Justice Friday Ogazi of the Federal High Court sitting in Lagos has ordered the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency to produce Lagos social media influencer and businessman Kazeem Afolabi, popularly known as “KC Luxury”, before the court following his alleged 14-day detention without a formal charge.
The order was made on Thursday in an ex parte application filed by Afolabi through his counsel, A. Labi-Lawal, SAN, pursuant to the Fundamental Rights (Enforcement Procedure) Rules 2009.
The court also directed the NDLEA to respond within five days to the application challenging Afolabi’s continued detention and to show cause why he should not be released or admitted to bail.
Afolabi was allegedly arrested by NDLEA operatives on August 13, 2026, at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, while preparing to travel to Paris.
His father, Eric Afolabi, who deposed to the affidavit in support of the application, alleged that the applicant had remained in the custody of the NDLEA since his arrest without being informed of the offence for which he was arrested or being charged before a court of competent jurisdiction.
