Okorom Lynette, who sells in the Ajangbadi
area of Lagos was recently arrested by NDLEA
officials with 685 grammes of cocaine
concealed in her vagina.
Chinelo was discovered with the illegal drug
tucked in her vagina during the inward
screening of passengers that arrived at the
Murtala Mohammed International Airport
on an Ethiopian flight from Addis Abba.
In her confessional statement, Chinelo said
she was lured and deceived to do it
"I am a food vendor at Ajangbadi, Lagos
and have never been involved in crime. I
am a victim of man's cruelty to man. My
husband abandoned me with four
children two years ago. I work hard to
pay their fees and ensure their proper
upkeep. The last straw that devastated
me was when the landlord forcefully
ejected me. I had nowhere to turn to for
solace. I was crying like a baby when a
man came to console me. I have never
met him in my life. He asked me to wipe
my tears and promised to introduce me
to importation business. I felt he was
God sent until he sponsored my trip to
Addis Ababa. When I got to Ethiopia, he
told me to take cocaine to Nigeria.
Initially I disagreed but he threatened to
recover his investment at all cost," She
was quoted as saying.
NDLEA chairman Ahmadu Giade confirmed
the incident and asked members of the public
to be wise and careful about the
deceptive ways of drug dealers.
