Reactions trail Customs move to distribute edibles
Meanwhile, TheTalk.NG previously reported that Nigerians had reacted to Customs move to distribute seized food items.
According to them, the planned distribution would not go around and might be hijacked by a few influential individuals in the country.
They pointed to the COVID-19 era, where relief materials were stored in warehouses across the country and either wasted or were looted by a few people.
The development follows various interceptions of food items by the Nigeria Customs Service heading to neighbouring.
