The Federal High Court in Lagos issued an order on Thursday for the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) to produce social media influencer and businessman Kazeem Afolabi, known as "KC Luxury," before the court. The order follows Afolabi's claim of 14-day detention without a formal charge. The ruling came following an ex parte application submitted by Afolabi's lawyer, A. Labi-Lawal, SAN, pursuant to the Fundamental Rights (Enforcement Procedure) Rules 2009.
The court also instructed the NDLEA to respond within five days to the application challenging Afolabi's continued detention and to explain why he should not be released or granted bail. The application alleges that Afolabi was arrested at Murtala Muhammed International Airport on August 13, 2026, while preparing to travel to Paris.
His father, Eric Afolabi, testified that the NDLEA kept him in custody without informing him of the offense or charging him before a competent court. The court directed Afolabi to submit the motion, enrolled order, and other relevant processes within four working days. The agency was given five days to file its response and produce Afolabi for the next hearing date.
