Na wa oo. Everybody just dey shout PMB.

It is an offence to bring in rice through the Land borders and most of these traders know that. It is unfortunate that it is the same custom officials that they bribed while smuggling in the rice that will still go ahead to hint their other commands on how to seize the contraband.

I was at Ido terminus yesterday and the price of a bag has sky rocketed but nobody said their shops have been raided by customs as majority of their goods are cleared through Apapa port.

The only thing that baffles me in the entire issue is the idea of raiding peoples' shops in the middle of the night like armed robbers. It is totally unacceptable.

Why do you choose to be daft like this? Who told they did not pay for duty or the source of the rice they are selling? Why defending the indefensible? What stopped them from coming in the day? How did they know the imported and local rice since most are packaged same? This act of impunity must stop.

there is the part of the law that requires a search warrant be presented to the owners of a place right before the search takes place. i hope these women would follow the provisions the law has given them to seek redress if they feel cheated.

Sharrap abeg. Should hoarding of essential commodities be encouraged? When prices skyrocket, it is the same Buhari you will blame. Sharp practices in business will always be at the detriment of the masses not the rich.
Meaning what exactly? Is there anything like "hoarding" or "essential commodity" in our laws? What is the prescribed punishment.? Those traders need to get a good lawyer because this action cannot be lawful

It only in nigeria that the citizens cry in silence, we cry only on Internet. We neva think of staging a great protest that will remove any bad government. Nigerians are still blind to know there right, I blame illiteracy. Most government loot money and we clap for them. When are we going to think straight, imagine Brazilians protesting over corruption when such is acceptable in nigeria, they give us stipend and watch us kill ourselves.
to sum it up Nigeria is Africa largest economy don't be deceived south Africa standard of living is much more greater than ours. Think of many more countries and ask yourself a question.

Same thing happened here in Badagry roundabout on friday morning..... The question is..."Why come in the middle of the night"?...... Secondly, if it's a genuine operation, why do they have to steal phones and money from the guys protecting the goods and shops??....... I pity this country's condition in the nearest future

and u are there when they paid and how can u assume they are innocent I believe they are not the only rice seller. if u are close to this borders u know smuggling and bribing are the order of the day, so if custom decide to change that everyone should cooperate by going about their businesses in a legitimate manner.

We are in TROUBLE and deep shit with this daft, dumb and dull man from Daura who knows NOTHING about the economy. shocked
The way he RUINED us in the 80s before Babangida kicked his ass out is the way he has started to ruin us yet again.
Who is going to save us from our error this time?
How do we save ourselves from the DOOM of this "expired" leader looter

It is the same shit all over again.
The soldiers and customs officers are simply following the STENCH of Buhari's body language odour to also do their own CORRUPTION while pretending to the 200 million mumu citizens (who don't want to work and PAY for things but prefer FREEBIES) that they are enforcing non-existent laws that will DISCOURAGE genuine entrepreneurs and business people from doing business in our country.
How did we get here again despite all the warning

They came for the Jewish, but I didn't speakup

They came for the Arab in my compound bu I didn't care cos he is Arab anyway

They came for me, but you kept quiet

They will soon come for you.

These are the same people who condoned the murder by the zoo security cowards of a Biafran young lady and 8 others fighting for freedom

Now we should be concerned about their rice ?
Absolutely! And on and on it goes until there is no one left. Ultimately there either will be Revolution or.....?
Re: Custom Officials, Soldiers Raid Lagos Rice Stores. History Repeating Itself? by EdDave(m): 12:15pm On Dec 06, 2015
Buhari has dissappointed me. Why rob traders (and collect their money too?) at night when you can arrest in the day or at the borders. This is not the way to go.
And he can't claim he doesn't hear about this. Cos that ll be really dissappointing.
