Bags of cannabis worth
N250m smuggled into Nigeria from Ghana have been seized along
Agbara/Badagry road by the Nigeria Customs Service.
The Western Marine Command of the NCS said in a statement.
It quoted the Controller of the command,
Yusuf Umar, as saying that the seizure was made possible following a
report.
Umar said he then mobilised his officers to the area, where they captured the boat
carrying the cannabis but the suspects escaped through the river.
He said, “Thereafter, the patrol team
waited for a while to see if they will swim up but they did not. The
officers had to bring the cannabis to the base, but no suspects were
arrested. It was packed in 43 jumbo bags and the total worth is N250m.”
