Customs seizes contraband rice hidden in Yola residential building
Operatives of the Adamawa/Taraba Command of the NCS on Monday drove in eight pickup vans from the command headquarters in Kofare, Jimeta, to the house in which the bags of rice were kept several kilometres away in the Doubeli area of Jimeta, and loaded the rice which they took back to their headquarters.
Spokesman of the Adamawa/Taraba Command of the NCS, Mu’awuya Abubakar, who addressed newsmen in Doubeli as the rice was being moved into NCS vans, said his men and officers were alerted of the contraband rice by an informant. “As you can see, we’ve been removing the bags of rice into our vehicles and we are taking them to our warehouse. We’ll keep striving to see that smuggled rice that get past the borders don’t get to the market.”
