The Zone B of Nigeria Customs Service Federal Operations Unit Kaduna, on Wednesday, said it had seized smuggled goods valued at over N1.05 billion in the last six months.
He said the figure had doubled the seizures made within the same period in 2018, which was N504.1 million. He attributed the increase in the DPV to the considerable increase in the seizures made which was 623 in the first half of the year, as against 312 within the same period in 2018. According to him, the command will continue to sensitise communities on the negative effects of smuggling to the country’s economy, including manufacturing and employment.
