Nigerians and drugs nowadays, it seems to be the most lucrative illegal business, the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, says it has arrested a 39-year-old man, who imported 7.45kg of cocaine valued at N82 million.
Mr. Mitchell Ofoyeju, the agency’s spokesman, who made this known in a statement yesterday, said that the suspect was intercepted at the Nnamdi Azikwe International Airport, Abuja.
Ofoyeju said the discovery was made on October 12 “during inward screening of passengers on-board an Ethiopian Airline flight from Brazil.
“The drug, which was industrially concealed inside food flasks and kitchen utensils, tested positive to cocaine and weighed 7.45kg.“It is estimated to cost N82 million. It is the single largest seizure recorded at the Abuja Airport since January.’’
Truth is may God help us stay away from illegal businesses.
