The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) on Wednesday, September 17, 2025, hosted the newly appointed Force Public Relations Officer (FPRO) of the Nigeria Police Force, Chief Superintendent of Police (CSP) Benjamin Hundeyin, at its Headquarters in Abuja.
The visit underscored the Service’s commitment to deepening inter-agency collaboration in strategic communications, public engagement, and institutional trust.
Welcoming the Force PRO, the National Public Relations Officer of the NCS, Assistant Comptroller Abdullahi Maiwada, commended CSP Hundeyin for his humility and sense of responsibility. He encouraged him to embrace teamwork and resilience in handling the demands of public relations within a security environment.
“Public relations is a learning curve. You will face stakeholders with diverse expectations, but teamwork remains the driving force for success. Build a committed team, harness the energy of young officers, and learn from your predecessors. These are the keys to leaving a lasting legacy as a spokesperson,” Maiwada stated.
He emphasized that professionalism, commitment, and resilience are crucial in safeguarding the reputation of institutions, especially in times of crisis.
In his remarks, CSP Hundeyin expressed gratitude for the warm reception, described his visit as a symbolic gesture of partnership. He stressed that security communication cannot thrive in isolation and called for closer collaboration with the Customs Service in pursuit of national security goals.
The visit ended with a tour of the Public Relations Sub-unit and the Nigeria Customs Broadcasting Network (NCBN), where CSP Hundeyin was introduced to the Service’s expanding communication infrastructure.
