Officials of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency attached to the Murtala Muhammed International Airport Lagos have arrested a 30-year- old man, Michael Orurno, with a kilogramme of methamphetamine during the outward screening of Egypt passengers en route to Malaysia.

PUNCH Metro learnt that the suspect concealed the drugs inside the pockets of three pairs of jeans found in his bag.

In his confessional statement, Orurno, who claimed to be unemployed, said he was lured into the act by yet-to-be-mentioned barons with a promise to be paid $3, 000 (about ₦488, 000) if the job was successfully done.

“I was to be paid $3,000 when I get to Malaysia with the drugs. I work as a labourer in Enugu State. I am single and searching for a job. I was excited when they offered to sponsor my trip to Malaysia and pay me the sum. This is my first time of coming to Lagos and they promised to assist me in securing a job in Malaysia. Unfortunately, the drug was found in my bag” he told investigators.

NDLEA Commander at the Lagos Airport, Mr. Hamza Umar, said the arrest was the product of a diligent search conducted by the NDLEA officials, adding that the drugs had been confirmed as methamphetamine.

“It took the diligent search by the officers during screening of passengers onboard to Malaysia to detect the drugs. The drug tested positive for methamphetamine and weighed one kilogramme. Six parcels of the drug were found in the pockets of three pairs of jean trousers inside a bag belonging to Orurno Osita Chukwu Michael. The case is under investigation,” Umar said.

The Chairman of the agency, Mr. Ahmadu Giade, said, “Members of the public should avoid being used by drug barons to smuggle drugs abroad. They use so many tricks such as promising job opportunities abroad and assuring them that they will not be caught.”
