Court finds two Nigerians guilty of drug trafficking

A JKIA court on Thursday, September 19, ordered two Nigerians, Ebuka Titus and Kanu Arinze, to pay Sh30 million or serve one year in jail after being found guilty of trafficking narcotics.

Additionally, the court mandated that Titus and Arinze be repatriated to their country of origin upon completing their sentences or paying the fine.

The two were arrested in March, and 39.04 grams of heroin and 25.71 grams of cannabis were recovered from their homes.

In its ruling, the JKIA court also ordered the destruction of the narcotic drugs.
