Police say they have arrested a 28-year-old Nigerian carrying a half
million dollars' worth of cocaine stashed in speakers that he carried from Sao Paolo, in Brazil, to the northern Nigerian city of Kano.
Commandant Ambrose Umoru said
Maduagwu Nnaemeka was arrested at Kano International Airport on Wednesday with 3kg of pure cocaine with a street value of 81 million naira.
Nnaemeka told reporters at a news
conference Wednesday that he was given the speakers at Sao Paolo airport by a Nigerian stranger who begged him to carry them to Kano. He said he knew nothing about the cocaine they carried.
The UN Office on Drugs and Crimes
estimates between 25 and 66%of cocaine bound for Europe from South America passes through West Africa.
Hehe this nigerians are bent on spoiling this country image, sef.
