Operatives of National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) have intercepted cocaine concealed in prayer beads and locally made shoes.
Spokesman of NDLEA, Femi Babafemi disclosed this in a statement posted on X.
Babafemi noted that some suspects were arrested by the anti-narcotics agency while trying to transport the illicit substances to the Holy Land.
He said, “In this holy month, when people are consecrating themselves and making supplications to their God, some persons were preoccupied with concealing cocaine in prayer beads and locally made shoes to desecrate the precincts of the holy land in the holy month.”
“They were, however, intercepted by #ndlea_nigeria officers as shown by the attached pictures.”
