The spokesperson for the agency, Femi Babafemi, in a statement on Sunday, said the suspects, including two ladies, were arrested last Friday.
He said, “The operatives stormed Akala, a notorious drug hub in the Mushin area of Lagos, arresting no fewer than 15 drug dealers, including two ladies, and seized 1,400 kilogrammes of cannabis sativa, among other illicit substances such as heroin, methamphetamine, and 320 bottles of codeine syrup, recovered from them on Friday, December 9.”
Babafemi noted that men of the NDLEA at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Ikeja, Lagos State, also intercepted parcels of cocaine concealed in different parts of a travel bag brought into Nigeria by a Brazil returnee, Nwadinobi Uchemadu, from Sao Paulo, via Doha on a Qatar Airways flight. He said Uchemadu was arrested on Monday, December 5, during inward clearance of passengers on the Qatar airways flight following the discovery of three parcels of cocaine weighing 2.70kg, factory sealed in parts of his travel bag.
