Rice traders at Bodija market in Ibadan, Oyo State on Thursday staged a protest over the overnight raid on their stores by the Nigeria Customs Service.

It actually is robbery. How can you break into someone's house in the dead of the night like a thief?

Unless their offices and zone are being attack and face them one on one all these robbery in uniform will never stop..

Criminality at the highest order. Nigeria custom is a criminal gang

Why treat Nigerians so wickedly for government failure? Who guards the borders, who collects the custom duties, etc?

Abdvlherphyz Happened in Ikotun market Lagos this week, grain stores raided by customs in the Middle of the night. Bags of rice stolen with no afore notice, nothing, just a bunch of people in uniforms breaking and entering people's store in d night.

A very lawless country

Those custom officers here in oyo state are terrible set of pple,iseyin indigenes pursue them away from their post along km5 iseyin-ibadan road recently cuz this same issue.

Foreign rice is banned but foreign medical treatment is not.

This reckless government want to start a revolt of the masses. If the inept and corrupt Customs Officers cannot police the border effectively, they should not be confiscating traders' goods inside the country. That is illegal double taxation.

Nawa

Mangal dey play free role for Katsina, wetin concern am and customs

They'll collect bribe from importers at the borders and let the rice through only to turn back to harass the sellers in the market after buying from the importers. Isn't this witchcraftcy?

So customs have gotten new job role?...ok

Why all this is happening in southern nigeria, na waooooooo

Baba Buhari Oti wale ! That was the slogan then !

This is robbery. Overnight operation? As how naw? Is this how our worst our govt is?

You will never hear them raid rice shop in the North, only alcohol shop that is always raided constantly in the North, we are watching....

Even Custom officer's done they thief rice

ayemojubar Wait sef!!! Is the imported rice a poison?

They should match to governors house and make sure he paid for every missing items. Clueless government.

Breaking and entering robbery.

When the farm land is not safe for farming what does the country even understand about humanity? Law enforcement agencies always think before you act don't attract problems to your unborn children

This is robbery & tribalism ! Haba.

Uniform men are the real criminals, imagine breaking shops at night when the owners have left.

We need to do better as a nation. Imagine going to raid at midnight

Customs are thieves in uniform just like the democratic rogues we have at the presidency

Why protesting? They just want to ruin the Yoruba presidency 2023 chances🤔
