NDLEA ARREST TEN ONLINE DRUG TRAFFICKERS IN ABUJA
The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has arrested ten suspected online drug traffickers operating in Abuja.
In a statement by the agency’s spokesman, the suspects were arrested after an undercover operation last week.
One of the arrested suspects, Ese Patrick, is a suspected illicit drug cartel on Instagram.
Patrick, 28, was nabbed alongside her boyfriend as they brought deliveries for undercover NDLEA operatives who had ordered the drugs online.
The NDLEA subsequently raided Patrick’s residence and confiscated 400 grams of Arizona weed, which she allegedly uses in baking the brownies.
Peter Nkejika, another suspect, was also apprehended on May 24 after his despatch rider was picked up with “N510,000 worth of Loud”, a highly psychoactive variant of cannabis.
Also arrested, among others, is a certain Dolapo Benjamin, said to be the owner of five motorcycles allegedly used in distributing the drugs.
