Petrol Tanker Loaded With Smuggled Rice, Intercepted By The Custom. by sophimara: 4:07pm On Nov 25, 2016
The Ogun State Area Command, Nigeria Customs Service, has intercepted a petrol tanker and about 25 other vehicles loaded with smuggled bags of rice from different parts of the state.
The Area Comptroller, Hassan Gangua, who spoke at the command’s Idiroko border office, explained that the MAN diesel petrol tanker with number plate, FST 51 XE, was specially built for smuggling.
According to him the tanker, which was filled to capacity with the smuggled rice, was intercepted by customs operatives on Monday November 15, 2016, along the Idiroko border area, on its way to Lagos.
“This interception was made 24 hours after my arrival by our gallant officers,” he added.
Gangua added that 25 cars with built-in compartments, loaded with bags of smuggled rice, were also intercepted in the Idiroko area while the trailer was also intercepted at the Lagos-Sagamu interchange with about 500 bags of rice on Monday November 21, 2016.
“The goods, which were neatly packed, were being taken to the Eastern part of the country to be sold in the open market.”
