The Nigeria Volleyball Reporters (NVR) have extended heartfelt congratulations to the Comptroller General of the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS), Bashir Adewale Adeniyi, on the extension of his tenure by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
In a congratulatory message signed by Ganiyu Oloyede on behalf of the association, the reporters praised CGC Adeniyi’s exceptional leadership, describing his renewed mandate as a testament to his dedication, professionalism, and transformative impact on the Nigeria Customs Service.
He said, “The extension of your tenure is well-deserved and a reflection of your unwavering commitment to national development, transparency in service, and capacity-building within the Nigeria Customs.
Nigeria Volleyball Reporters also acknowledged the pivotal role the NCS has played under Adeniyi’s leadership in promoting sports development, particularly volleyball, through sustained support and sponsorship of grassroots and national events.
“We remain grateful for your consistent support for volleyball and sports in general. Your partnership with volleyball brought about the sponsorship of the league last season and the hosting of the 2024 CAVB Women’s Club Championship in Abuja.
“Your visionary leadership has not only repositioned the NCS for operational excellence but has also made an indelible impact on youth and sports development across the country,” the statement added.
The association wished CGC Adeniyi continued success in his renewed term, praying for wisdom, strength, and good health as he continues to serve the nation.

Agada Shines with Brace as Orijent Beat Karlovac 2-0
Nigerian forward Charles Adah Agada scored twice as HNK Orijent secured a 2-0 away victory over Karlovac 1919 in the Croatian SuperSport Prva NL on Saturday.
Orijent produced an impressive performance at the Branko Čavlović-Čavlek Stadium in Karlovac to claim all three points in the league encounter.
Agada, a former Mavlon FC of Lagos attacker, was the standout performer, finding the net twice to help the visitors overcome their hosts and strengthen their position in the league campaign.
Orijent went into the half-time break with a 1-0 advantage before extending their lead in the second half.
The Nigerian striker completed his brace with the goal that made it 2-0 in the 57th minute.
Karlovac were unable to find a response as Orijent held on to their advantage to secure victory away from home.
The result represents an important boost for Orijent, who will look to build on the performance in their subsequent league fixtures.
For Agada, the brace underlines his value to the team as Orijent continue their campaign in Croatia’s second-tier football competition.
He has built an important role on loan at the club and has successfully established himself as a regular fixture in their lineup, appearing in all 8 league matches so far this season.
