Yaounde: Customs pays homage to deceased former DG.

The ceremony, organised at the esplanade of the Yaounde Military Stadium, held Friday, April 10. It was attended by members of the Customs and Ndzana families.

In his eulogy, the Customs Director General, Fongod Edwin Nuvaga, said the pioneer Customs boss fought a good fight. He saluted the human and professional qualities of the great servant of the State, Hubert Ndzomo Ndzana. 

According to Fongod, Ndzana’s departure to the world beyond leaves a huge void within the Cameroonian Customs administration, an institution to which he devoted his life with exemplary selflessness. 

“A man of rigour and strong integrity, Mr. Hubert Ndzomo Ndzana left his mark at the helm of the customs administration through his strategic vision and his commitment to protecting the national economy,” Fongod stated. 

He further explained that the deceased was a leader of the calibre who combined technical expertise with humanism and was a role model for several generations of customs officers. 

He summarised Ndzana’s career as a customs officer as one that highlighted passion for job well done, adherence to procedures, and above all, pride.

Beyond his official duties, the pioneer customs boss was a mentor, icon and father figure to many. 

“His humility, even at the peak of his career, will remain etched in our memories. He loved to share his experience, patiently passing on his passion for the profession to the younger generation,” Fongod said in his eulogy.
