Not everyone on Nairaland must contribute or post something about a topic. You are one of them. Just take a look at the trash you have written. It doesn't make any sense. Next time, just read the news, drink water, and go back to sleep.

IKORODU, LAGOS STATE – In a major boost to Nigeria’s anti-smuggling operations, the Maritime Component of Operation AWATSE, under the command of Commodore Paul Ponfa Nimmyel, has successfully intercepted 1,306 bags of smuggled foreign parboiled rice in the Majidun Community of Ikorodu West Local Government Area, Lagos State.

This landmark operation was carried out by officers of the Nigerian Navy Ship (NNS) BEECROFT on Saturday, April 12, during a routine anti-smuggling and maritime security patrol within their designated Area of Operations.

Speaking to journalists on Wednesday, Commodore Nimmyel, who also serves as the Maritime Component Commander for South-West Operation AWATSE, revealed that the contraband was seized after smugglers attempted to breach a naval checkpoint.



The naval personnel executed the operation with exceptional professionalism and tactical restraint, ensuring that no casualties were recorded during the intervention.



The 1,306 bags of foreign parboiled rice, which were concealed and transported in breach of Nigeria’s importation laws, were handed over to the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS), Western Marine Command in Apapa, for further investigation and legal action. The handover aligns with the Harmonized Standard Procedures on Arrest, Detention and Prosecution.

Operation AWATSE, a multi-agency security initiative, continues to play a pivotal role in border protection, anti-smuggling enforcement, and maritime surveillance in the South-Western region of Nigeria.

This latest seizure not only reaffirms the Nigerian Navy’s zero-tolerance stance on economic sabotage but also reinforces the Federal Government’s commitment to protecting Nigeria’s borders from illicit trade that undermines local agricultural production and national food security.

Let the inmates eat rice too

Abi them take beans and Garri swear for them

Rice should not be snuggled but those ones the government brought in since last year or 2023 are not in sight till date

Why seizing when hunger is in the land

Imagine what the navy of a country has
reduced itself to....


Foreign oil ship super tankers will come to
our coastal areas, load stolen crude oil for
2 week, navy no go know, because they are
bribed millions of dollars 💸


But here they are, intercepting rice because
dem don become Customs.

..they are seizing foreign rice but it's those that seized the foreign rice that will still eat the rice and sell some out

Cmanforall:
Let them not destroy it yet.
If the rice are edible, let them fine the smugglers

..and Tinubu buys and eats foreign rice and they are seizing foreign rice from the common man ..but do not seize the ones Tinubu buys..it's a pity

The rice should be sold to the general public at control price so far it's safe for consumption.

Is the seizure not because of 'smuggling '?

BABANGBALI:
They should chair them to members of the public

Or table them to the members of the public. Right?

SensualMan1:
This is Igbo man's sweat. Yet food is not enough in Nigeria.

However the rice will be resold to Nigerian workers or rebagged for 2027 elections specifically to the Amala munching baboons. Hungry baboons.

They will repackage it with bags that have the face of politicians and share it as renewed hope palliatives

Funny black hole of a country. Others are busy chasing after and achieving stuffs while we are here chasing after bags of foreign rice. Since they shut the boarders have we attained self sustainability in rice production? Nay. Has the naira stabilized against the dollar? Nay. What the closure has succeeded in doing is inflicting severe hardship on the people. The CFA franc people did not want to touch is now greater than our tissue paper currency.
Just tell me what these idiots have achieved since they siezed power in 2015?
