Mustapha expressed confidence in enhanced cooperation to secure the maritime domain and support the country\u2019s economic growth.<\/p>\n<p>The FOC\u2019s remarks reinforced a shared belief: secure seas enable development, and sustained collaboration between the Customs and the Navy is vital for both national security and economic prosperity. The visit concluded with a mutual commitment to stronger cooperation and more streamlined processes to bolster security and facilitate legitimate trade at the nation\u2019s premier port corridor.<\/p>\n<p>The piece includes visuals and references to related partners and initiatives, such as Sifax Group and Bomara Investment, highlighting the broader ecosystem around Apapa\u2019s port operations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a move to deepen inter-agency collaboration, the Customs Area Controller (CAC) of the Apapa Area Command, Comptroller Emmanuel Oshoba, paid a courtesy visit to the Flag Officer Commanding (FOC), Western Naval Command, Rear&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":10690,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10689","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-music"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 4.9.9 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"In a move to deepen inter-agency collaboration, the Customs Area Controller (CAC) of the Apapa Area Command, Comptroller Emmanuel Oshoba, paid a courtesy visit to the Flag Officer Commanding (FOC), Western Naval Command, Rear Admiral Abubakar Abdullahi Mustapha.
