The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) says it arrests a 41-year-old Brazil-based businessman, Abugu Oliver Ikechukwu, for allegedly importing cocaine into Nigeria. NDLEA operatives uncover the drug at Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Ikeja, Lagos, when the suspect arrives from São Paulo, Brazil. According to NDLEA’s Director of Media and Advocacy, Femi Babafemi, the cocaine is concealed in everyday items: shirts and towels. The agency says the shipment contains 6.10 kilograms of liquid cocaine. Multiple reports describe NDLEA’s seizure as “liquid cocaine” hidden in clothing materials, and they identify the same suspect and the same route—Brazil to Lagos—carrying the same stated quantity. The reports are based on NDLEA’s public statement and its account of the arrest at the airport. No information is provided in these reports about charges filed, court proceedings, or further investigation outcomes.
