A Federal High Court sitting in Lagos has convicted and sentenced a 41-year-old Canadian woman, Adrienne Munju, to 11 years in prison for importing 74 parcels of “Canadian Loud,” a potent strain of synthetic cannabis, weighing 35.20 kilograms into Nigeria.

The spokesman for the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, Femi Babafemi, in a statement on Wednesday, said Munju’s conviction followed her arraignment on a two-count charge before Justice Dehinde Dipeolu.

The NDLEA had arrested her at Terminal 1 of Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Ikeja, Lagos, on Thursday, October 3, 2024, during the inward clearance of passengers on a KLM flight at the ‘D’ Arrival Hall of the airport.

Munju, in her post-arrest statement, confessed that she was recruited to traffic the illicit consignment through an online platform for a payment of 10,000 Canadian dollars upon successful delivery in Lagos.

Upon her guilty plea to the charges brought against her by the NDLEA, Justice Dipeolu convicted and sentenced Munju.

The Chairman/Chief Executive Officer of NDLEA, Mohamed Marwa applauded the NDLEA officers involved in the case and the judiciary for the swift adjudication.

According to him, the conviction serves as a strong warning to foreigners and others contemplating to smuggle illicit drugs into Nigeria.
