Drug Bust: Nigerian arrested with high-quality cocaine during raid in India by Peterobiisathie(op): 7:50am On Sep 13, 2025
The Nigerian national and Ivory Coast native were arrested on September 10 during a raid at a residence in Chattarpur, South Delhi, based on a tip-off, the Delhi Police said.

The Delhi Police arrested two African nationals on Wednesday and recovered 355 grams of high-quality cocaine, valued at around Rs 70 lakh in the international market.

The police have identified the accused as Benjamin Izuchukwu, 43, a Nigerian national, and Coulibaly Mariam, 29, of Ivory Coast. The arrests were made on September 10 during a raid at a residence in Chattarpur, South Delhi, based on a tip-off about their involvement in cocaine distribution.

The police subsequently conducted the raid and seized the contraband along with an electronic weighing machine and packaging materials. A case has been registered at Mehrauli police station under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act (NDPS) Act.

“During interrogation, accused Izuchukwu disclosed that he came in contact with another African national residing in Dwarka in 2021. He used to procure cocaine from one Joseph at Rs 8,000 per gram and sell it in Chattarpur and surrounding areas at Rs 10,000 per gram with the help of his associate, Coulibaly Mariam. Izuchukwu revealed that he had recently purchased 600 grams of cocaine, out of which approximately 250 grams had already been sold. The remaining 355 grams were seized during the raid,” said Ankit Chauhan, Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP), South.

Whilst I see your sentiment, I don't think this is true in majority off these cases, these guys are small fry and have probably overstayed their visa so can't travel anyway.

They probably don't make enough money to feed themselves properly never mind sending money home to buy this or that in preparation for December, it is their handlers that make the money. The ones that know people at the Indian High commission to get them Visa's.

It is time the federal government did something about those handlers.

Did you notice the article said 'Nigerian' and didn't mention any ethnic groups? Outside Nigeria, nobody gives a fvck about your ethnic group. You're a Nigerian first, before any ethnicity and you'll be treated as such. Condemn the crime, not the ethnic group.

Re: Drug Bust: Nigerian arrested with high-quality cocaine during raid in India by rinzaugustine:
The people that tell some people they care not Igbos are usually the first to come and show their hate whenever they hear an Igbo sounding name not minding whether they are from Enugu state or Rivers state. The hate is the same similar to 1967 when federal troops arrived Asaba. The people of Anioma rushed to embrace them telling them they were not igbos but Ibrahim Taiwo rounded up all the young men and wiped them out in a genocidal execution style

Whilst I see your sentiment, I don't think this is true in majority off these cases, these guys are small fry and have probably overstayed their visa so can't travel anyway.

This kind of news is exactly why Nigerians face unfair profiling abroad. People like Izuchukwu keep dragging the country’s name in the mud for quick money, ignoring how it affects millions of law-abiding citizens.

Every time incidents like this make headlines, it reinforces negative stereotypes about Nigerians worldwide, making travel, business, and even ordinary interactions more difficult for innocent people.

We need to condemn this openly and push for stronger action against such criminals , both abroad and at home , so their greed doesn’t keep ruining Nigeria’s image for everyone else.
