The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency has issued a warning to travelers not to fly with any luggage whose contents they do not know.
The information was given on Sunday by the agency’s Director of Media and Advocacy, Femi Babafemi, via his X account.
Babafemi said that two students—one of whom was a PhD student—had problems when bottles of codeine syrup were found in baggage they were transporting for a female friend who was studying overseas.
According to the statement, “A PhD student and another student studying abroad got into custody because bottles of codeine syrup were found in the luggage they picked for their female friend abroad.”
The message went on to say that had #ndlea_nigeria not pushed so hard to have the owner placed on the next flight home, they would have been put in jail.
He said that this is the reason they advise against carrying any bags whose contents they are unsure of.
