Customs Operatives Shoot Man To Death In Lagos
Operatives of the Nigerian Customs Service (NCS ) have allegedly shot a man dead for carrying smuggled bags of rice.
It was gathered that the incident took place on Wednesday morning at Oko-Oba, Lagos.
Eyewitnesses said the operatives opened fire after they saw a bus suspected to be carrying smuggled rice.
Further details show that the man was shot in the head with Customs officers said to have riddled vehicles around the scene with bullets as they fled.
“There would have been serious riot this morning at Abule Egba but for the intervention of policemen from the Rapid Response Squad ( RRS ).
“Those Customs people have started again this year. They shot a young man on the head this morning. They were just shooting like drunkards. Blood is everywhere,” a source told The Nation.
