Although, the Area Postal Manager failed to disclose the amount owed it, he appealed to ministries, parastatals, corporate bodies and other customers who are indebted to it debt, as failure to do so will force the committee to come afte them.
Explaining further, Alhaji Mahmud said with the computerisation of operations, the billing system would be done electronically to check over-billing being complained by customers. He assured that even the billing system would be gotten electronically and distributed in hard copies to the customers.
Alhaji Mahmud also announced the introduction of Airpost Express which he said is aimed at ensuring prompt and fast delivery of very timely messages to customers.
