The Presidential hopeful and immediate past Acting National President of Association of Nigerian Licensed Customs Agents (ANLCA) in the 2023 NECOM election, Dr. Collins Kayode Farinto has hinted that if voted into power come August 15, 2023, he will make moves for ANLCA to take over the fallow Brawal Terminal (Kirikiri Lighter Terminal) and make it boom again.
Farinto gave the assurance on Thursday during his campaign visit to the terminal.
He said, “I am just looking at this place being empty with no activities, ANLCA can apply to the necessary authorities and take over this place to make it boom again. I am a thinker.”
He stated further that his ten point agenda as contained in his manifesto is all and encompassing that will bring prosperity to members of ANLCA if voted into office.
Dr Farinto informed the Customs management at the command that though the association has been in crises in the last five years, the NECOM election is going to bring the crises to an end and bring stability to the association.
Both discussed on the long standing relationship with each organisation and agreed to continue on the existing relationship, especially on trade facilitation and other areas of benefits to both parties.
The Chairperson of KLT Chapter, Esther Oyeleke while welcoming the Dr Farinto Collins campaign team, urged all members in the chapter to cast their votes for the team as they are the only candidates that can bring back the lost glory of the association.
All other candidates in the Farinto team also seek the votes of their members in the chapter and were assured of 100% votes for the team.
With the visit to KLT Chapter, the Dr Farinto Collins campaign team have ended its campaign tour of all Zones and Chapters of the association across the country.
