No Turkey for you this Christmas because customs won't let you!...think am kidding, then read this!!!!....

Conducting reporters round the seizure at the Abia/Imo command headquarters of the FOU Zone C in Owerri, the Imo State capital several hours ago, the Area Comptroller of the Zone, Mr Victor Dimka, said that two suspects have been arrested in connection with the seizures of Containers full with Turkey and would be taken to court for further prosecution.

He warned all smugglers and would-be smugglers to desist from such heinous crime as the Nigeria Customs Service are committed to ensuring that smuggling is totally eradicated in the country. 
The Area Comptroller said that the suspects were apprehended along Calabar axis as a result of the intelligent information gathered by his men who were determined to wipe out smuggling from Nigeria.

Some of the officials of the NESREA, who witnessed the destruction, advised the general public to stop consuming foreign frozen foods because the preservation chemicals were dangerous to human health.
