Sounds like an international ivory smuggling syndicate is using Lagos as a based of operation. I don'the think they got all those tusks here in Nigeria. What's our elephant population theses days though?
Probably from chad and around there, the area is a hotspot

Hmmmmn...


Punish him according to the LAW and not according to HIS WHITE SKIN!

angry

He should face the full brunt of the law with all the media attention the case can get, shey?

That would never happen. Trust your corrupt Nigerians to set him free secretly after some major bribery runz due to his "white-skin" and loaded dollar account.

Yet, the same Asians mete out the maximum punishment of Death Sentences for every little thing to Nigerians in their own countries.

The man just did not settle well.

Elephant tusk biz is a very lucrative biz somewhere in the east. They have a line in dt place where it is sold. Majority of the ppl in dt line hail from a particular local govt in the east. They have a strong association .Ppl in dt line have built mansions with the proceeds. Buyers from Lagos use it to manufacture jewelries.

It is mainly imported from Cameroun and measured in kg.it is a cash and carry business. You pay cash , wait for a week or two b4 your goods are sent from.cameroun or u buy from the retailers.

Of a truth, some ppl in dt trade dont know it is contraband. I would have been in a patnership with a guy in dt line b4 i was alerted by a friend that it is contraband.
