National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has arrested a businessman identified as an ‘I Just Got Back’ returnee for attempting to smuggle illicit drugs into the country.
This was announced in a statement by the agency’s Director of Media and Advocacy Femi Babafemi, shared videos of the seized contraband on X.com on Sunday.
The suspect, who had just returned from a foreign trip, initially raised suspicion due to his nervous demeanour.
NDLEA officials subjected him to a routine screening, during which wraps of illicit drugs began to fall from his body.
The statement said: “Narco-trend update: The moment #ndlea_nigeria officers intercepted an ‘I Just Got Back’ businessman, screened him, and wraps of cocaine began to ‘rain’ from his body. Who will tell them that NDLEA will always get them no matter the mode of concealment?”
