Nigerian drug lord Anthony Chinedu is suspected to have sneaked back into the country on Tuesday using a fake name.

Mr Chinedu is said to have returned through Namanga on the Kenya/Tanzania border using the name of Anaeke Chimenze[color=#990000][/color], another drug lord who was expelled with him last month.

This prompted police to launch a manhunt for him in Nairobi where he reportedly owns houses and businesses acquired with contraband money and enjoys protection from rogue security officers.


However, Internal security principal secretary Mutea Iringo dismissed this, saying, Mr Chimenze was a different drug lord kicked out alongside Mr Chinedu and eight others last month.

“There is a serious manhunt for the Nigerian, who is still at large, but we will do everything to ensure that nobody jeopardises the war on drugs,” Mr Iringo said.

This emerged as an immigration officer was charged with assisting Mr Chimenze to enter the country illegally.

The court denied Mr Edward Kabiu Njau bail and ordered him to stay in police custody pending completion of investigation.

“Although the offence is bail-able, in light of inconclusive investigations, I grant the police three days to conclude and order the accused remanded at the Kileleshwa Police Station till Monday,”

Mr Njau faced one count of allowing a “prohibited immigrant entry into Kenya”. He asked the court to release him on grounds that he was asthmatic and needed medication.

Prosecutor Brigit Kanyahi said the suspect had not tabled any documents to prove his claims and that he could interfere with investigations, if released.

The court heard he unlawfully allowed Mr Chimenze, a Nigerian holding passport number 02743350 into the country through the Namanga border point within Kajiado County. The offence was allegedly committed on July 9 between 3.45pm and 4.30pm.

Security agents were reportedly still tracking the suspect by press time. Mr Njau was arrested at his workstation in Kajiado and driven to court. He has since been interdicted for gross misconduct.

Police sources said the fugitive is suspected to be hiding in Nairobi where he has an elaborate network of accomplices he had recruited into the drug business.

My take,he won't be deported aboard a private jet again, cz no company will want to hire out their plane to be detained.
The Nigerian goverment should this time send their own plane to pick him if he gets arrested.

This is FAKE news

We already have enuf problems in nigeria, Chinedu u can remain in kenya. we don't want to declare an SOE or drug war in Nigeria.
