The Federal High Court in Kano is set
to commence the trial of a thirty year old woman who was caught planting
cocaine in a pastor’s house by officials of the National Drug Law
Enforcement Agency (NDLEA).
According to the NDLEA Kano State
Commander, Mr. Hamza Umar, preliminary investigation revealed that the
accused Mrs. Joy Ogundare who lives in the same compound with Pastor
Richard Ekenne was caught red-handed planting 2.2grams of cocaine in the
apartment of Richard.
The
accused in her statement explained that she wanted to implicate Pastor
Richard because of the misunderstanding between her and the Pastor.
“I am not in good terms with Pastor
Richard. We even have a pending case at the Magistrate Court here in
Kano. That was why I wanted to plant cocaine in his apartment to
implicate him but I was caught in the process by NDLEA Officers,” she
stated.
