Ex-Okada Rider Caught Excreting 100 Meth Wraps at Lagos Airport

Ex-Okada Rider Caught Excreting 100 Meth Wraps at Lagos Airport

The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency arrested a former okada rider at Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos. He had ingested 100 wraps of methamphetamine in Uganda. The suspect spent 15 years working as a commercial motorcyclist before joining a transnational drug syndicate to boost his income. Intelligence leads and surveillance guided operatives to his arrest. Under observation by NDLEA officers, he excreted all 100 consignments. The agency said his plan for a quick financial upgrade ended in arrest and ‘‘premium tears.’’

It's surprising he worked fifteen years as an okada rider before moving into transnational drug smuggling.

I'm not convinced this case really reflects rising drug trafficking among ex-transport workers.

Authorities should intensify routine health screenings at airports to detect swallowed drug parcels early.
