In a statement issued by Abdullahi Abubakar, the Public Relations Officer of the command,  on Tuesday evening, March 12, it was announced that the seized food items would be returned.

 

Recall that President Tinubu ordered the Customs to give back all the seized food items at the border to their owners on the condition that the items should be sold in Nigerian markets to help increase food availability.

 

The Controller-General of Customs, Adewale Adeniyi, said Tinubu made the decision to use his authority, not based on legal guidelines, “but rather reflecting the deep sense of generosity he holds towards Nigeria.”
