Customs declares containers missing at Fano bonded terminal

The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) over the weekend said two import containers cleared from the Lagos Port Complex Apapa and transported to Fano bonded terminal in the Amuwo-Odofin area of Lagos are missing.

Head of the NCS Federal Operations Unit, Zone A, Lagos, Hussein Ejibunu, confirmed that the containers arrived at the Fano bonded terminal before they suddenly grew wings.

“How the two containers disappeared from the bonded terminal is what we are still investigating. The two containers’ whereabouts are yet unknown as we speak and we are on top of the situation.

The OC of the bonded terminal has confirmed to us that the containers got to the terminal. He however does not know how the containers left the off-dock terminal,” he said.
