Mr Ejimadu Uchechukwu Benjamin, 41 alongside a local woman have been apprehended in Thailand for allegedly being in possession of cocaine.
Wichai Chaimongkol, secretary-general of the Office of the Narcotics Control Board, said on Tuesday, June 22, that officials raided a postal service company on Monday and seized 390 grammes of cocaine hidden in mascara tubes sent from Costa Rica to Pathum Thani province.

She was suspected of being hired by the Nigerian national to receive the narcotic on his behalf.
