Court finds Ebuka Titus and Kanu Arinze 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.
