The Nigerian Navy, Forward Operating Base (FOB), Ibaka, Mbo local government area have detained two suspects, impounded 70 sacks of smuggled rice, and seized two boats used in smuggling the rice.
The FOB’s Commanding Officer, Navy Capt. Muhammed Kabiru, stated this in Ibaka over the weekend while handing over the suspects and rice bags to the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS).
According to Kabiru, who was represented by the Base Operations Officer, Lt. -Cdr. Samuel Olawookere, the two suspects and 70 bags of rice were confiscated from smugglers on Thursday, April 7, during routine patrol operations by the forward operating base.

Kabiru stated that the base will not desist in its efforts to put an end to any illicit activities on the Akwa Ibom waterways.

The commanding officer warned smugglers to stay clear of the Nigerian maritime boders, stressing that officers and men of FOB Ibaka would not relent until the Akwa Ibom waterways is free from all forms of criminalities.
He advised them to stop smuggling and other illicit activities and focus on lawful endeavors to avoid getting jailed.
