The Bayelsa State Command of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency
says its operatives have arrested 14 suspected drug traffickers in
different parts of Yenagoa and its surrounding communities. The command also said it seized a total of 7.1499 kilogrammes of different narcotic drugs including cocaine.
The agency’s spokesman, Ikenna Osakwe, who made the revelation in a
statement on Thursday, said the feat was achieved in their operations in
January 2016.
Osakwe said worthy of note was the discovery of 4.9 grammes of
cocaine by operatives deceptively concealed inside a packed of a sealed
pharmaceutical product.
He said the hidden cocaine was discovered by operatives on a
motorised patrol along the East-West Road while being ferried to Port
Harcourt, Rivers State, in a branded commercial bus.
