OMG!! Woman vomits cocaine at Abuja airport

A 48- year-old mother of three children, Mrs.
Saidat Bola Hassan, has been arrested by
operatives of the National Drug Law
Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) at the Nnamdi
Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, after she
allegedly vomited 15 wraps of white powdery
substances that tested positive for cocaine.
The incident occurred during screening of
passengers on an Egypt Airline flight to Jedda,
Saudi Arabia, en-route Cairo.
After she vomited the substances, the woman
was apprehended by NDLEA officials who
discovered that she had ingested 80 wraps of
cocaine weighing 904 grammes.
The NDLEA commander at the airport, Mr.
Hamisu Lawan, said efforts were made to
protect her from any harm arising from drug
ingestion.
“As soon as we discovered that the suspected
wraps she vomited tested positive for cocaine,
we took measures to ensure her safety by
preventing any harm that may result from
drug ingestion. While under observation, she
excreted 65 similar wraps. In all, she ingested
80 wraps of cocaine weighing 904 grammes.
Her case is under investigation,” Hamisu
stated.
