Some officers of the Nigeria Customs Service, NCS, turned down a bribe of $150, 000 from hardened smugglers in order to stop the smuggling of $6 million fake dollar notes intercepted at the Seme border out of the country.<\/p>\n

Recall that on January 31, 2023, Seme Border Command Customs officers intercepted $6 million in counterfeit currency bills at the Gbaji Customs checkpoint in Lagos. They also seized the international passports of the axis’s counterfeit currency syndicate.<\/p>\n

Comptroller Dera Nnadi, the Command’s Customs Area Controller, revealed this to journalists at the Seme Border Command during a press briefing on Thursday.<\/p>\n

He also confirmed that the arrest occurred at the Gbaji checkpoint.<\/p>\n

According to him, the smugglers offered the customs officers a bribe of $150,000.00 in genuine dollar notes via the team’s leader, Musa Istifanus Datsok, in exchange for allowing them to take the fake currency out of the country.<\/p>\n

But he said the bribe was rejected by the officers.<\/p>\n

Nnadi said the seizure was disturbing and dangerous, especially given the fact that the general election is around the corner.<\/p>\n

He said that four suspects were arrested in connection with the seizures.<\/p>\n

He added that on the same day, at about 0530 hours, officers on patrol along Gbetrome base intercepted six Maltese International Passports, all carrying picture of a lady, but with different names.<\/p>\n

He added that two Senegalese International Passports, three Togolese International Passports four Republic of Benin International Passports, one Republic of Niger International Passport and 10 International Driving License of various countries have also been seized from two male suspects<\/a> who are in custody pending further investigation.<\/p>\n

He listed other items seized by the Command to include 1,300 by 30 liters jerry can of PMS equivalent 39,000 liters roughly over one fuel tanker of PMS with duty paid value of N9, 366.45 million only.<\/p>\n

Other items seized include 55 sacks containing 550 pieces of donkey skin with duty paid value of N11.371.511.<\/p>\n

\u201cSome of these currencies bear the same serial number, and besides that, it will be very difficult for you to identify them as fake.<\/p>\n

\u201cSimilar to this, we also arrested just few hours after this, two other passengers in a different vehicle, while searching them, we discovered some international passports that belong to Malta Republic.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll the six passports we got bear the same photographs of the same person, but with different names.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe passport belongs to the republic of Malta, but bears the photograph of someone who appears to be an European and bearing different names for all the six passports.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe same lady also has six international driver\u2019s licenses bearing her photograph with six different names which shows that we are dealing with a very serious syndicate that moves across the borders,\u201d Compt Nnadi.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe suspect that it is a syndicate that is involved in cross border criminality. We also know that the election is around the corner and with this development, it is a dangerous trend.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor the currency we have two suspects and for the international passports we also have two suspects\u201d<\/p>\n

Also speaking on the seizure, the Controller, Seme Command of Nigeria Immigration Service, Dr M.C Dike said the passport must be related to an international criminal syndicate.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is possible for you to have a dual nationality, but from his explanation, it is clear that the suspects are international syndicates indulged in criminal behaviours.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe seizure and the amount of money that have being seized marvel me. We are talking about billions of naira. These are criminals moving across the borders and this is the implication for us\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
