Do these stupid Nigerians ever learn....This get rich or die trying syndrome is really killing our youths all because of this useless so called politicians making life terrible at home but its not an excuse to engage in illegal drug trafficking. Despite the harsh environment at home some honest youths still are able to make a living.
Nigerians abroad should stop disgracing the Nigerian people at home.Why this desperation to get rich by all means.I hope other Nigerians who are planning to embark on trips like this will learn from this. 

KUALA LUMPUR: Three Nigerian college students were sentenced to death by a High Court here for trafficking 1008.3gm of methamphetamine two years ago.

Justice Kamardin Hashim made the decision after the defence failed to raise doubt against Chigozie Patrick Umeohudo, 26, Nnaemeka Nwafor, 25, and Chibuike Collions Nnebedum, 24, by end of defence case.

"I find that the testimonies by the defence could not be trusted, a mere denial and purely fictitious.

"The court finds that you are guilty and therefore, I sentence you to death," he said.

The accused were charged with trafficking at Jalan 4/40 in Taman Sri Segambut here at about 5.30pm on June 10, 2011.

In pleading for leniency, Chigozie and Chibuike's counsel Rajpal Singh said his clients had no previous conviction and came to Malaysia as students.

During the trial, it was revealed that the drugs were found in a biscuit tin.
