The identities of the two suspected foreign drug barons involved in a drug case associated with an embattled Super Cop, DCP Abba Kyari, have been revealed.

Naija News reports that the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) had on Monday indicted the former IRT leader in the trafficking of cocaine, which subsequently led to his arrest by the police.

In a statement on Monday evening, Police Deputy Spokesman, CSP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, disclosed that the names of the suspected drug lords as Chibunna Patrick Umeibe and Emeka Alphonsus.

Adejobi said the two drug barons were arrested at Akanu Ibiam International Airport, Enugu on the 19th of January, 2022 upon their arrival from Addis Ababa aboard an Ethiopian Airlines.

The police deputy spokesman added that the arrest led to the recovery of a substantial quantity of powdery substance suspected to be cocaine from the two narcotic couriers.

He, however, stated that the arrest which was intelligence-driven was undertaken by a Unit of the Police Intelligence Response Team (IRT).
