Man Caught In Bid To Smuggle ‘weed’ To China by Darcwudz(m): 1:14pm On Jul 30, 2014 |
A 39 -year-old motorcycle parts dealer, Ogbodo Chibuzor David, has been arrested by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) for trying to smuggle 11.06kg of dried weeds that tested positive for cannabis to China. The suspect, who concealed the drugs in various food items, was arrested following the discovery of cannabis concealed inside his luggage at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos. The Lagos Airport Commander of NDLEA, Mr. Hamza Umar, said the suspect was to board a Qatar Airline flight when he was detected. He said, “We have apprehended one Ogbodo Chibuzor David with dried weeds that tested positive for cannabis. “The suspect who deals in motorcycle parts at Nnewi was found with 21 parcels of cannabis hidden inside his bags on his way to China. His travel route as contained in his ticket is Lagos to Doha and from Doha to Guangzhou”. Confessing to the crime, Mr. David told investigators that he wanted to sell the drugs and use the profit to buy motorcycle parts in China. His words: “I gave a business partner the sum of 30,000 dollars to supply me goods and he disappeared. That brought my business to its knees and I have been struggling to take care of my wife and child since a year ago. “I met many people for financial assistance but nobody was willing to help until I was wrongly advised. A friend told me to smuggle cannabis to China”. |
