Businesswoman Caught with Tramadol in Fake Baby Bump at Nigeria BorderFebruary 22, 2026 9:28 PM Full SummaryOn February 16, 2026, Rabi Muhammad from Kano was arrested while trying to smuggle the opioids to Cotonou, Benin Republic, using the creative fake bump tactic. Videos show officers in pink uniforms carefully removing the device in a search room, as she stood dressed in traditional attire. The bust was part of a busy week for NDLEA, including an Ivorian man excreting cocaine at Kano airport, a real estate CEO with 89 kilograms of cannabis in Lagos, and raids across several states that nabbed hundreds more kilograms of drugs— even a 68-year-old grandmother in Edo. Chairman Brig. Gen. Mohamed Buba Marwa praised the team's vigilance against these evolving smuggling plots. Key TakeawayNDLEA officers at Lagos' Seme border spotted a suspicious protruding belly on a 35-year-old businesswoman heading to Benin.
