The tragic incident happened along Lagos Express way. It was gathered that they stopped a vehicle conveying a family returning from abroad and they demanded N5,000 bribe from them.

Another man was also reportedly stopped by the Customs official on his way to the Eastern part of the country and he was charged to pay almost N300,000 for a custom charge for his car which he refused and complained that it is too much.

After many arguments and out of annoyance the Custom officer mistakenly shot a member of the family returning from abroad. His colleague was also shot dead  and it was not clear whether he was responsible in the shooting of his fellow Customs officer as claimed by eyewitness.

Watch video below.
