Two students, including a PhD student, ran into trouble as bottles of codeine syrup were found in the luggage they were carrying for a female friend studying abroad.
The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA through the Director of Media and Advocacy, Femi Babafemi confirmed the incident via his X handle on Sunday.
He stated, “A PhD student and another student studying abroad got into custody because bottles of codeine syrup were found in the luggage they picked for their female friend abroad.
“They’d have been jail if @ndlea_nigeria had not worked hard to ensure the owner was put on the next flight home.
Babafemi warned travellers not to accept luggage from people without knowing its content.
“Reason why we warn you not to take any luggage you don’t know its content from anyone.”
He also shared a video showing how bags of opioids were concealed among spare parts coming from Onitsha heading to Mubi in Adamawa.
