Nigerian Footballer Held For Smuggling And Peddling Cocaine by EKONGKING: 8:04pm On Feb 27, 2011
NEW DELHI: The Special Cell of Delhi Police has arrested a Nigerian national for his alleged involvement in smuggling and peddling cocaine in Delhi. Police claimed to have recovered 3gm of cocaine worth Rs 1.25 lakh from his possession. The accused, identified as Ekene Okeke (26), hails from Lagos. He was apprehended at Shalimar Bagh on the night of February 23, said police.

The arrest came following investigation into an input that a few Nigerians were involved in supplying cocaine to clients, especially in hotels and discotheques. Okeke told police that he had come to deliver cocaine to a person
on the directions of his boss,
who is also a Nigerian national and is known as Prince, said a police officer.

"Prince is very cautious while communicating with his associates and clients, and does business with clients only after proper verification or with those referred by known persons from the circle of drug users," the police officer said.

Okeke is a well-known football player in Nigeria, shocked shocked shocked and has played for a reputed football club in Lagos, police said. On his first visit to India in 2008 Okeke met Prince, who lured the former to work for him. Okeke had gone back to Nigeria in that year, but the lure of making a quick buck by supplying drugs prompted him to come to India again this year.

stop that kind of thinking. We are all nigerians. Shifting blame to between tribes is a useful divide and conquer tool used to keep sending Nigeria deeper into the dirt. Don't let yourself be used as a pawn.

Seriously, they need to start forcing ppl to state their origin. . . .Yorubaland should not be held responsible for all this blacklist after the separation of the country.

I read a similar news just yest. . . .what is up with Igboman and drugs? shocked No wonder EzeUche posts seems like he posted them while he is getting high  grin
Re: Nigerian Footballer Held For Smuggling And Peddling Cocaine by EzeUche2(m): 10:29pm On Feb 27, 2011
We all know Igbos are part of this illicit trade. No biggie to me. As long as they don't sell in their own communities.

Sell it to the Hausa or the Yoruba or any other group and make a nice profit.

As the saying goes, NEVER GET HIGH ON YOUR OWN SUPPLY. grin
Re: Nigerian Footballer Held For Smuggling And Peddling Cocaine by Nobody: 10:30pm On Feb 27, 2011
If he had won an election to the Indian parliament, you will see the Biafrans here in a jiffy, extolling the unparalled abilities of ibos.

He is ibo, period.

Nobody is saying he's not Nigerian. But all these "a j'okuta ma m'omi" needa start recognizing their father's house. Like some one said, only baztards point to their father's home with their left apku finger.

What is wrong with smoking a little Igbo? It never harmed anyone! It actually helps relaxes people. That's why you have people like Bob Marley talking about its medicinal benefits.

Keep on growing them while we Igbos pay you in peanuts. And then we make a good profit selling it to others.

Nigeria may be the next Colombia. Well never mind. . . I don't want that.

Instead of Pablo Escobar, people will be talking about someone named Peter Chukwu.  Eze EGO! grin

The Indians wont execute him. This is not Singapore. He will probably get a few years in prison if that, then he will be deported back to Nigeria.

Obviously, we're selling it to you, o you ediots can sell them overseas.
Obv this thread and countless others showcases the ediocy of the Igboman to constantly sell "Igbo" oversea grin After knocking out your own ppl in the S.E.

Nigeria needs to separate before this Youth's fixation with drugs becomes as rampant in Yorubaland as it is with Enugu.
Re: Nigerian Footballer Held For Smuggling And Peddling Cocaine by Nobody: 10:44pm On Feb 27, 2011
Once again, the suspect does not hail from Lagos. . . . either he's ashamed of hailing from his father's land like so many other Igbos. . . .or he's simply ignorant of his father's land, like so many other Igbos.

Yes, you are selling it to us for little money. The profits can be made overseas. That is why you find many of our youth traveling to Asia or Europe to sell this product.

We all have our vices. Igbos have drugs, Bini people have prostitution, Yorubas have scammers, Hausa have terrorist.

We are all one big happy CORRUPT family.

He was born and raised in Lagos, so he hails from Lagos. If you have a problem with that, go jump off a cliff. Just like a Nigerian who was born and raised in Houston, he hails from Houston.

You understand that?

Look Igboman, start telling your people to learn their father's land. Stop being bastardz overseas. Is it so depressing to say "I am from Anambra"? O ma se! These drug dealers will never cease to amaze me.

What about the thousands who get away with it? I am not trying to moralize this, but many have survived to tell the tale. Come to Igboland and see the mansions of these drug peddlers.

What does this have to do with "spine?" I say it takes a lot of spine to go to another man's land and peddle such narcotics, even though there is a greater risk of being caught.

Is there a reason why a man who thinks drugdealing/rotting in Jail is a profiting business is still posting? As if we already didnt know thousands more Igbos get away with the crime. Infact, start claiming Biafran plz, it would make it easier on Nigerians.
Lemme guess, killing your wives is also the norm in Igboland?
