NDLEA Director, Media and Advocacy Femi Babafemi, in a statement in Abuja, explained that the operatives had continued their nationwide “offensive action” against drug traffickers in the past week.
He said the offensive had led to the seizing of hundreds of kilogrammes of illicit substances at the airports, courier firms, hideouts and the destruction of hectares of cannabis farms in remote forests.
According to him, attempts by a female passenger, Isesele Obehi, to export illicit drugs to Europe through the Murtala Mohammed International Airport, Lagos, was aborted. He added that one Emmanuel Omebere attempt at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, to also export illicit drugs was frustrated by narcotic officers who arrested him shortly before he boarded his flight.
The Spoikesman also said in the same vein, efforts by desperate traffickers to export varying sizes of consignments containing cocaine, heroin and other illicit drugs through courier firms were also foiled.
