  “₦1,000 for just 8 tomatoes” — Man fumes over rising food prices, says Nigerians are suffering under hardship A Nigerian man has gone viral after lamenting the rising cost of food, revealing that he bought just eight tomatoes for ₦1,000 at a market in Yaba. In a video shared online, he questioned how families, especially large households, are expected to survive amid rising food prices, stressing that basic ingredients like tomatoes, pepper and onions have become increasingly difficult for many to afford. The visibly angry man also criticised the state of the country, expressing frustration over hardship, insecurity and the rising cost of living in Nigeria. Watch video below.

Image result for nigeria customs logo                     The attention of the Nigeria Customs Service has been drawn to a mischievous publication in some prints and online platforms that the service has seized vehicles belonging to a Senator in Kano.Since this is capable of misleading the public into wrong insinuations,it is imperative to state the facts.That the Operatives of NCS Compliance Team,based on credible intelligence,trailed the movement of some smuggled vehicles from Maigatari,Jigawa State to a house at Magaji Rumfa,GRA Kano.
           On the 7th February,2017,eleven {11} vehicles,10 Hilux and one {1} Land cruiser jeep were retrieved from the house at Magaji Rumfa GRA,Kano and taken for detention at the HQ of Customs Area Command Kano.That the officers discovered three were no occupants in the house,hence the gate was forced opened to retrieve the smuggled vehicles.That investigation into the smuggling of the vehicles is still on to establish the true owner.From the above,it is clear that whoever introduced the ''Senator'' angle to the story is out for pure mischief and does not represent the position of the service on this issue.Accordingly,the false and misleading report should be discountenance please.
