The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has arrested Nnaji Juliet Ijeoma at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA) in Lagos on Friday, October 21.
The 30-year-old was detained after white powdery substance tested positive for cocaine was found hidden inside her bra during the screening of South African Airways.
Ms Ijeoma, who tried to smuggle the drugs from Brazil, confessed that her sponsors promised her N1 million for successful delivery to Nigeria.
Mr Mitchell Ofoyeju, the NDLEA spokesman, reported that there was 535 grams of cocain in the woman’s bra. The suspect hails from Enugu state but currently lives in Brazil and has a national diploma in mass communication.
Ms Ijeoma would be taken to court for prosecution. Meanwhile, the agency launched an investigation to uncover the syndicate working with internationald drug trafficking organisations in Brazil.
