Nigeria is the most lawless country in the world. How can custom officials assisted by soldiers start STEALING in uniforms. They overlooked their duty at border patrol to start raiding shops in the middle of the night.

OMG....not again

Nigeria is now a country where uniformed men behave with brazen impunity in their acts of corruption.

All the Seizure would be taken to the IDPs in Maiduguri, Yobe etc to feed them at the expense of others.



That's the agenda

Same thing happened at Gbagi market in Ibadan last week Wednesday/Thursday. If the goods are truly contraband, those traders are not justified.

They stole the items . You took bribe from them, allow the goods in and went behind them in the middle of the night to steal the goods. Ok what about the money they claim was stolen? In short , this is simply armed robbery. Return their goods and learn to catch them in the act, with evidence.

hmm..

What is this called? Stealinggggg...They stole the bags of rice, they didnt seize them!!!
Chai! Diaris God

This officials must be stupid. The price of the claimed 1870 bags of rice they 'stole' should be #33,660,000 considering #18000 per bag of rice price as it is sold there. This is what they wringed them not to mention of millions of money for the vegetable oil.

They want to use it feed idp camp while someone collects money on contract from fg for thier feeding. And yet they are fighting corruption. Now its yoruba watch as everyone will condemn it but if its ipob goods then its normal

I expect Yoruba Muslims to justify this one, because if this action had happened in Onitsha they would be here to defend it

Really!

EazyMoh:
Let people like Peter Obi came and say this is also targeted against Igbo traders.

Peter Obi warned but you Yoruba Muslims condemned him for speaking out

Nope!
If you want to speak against a wrong action by any government agency you shall do so without giving an ethnic coloration to it. Kind of how the try to undermine fight against corruption.

it not spoken well for them to open someone shop without their concept

Oh my God!! but why are these uniform people disgracing us like this ehn ? They are now taking tablets after death. Ah!!

WizBLANCE:
around 4am? that's bad ooo. you dont go to peoples shop that early na..
ARE WE STILL THE SECOND BEST PRODUCERS OF RICE IN THE WORLD OR NOT?

1am not 4am

You are not far from the truth.

WizBLANCE:

of course, we are stil the second producer of rice. And we say no to smugglers

Sad seeing most comments are sympathising with smugglers economic saboteurs.
Some people are even saying why were they not informed before the seizsure or why did they come by 12am, so when coming to arrest a criminal they should inform them ba? So that they can hide whatever illegal they have, I hear una.

As read from the report even the traders themselves agreed that they are smuggled through land borders and the paid corrupt official 1k to pass so what is the fuss if upright task force confiscate it.

The traders should henceforth look inward on local rice, and how to add value to it

nigeria custom service (ncs),are so corrupt starting from their DG Hammed Ali who never for a day have any atom of respect for his office, installing of a former military man as custom boss is the highest of corruption. he is so incompetent, always been used as an errand boy to drain the country's economy from his own part. the custom ex-boss hide away 17exotic cars all to him self,, him alone knows how many he might has sold off, or countless numbers of them given to his mistress

but GOD is BIGGER than men.

Shut up. You don't know how hardworking the south is while the north relax to eat southern sweat

Hmm, New Terrorist in making by the Uniform Men of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

what the custom did is bad.
But those traders add curry to the story. Their money did not loss

while their Hausa brothers are selling the same smuggled rice here in Alaba rago with confidence they go about harassing our Yoruba neighbors, in the name of smuggled rice. the day this Hausa harassing arm of government will start harassing their Hausa brothers like the do to us I will believe in one Nigeria.

Nukualofa:

the hardworking of the south by importing and smuggling.
Na wa oo.

Custom is one of the most corrupt agency in Nigeria.

The most corrupt.

13 trucks to move 1870 bags of rice? they actually took away more than that quantity of rice.

Shey they said we are the second largest producer of rice in the world...why not make the locally produced rice cheap and readily available? Why allow these people to bring in the rice and vegetable oil before forcefully taking the stuff from them? Is it their fault that our borders are so porous? This is why rice will keep getting expensive!

BTW, where are they selling the naija rice they keep talking about? This is so not fair on these traders. The customs officers' action is tantamount to STEALING. I'm sure their wives will start selling the rice at a cheaper rate soon, after causing pain and frustration in the lives of some people.

I just laugh at your contribution. The existing local farmers are not given any atom of encouragement by the government. People will have to survive.
