NDLEA Busts 306 Suspects, Dismantles Meth Lab in Ogun State
Between January and May this year, NDLEA operatives in Ogun State arrested 306 suspected drug offenders. They also uncovered and dismantled a secret methamphetamine production lab. The agency’s commander reported that 272 men and 34 women were arrested. Of those, 140 individuals—136 men and four women—received counselling and rehabilitation support. Seized drugs included 2,518kg of cannabis, 86.74kg of methamphetamine, various quantities of cocaine and tramadol, 44.9 litres of codeine, and other illicit substances. Last year, the command arrested 771 suspects and confiscated even larger volumes of these narcotics. Authorities warned that traffickers now set up local labs and urged communities to report unusual chemical odours or excessive generator use. Ogun’s first lady also called on parents to monitor their children and support ongoing anti-drug efforts.
