Times are hard and there's obvious recession n hunger in the land and those asking you to curtail rice smuggling are somewhere in a better condition giving no two fvcks bout you or ur lives and instead applying wisdom and sense to make situations better, ur rather making it hard and even taking ur duty too far and they've now resolve to using arms in desperation. no pity's given over here to the dead customs 47 Likes 1 Share |

If Custom officers can't stop smugglers from smuggling goods into Nigeria at the boarder. Make dem just free the smugglers if dem don cross deep into Nigeria territory... Instead of engaging them in firefight. The FG should start letting people import rice through the land boarder. 73 Likes 1 Share |

DubaiLandLord: The problem with your ideology is that if the government allows a free for all at the border , we would 1.Have our local rice industry damaged....job lossses result. 2.Lose more forex...bad news for our economy. There shouldun't be a total shutdown of imports...but smuggling should not be allowed. 15 Likes 1 Share |

heendrix: We don't have a vibrant textile industry like we did in the 60's-early 90's because of massive smuggling from outside. That means job losses, and a host of other problems. We are trying now to develop our rice industry for over a decade now. And smuggling threatens it. The thing is, smuggling of rice harms us all. It harms the local rice industry, hindering job growth, and also causes loss of forex and revenue in customs duties and tax...WHICH forces us to be more dependent on loans, and worsens inflation (since oil money is not as plentiful as it should be). 8 Likes |

Can't the government engage foreign investors from Thailand, China and USA to come in and bring in rice at an agreed tarriff and quality,then require them to set up local production with tax incentives in a 5-7 years Rice development plan.......a kind of backward integration policy like what Dangote and BUA are enjoying on sugar. It surely can be done only if we set our minds to it 25 Likes |

[quote author=anorexicmuster post=106803561] We don't have a vibrant textile industry like we did in the 60's-early 90's because of massive smuggling from outside. That means job losses, and a host of other problems. We are trying now to develop our rice industry for over a decade now. And smuggling threatens it. Buhari pikin... Epele ooo.. See as you dey reason.... Government policies kill the textile industry my brother and it made importation attractive. The same with parboiled rice.. When last did you or your family eat the local rice? Secondly how much is it? Why is the government fighting a natural law? Do you know how much they sell rice in the north? It's far cheaper than the south and you know why? Because they borders are porous and the government isn't doing anything about it. Government should fix the local rice productions and and make it affordable and cheaper and nutrients filled.. It will naturally displaced the demand for foreign rice. People are hungry , that's when you are planning to develop what was already dead. Isn't that wickedness? Instead of the government to lower the import duty and tax so that people can bring rice through our ports thereby generating funds for the government, it is blocking our borders. The government with her policies are killing Nigerians and businesses... Do you know it is the same reasons why people prefer to import automobiles through the land borders because to clear a car at our port is more expensive and people will prefer other countries... Stop your unnecessary sympathy for a failed administration and start reasoning normally. 16 Likes 2 Shares |

If I am the president...I will bring the full force of the federal power against the smuggler. I will find their warehouse, auction or dash it out. Reposses the facilities for government, shut out the smuggler from using Nigerian banking system and forfeit their money to government. Go after their personal asset and auction...I will still go after any of their adult children whom might have received money from their account and put them as accomplice. 5 Likes |

If customs failed to do their job properly at the boarder to stop smuggling then i see no sense coming into town to mount road blocks thereby putting people’s life at risk. It’s just unreasonable. Government needs to reform the agency. 2 Likes |
