The
35-year-old staff of Arik Air, who hails from Isialagwa North Local
Government Area, in Abia State, confessed that he receives N400,000 to
smuggle drugs into the Air-craft.
Vanguard reports that Oliver said “It was Chika that introduced me into the drug deal. Whenever Chika gives me the drug, I will hide it in catering supplies.”
Adding that “Chika
knows where to collect the drug inside the flight. They pay me N400,000
per bag. I was expecting N1.2 million for the three bags that I
smuggled into the aircraft.”
