Smugglers of rice have lost millions of naira following the seizure of goods, such as rice and vegetable by the Customs anti-smuggling operatives in Jemita, Yola, Adamawa State.<\/p>\n

The leader of the anti-smuggling team, Deputy Comptroller of Customs, Hassan Shallangwa, said improved logistics, robust welfare by the Comptroller-General of Customs (CGC) and increasing willingness of Nigerians to give information to operatives contributed to the success recorded by the Customs.<\/p>\n

The Nigeria Customs Service, Deputy Public Relations Officer, Mr Joseph Attah, disclosed this in a statement yesterday, adding that it was based on a tip off that his team was able swoop on the two large wooden boats that were fully loaded with rice, sugar and jerry-cans of vegetable oil being smuggling through Damare waterside, Jemita-Yola.<\/p>\n

He said with intelligent network across the country and co-operation of communities, it has become increasingly unwise for any business man or woman to embark on smuggling that will end in loss of wealth and possible jail term.<\/p>\n
