The Nigerians Are On The Game Again

Security personnel attached at the Lungi International Airport have arrested a Nigerian national by the name of Elizabeth Olufumi Layo Ogbebor, with a quantity of white substance, suspected to be cocaine.

Making the revelation to newsmen at the bi-weekly Police Press Conference on Tuesday 15th May 2007, the Assistant Inspector General of Police, Richard Moigbeh, who is in charge of operations, said the Nigerian woman was arrested about 20:15 hours on Monday 14th May 2007, when she was trying to board the 5W 072 Astreaus Airline en route to London.
