Ogun Customs seizes Police van with smuggled rice



The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS), Ogun 1 Area Command says it has intercepted a suspected police van laden with smuggled foreign rice.

The Hilux van, with police spy number plate, PF 10889 SPY, was said to have been intercepted with 27 50kg bags of foreign parboiled rice.

The Controller, Bamidele Makinde, disclosed this on Tuesday while briefing newsmen in Abeokuta.

Makinde said upon sighting customs officers, the driver of the vehicle abandoned it and fled immediately.

The Controller said though he could not authoritatively say the vehicle belongs to the police; he, however, posited that the number plate on the Hillux van with siren says it all.

Responding to questions on whether the van would be released to the police or not, Makinde said the development would be communicated to the NCS headquarters in Abuja for necessary actions.

“As it is, it will be communicated to Abuja. The NCS headquarters has the final say on what happens to it. If it is found to be a police vehicle, it is only Abuja that can release it to the police authority,” he said.

He also disclosed noted that the command was able impound 5,420 bags of rice between February 9 and March 21.

Within the period under review, Makinde explained that the command has also impounded, “133 sacks and 181 wraps (book size) of cannabis sativa; 18 units of vehicles; 13 kegs of vegetable oil; 8 bales of 19 small 'Ghana-must-go bags' and two sacks of second-hand cloths.”

Others are, “25 sacks and 4 bags of used shoes; 880 cartons of frozen poultry products and 26,725 litres of PMS."

Makinde told reporters that the total duty paid value of the seized goods is N143,905,508.

He said "Permit me to use this opportunity to appeal to parents and guardians
residing in border communities to prevail on their wards and youths to
desist from criminal activities such as smuggling, attack on Security operatives and government assets and infrastructure.


"It is important to note that activities embarked upon by the Command is a
patriotic duty in the interest of national security and economic wellbeing of
Nigeria. NCS operatives in observance of the rules of engagement will
continue to carry out its legitimate duties as prescribed by the law.

"We thank the Community leaders and other Government Agencies who are
showing concern and are collaborating with the Service for their
continuous support. We also thank and appreciate the Press for being
objective in reporting the challenges faced by Officers while executing their
duties."
