Customs arrest trailer carrying banned injection, others in Imo

Briefing journalists on Friday, the Customs Area Controller, Kayode Olusemire, said the trailer, with the number plate LSD 347 XD carried 1,182 cartons of analgin injection.The comptroller cartons of underwear and other consignment were used to conceal the deadly injections.

He disclosed that the trailer was intercepted and arrested at Akpado along Port Harcourt-Owerri Expressway. Olusemire, who said each packet of the analgin contained 100 bottles of the injection, wondered how much the smuggler invested in smuggling such number of the product into the country. He said, “The side effects of the analgin to human body are enormous. There are people when you inject the drug to them, they start to vomit uncontrollably. It paralyses some people when they take the injection. Owing to all these and more, Nigeria banned the use of the drug and sister drugs like Novalgin in 2005 from coming into the country.”All rights reserved.
