COMPTROLLER NJOBDI

NJOBDI: A Dedicated And High Repute  Customs Officer

By Ahmad Umar

Comptroller Abdulmumini Njobdi is an accomplished public servant, he belongs to the prestigious club of most exalted personalities in the Nigeria Customs Service.

Comptroller Njobdi touches many lives including that of the publisher of KebbiTrust online newspaper. In other words without Njobdi's assistance I doubt if I can be able to write this article.

He changes many lives from negative to positive without anticipating any commensurate reward.

For the first time in my life, I want to reveals how this good samaritan save my education ambition from collapsing at JSS3. Njobdi himself will hear this for the first time:

After completion of my first half secondary education (JSS3) In 1995, my parents boldly told me 'I am on my own' meaning they have done all they could, if I can continue with my education fine, if I cannot I should decide for my future endeavors.

It was at this critical time God the Almighty sent Njobdi to intervene, we met at Kamba Customs Barracks, he was a Two- Star officer then, he fully sponsored my Senior Secondary Education.

The kind of big money he used to give me on weekly basis made me to concentrate on my studies to the extent of becoming overall performing student which leds to my appointment as SCHOOL HEAD BOY; Courtesy of Comptroller Njobdi.

Even when he was transferred from Kamba, Kebbi State to Kano State he still invited me and sponsored me to read Information Technology at INTERSYSTEM INSTITUTE OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY, KANO.

He also plays a key role in facilitating my admission into B.Sc Mass Communication, Bayero University, Kano.

I learnt that there were numerous people like me assisted by this Customs officer.

Njobdi can be described in line with Hausa's famours proverbs 'ZUMA GA ZAKI GA HARBI' he can spend the whole day cracking jokes with you, but mistakenly you provoke him; your own done finish. 

Njobdi called me by my nick name 'SADDAM' and I called him 'OGA',
He is one of the most patience person full of 'tawakalli'.


He is very vast in Islamic and western education. He holds Masters degree from University of Lagos and have large portion of Holy Qur'an in his mind.

He like reading newspaper and magazines, in fact I developed interest in media through him.

He is happily married to a highly Beautiful Barrister Ya'aji Sanda Kodonga, a loving partiner he met at University of Maiduguri where he obtained his B.Sc.

On behalf of my humble self, my children Salim, Siddiqa and Sadiq we join hundreds of  staff, families, friends and  other well wishers in congratulating Baba Njobdi in his recent promotion to the rank of COMPTROLLER of NIGERIA CUSTOMS SERVICE.

 I have no words to express my appreciation to Baba Njobdi expect with a prayer of long life, prosperity and Allah's guidance.

Baba Njobdi meyatti, Allah hukkuma Aljanna.
