NDLEA Nabs Thailand Returnee With N3.1bn Heroin At Lagos Airport
The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport Ikeja, Lagos has arrested a Thalland returnee, Oguejiofor Nnaemeka Simonpeter for importing 13.30 kilograms of heroin worth over N3.192billion.
The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport Ikeja, Lagos has arrested a Thailand returnee, Oguejiofor Nnaemeka Simonpeter for importing 13.30 kilograms of heroin worth over N3.192billion.
This is as a result of a fresh wave of interdiction operations targeting transnational drug cartels across the country and beyond by the anti-narcotics agency.
Oguejiofor was arrested on Monday October 7, 2024 while attempting to smuggle the illicit drugs concealed in six backpacks and then packed into two big suitcases out of the airport.
NDLEA's spokesperson, Femi Babafemi in a statement on Sunday said the 29-year-old graduate of Mechanical Engineering from the Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University, Uli, Anambra State, had left Thailand on October 3, on Qatar Airways flight and stopped over in Doha where he spent two days before heading to Lagos while his luggage was routed to Accra, Ghana, his original destination.
After arriving Lagos on October 5, NDLEA narrated that the suspect contacted the airline to reroute his luggage to Nigeria so that he can pick them up as rush bags in a bit to beat security checks.
"However, NDLEA officers intercepted him at the point of exit. A search of his two suitcases revealed three empty backpacks in each box with a large parcel of heroin neatly sewn to all the six backpacks. The six parcels were subsequently recovered with a gross weight of 13.30kg," Babafemi revealed.
In his statement, Oguejiofor claimed he was hired for a fee of $7,000 upon successful delivery of the parcels.
He said he was to deliver two parcels in Lagos and the other four parcels in Accra, Ghana.
Similarly, operatives of the NDLEA at three seaports intercepted large consignments of opioids with a combined monetary value of N22,740,958,000.

Una go Dey spoil Una name for 7k usd

The real owner this parcel I can tell you for a fact it’s not an ibo man but they will send you and you will foolishly collect and get caught


Please before you attack me not that I’m talking from 2 past articles posted here when NDLEA finally concluded the matter but already the name of ibo have been smeared

The first article 2017 was owned by a Saudi Arabia based Yoruba man

2020 a Lebanese owned parcel with ibo man as couriers


If you can read and you insult me I go straight and insult your prophet not you

People with understanding know the point I’m trying to make and that does not change the fact that ibos do drugs

But I can tell you from those 2 sceneries that many of these news are actually not ibo owned but greed makes it so

Because na who then catch kpichikim be thief

He doesn't know the value of what he was moving I believe. Also that's probably not the total sum he was entitled to.
Anyway, Have you tried to convert 7k usd into naira?

On the contrary he isn't a fool. He's a 29 year old Mechanical Engineering graduate probably looking for a way to fund his Masters degree.

There is no way he could have evaluated the weight or cost of the consignment.
7k usd is above 11 million naira Just so you know.
How long will you work legitimately to raise 11 million if you aren't born with a silver spoon?

See bro

I am the number one arch enemy of helinues on this platform

But helinues have posted a single trade he made 1700x from

If you put 400k in that trade at early stage you would have gotten more than 7k dollars


To carry a consignment worth billions for 7k is pure stupidity no matter the age

You are some how right, most at times, a different set of people do the packaging, different set of people hunt for the carrier etc, so the carrier who is absolutely not a novice AST to the relative value of drugs, may not know the actual value but he)she definitely know that he/she is carrying something running into 100s of millions of not billions. Secondly, the carrier mainly focus on what he stands to gain not what the boss stands to gain, that being said, $7k is about ₦11m now, so if the carriers base is Naija or is not long that he left Naija, there is 80% possibility that millions of naira still sounds big to him.

An enlightened person

God bless you

Reason am na

Drug business is not drop shipping business, you have to be in the game enough to know estimate of what you are moving even if not 100 percent accurate but at least for you to be a courier you have seen others who are killed , arrested and those who succceded

Accepting 7k for billion market is foolishness

Its funny I have no arch enemy because I see the Internet as a place to express and understand the society. I guess people take the Internet seriously grin

The dude isn't stupid. He just made the right choices at the wrong time. Hopefully he gets out and become a better person.

I don't know how the trade system works but I am certain it's no substance for poor people. It's a trade with people with strong connect and access to information. I suppose that was why he knew exactly when to reroute the luggage.
The big question is if the guy knew the worth of what he was moving

Do you know that you yourself can move drugs legally

They said heroine right ? Even cocaine but that is not the line for me and you and there are bodies you register with not for abuse consumption but for medical purposes

Example is orange drugs

That 7k he could have made it legally if becoming a quack drug vendor was his profession in life

It will only take him time to learn it legally
