The Federal Government of Nigeria has prohibited the importation of vehicles into the nation through land borders.

The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) Public Relations Officer, Wale Adeniyi, in a statement issued on Monday stated that “the prohibition order covers all new and used vehicles”.

He also said the ban was sequel to a presidential directive restricting all vehicle imports to Nigeria’s Sea ports only, adding that the order takes effect from January 1, 2017.

“The restriction on importation of vehicles follows that of rice; import of rice through land borders has been banned since April 2016. Importers of vehicles through the land borders are requested to utilise the grace period until December 31, 2016 to clear their vehicle imports landed in neighbouring Ports,” Adeniyi said.
