The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) says its operatives have busted a trans-border drug trafficking syndicate, arresting four suspected members and seizing 190,960 pills of tramadol.
The agency disclosed that its Directorate of Intelligence had been tracking the cartel for weeks before launching a coordinated operation.
In a statement on Sunday, Femi Babafemi, NDLEA spokesperson, said the bust operations led to the recovery of the multi-million-naira worth of tramadol pills concealed in the bumper and false bottom of Sienna buses heading to border towns.
