NCS Operatives impound 179 Seizures Contraband worth N1bn in Kaduna

The Comptroller Federal Operations Unit, Zone B Kaduna, Comptroller Musa Ibrahim Jalo is delighted to avail you with the scorecard of the Unit’s activities from May to July 2023.

Our primary assignment is that of suppression of smuggling and anti-economic activities by undesirable elements in all its ramifications.
Recall that upon his resumption of duty here at the FOU Zone B on 27 January 2023, Comptroller Jalo said that he will work not only to build on the strategies he was inheriting from his predecessor, the amiable ACG Albashir Hamisu but to continue to dialogue and where necessary continue to strengthen the pillars of the unit’s operations.

Between the Month of May and July this year, the Unit under Comptroller Jalo recorded a total of 179 seizures with a total Duty Paid Value (DPV) of N1,044,772,159.80.

The assortments of items which were arrested in different locations within the Zone were mainly intelligence driven, plus the due vigilance and diligence of Officers and Men of the Unit. Of particular note is the seizure of illicit substances like Cannabis Sativa jointly arrested with Joint Border Patrol Team (JBPT) in Kebbi, vehicles, smuggled foreign parboiled rice and Second hand clothing, foreign soaps, vegetable oil and pastas, among others.

The Officers and Men who have remained focused are presently also in sync with the current work agenda and orientation of the new administration ably led by the Ag. Comptroller -General of Customs, Bashir Wale Adeniyi MFR.

Given the aforementioned seized items which are largely prohibited, the Comptroller says:
“l like to use this medium to appeal to the perpetrators to desist and engage in legitimate trade because this Unit has no plans to negotiate our extant laws.
“We will continue to confront all acts of smugglings and to crush every obstacle on the way with all lawful force, therefore l advise Nigerians to take advantage of the renewed hope agenda of the new administration and the commitment of our CGC Bashir Adewale Adeniyi MFR, to raise the scale of trade facilitation through improved compliance and continuous partnership and engagement.

“In line with the standard operating procedure (SOP) guiding the operations of sister agencies, the Unit has handed over seized items outside its primary purview to relevant agencies.

“We have enjoyed their unwavering corporation and support and solicit for more collaboration, including your good selves, our revered gentlemen of the forth estate of the realm, for showcasing our activities even as we look forward for more of your objective reportage.”
