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
