On Tuesday, the Federal High Court in Lagos dismissed the bail applications of businessman Afolabi Michael Kazeem, widely known as KC Luxury, and two other alleged co-conspirators in a 22-count cocaine trafficking case. The trio appeared before Justice Musa Kakaki, who declined to release them on bail due to the seriousness of the charges and the possibility that they might flee if freed.
The defendants pleaded not guilty to the charges, which included conspiracy, cocaine trafficking, and money laundering. They were accused of attempting to export 184.5 kilograms of cocaine in five consignments to London. Justice Kakaki adjourned the case until November 2-5 for a trial, and KC Luxury and the other defendants were remanded in the custody of the Nigerian Correctional Service.
The charges alleged that the defendants conspired to export the cocaine between July 28 and August 1, 2026, and that KC Luxury had allegedly paid N13.2 million to facilitate the shipment.
