Money Remittance
Authorities of the National
Drug Law Enforcement
Agency (NDLEA) have
blocked €325,640 Euros and
another $30,000 (around 170
million naira) carried into
the nation from Greece and
Austria.
The cash believed to have
been laundered was full
inside envelopes and shoes.
Agents grabbed the cash at
the Murtala Muhammed
International Airport (MMIA)
Lagos amid the internal
screening of travelers on a
Turkish carrier flight.
Two suspects have been
captured regarding the
smuggled currencies, as per
the NDLEA leader at the
Lagos air terminal, Ahmadu
Garba.
The suspects, Edos Nicholas
and Hallowell Prince Lovely,
both Edo indigenes
guaranteed that the cash was
given to them by a few
people to hand over to their
Nigeria-based relations.
NDLEA Head of Public
Affairs, Ofoyeju Mitchell, in
an announcement cited the
airplane terminal officer as
unveiling that the cash was
found during routine search
of travelers.
Director/Chief Executive of
the NDLEA Col. Muhammad
Mustapha Abdallah (retd)
coordinated the Director of
Assets and Financial
Investigation of the Agency,
Mrs Victoria Egbase to
assume control over the
investigation.
In the interim, a Federal
High Court sitting in Ado-
Ekiti on Thursday remanded
an ex-convict, Tope
Adedayo,in prison for
storming NDLEA office and
demanding to kill two
officials of the agency. ![]() |
