Nigerian Man, Boniface Emenike Arrested With Drugs Worth Over N6M In India

A Nigerian man, Boniface Emenike, has been arrested in Navi Mumbai, India, for drug peddling.

The 45-year-old was allegedly nabbed with 116 grams of mephedrone (MD) worth ₹11.6 lakh.

The suspect who neither had a valid passport nor a visa, was residing at Srikrupa Residency building in sector 2, Taloja, the outskirts of Navi Mumbai, Hindustan Times reported on Wednesday, May 3, 2023.

"Acting on a tip-off, we raided the flat of the accused,” said police inspector Basit Ali Sayyed from Anti Narcotics Cell (ANC).

“Emenike initially evaded us, however, later, he was nabbed from within the society. He came to India using a business visa for selling apparel and started peddling drugs. In 2022, the Thane police arrested him in Mumbra in a peddling case. A few months ago, he came out on bail and restarted peddling.”

“Though he claimed to run a clothes business, the police have not found any proof of it'', said the officer, adding, “Most of the foreign drug peddlers enter India on a business visa under the pretext of selling clothes.”

As per the police, during Emenike’s interrogation, he revealed that he received the drugs from another Nigerian national, identified as Ogbona Paul who was his roommate in the flat.

"Paul is on the run and we are trying to trace him. As of now, he could escape from the country and we suspect that he is still in the city,” Sayyed said.

“The owner of the flat had followed the protocol while renting out his flat. He had informed the local police about the stay of a foreign national at his flat. We would also be interrogating the owner of the flat to get more information."

When people who lack sense talk you easily would know........

Your problem is that you are a tribal bigot..... period.

Any body who contests for public office deserves to be scrutinized and if found wanting in any area may be considered ineligible irrespective of tribe , religion or creed.

If anyone is found culpable in acting against the Laws of the land then the due process has to be followed .............you cannot tell your parents or anyone for instance that he or she has no right to question your integrity when you are vying for public office no matter who , even if the person is guilty of your same offence , the law also would not allow him to occupy public office if he seeks to.
