The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has warned commercial drivers and other transport workers against accepting parcels whose contents they do not know, after a bus driver was nearly implicated in a dr¥g tr@fficking case.
The warning was contained in a statement published by the agency on Sunday, accompanied by videos showing operatives discovering ill#cit dr¥gs concealed inside a bottle of Fearless energy drink.
According to the NDLEA, the commercial bus driver had accepted the bottle as a waybill parcel in Lagos for delivery to Ondo State, believing it contained only an energy drink.
However, operatives discovered that the bottle had been used to conceal C@losand methamphetamine.
The agency said the driver spent some time in custody and could have ended up in jail over the dr¥gs found in the parcel.
He was eventually spared after NDLEA officers tracked and arrested the person who gave him the package.
