…N12.36bn worth of items seized in 16 months–NCSPump-action guns, cartridges/ammunition, bags of rice, drums of Premium Motor Spirit , etc.

, were among items seized by the Federal Government during the 16-month period that Nigeria’s land borders were closed.

During the border closure, several items were seized by the joint border patrol team of the Nigerian government, as different patrol teams were also established in the republics of Benin and Niger. On the number of other seized items, the NCS said the team seized 1,957 vehicles, 895 motorcycles, 10,447 bags of fertilisers, 18,630 jerrycans of vegetable oil, 74,307 jerrycans of PMS, and 5,653 drums of PMS.

He said, “I want you to know that since the border closure, there have been diplomatic engagements. We’ve had meetings in Burkina Faso sometime in the past. There have been commitments to adhere to the rules as against before. “When people ask what we achieved by closing the borders, I just laugh. The exchange of prohibition lists alone is a very huge achievement because we are looking at ensuring safer borders and ensuring security,” he said.

EndSARS look at some of the craziest things we have experienced happening only in nigeria and also subscribe to the YouTube channel

They also went to town that they were making 1 billion naira daily as the border was closed. Their accounts needs to be audited.

Hello guys JudgeKorner has just been elected as an IntlCrimCourt judge today. Please Go to her TL and congratulate her and also remind her to jail MBuhari , Buratai and the IGP for crimes against humanity. We need justice for LekkiMassaccre

Lol very funny indeed 😄 😆

Borders close or borders open are the same thing, North is not secured

So if the borders weren't closed, guns won't be ceased? Where do boko Haram,bandits, kidnappers, get their guns from?

Hahahahahah I don’t need to pay for a comedy show again 😂😂our leaders are big time comedians. Nigeria matter no dey pain me again kaiiii 😅

Omo na story Dem go still cash out abegi no be this country

Hmmmm!! Please follow for a quick follow back here

Audio seizure

If it is until we close borders that custom could do their job then it's unfortunate. We have no reason at all to close borders. It is primitive. Nig is never an Island.

Okay!!!!!!Action film don end, Na now! Dem wan close border Jokers!!!

Trying to justify your tomfoolery.

Can I take a look at them

Rubbish achievement

I no tell u na bokoharam and bandits like the president we have dem open border for

Lia Mohammed at Work!!....Ndi Oshi !!

Only

Despite these claims, insecurity became worsened during these six months and the economy grounded.,..so what did we achieve?

Once I see' FG', I zoom zoom zoom

Is this to justify the hunger and suffering of the masses?..

This is stupid

If only they are as effective on the south as in the north too. Bandits walk in from Niger Republic and create havoc in Katsina and other part of the north. There should a balanced import-export restriction in the country.

Go and hug transformer

MBuhari welldone sir🙏

Please oh ifb asap

Why are we placing ban on rice importation when we clearly know we aren't doing anything in growing local production? We rather let some few rice farmers in this country dictate at exorbitant prices? Should we be enslaved by our own people? What can be done pls?

What er they going to use it for again... Give it out to their political hoodlums again for Election purpose... Bullshit government
