Stupidity of the highest order! See how this 30-year-old lady concealed cocaine into Nigeria (Photos)
A Brazil-based Nigerian hairstylist, Nnaji Juliet Ijeoma, was today, arrested at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA), Lagos, by officials of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA).
The 30-year-old suspect was discovered to have concealed cocaine in her bra during the inward screening of South African Airways.
It was gathered that if she had succeeded in smuggling the drug into Nigeria, she stood to reap the sum of N1 million from her sponsors.
Mitchell Ofoyeju, spokesman of NDLEA, said the suspect had attempted to bring in the drug into the country from Brazil. She disclosed that the white powdery substance tested positive for cocaine with a gross weight of 535 grams.
Ofoyeju assured Nigerians of the agency’s commitment towards curbing drug trafficking in the country.
