Photos: 64yr -old Ghanaian woman sentenced to 27 months in prison for attemping to smuggle heroin into the U.S hidden in dry fish

A 64-year-old Ghanaian woman was convicted for attempting to smuggle drugs into the US and sentenced to twenty seven months in prison by a New York City court.
According to the New York Daily News, Rose Amanor was arrested at Kennedy Airport after disembarking on a flight from Amsterdam last year. The search revealed she was travelling with three kilograms of heroin stuffed inside a haul of dry fish. She claimed her son duped her into carrying the bag into the city.


 
Her lawyers begged for mercy citing her advanced age and poor health, requesting a short sentence so she could return to Africa. But Federal Judge Eric Vitaliano was not having it, saying she had told ‘incessant number of fishy stories'

"I find it totally incredible that Mrs. Amanor didn’t know what it was that she was doing, Judge Vitaliano said. "It certainly was a disrespect for the law, sitting in this courtroom and spinning this incredible tale under oath."
The judge pointed out that if Mrs Amour  had not been intercepted, the drugs would have wreaked havoc on young people.

In court, Amanor, who could almost certainly speak English, said she couldn’t, and requested a Twi translator. This was despite, as the Daily News put it: ‘that English is the national language of Ghana, and when she was arrested she was carrying two Bibles, a dietary nutrition plan, and other documents written in English, and had received numerous emails from her son written in English.’
Amanor begged the judge through the interpreter saying: "I am asking you to have mercy on me so I can go home to my family and enjoy whatever time I have left with my family
Amanor has served about 13 months since her arrest  and will be deported to Ghana after serving her sentence.

Buhari says Nigeria has joined the Islamic coalition against terror

President Buhari during his recent interview with
Al Jazeerah, said Nigeria has joined the Islamic
Coalition against terrorism being championed by
Saudi Arabia.
“We are part of it because we’ve got
terrorists in Nigeria that everybody knows
which claim that they are Islamic. So, if
there’s an Islamic coalition to fight
terrorism, Nigeria will be part of it
because we are casualties of Islamic
terrorism,” he said
When asked whether Nigeria joined the coalition
during his meeting with King Salman Bin Abdul-
Aziz of Saudi Arabia recently, Buhari said “yes.”
Buhari queried the position of some Christians
in Nigeria who have opposed Nigeria joining the
coalition. He wondered why such Christians had
not gone to fight Boko Haram in the North or
militants in the South.
“Why can’t those Christians that
complained go and fight terrorism in
Nigeria or fight the militancy in the
South. It’s Nigeria that matters, not the
opinion of some religious bigots,” he said
On whether he was trying to change the
religious identity of the country, Buhari noted:
“How can I change the religious identity of
Nigeria? No religion advocates hurting the
innocent and just because the Muslims are the
ones that claim to be Boko Haram and they are
killing innocent people whether in the church, in
the bus or in the market place, then I will just
sit and look at them because I too am a
Muslim? Islam is against injustice in any
form.”he said
