The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) has called on motorists to stop buying second-hand tyres, popularly known as ‘Tokunbo tyres’, in order to stem incessant cases of road crashes.

Comptroller of the Ogun 1 Area Command of the NCS, Mr James Ojo, who made the call while speaking with Newsmen yesterday in Ota, Ogun State, explained that the use of second-hand tyres was one of the factors contributing to road crashes in the state and Nigeria at large.

The comptroller advised the public to buy new tyres rather than used ones because they would last longer and be safer on the highway.
