In a breakthrough against drug trafficking in Nigeria, operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency have dismantled a trans-border drug syndicate, arresting four suspects and seizing tramadol pills worth multi-million naira hidden in vehicle bumpers and false compartments.
According to a statement on Sunday by the agency’s spokesman, Femi Babafemi, the vehicle was intercepted along the Nasarawa-Toto Road in Keffi, Nasarawa State, at 6 a.m. on Tuesday, January 27, 2025.
He added that two suspects, Zahradeen Adamu, 27, and Abubakar Usman, 44, were arrested in the vehicle, which was travelling from Onitsha, Anambra State, to Yola, Adamawa State.
