In the early hours of Thursday, a Nigerian soldier reportedly shot a Customs officer to death at Seme border in Lagos State.
According to an eyewitness who declared anonymity, the incident aroused tension in the area over the fear of a clash between soldiers and customs officers at the border.
The eyewitness said: “It’s possible that the soldier was under the influence of alcohol because no one expected him to behave in such a strange manner”.
Seme border is a settlement in Nigeria on the border with the Republic of Benin, thirty minutes drive from Badagry on the coastal road between Lagos and Cotonou. Seme is a part of the Badagry Division of Lagos State.
