Court remands influencer KC Luxury, two others over cocaine trafficking

The Federal High Court in Lagos has remanded luxury goods dealer and lifestyle influencer KC Luxury, along with two others, on charges of cocaine trafficking and attempted export. The trio, Afolabi Kazeem Michael, Boniface Freeman Ochoche Sule, and Ikechukwu Ekugo Patriarch, are accused of conspiring to export 184.5 kilograms of cocaine valued at approximately N39 billion to the United Kingdom.

The case, which began on July 28, 2026, alleges that the defendants conspired with two additional suspects arrested in London, Atandare Oladipupo Oluwarotimi and Latifat Yusuf, to carry out the illegal operation. The defendants pleaded not guilty to all charges, and the court ordered their remand pending trial due to the gravity of the alleged offenses.
