In a major crackdown on drug trafficking, the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) announced the interception of twelve consignments of cocaine at Akanu Ibiam International Airport, Enugu. The operation led to the arrest of a 44-year-old businessman, Augustine Justine Emeka, who had arrived from Douala, Cameroon via Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Emeka was found in possession of 797 pellets of cocaine weighing 17.6 kilograms.
During preliminary interviews, Emeka confessed that the seized cocaine was intended for delivery to 12 different individuals within the country. This successful operation is part of NDLEA’s ongoing efforts to curb the illegal drug trade and dismantle drug trafficking networks.
