 ‘Temper justice with mercy’ – NANS appeals to Madonna University to pardon viral Gen Z nursing students The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has appealed to the management of Madonna University to reconsider the expulsion of some nursing students over their involvement in a trending social media video recorded within a hospital environment.

 Customs seized 120 trucks of smuggled grains in two weeks – Adeniyi

Comptroller General of the Nigerian Customs Service, Bashir Adewale Adeniyi, on Tuesday, disclosed that the service has arrested about 120 trucks smuggling food items from Nigeria to other countries.


Adeniyi, who was speaking at the sectoral debate organised by the House of Representatives, said the president had given a directive that the arrested trucks be diverted to the local markets in the areas where they were arrested in order to force down the process of grains and other food items.


The NCS boss, however, decried the attitude of border communities who have engaged security agents in a bid to smuggle grains out of the country.


Adeniyi added that the decision to stop the smuggling of food items was to combat hunger and not encourage those who want to enrich themselves at the expense of the people.


He warned against adopting quick-fix solutions to addressing the food scarcity in the country, adding that the country must put in place long-term measures to address the situation.


Adeniyi said that the Customs was playing its part in ensuring that the problem of food security is addressed, adding that currently, most agriculture inputs attract zero duty and zero VAT.
