NIPOST denies drug trafficking claims
The Nigerian Postal Services (NIPOST) has distanced itself from the alleged involvement in drug trafficking through courier services.
It tagged as “misleading” the recent publication by a media outlet, titled “Nigerian courier services easily transporting hard drugs since Tinubu became President – NIPOST.”
In a statement yesterday by Director, Corporate Communications, Franklin Alao, the agency expressed disappointment at the headline, adding that at no point has it endorsed such a position.
“NIPOST expresses deep disappointment at the misleading headline, which falsely attributes these allegations to NIPOST and creates the unfortunate impression that the agency either confirmed or endorsed such a position. This is categorically false.
At no point has NIPOST made such a statement or associated these activities with the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu,” Alao stated.
