Officials of the Nigeria Customs Service attached to Tin Can Island Command have on Friday confirmed the interception of a 1x40ft container carrying guns and other deadly weapons.

Reports have discovered that the container owner had allegedly declared its content as plasma televisions, but the customs officers discovered it was a carton of guns.

Mr Uche Ejesieme, the Public Relations Officer of the Tin Can Customs, confirmed the incident.

“The officers intercepted a container loaded with weapons, but as we speak, what we have done as a command is that we have written to the terminal to evacuate the container immediately to enforcement unit for 100 per cent examination so that we can actually ascertain the quantity and other relevant information.

“So, as we speak, we expect the terminal to evacuate the container to the enforcement unit where we intend to strip it, and the quantity, names of people involved, and other further information would be available,” he said.

He added that, in line with service protocol, the command would inform the Customs high command in Abuja after the container had been thoroughly examined at the enforcement unit of the command.

“This is why we have not issued an official statement regarding the seizure.

“As we speak, we do not have full details of who is behind the import, country of import and the model of guns.

“All these will be made known at the end of investigations,” he added.

The customs, however, vowed to thoroughly look into the matter to its very roots and apprehend those in connection.

“Most times, the suspect you see is those freight forwarders and agents coming for examination, but we are more interested in getting to the importer and everyone involved in that criminal importation to nip it in the bud,” he assured.
