family. He told RadarOnline: “But you know what, they are my kids. They grew up in my house.”

During preliminary investigation, NDLEA Airport Commander, Hamza Umar, said the Aba-based businessman was discovered to be travelling to Bujumbura, Burundi.
In his confessional statement, the suspect said: “I am a patent medicine dealer in Aba, Abia State. My arrest is very unfortunate because I am a hardworking person. “I was deceived into drug trafficking because I was desperate to perform my marriage ceremony by the end of the year. “I was optimistic that I will not be arrested, but things did not go according to my expectation.
“What must I do to set myself free from this predicament?” he asked, begging not to be allowed to be confined until his proposed wedding.
Reacting to the arrest, Chief Executive of the anti-narcotic agency, Ahmadu Giade, said: “The arrest of Chike will serve as a warning to others that they will ultimately be caught with drugs and prosecuted. “It does not matter if the trafficker is going to other African countries or outside the continent; we are prepared to intercept all drugs. “I urge members of the public to support the agency’s drug control efforts.”

‘I see Anaconda as a normal video’ – Nicki Minaj
However, Nicki insists she is bemused by the outrage her video caused, insisting it depicts nothing more shocking than the dancing that would happen at a girls’ slumber party.
Speaking to the new US edition of GQ magazine about ‘Anaconda’, she said: ‘I don’t know what there is to really talk about. I’m being serious. I just see the video as being a normal video.
‘I think the video is about what girls do. Girls love being with other girls, and when you go back to us being younger, we would have slumber parties and we’d be dancing with our friends.’
The hit maker also claims one suggestive scene showing her with a banana is actually a reference to female empowerment.
Referring to the scene, she explained:
‘It’s just cheeky, like a funny story. I’m chopping up the banana. Did you realise that? At first I’m being sexual with the banana, and then it’s like, ‘Ha- ha, no.’ ‘That was important for us to show in the kitchen scene, because it’s always about the female taking back the power. If you want to be flirty and funny that’s fine, but always keeping the power and the control in everything.’
