Operatives of the Maiduguri Zonal Command of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, (EFCC) on Tuesday arrested 21 trucks loaded with food and non-food items heading towards Borno neighbouring countries..

EFCC’s Head of Media and Publicity, Mr Dele Oyewale, in a statement on Tuesday said the trucks were intercepted in a sting operation at major exit routes along Kalabiri/Gamboru Ngala and Bama roads, in Borno State.

Oyewale said nvestigations showed that the foodstuffs were cleverly concealed in the trucks that would have gone undetected, but for the eagle-eyed vigilance of the EFCC operatives.

He disclosed further that the Waybills covering the goods indicated their destinations as N’djamena, Chad Republic, Central Africa Republic and Cameroon respectively.

“The arrest of the trucks is expected to stem the tide of food insecurity occasioned by unscrupulous antics of smugglers across the country,” Oyewale said.

The anti-graft agency’s spokesman added that those arrested in connection with the food smuggling were being profiled and culprits shall be prosecuted after investigations.

“Suspects arrested with the trucks are being profiled and would be charged to court as soon as investigations are concluded,” the statement read.

The Rat Don Die, @Thesicilian

We Still Remain King Of Terrible BAD NEWS

I'm not disputing that.
But it looks too peaceful in its death
The hair is not scattered, no part of the body is inside the rice, it's still looking robust. Normally a rat that dies in a bag of rice or garri will have most of it the fluids in its body dried out into the grains

Mr Nlfpmod

Nice one… keep it up

Nna mehn, this country should just divide. The north are only supporting the one-nigerian mantra only when it favours them. They never give a fcku about anybody papa down south.

COMRADES, please when did efcc start conducting stop and search operations? Where were the police and customs officers? Is it not their responsibility?

This is economic sabotage. The owners of these trucks and goods should be sent to prison...
Nigerians are very greedy mehn

My brother, normal business that people were doing without any hitches. Poor policies couple with wide spread insecurity, resulting to the inability of farmers to go to farm has caused prices to soar and hunger. Instead of government to tackle the root causes, they are busy harassing people doing business.

..

It's wicked act to take away what belongs to the people from them
