The National Drug Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), Rivers Command, said it arrested two persons who allegedly tried to smuggle 115 kilogrammes of illicit drugs into the state.

The arrest of the suspects is contained in a statement signed by the agency’s spokesman in Rivers, Emmanuel Ogbumgbada, and made available to newsmen on Tuesday in Port Harcourt.

Ogbumgbada said operatives of the command arrested the suspects when they allegedly tried to smuggle about 200 blocks of compressed Cannabis Sativa weighing 115 kg stored inside five bags.



“The NDLEA Ahoada Area Command intercepted the contraband inside an ash-coloured Hyundai Sonata saloon car near the JTF checkpoint in Ahoada East Local Government Area of Rivers.

“Two suspects have been arrested in connection with the seizure.

“Preliminary investigation revealed that the suspects were moving the illicit substance from Edo state to Omoku area of Rivers State to supply to their customers,” he said.

Ogbumgbada said the suspects were currently being interrogated by NDLEA’s operatives and had already provided useful information.

We always only so slow to come to with reality. Legalizing marijuana is good thing. It does not mean that every one will begin to smoke it. It however means you can regulate it. As alcohol legal reach, no be every body Dey drink am...but it is taxable, every body benefits.

Omo this is the 2nd big burst by Ndlea in rivers m, No wonder my plug Doesn’t have his usual high grade Az... very sad

touch not my Igbo dealer and do my Igbo no harm...

Our dear NDLEA, how many people have been prosecute and jailed for drugs related crimes in Nig?

In abroad, Nigerians hv been sentenced to death & executed while many are awaiting trials...... Why is Nig. case different.

Drugs hv destroyed our youths.... Criminality have strived because of drugs.

It is high time government reviews it anti drug laws to meet the challenges of the new age. Enough of media trail
