NDLEA intercepts drugs concealed in body cream
The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency has intercepted several consignments of illicit drugs at courier companies and airports across Nigeria.
The spokesperson for the NDLEA, Femi Babafemi, disclosed this in a statement made available to journalists on Sunday.
The spokesman stated that the agency made two more seizures at another courier company in Lagos: 112grams of Dimethyl Sulfone concealed in the hollow of a motor driving shaft going to New Zealand, and 583 grams of Cocaine and phenacetin packed into a bottle of body cream heading to Saudi Arabia.
“While the Dimethyl Sulfone was concealed in the hollow of a motor driving shaft going to New Zealand, the consignment of Cocaine and phenacetin was packed into a bottle of body cream heading to Saudi Arabia,” he said.
Recall that the operatives arrested 40-year-old Sherif Egbo at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja while attempting to board an Air France flight to Paris, France. Egbo, based in Madrid, Spain, had ingested 93 pellets of heroin weighing 2.222Kg.
