A 36year old Chinelo Okorom Lynnette, the law has caught up with her, after she excreted 685 grammes of cocaine, which she had hidden inside her vagina!
Chinelo, who is a food vendor was caught at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport after she raised suspicion during questioning during the inward screening of passengers on an Ethiopian airline flight from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia to Nigeria. This resulted in her arrest by members of Nigerian Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA).
She claimed hardship had pushed her into the act, as she could no longer take care of her four children her husband abandoned for her and she was also forcefully ejected from the house they lived. Narrating how she met the man she now works for, she said after her landlord forcefully ejected her, she had nowhere to go, and suddenly met this man. In her own words;“I had nowhere to turn to for solace. I was crying like a baby when a man came to console me. I have never met him in my life. He asked me to wipe my tears and promised to introduce me to importation business. I felt he was God sent until he sponsored my trip to Addis Ababa. When I got to Ethiopia, he told me to take cocaine to Nigeria. Initially I disagreed but he threatened to recover his investment at all cost. I have never met him in my life.”
