The Nigeria customs service (NCS), says it has intercepted a container concealing parts of over 140 pump-action rifles and seized cannabis-infused products worth ₦373.8 million at the Tincan Island port, Lagos.
A statement by service public relations officer, Abdullahi Maiwada says the rifle components, identified preliminarily as jojeff pump-action rifles, were discovered after the container was flagged by customs’ intelligence-driven risk management system, leading to the arrest of two suspects while another remains at large.
In a separate operation, officers seized 109 cartons of delta-8 cannabis infused pre-roll cookies, 125 cartons of gummies and 73 cartons of cannabis-infused cookies concealed alongside other imported goods.
Comptroller General of customs Adewale Adeniyi warned that criminal networks could exploit Nigeria’s borders during the upcoming election cycle and vowed to intensify security operations while tackling internal complicity.
He also urged Nigerians to provide credible intelligence as the service works with sister security agencies to combat smuggling and protect the nation’s borders.
