These custom people will one day come to our house to seize our bag of rice if their excesses are not checked

….Or worse, remove pot on top fire and tell you it’s for evidence when you protest!

It was Buhari's regime that gave room to lawlessness. That matter was settled long ago during OBJ istration

Commendable judgement!
How will customs leave borders to start harassing people moving goods on highways? This judgement will also apply to vehicles and other imported items. Customs should go to the borders to enforce duties, not seize vehicles citizens have bought from car shops.
Nice thing he will be compensated at current prices.

Courts have already restricted FRSC to their jurisdiction which is federal roads.

After that judgement i how a state governor in the south west confronted them and warned them to stay of the state roads.

In my state I now only find them on federal roads even though they often prefer to station in the sections of the federal roads that are in town.
that restrictions to federal roads is not enough na outright ban from any road be the Koko make them to fine work and be useful to their family

That is only on paper.

Come to Port Harcourt, you'll see them scattered everywhere
The state government can warn them like a South West governor did in the past.

Court restrict FRSC from state road but you will still see them on lekki Epe expressway which belongs to the state.
The state government can warn them like another South West governor did in the past.

Landmark judgement. You allowed smugglers to get in with a vehicle and this was done in active connivance with their men, I buy such vehicle, then i'm seen on the road and the one they attack and harass. Stupid people.

Good one, those useless custom people will be stopping cars on the highway and asking for custom paper, car that has already been ed in Nigeria.

VIO down
CUSTOM down
Na the madness of FRSC be the next.
The one in my area , they have a big pot hole in their junction, instead of them to facilitate the filling of the pot hole to allow smoother driving of cars, they turned the spot into a check point. No be madness be dat☹️
FRSC has been restricted to federal roads only for my side.

One of the most corrupt and criminal cartel in Nigeria is the NCS. They will collect hefty bribe from you at the border and allow contraband goods into the country then track you to your retailers and seize same goods again!!!

Heartlessly wicked!!!!

The corruption in Nigeria custom is unimaginable. You can't equate it with anything else anywhere...even Mexican drug cartels dey learn work. I am speaking from first hand experience.

Well done brave Judge. Hopefully a sincere government will come sanitize our institutions and punish offenders severely in the future

You need to think reasonably human.

So if an illegal goods crosses border, also without paying required custom duty, then the Customs should just 'leave' it, because it has crossed the border?

If it has been snuggled in
They can't go to the shops to be seizing things that's what the law says. Okrika goods, tokunbo cars, foreign rice, tyres, foreign fabrics are contraband. Should I go on? If u allow that law, customs will have a field day forever. Be wise. Don't be unwise. Oponu.
