Nigerian ex-beauty Queen wanted for alleged drug trafficking; raid uncovers significant haul

Nigerian authorities are on the lookout for Aderinoye Queen Christmas, former Miss Commonwealth Nigeria Culture 2015/2016, also known as Queen Oluwadamilola Aderinoye, after her alleged involvement in drug trafficking.

The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) conducted a raid at her Lagos residence last week based on credible intelligence.

The operation revealed 606 grams of Canadian Loud, a synthetic cannabis strain, an electronic weighing scale, and substantial quantities of drug packaging materials.

Christmas, founder of the Queen Christmas Foundation, has yet to respond to the accusations.

In a related incident, another suspect returning from Brazil was apprehended at Murtala Muhammed International Airport with 60 big wraps of cocaine ingested.
