Nigerian Man Sentenced to 263 Years in U.S Prison for Drug Dealing/Money Laundering
A 53-year-old U.S-based Nigerian man has
been sentenced to 263 years in prison for drugs and weapons
distribution/sales and money laundering.
The man, Felix Okafor, who migrated to the U.S in 1981, was sentenced on April 10, Punch reports.
According to reports, Okafor purchased a
convenience store in Benson, North Carolina, called “Flying Eagles
Groceries,” which he ran himself. However, it was discovered that the
store was just a cover-up for his illegal activities.
Residents became suspicious of Okafor over time, because he didn’t seem to care about his supposed business.
