  • PublishedApril 13, 2025

The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has arrested a former convict who previously served jail time in an Asian country for drug trafficking, over a fresh attempt to smuggle crystal methamphetamine concealed in loudspeakers.

The agency disclosed this in a statement shared on Sunday by its Director of Media and Advocacy, Femi Babafemi, via his official X (formerly Twitter) handle.

Sharing a video of the seized items, the NDLEA wrote, “Narco-trend update: From being convicted and jailed in Asia for drug offences to being a trans-border trafficker back home.

“This is the story of the brain behind the concealment in this video as uncovered by #ndlea_nigeria officers. What a recidivist!”
