A Nigerian based in South Africa, Ozoh Chukwuemeka, has been arrested by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency for trafficking N50m worth of cocaine.

The 45-year-old barber was apprehended at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport Lagos with 6.100kg of the substance.

The drug was detected during the outward clearance of Arik Air passengers to South Africa.

NDLEA Airport commander, Mr Hamza Umar, said the discovery was made at the baggage checking desk at the departure hall.

He said, “The drug which was neatly hidden in a false compartment of Ozoh’s luggage was discovered during routine check on passengers.”

Ozoh, a father of one, insisted on his innocence. He claimed he was made to believe the bag contained chemicals.

He said, “A friend of mine in South Africa requested that I bring a bag containing chemicals from Nigeria to South Africa for $3,000. I asked him if it was drug but he said it was just chemicals. He paid for my return ticket.

“I am only struggling to take care of myself with my barbing business. If I had known that things will turn out this way I would have rejected the proposal.”

NDLEA Chairman, Ahmadu Giade, said Ozoh’s explanation was unacceptable. “At 45 years, he should have known better. In any case, ignorance is not an excuse and he will soon be arraigned under the NDLEA Act as soon as investigation is concluded,” he added.

No matter what happens, no matter the name there, no matter the crime commited, PROUDLY IGBO.

I have said it before and i will keep saying it, Cocaine is used in drug production, we all take it but in appropriate quantities. Many government officials carry cocaines daily. Until they stop it, they cant stop the citizens from doing theirs.

inyamuri dodon naira

And here we go again

As usual! Some ppu will never stop looking for easy money.

This guy's a sleezebag, Someone gave you N500k to transport a bag to ZA (HQ of the Biafran drug cartels), and you expect anybody to believe you didn't know it was drugs? I think its easier for you to just plead guilty and get a lighter sentence jare.

Thank God for his life that he did'nt venture is ignorance and stupidity to Malaysia,Indonesia,Singapore et al this time.

My people see the effect of greed.To me,this nigga wont be a first time carrier,N50mil worth of "powder" to SA...lailai...he would have been doing it gradually and decided to go for a mega break.Its citizen like him that makes those uncircumcised saffers cry blood at Nigerians at any given chance.NDLEA,biko, hol am for Kirikiri maximum, you hear.

Nna menn!

$3000 for transporting 6.1kg of chemicals and even paid your flight ticket and you are saying you didn't know it was cocaine or something bad. Why didn't he use DHL, at least i shipped goods worth about 20kg from Asia for less than $200.
I thought they say the three (3) wise men are from the east? I begin to wonder if the east is not based on the writers position at that time.
Greediness.

Yes yes yes, the drugs have being seized, KUDOS!
Now, WHERE DO THE DRUGS GO?

Valto: nawa ooo all this stress just for $3000
