The Nigeria Customs Service, Ogun State Area II Command, has officially released a bullion van that was seized in April 2022, following its involvement in the smuggling of rice along border communities in the state.


The bullion van, with registration number FKY 993 BZ, was intercepted by officers and men of the joint border patrol team at the Olorunda axis of Ogun State.


The command revealed that the vehicle, which was used to conceal foreign parboiled rice in 12 bags of 50kg each, also transported the sum of N24,489,500 belonging to Access Bank PLC at the time of its seizure.


The Controller, Ogun Area II Command, Bisi Alade, announced the release of the bullion van to its owner, Bankers Warehouse Ltd., during a briefing with journalists in Abeokuta on Friday.


Alade explained the circumstances surrounding the seizure, stating that the money was discovered after a thorough examination of the vehicle.

Tinubu introduced the abuse of bullion vans in Nigeria. He might even have a hand in this case. Reason why the arrest happened under Buhari but the release happened under Tinubu.
