In continuation of the fight against smuggling, a Joint Special Taskforce comprising of the operatives of Ogun I command, Federal Operation Unit Zone A and CGC’s Strike Force of the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) have intercepted 13 Jerry cans of 25 litres and six Jerry cans of 10 litres of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) concealed clandestinely in two caskets.

The Public Relations Officer, Ogun I command of the Service, Abdullahi Maiwada who confirmed the interception to newsmen in a statement on Wednesday noted that the said items were conveyed by a daredevil smuggler with the intention of smuggling the items across the border to a neighbouring country in a Mazda 626 with Lagos registration number LSD 617 CW.

Maiwada reiterated the command’s position to the effect that there was no retreat on the fight against smuggling in whatever disguise.

“We therefore appeal to the general public to embrace legitimate means of livelihood and to avoid smuggling in all its ramifications. The eagle eye is all around Ogun state to halt new techniques initiated by economic saboteurs to perpetuate their illicit acts”, he said.
