The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has arrested a newlywed businessman, Lovely Chukwulobelu, over alleged plot to trafficking 72 wraps of ingested cocaine.
Chukwulobelu was apprehended barely a week after his marriage.
This was made known in a statement issued on Sunday by the NDLEA’s spokesperson, Femi Babafemi.
According to Babafemi, the 25-year-old newlywed businessman was apprehended by NDLEA operatives at the Akanu Ibiam International Airport (AIIA), Enugu, for attempting to traffic the wraps of cocaine which he ingested, to Portugal where he resides.
“The groom was intercepted by NDLEA officers at the departure hall of the Enugu airport on Thursday 25th September 2026, with cocaine in his gut and wedding ring on his finger, while he attempted to board an Ethiopian Airline flight to Portugal via Addis Ababa.
