By Kingsley Omonobi The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has arrested two Europe-based Nigerian businessmen who allegedly ingested 200 wraps of cocaine in an attempt to smuggle the drugs from Abuja to Paris, France.
The NDLEA disclosed that the two suspects, Aliocus Godian Odife and Sam Blackborn, were intercepted on Wednesday, October 28, 2026, during the outward clearance of an Air France flight, AF 832, from Abuja to Paris at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport.
According to the agency, the suspects excreted a combined 200 wraps of cocaine weighing 3.460 kilogrammes. Odife, who reportedly lives in France and works in a factory, had arrived in Nigeria on October 21 for a short holiday but was arrested while attempting to return to Europe. A body scan conducted by NDLEA operatives revealed foreign objects in his stomach, prompting his arrest. During interrogation, he reportedly admitted to ingesting 110 pellets of cocaine.
