The Nigeria Customs Service says its operatives have intercepted nine containers carrying offensive items including arms, ammunition, illicit drugs and second-hand clothes worth N13.9 billion.
The Comptroller-General of Customs, Wale Adeniyi disclosed this on Monday while addressing journalists in Onne Port in Rivers State. Adeniyi said one of the containers which originated from Turkey, based on the number of risk factors associated with the importation, became a subject of interest to the service.
Giving details of the container, the CG said, the Customs had followed its sail across continents and have benefitted immensely from credible information through its collaboration with intelligence communities both at local, national and international levels.
According to him, the importer tried to circumvent the procedure through the outlet of a private-bonded terminal. Speaking further, he said on Friday 21st of June 2024, the auspicious container was subjected to a thorough physical examination and 844 units of assorted riffles and 12,500 pieces of life ammunition were discovered in it concealed with various items like doors, furniture fittings and leather bags.
