Nothing is ever right in this country. Customs man border areas & not hinterland. What a misplaced priority all in the bid by the administration to make life more difficult for Nigerians.
No to foreign rice, yes to foreign medical trips.
No need to patronise foreign rice any longer
There is foreign rice everywhere in katsina, Gombe and kano states but they won't go there
na so una go distroy alot of market goods worth plenty money all in d name of searching for imported rice,
What if the foreign rice was legally brought in?
The crazy part is everyone in Nigeria knows these things still comes into the country. Everyone should now know it is still their feofle bringing those things inside the country, so they now do show off and call TV crew to come and show us paid adverts 😡🤬
After negelenting their duty post
What is this again. Nigeria
Well if u can do ur as a custom u wouldn't have come to the market and harassing people after collecting bribes at border area's allowed smugglers to come in with contraband
People were told soldiers raided markets 1983=84 to force traders to reduce the price of goods, and seize goods dat they believe were sold too high(irrespective of how much the traders bought it) we did not listen, this is history we cld have avoided
Nice one
