The Customs Service, Seme Border Area Command, says it has arrested a fake corps member suspected of specialising in smuggling banned vehicles into Nigeria through Seme border post.
The Customs Area Controller, Comptroller Mohammed Garba, said this on Wednesday at a news conference in Seme.
“He passed the border on Sunday; so, as he was coming in the vehicle, the suspect was stopped by our intelligence officers. The comptroller said that while crosschecking the vehicle document, it was discovered that the document was reading Primera, while in reality the car was a Renault.The suspect, however, denied the allegations, during an interview with newsmen.
“The person that I took to Ghana used his passport at all the posts and after stamping it, they allowed us to pass,” the suspect said; adding that he did his NYSC programme in Kaduna State in 2016.
