Shock as 32 year-old lady excretes wraps of cocaine on-board aircraft



Wonders they say shall never end, especially in Nigeria.
A 32-year-old single lady, Chizoba Vivian Anya, is currently being quizzed by officials of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) for allegedly excreting wraps of substance which tested positive for methamphetamine, on-board a Qatar Airline flight from Malaysia.
The suspect was said to have aroused suspicion from other passengers on-board the flight following her frequent visits to the toilet. On arrival at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport (MMIA) Lagos, three wraps of methamphetamine were found in her possession.

“I was promised the sum of half a million naira but my problem started when I had immigration problem in Malaysia. I was denied entry and made to return to Nigeria after two days. While in the aircraft, I excreted three wraps and two other wraps in the NDLEA office,” Vivian stated.

I wanted to use the money they promised me to assist my siblings by smuggling the drug to Malaysia.”
Chairman/Chief Executive of the NDLEA, Ahmadu Giade, in his reaction, warned against the get-rich-quick syndrome.
“Drug traffickers must avoid the get-rich-quick syndrome and understand that a good name is better than ill-gotten wealth that comes without peace of mind,” Giade stated.
