Nigerian Detained At Beijing Airport With 87kg Of Marijuana

For most of you here who don't understand the way this works let me educate you. First of all, it is immediately observed that it is almost impossible to attempt to carry this much drug in to an airport without been noticed, especially an international airport in China of all places. So this means, either this guy was dumb or maybe has a family back home that is been held hostages or like you said convinced by his with doctor that this was a possible feat.
When neither of the latter are true, then that leaves only one more option, called the shuffle. This is a trick used by many organised crime family, gang and corrupt police and political figures and this is how it goes. You find some one easily disposable (preferably low IQ) to act as a "mule" or trafficker between your supplier e.g the Marijuana drug cartels in Eshan (where they openly grow weed in large fields in full view of everbody) and the demand the triads or other Chinese family. The mule is set up to be busted (arrested) at the airport at which point the police or related anti drug agency would intervene and confiscate the drugs. The receiving cartel who have people working for them at airport, police and agency are then notified of the arrival of the merchandise. The swap is made for dummy drugs keeping just a few real brick for evidence in court and press. After the court case the man is found guilty, and executed, the drugs (dummy) are ordered destroyed by fire or dissolved in a solvent. In some instance even the few authentic bricks that were left for evidence are picked up. So this poor hapless fella never stood a chance right from when he signe up for this. He ironically enough, is probably the victim. Trust me, those drugs will arrive at their anticipated destination. What cop want to go against the chinese crime familys?? The supplier and the customer are celebrating to another sucessfull transaction as we speak. Dont ask me how I know this. I plead the fifth

The one I want to know is
How did he get those into the aircraft enroute China ?
87 kg?
that's more than the weight of an average man.

Hey CHINA of all nations in the world.

Dem don swear for the guy.

And for real, do we have custom officers in Nigeria?

Exactly - IF he travelled from Nigeria. Nothing in the story states where the man was coming from, except that we know he is a Nigerian citizen.

I doubt if they would openly let 3 suitcases of Igbo pass by. Customs officials regularly open ALL suitcases at the airport before departure. I suspect that maybe one of the cabin crew or some shady officials were bribed to allow the suitcases on without screening.

I am so sure what possibly could have led to his arrest easily was the excess weight of those marijuana. If it had been within the specified kilos of luggage required by the Chinese airport authority, I am sure, the guy would be smiling to the banks right now.

He is a drug mule. . . . . .How much would he get??
The twat at Virgin Nigeria that got arrested was promised $4,000. . . . .Can u beat that??
Mules are paid shit money. . . .

I assume he must have paid for extra luggages. What I still do not get is that he arrived in Beijing, checked his luggage into the airport storage and was arrested the next day when he came to pick it up.

How was it not detected through the checking-in and not until he came back to pick up his luggage? If the case is truly so, China needs to step up their airport security checks.

You sound as though u've neither traveled out nor read the story. Once the luggage is checked in in Nigeria, he'll only collect it when hulled out at the destination. According to the story, he abandoned the luggage and returned the next day to pick, that was when he was nabbed.


Please let's all Observe 1 minute silence for the guy and wish his Soul an internal Rest.

the man is igbo.
