Operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency have countered attempts by drug cartels to capitalise on recent protests to expand their activities.
Femi Babafemi, the agency’s director of media and advocacy, revealed this in videos that were posted on X.com on Sunday.
Babafemi claimed that the cartels intended to use the demonstrations as an opportunity to relocate their “markets” by air, sea, and land.
But NDLEA agents were closing in, equipped with personnel, intelligence, state-of-the-art equipment, and sniffer dogs.
Sharing videos, he wrote, “The drug cartels thought they could take advantage of the protests to quickly move their ‘markets’ from all fronts: land, sea and air but #ndlea_nigeria confronted them in equal measure with personnel, intelligence, technology and sniffer dogs. Here are some of the results.”
