The Niger/Kogi States Area Command of the Nigeria Customs Service has discovered five illegal routes through which contraband goods are smuggled into the country.
According to Badejo, between January and June this year, the Command also seized 57 exotic cars of different makes in addition to 22 bales of second hand clothing, 90 bags of fertilizer, 116 kegs of petrol, and 36 bags of parboiled rice. Badejo said the Command was able to record the feat because of the deployment “of massive intelligence and applied our rules of engagement without any casualty,” pointing out that the organisation has also been collaborating with other sister security agencies to stem smuggling in the area.
“Smugglers and criminal elements, no matter how highly placed in the society, we will not spare you. Our job is to execute government policies.”
