The Nigeria Customs Service says it has seized 15 vehicles valued at about N163 million in different parts of Kogi and Niger states.
Area Customs Command controlling the two states also said it collected about N22.6 million as revenue in November.
The Comptroller of Customs in charge of the command, Mr Busayo Kadejo, said this while addressing journalists in Minna, Niger State, on Tuesday.
He said that the command was putting measures in place to step up security at the border posts to curtail illegal trade and prevent contraband from coming into the country.
The comptroller explained that the command would also carry out a 100 per cent physical examination to prevent offensive goods from being smuggled in through the borders of the area.
