A 22 year old Nigerian who lives in Thailand was nabbed by men of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA for carrying 1.295kg substance discovered to be methamphetamine.

The young man whose name is Jude Ejikonye Ilechukwu, was arrested at the international wing of the Murtala Mohammed International Airport, Lagos, while he was attempting to pass the passenger screening on Ethiopian Airline at the airport.

According to the MMIA  Commander of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, Hamza Umar, the drugs were hidden in the suspect's luggage.

Umar said: “Like several factory modes of drug concealment, we had to practically cut the bag open to detect the drugs. Ordinarily, when you open the bag, you will not see the drug. We found two brown parcels of drugs weighing 1.295kg.”

Ilechukwu confessing on the matter had this to say: “I am a business man. I relocated to Thailand last year where I buy goods and send to Nigeria. “It was in Thailand that I met a man who introduced me into drug business. He gave my number to his partner in Lagos who lodged me in a hotel. “They made me to contribute N750,000 as my contribution and promised me a handsome reward on arrival in Thailand. “My focus was on the profit that will accrue to me. It was when I was arrested that I realized I had made a big mistake.”
