The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), has nabbed a drug trafficker, Ukaegbu Bright Onyekachi, with 3.30 kilograms of illicit drugs at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport (MMIA), Lagos.
Ukaegbu was arrested on Monday, February 1, during the inward clearance of passengers on Ethiopian Airline at the E arrival hall of the MMIA, Lagos.
The NDLEA, in a statement issued in Abuja, said the arrest of Ukaegbu is coming few days after at least three cocaine cartels were busted at the MMIA, Lagos.
The Commander, MMIA Command of the NDLEA, Mr Ahmadu Garba, disclosed that Ukaegbu arrived Nigeria aboard Ethiopian Airlines from São Paulo, Brazil via Addis Ababa.
‘The hard drug was cleverly concealed in T-shirts stickers, but he couldn’t escape the eagle eyes of our detectives,’ Garba said.
