Men of the Nigeria Customs Service have impounded about 13 bullet proof vehicles smuggled.

The Nigeria Customs Service on Tuesday said it has impounded exotic vehicles which were imported into the country without payment of duties on them, according to The Punch.

The Comptroller-General of Customs Col Hameed Alli (Rtd) revealed this while addressing journalists in Abuja on the seizure of the vehicles.

He said the 18 suspected smuggled vehicles were seized from a car dealer in Abuja named Kefiano Motors Ltd.

He gave a breakdown of the 18 vehicles as two Range Rovers, one Rolls Royce, four Lexus, three G-Wagon, two Prado, one Lincoln Navigator, one Infinity, one 4matic, two Toyota Sequoia and one Toyota Camry.
