The Federal High Court sitting in Kano has sentenced an automobile parts dealer, Okeke Chika Victor, to 10 years imprisonment over heroin smuggling. Victor pleaded not guilty to a one-count charge of unlawful importation of heroin filed against him by NDLEA.


After five months of trial, Justice Sale Kogo Idrissa found him guilty and sentenced him to 10 years imprisonment. The heroin weighing 10.6kg and concealed inside new submersible water pumping machines were illegally imported from Maputo in Mozambique in April 2016.


NDLEA officers at the Mallam Aminu Kano International Airport (MAKIA) made the discovery during an inward screening of an Ethiopian Airline flight. After follow-up operation the convict was arrested on September 3, 2016 and charged to court.

I think this offense should be made a capital punishment in nigeria, anybody caught with drugs should be executed without pardon, it will discourage the scourge.

NCAN pls investigate this case.

Most Igbos are honest, but 99% of those who sell wares and spare parts are either smugglers or thieves!

Hv noticed a biased trend whr there is a vigorous increase on articles bout apprehended igbo drug dealers the past couple of days now jus to taunt the igbos on nairaland.
for every 1 igbo drug dealer their are 1000 legit igbo men getting it, so u bigots shouldn't get it twisted.

Sir, but Okeke Chika Victor is registered as an Auto dealer, never knew he's a drug dealer.

Is it after ten months or ten years?
