This was disclosed in a statement by the Area Comptroller, Salisu Abdullahi during a press briefing held on November 17, 2023 at the headquarters of the Area Command in Yola, and posted on the official X handle of the NCS on Tuesday.
Other seized items include 19 cartons of foreign insecticide and 26 bags of 50kg foreign parboiled rice.
