BREAKING: Billionaire Drug Baron, Two Female Kingpins of Igbo Descent Fall in Global Sting Operation

May 7, 2026 1 min read

NDLEA operatives, in coordination with the US-DEA and European partners, have arrested billionaire drug baron Amadi Simon in Switzerland, along with two female kingpins – Jecinta Amara Ikechi in Anambra and Blessing Ngozi Amadi in Agbor, Delta State. All three are of Igbo descent.

Three hotels in Delta and Abuja linked to the syndicate have been traced as proceeds of illicit drug funds. NDLEA Chairman Marwa warned that Nigeria will not be a sanctuary for drug cartels.
