32-Year-Old Woman Caught With Methamphetamine On Board Flight From Malaysia

32-year-old Chizoba Anya Vivian was caught with banned substance on-board a Qatar Airline flight from Malaysia.

Chizoba was said to have aroused suspicion following her frequent visit to the toilet. On arrival at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport, Lagos, three wraps of methamphetamine were found in her possession.

The NDLEA commander at Lagos Airport, Mr. Hamza Umar, said the suspect excreted two additional wraps of the dangerous drug while under their observation. His words: "The suspect was found with three wraps which she excreted in the aircraft. While she was under observation at the Lagos airport, she excreted two additional wraps of drugs.

The five wraps which tested positive for methamphetamine weighed 80 grammes."Preliminary investigation also revealed that the suspect left Ghana where she ingested the drugs to Malaysia. In Malaysia, she was denied entry and made to board another flight back to Nigeria. She started excreting the drugs at the airport in Malaysia. The suspect said she was offered N500,000m to smuggle the drugs to Malaysia.

"I was promised the sum of half a million naira but my problem started when I had immigration problem in Malaysia. I was denied entry and made to return to Nigeria after two days. While in the aircraft, I excreted three wraps and two other wraps in the NDLEA office," Vivian said. Vivian hails from Onitsha in Anambra State. She will be charged to court.
