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.
I knew an ignoramus will jump on that bait no sooner or later.

1) Tell me where in the report, the guy was traveling from Nigeria?

2) I have never traveled out before. Is that satisfactory enough for you?

3) Most airports have dogs that sniff luggages. If you are oblivious to this, go and get upgraded.

4) He did not abandon his luggage. He checked it into the airport storage and came back the following day to pick it up. Do you people bother to read articles before posting?

A Nigerian man tried to smuggle nearly 200 pounds of marijuana into China in his luggage but got nervous and left the cache sitting at the airport for a day, Beijing customs officials said Wednesday.

The man flew into Beijing International Airport from the Nigerian capital of Lagos on March 2 and left the airport with just one bag packed with clothes and some cash, said a statement from the Beijing Customs Bureau.

He returned the next day to retrieve the rest of his bags, which were found to contain 72 bricks, or 190 pounds (87 kilograms), of marijuana thickly wrapped in black plastic, said the statement posted to the bureau Web site.

The bust was the bureau's biggest so far this year, it said.

The China Daily newspaper on Wednesday published a photo of the man, who was not identified by name, handcuffed in a chair as one officer gripped his shoulder and another questioned him while pointing to dozens of plastic bundles laid out on the floor.

The customs statement said the man was detained but did not say if he had been formally arrested or charged. Calls to the Nigerian Embassy in Beijing rang unanswered.

I think this report gives a bit more clearer picture to the details unlike what was obtainable with Punch newspaper. Still the identity - name of the man was not disclosed.

It is very possible, money must have exchanged hands at the Nigerian airport for this large consignment of drugs to have passed through easily.

Nigeria - **sighs**

87 Kg? it's a lie.
That cargo may not have even gone through any airports.
They just set the man up or he went to collect it and they caught him and now saying he came thru the airports
so they will have an excuse to execute him (you know china now ; as per 3rd world)
Those people bullied people and bulldozed houses willy-nilly for the olympics;even killed people.
All those olympic display na by force o!! That's by the way sha but China be like naija some how; Demonic government/police

Another negative publicity on Nigeria!!!!!


I do sense resentment and condemnation over his act of desperation. Yet it astounds me the very same/or like is perpertrated as a subculture here in 9ja as in yahoo-yahoo, kidnappers, drug-trafficker, highway robbers, etc--- (trying to get rich by hook or crook). So why blame the fellow when a dwindling minority pursue an honest living?

Truth is, faulting this to our corrupt and inefficient government system is a tired excuse and as life gets harder and harder for the poor masses these acts would be common.



What is the legal recourse for this fellow in China as a foreigner?

O su mi o!  I think say na only me sef notice, abeg tell them!  


@post, just like someone stated (and I quite agree), this guy could be mentally handicap cause no one in their right mind would think they could get away with that much drugs without being caught.  Having said that, how do we know the individual in question is a Nigerian.  Couldn't he have used a Nigerian passport with a Nigerian name to perpetrate the alleged crime.  I sense some foul play here cause the story doesn't jell at all.  Why wasn't the drugs detected when he checked it into a storage at the airport?  How and when did they (Chinese authorities) find out there were drugs in the stored suitcase?  How come they didn't apply however method they used to discover the contents of the suitcase before he had it stored at the airport's storage?  And how in the world did he made it past the Chinese customs/immigration authorities without being caught. Finally, how in the world did that many drugs (including the weight) fit in that not-so-big suitcase?  There are so many unanswered questions about  this story o jare.  Bottom line is, there's more to this story that's not being disclosed.  Peace!

If this is actually the case is it not wise we let the Igbos go so that we can re brand our Nigeria while they do their illicit trade in their country BIAFRA. We "Nigerians" must be foolish for keeping the Igbos with us when itz very clear that they tarnish our image abroad. What do u think Tha_dude

I am sure you are aware that such tribalistic comments are not really welcomed and would only cause more resentment.  We demand an apology
