A 38 year old mother of three, Rashidat Abdulkarim, who was arrested by
officials of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency for attempting to
export 2.04kg of cannabis to South Africa has accused her husband of
setting her up.
According to The Nation, the dried weed found in her luggage at the
cargo section of Nigerian Aviation Handling Company, tested positive for
cannabis and was concealed in cartons of seasoning cubes.
Rashidat, who sells female shoes and hand bags said
that she is still in deep shock that cannabis was found in the parcel
her husband told her to collect from a man which she was supposed to
deliver to him when she gets to South Africa
“I am in shock and pained that my husband is behind my problem. My
husband sent twenty-eight thousand naira to buy locally made textiles.
He also told me that one man will bring food seasoning and herbal
medicines to me. I bought the textiles and added it to the seasoning
bought by the man. On getting to the airport, drug was found inside the
carton of seasoning. I am so sad and disappointed. I struggle to fend
for myself and my three children. Even before my husband traveled to
South Africa, he left me with the upkeep of the family. I have suffered
so much financial neglect. I have never smuggled drugs all my life. He
had done the worst. My eldest child is only thirteen years”she said
