1 480 cartridges of live ammunition concealed in 15 bags of rice were seized from smugglers along the Abeokuta-Igboora bush path.
Controller of the Ogun State Command of the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) Comptroller Haruna Mamudu said the smugglers were ambushed and intercepted along the bush path following a tip-off.
Mamudu said although no arrest was made as the smugglers fled in to the bush, their ammunition was confiscated and would be handed over to the police.
