SSS seizes 1,207 bags of foreign rice, others

At a press conference in Yola on Tuesday, the state branch controller of the Central Bank of Nigeria , Jatau Sadu, said the raids were part of the joint anti-smuggling operations of the two agencies.

“For a long time the CBN has actually been complimenting the effort of the federal government in that respect, especially given our intervention programmes in various sectors of the economy, particularly the agricultural sector,” he said. “Unfortunately, these efforts that we are proud of are being frustrated by some unscrupulous elements in our society. People smuggling foreign rice, in particular, thereby frustrating our farmers and the effort of government.He said because of Nigeria’s porous borders and the inadequate number of customs operatives to man them, the partnership with the SSS became imperative. He said the cooperation has led to seizure of a contraband goods smuggled into the country.
