Victor

A suspected drug trafficker has told officials of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) why he packed drugs worth over N2 million inside his music player. 
The suspect, Nwachukwu Nwadi Victor 45, a factory worker in Brazil, was angry that despite all the pains he took in hiding the drug, NDLEA operatives still discovered it.

Victor, who was among four persons arrested by NDLEA, said he would have made 300 per cent profit if he had been able to get the drugs to his destination. Victor said he bought the drugs for $10,000 in Brazil.
He said: “I had family problem in Nigeria to settle so I decided to buy cocaine with $10,000. I would have made over 300 per cent profit if I had succeeded in bringing the drugs. The drug was packed inside a music player, yet the officers detected it.” The other three suspects are Okafor Chidinnma Deborah, 30, Utobo Prince Davies Chidiebere, 33, and Celestine Okoye Ugochukwu, 40. Deborah, a professional dancer and Chidiebere were arrested on their way to Malaysia, a country where Nigerians found with drugs are executed. Victor and Ugochukwu were arrested while returning from Brazil.
The Head, Media and Publicity, NDLEA, Mitchel Ofoyeju, said that anti-narcotic officers at the Akanu Ibiam International Airport (AIIA), Enugu, apprehended the four suspects in connection with unlawful importation and exportation of illicit drugs that tested positive for cocaine, amphetamine and cannabis with a total weight of 25.25kg.
He said: “Okafor Chidimma Deborah, a professional dancer, was going to Malaysia with 3.450kg of amphetamine hidden in jeans trousers while Chidiebere, a trader, was found with 17.800kg of cannabis hidden inside bitter leaf on his way to China.
“The remaining two suspects were arrested while returning from Brazil. Victor was found with 2.200kg of cocaine hidden inside a music player and Ugochukwu hid 800 grams of cocaine inside the handle of his luggage.” The NDLEA Commander at the Enugu airport, Nsikak-Abasi Udoh, said that all four arrests were made during routine checks.
