Nigeria Customs Seizes ₦3.32 Billion Worth of Smuggled Goods

The Nigeria Customs Service has dealt a big blow to smugglers by seizing goods worth ₦3.32 billion in their recent operations across Lagos and Ogun States.
The Federal Operations Unit (FOU) Zone ‘A’ in Ikeja carried out the busts, grabbing large quantities of foreign parboiled rice, synthetic cannabis (popularly called "Ghanaian Loud"), vegetable oil in jerry cans, used vehicles, petrol, second hand clothes, sugar and even roofing sheets.


Some of the main items include:
- 6,954 bags of foreign parboiled rice (that's about 12 trailer loads)
- 1,431 kg of synthetic cannabis (around 3,029 parcels)
- 3,362 jerry cans of vegetable oil
- Other things like 21 used vehicles and over 20,000 litres of petrol

The total value, including what would have been paid as duties if brought in legally, came to ₦3.32 billion. Officers also stopped 144 smuggling attempts in the South-West over six weeks and arrested eight people. The seized cannabis was handed over to the NDLEA for further action.

  1. Hmmm. What will now happen to these goods? I used to know one custom officer wife, if you go to their house you'll see bags of rice, kegs of vegetables oils, the cats they cover is more than 3 in their compound. She dash people that are worshipping her then free stuffs anyhow and these people are the ones gossiping about them outside that those things are seized items
