Ali Wakili, says the ban on importation of vehicles through land borders can engender rise in transnational crime.
Wakili at the News Agency of Nigeria Forum in Abuja said that increased crime could be recorded because adequate measures were not put in place for the implementation of the ban.
According to him, though the policy is good, the timing is bad in view of the fact that the alternatives available are not adequate.
The former Controller of Customs said that the ban had started inflicting hardship on border communities’ residents, who rely mainly on border trade for livelihood.
“The timing is bad in view of the present hardship in the country.
