Standoff Between Customs Officers And Trailer Drivers In Aba. Photos by PrettyCrystal(op): 3:20pm On Nov 09, 2018
There was a standoff between officers of the Nigerian Customs Service and trailer drivers earlier today in Aba, Abia state.

It was gathered that the Customs officials came to seize a trailer container in Aba after they were allegedly settled in Port-Harcourt, Rivers state capital.

The trailer drivers who protested against what they termed as extortion by the officers - blocked the Port-Harcourt/Aba express road to register their anger.

The drivers blocked the major highway with their trailers as a protest not to pay another money to the Custom officers who insisted the driver must move the said container to a specific location until he settled them.

The incident attracted a large number of crowd which gathered to resist the officials.

What business has customs officials in the cities instead at the border or post of entry? Nigeria is one shithole that has retarded protocol.

Like Peter Obi lamented sometime ago when he traveled by road from Lagos to the South East that Customs are active when it comes to SE, you hardly see them working in the northern borders where trailer loads of items come in daily illegally.

But if a trader goes to Kano market to buy an item, it will be seized by Customs at Onitsha Head bridge, meanwhile, the Alhaji who sold the goods to the trader from his warehouse in Kano will never be questioned and you ask why there is agitation for Biafra in the SE sad

The revolution is gradually gathering momentum.


Kudos to the Aba drivers for resisting the aggressors successfully.


Here is hoping that all drivers everywhere will take a cue from the impregnable Biafrans.


God punish the Customs.
