According to a statement issued on Monday by the Edo State NDLEA Commander, Mitchell Ofoyeju, the operation was carried out at a residential building along Sapele Road following credible intelligence on suspected drug trafficking activities. The suspects, identified as Christian Chukwuka, 32, and his wife, Nwanneka Christian, 33, both from Ndokwa in Delta State, were arrested during the raid. NDLEA operatives recovered 22 bags of skunk cannabis weighing 219.5 kilograms and compressed blocks of Canadian Loud, a potent cannabis product, weighing 192.67 kilograms, bringing the total quantity of drugs seized to 412.17 kilograms. Describing the operation as a major breakthrough in the agency’s fight against drug trafficking, Ofoyeju reaffirmed the NDLEA’s commitment to dismantling drug networks and protecting communities from the dangers of illicit drugs. “Our efforts to combat drug trafficking remain unwavering. We will thoroughly investigate this case and ensure that justice is served,” Ofoyeju said. Speaking after his arrest, Christian Chukwuka blamed his alleged involvement in drug trafficking on financial hardship and unemployment. “I am a secondary school graduate and a truck driver, but joblessness made a friend introduce me to drug trafficking. My wife and I have twins to cater for, and the financial pressure was too much. If given another chance, I will not go back to drugs,” he said. The NDLEA said investigations are ongoing, and the suspects will be charged to court upon the conclusion of the probe. The agency described the seizure as one of its largest drug interceptions in Edo State this year. Geely, Ford Join Forces To Build Electric SUVs In Spain, Develop New Model For Europe
