“The order takes effect from Jan. 1, 2017.

“ The restriction on importation of vehicles follows that of rice, whose imports have been banned through the land borders since April 2016.

“ Importers of vehicles through the land borders are requested to utilise the grace period up till Dec. 31, 2016 to clear their vehicle imports landed in neighbouring ports, ’’ the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) quotes the statement as saying.
