The Joint Border Patrol Team, Sector 3, in Ilorin, has seized contrabands worth 91 million naira.
The Sector Commander, Comptroller Olugbenga Peters, made this known at a news conference at the Custom House in Ilorin.
Peters said that from the records made available, only 13 petrol tankers were granted approval to load petroleum products every week to border communities, to prevent excess products being smuggled out.
He however warned that escort officers of the approved petroleum tankers loaded with petrol to the point of discharge should not be mistaken for smuggling out of the country.
He said that it was part of the strategies to avoid same products from being smuggled out or diverted.
