Customs Seizes E-Money’s 10 Luxury Vehicles Over Underpaid N6m Import Duty

The Federal Operations Unit, FOU, Zone A, Nigeria Customs Service, has impounded 10 luxury vehicles belonging to Emeka Okonkwo, known otherwise as E-Money, over underpayment of duty on the vehicles.

The vehicles, said to have been cleared by officers of Apapa Customs Command in Lagos, were intercepted by officials of FOU, following a tip-off about the value of duty paid on them.

The seizure was confirmed by the FOU member, explaining that E-Money had visited the Unit to try and take back custody of the vehicles, but that FOU leadership had insisted on complete payment of duty before the vehicles can be released to him.

It was gathered that E-Money, who is singer KCee’s brother, eventually paid over N6 million duty before the vehicles were released to him. This was confirmed by the Customs Area Controller, CAC, Garba Mohammed, who said: “We have released the vehicles to him. He came and paid over N6 million. I think about N6.7 million or thereabouts.”
