The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has arrested a suspected drug dealer in a pentecostal church in Lagos.
NDLEA spokesman, Femi Babafemi made this known in a statement on Sunday.
He said NDLEA operatives trailed the suspect to Ojodu Berger in the Ikeja area of the state.
The suspect Stephen Afam Ikeanyionwu – had been on the wanted list of the anti-narcotics agency “for attempting to export 69.65 kilograms of cocaine, heroin, and cannabis to the United Kingdom through the NAHCO export shed of the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA)”.
His arrest followed the interception of a consignment of illicit drugs weighing 69.65kg going to the UK through the Lagos airport on August 12.
“The illegal baggage had been sent to the airport for export through a freight forwarding company, which in turn gave a driver to deliver at the NAHCO export shed,” the statement partly read.
