Reacting to the seizure, the Acting Customs Comptroller in charge of the FOU, Hussein Ejibunu, called on all patriotic citizens to provide useful and timely information that would help in combating smuggling.
The customs chief, who described smuggling as the mother of all crimes, also sought the collaboration of the people to tackle the menace to the barest minimum.

“Information is key and germane towards the fight against this cankerworm called smuggling.”
