The operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) have recorded multiple achievements. Principal among the recent breakthrough of NDLEA is the arrest of a 90-year-old retired soldier who supplies illicit drugs to bandits

Femi Babafemi, NDLEA spokesperson, said in a statement on Sunday,that the suspect, Usman Adamu, was arrested on August 3 in Mailalle, Sabon Birni LGA, Sokoto.

According to Babafemi, the suspect was caught with 5.1kg cannabis sativa at the time of his arrest.

Babafemi stated that a man identified as Anietie Okon Effiong who is also claimed to be a Pastor was also arrested in another operation. Aniete was arrested over links to three drums of crystal methamphetamine, locally called ‘mkpuru mmiri’, believed to have been imported from India.

“The consignment weighing 90 kilograms and loaded into a commercial bus with registration number RSH 691XC at Ojuelegba in Lagos was intercepted during a stop and search operation along Umuahia-Ikot Ekpene highway on Saturday 6th August 2022,” the statement reads.

“The dangerous drug packed 30kg in each drum was meant for Pastor Anietie Okon Effiong, who was arrested in a follow-up operation at Oron beach in Oron. The recovered Meth drums were meant for onward delivery to the Republic of Cameroon.

“This comes on the heels of four seizures of the same illicit substance weighing 4.074kg going to Australia, Indonesia and Philippines with a 3kg cannabis sativa heading to Dubai, United Arab Emirates at some courier companies in Lagos. The consignments were concealed in body cream, hot burner iron and beads.”

The third person, Solo Osamede, a 37-year-old indigene of Ovia LGA, Edo state, and resident in Italy, was arrested on July 30 at the Murtala Muhammed international airport, Lagos, for ingesting 41 wraps of heroin.
