The Comptroller-General of the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS), Adewale Adeniyi, has emphasized the need for stronger collaboration among security agencies to combat smuggling and its economic impact.
Speaking at a lecture for Course 33 participants at the National Defence College (NDC), Abuja, Adeniyi highlighted the complexities of smuggling and the necessity of inter-agency synergy to address the issue effectively.
