Adamu said the command had deployed measures towards ensuring that the area becomes unbearable to smugglers and non-compliant traders.

He said among the items seized are 140 rolls of foreign rugs, 50 bales of second-hand clothing, 920 kegs of Premium Motor Spirit, eight motorcycles and 200 pieces of used tyres.

“The Cumulative Duty Paid Value for all the seized items amounted to N755,377,866.00,” Adamu stated. The comptroller said the success was recorded due to the massive intelligence deployed during the operations, adding that no casualty was recorded as the rules of engagement were applied during the operations.
