Two months after mindboggling seizures of 56,750 rounds of live ammunition, Oyo/Osun Command of Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) has intercepted 181 prohibited goods, even as the Command revealed a new trend of smuggling contraband items into the country with a vehicle designed to convey frozen products for cold-room operations.
.
When Sunday Vanguard visited the Command, what could be described as a harvest of textile materials was seen in various compartments in the warehouse, along with over eight vehicles loaded with assorted textile materials. While some textile materials were packed in vehicles used to convey them, others were displayed in the open. Spectacular among the textile seizures was a 20-footer truck designed for frozen products business, loaded with 213 belts of African prints, and each belt has 600 yards of the material.
.
It was also observed that the warehouse, was filled to capacity with seizures like used tyres, vegetable oil, rice, shoes, imported vine among numerous prohibited items.
