In a significant breakthrough, operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) have apprehended a 32-year-old Nigerien national for possession of illegal drugs. The arrest took place on Saturday, June 8, 2024, along the Kalgo-Birnin Kebbi road.
According to a statement issued by the agency's Director of Media & Advocacy, Femi Babafemi, the suspect, identified as Hassan Mummuni, was found in possession of a substantial quantity of illicit substances. Among the confiscated items were 4,000 pills of diazepam and 1.250kg of cannabis.
What makes this seizure particularly notable is the concealment method employed by the perpetrator. The illegal drugs were cleverly hidden within four pesticide tanks, suggesting a deliberate attempt to evade detection by law enforcement authorities.
The swift and decisive action of the NDLEA underscores the agency's commitment to combating drug trafficking and abuse within the country. By intercepting such illicit activities, law enforcement agencies play a crucial role in safeguarding communities and preventing the proliferation of harmful substances.
As investigations into the matter continue, authorities remain vigilant in their efforts to dismantle drug trafficking networks and hold perpetrators accountable for their actions. The arrest of Hassan Mummuni serves as a stark reminder that individuals involved in drug smuggling will face the full force of the law, regardless of their nationality or the methods they employ to conceal their illicit activities.
