NDLEA Head of Public Affairs, Mitchell Ofoyeju, in a statement, disclosed that following the agency’s increased surveillance and arrest of a prominent artiste at the Lagos Airport over alleged drug-related offences, drug traffickers have started shifting base.
He said last Sunday alone, two suspects were arrested at the Abuja Airport with a total of 4kg of a substance that tested positive to cocaine. Reiterating the Agency's preparedness to tackle drug traffickers, Ofoyeju said: “We are prepared to stop drug traffickers at the Abuja airport. All our airports are equally equipped with the 3D scanning machines. It was a wrong calculation by the two suspects to have opted for Abuja airport. This arrest will serve as a warning to other drug traffickers.”
One of the suspects was arrested while attempting to board a KLM flight to Amsterdam, while the second one was nabbed at the outward screening of passengers from Sao Paulo, Brazil... All 'real' drug traffickers, make una beware o!
