NDLEA Warns: Verify All Foreign Packages to Avoid Drug Conspiracy Charges
The NDLEA has cautioned Nigerians against accepting packages from abroad without knowing every item inside. Spokesperson Femi Babafemi explained that some drug traffickers abroad hide illicit substances in consignments and designate unsuspecting friends or family members here as receivers. Babafemi advised anyone asked to receive cargo on another’s behalf to insist on a recorded video call during packaging. He warned that accepting unknown shipments could lead to criminal liability for possession and conspiracy, with possible jail time. In a recent operation, NDLEA officers discovered illegal drugs concealed in imported snack packs. Nigerians are urged to share this warning to protect loved ones from falling victim to such schemes.
