38-year old Anambra-born alleged drug smuggler, Jude
Izuchukwu was arrested this week at Murtala Muhammed International Airport in
Lagos by officials of NDLEA while attempting to board an Ethiopian flight to
China. Jude was caught with 9.375kg of cannabis concealed in dried
fish, dried bitter leaf, crayfish, melon and other local food spices he was
travelling with.
He blamed his involvement with drugs on poverty and said he
had no choice but to join the trade since his clothes shop on Lagos Island
packed up after he was duped of N5 million. He also said he and his family have
been living from hand to mouth since then.
