The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), Abia state command has arrested a drug lord identified as Chibuike Apollos, at his hideout in Mbausi, Isialangwa North LGA.
According to punch, spokesman for the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, Femi Babafemi, said in a statement that Apollos had been on the wanted list of the Abia State Command of the agency since February following the arrest of one Chima Ukeleonu, the suspect behind the viral video in January showing a young man hawking illicit drugs on the street.
The Commander, NDLEA, Abia State Command, Bamidele Akingbade, said, “The command had been on his trail since February this year.
However the suspect ran out of luck when the agency got a tip-off that he just received some quantities of cannabis from Edo State. Notwithstanding the tense security situation in the South-East, especially Abia state, the command still embarked on the operation, which culminated in the arrest of one Chibuike Apolos with 10 bags of cannabis weighing 100kg, 1.6 grams of cocaine, one gram of heroin and five grams of methamphetamine.
Following his arrest in the early hours of Wednesday, the Abia State Government has already marked his house that serves as his hideout for demolition,” Babafemi stated.
