“Reputation is not an afterthought; it is an asset,” Binga emphasized. “As custodians of national integrity, every officer’s conduct shapes public perception of the Service.”
Assistant Comptroller Abdullahi Maiwada, the National Public Relations Officer, opened the event, highlighting the campaign’s focus on embedding professionalism, transparency, and accountability across all levels of the NCS.
