Highlighting the risk, the NDLEA warned, “Drug concealments NDLEA Nigeria officers find these days are enough to make you suspect ANYONE asking you to deliver a package when traveling or clear/collect anything from abroad at any logistics or courier service.”
The video of the Lagos operation reveals the sophistication traffickers employ, embedding narcotics in everyday items to bypass security checks.
These discoveries further reiterate the vigilance and expertise of NDLEA officers who are working tirelessly to curb drug trafficking in the country.
The NDLEA continues to advise Nigerians to be cautious when handling parcels for others, especially at airports or courier services, to avoid being unwittingly involved in criminal activities.
The agency ongoing efforts highlight that drug concealment tactics are becoming more deceptive, making awareness and caution critical in the fight against drug trafficking
