Operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) have arrested a suspected cocaine trafficker, Ukaegbu Bright Onyekachi, at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA) in Lagos.
The suspect, who arrived in Nigeria on board Ethiopian Airlines from São Paulo, Brazil via Addis Ababa, was nabbed with 3.30 kilogrammes of the illicit drug during the inward clearance of passengers on Ethiopian Airlines at the E arrival hall of the MMIA.
NDLEA commander at MMIA, Ahmadu Garba, said the drug was concealed in T-shirt stickers.
He said, “The hard drug was cleverly concealed in T-shirt stickers but he was nabbed by eagle-eyed detectives.”
