Attempt by a human trafficker, Mathew Bassey, to export illicit drugs to Dubai, United Arab Emirate (UAE) by planting same in the luggage of an orphan, Ms Peter Gift Eno, recruited for a phantom job in the Arab nation has been thwarted by operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) at the Lagos Airport.
An NDLEA statement on Sunday said, Bassey was arrested on July 6 following the interception of Eno at the departure hall of the Lagos airport and that, when Eno’s luggage was searched, 50 parcels of cannabis (2.80kg) concealed in food items were discovered while there were discrepancies between the age she declared and the date of birth on her international passport.
Further interview revealed that the human trafficker who recruited and brought her to the airport, Mathew Bassey was still lurking around the airport, waiting for her departure. He was promptly tracked and arrested.
