The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency has intercepted attempts to smuggle illicit drugs to the United Kingdom, uncovering them concealed in packages of tiger nuts and sacks of groundnuts.
NDLEA Director of Media and Advocacy, Femi Babafemi, shared footage of the discovery on X.com on Sunday, emphasizing the need for vigilance when handling packages.
“Once again, never accept any package on your journey, no matter how genuine it looks, without a thorough search,” Babafemi advised.
The videos show NDLEA operatives unearthing drugs hidden within the parcels, underscoring Babafemi’s warning about the risks of transporting seemingly innocuous items. “These videos… reinforce this warning,” he added.
