The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) arrests 34-year-old Ugandan woman Farida Nansubuga at Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos as she prepares to fly to Uganda, after operatives allegedly find cocaine hidden in her underwear. Multiple outlets report the cocaine was packaged in 87 wraps and weighs 1.15 kilogrammes.

NDLEA says the arrest follows screening and a body search during an airport operation, and that Nansubuga was detained on 3 November while at Terminal 2. Several reports add that she travelled from Nigeria with a church group for a prayer programme, then allegedly remained behind to collect a consignment connected to another person.

Coverage is broadly consistent on the identity of the suspect, the location and timing of the arrest, and the quantity and concealment method of the cocaine. One outlet also includes additional NDLEA-related seizures at Lagos airports, expanding the story beyond the Ugandan woman’s arrest.
